Unfortunately NH's state symbol fell off the face of Cannon Mountain in the early 2000's.

Wow, I didn't know that! I have seen him and hiked there in 1995! Will have to look at my old photos now once more.
Thank you, you learn something new here everyday!

Faraway Friend,

Glad you got the chance to see it, for nearly 150 years the stone face was the symbol of New Hampshire. It was a sad day for the state when it finally succumbed to gravity.

Looks like some possible campfires down the river. Maybe a covered wagon too?

It's the Grey Man of Merrick, it sits at the base of Merrick mountain in Scotland's Galloway Forest Park.
