Log Text: Required a bit of (very) light bushwacking to get to, there's kind of a side path leasing up to it but it's a bit covered in branches. Following this path I ended up in a rocky kind of "clearing", at which point I didn't know where to go next. But then I spotted the menhir through some branches (1.5m is quite a bit bigger in person than you'd imagine), bushwhacked my way through the branches, and made it to the menhir.
It almost looks like they just pulled it out of the ground where they found it, because right in front of the menhir (front as in, roughly from where you approach) there's a menhir-sized hole in the ground.
The back of the menhir is a lot flatter than the front.
I wonder what purpose it served.

Log Text: Wow! Very big!
I visited at night which made the whole thing extra spooky, but this one is really beautiful.
It's surrounded by all sorts of hiking trails going in all directions.
