Event Details
Near Butte Montana, some very special stones exist. Part of the edge of the
Boulder Batholith, and found in a large jumbled pile of boulders, the
rocks in this unique geologic formation chime melodically when tapped
lightly with a crescent wrench or mallet.
It is believed that the ringing is a combination of the composition of
the rock and the way the joining patterns have developed as the rocks
have eroded away, though ultimately a concrete scientific explanation
has yet to be arrived at. Curiously, if a boulder is removed from the
pile, it no longer rings.
Syncronized with another such ringing rocks park in Pennsylvania, this will be the first simultaneous "rock" concert ever performed. Bring hammers, mallets, wrenches, and other percussive instruments for this gathering on Obscura Day to collectively rock out in this most curious of rock parks.
DETAILS AND DIRECTIONS
Meetup will be at 10:30 at the
Pipestone trailhead.
This unique geological formation is located approximately 18
miles east of Butte and north of I-90 on BLM land just beyond the
Pipestone trailhead.
Take Exit 241 (Pipestone) from I-90 and travel east on a
gravel road (parallels interstate) for about three-fourths of a mile,
then turn north on a gravel road, cross the railroad tracks and
continue north for approximately 3 miles. A high clearance vehicle is
recommended.
Bring trail mix and drinking water. Wear hiking shoes.
