Sandstone Formation
A sandstone formation.  It looked like a skull to me: the mouth and the 
eyes are easy to spot.
A closer view of the sandstone boulder.
A close-up of some of the tiny, honeycomb erosion in the boulder.  This
picture makes it difficult to tell the scale -- each cave is actually a
few inches tall.  I can easily imagine it as a cut-away view of the
rooms and buildings of a city built into the rock, all inhabited by tiny
people.  This close-up is of the part of the formation seen in the
lower-right of the previous picture.

Elsewhere
A nice vista.  Generally the hike was wooded; glimpses through the trees 
were few and far between.

Oddly, the vista point itself didn't have much of a view.  (The trees 
around it were too overgrown.)
An unusual, mossy tree.  Sadly, this picture didn't capture any aspect 
(color, shape, personality, distinctiveness) of the tree that I sought.
