THIS STONE WANTS TO GO HOME

  • A glacier left this 38-pound (17kg) Canadian boulder in Ohio during the last ice age, and now ~30,000 years later, I'm going to take it north to the source of that glacier and leave the stone behind, ready to move again in the next ice age. The project is being documented start to finish in a digital log book viewable on this separate project page.
