A very nice day trip about 50 miles away. What do you suppose caused this rock to be split like this?
Great shots from an interesting area. I expect time, gravity and erosion took their toll on the rock. As Gollum said
"This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down."

Earthquake perhaps?

I'm thinking it fell out of an alien spacecraft and hit just right. Only logical explanation.

Great cracked boulder. Undoubtedly a message from Q. Or it fell out of an alien spacecraft and hit just right. 50-50 chance for either.

Nice shots of those rock formations!
The cracking is caused by old age. When get as old as those rocks something is bound to break — where do you think pebbles come from? 🤔

I always thought pebbles were rock seeds...if you plant them and water them, they grow into great big rocks.

What puzzles me are the right angle splits. I wonder how those occurred.
I'm with you. Straight angles in nature make me wonder.
