granite. Popular for making headstones and plaques on monuments.</p><p>Solid chunk of greenschist. Shows the amphiboles(inclusine) in the rock. This rock may be nearly 1 billion yrs, old. Named it 'Dowsers' Rock'. Had to drag it 1/2 a mile out of the woods, just to have it in my collection!</p><p>A little wall I built, made out of Mt. Shuksan rock.</p><p>Road cut through a balsalt flow. Shows the silicate intrusions in the cracks that were further metamorphosed into quartz. This area was heavily explored for gold, but even though many mines were dug, the amount found, wasn't worth the effort. Logging was the real 'gold' in the area!</p><p>Road cut made while building the Upper Baker River dam. basalt flow in origin, but showing a high content of ferrous oxide leaching out due to water erosion.</p><p>Lower Baker River dam, showing a cut through the basalt flow. this is a favorite hangout for the Skagit River bald eagle group.
