Description
The famous sailing stones on the Racetrack, Death Valley, California under our very own galaxy.
I take for granted that you know the size of the rock, but I had someone tell me today that they saw the picture of the rock (this picture) while gesturing with their fingers holding them about 2 inches wide. I realize there is nothing here to show scale, but this particular rock is about 12 inches across and 8 inches or so tall, about twice the size of a bowling ball and I estimate it weighs 70 to 90 lbs. It use to be a mystery how it moved, but it is still a wonder that a plane of ice and a 15 mile per hour wind could drag it at all along the surface.
