Conglomerate

This rock was recently broken out of bedrock at the base of Gavan Hill. The rock moving looks like the early stages of a new neighborhood. It looks to me like this rock at some point in the long past was part of a beach or riverbed before it was all fused together with mud or sand and hardened.

Location: Indian River Valley near Sitka, Alaska

Previous: Cutting into Gavan Hill
Next: Dead Cedar
