We walked all around this rock and didn't see marks for floods.

Are there actual marks that a person should be able to see?

Or is there just the idea that in the past people made some marks that are now gone?

When I saw it last year, the marks were faded. They were pretty high up on the rock and if memory serves, on your right side if you are facing the rock from the trail.

Be on the lookout for a territorial goose that was lying down in front of standing rock and we were not able to pass a few weeks ago. It was a bit scary as he kept flying in front of us and hissed at us. We had to get off our bikes and use that as protection.

Trigirl, that goose attacked me!! He swooped on me once, and then sat on top of the rock giving us the evil eye!

Jerry, thanks for confirming! I couldn't see anything. I guess I imagined that someone would have chiseled the marks in, but I think I just imagined that.
