Geocache Description:

PairOpiles #3, flat, temp parking in turn-around area.


Can you believe this? We sent an expedition into the interior of Victoria Grove between the 2 documented PairOpiles and you'll never guess what we discovered! We discovered more unique geological structures. It appears now that there was a series of uplifts during the last seismic disturbance and another exposure of metamorphic rock in sedimentary fashion taking monumental form was identified. At this point, I can only anticipate finding more, as all appear to have remarkable resemblance to each other. This set of structures is located off Blackburn.

If you check the strata layers carefully, you will find some unsecured rock. One section of the layering on the sidewalk face has a flat stone worth inspecting. You will find it on the back side as you face the sidewalk side panel, about chin level (6'). Unlike all the others, it doesn’t fit the typical types and to my knowledge is like PairOpiles (1) still undefined. Please be cautious in your exploration, no permits for climbing these structures are yet available. Talus slopes and loose rocks can be dangerous to hikers below.

Lastly, as stated in the previous PairOpiles, please be aware of the local inhabitants who tend to demonstrate possessive rights over these monuments. Take all effort to leave their rocks as you found them.
