Cliff face

The incredible strata and striations that etch the cliff face can hold the attention for ages. Your eye starts to follow a ridge or undulation then veers away along another. The vertical marks are the most interesting as you imagine they have been cut by water falls... but that is unlikely as there is nowhere for the water to have come from, and the channels begin right at the very top.

The Gorse Fox wished he knew a little more about geology.
