I definitely don't want to walk up them, but I definitely enjoy looking at them in this excellent image, Dave. #10946490David Phalen January 14, 2014
Thanks Mitch!! I think there's some kind of obelisk at the top. Not sure I'll ever climb up to see. Maybe in warmer weather I can somehow get around to the top. #10946804Katherine Kuhn January 14, 2014
