Here's a few photos from my trip to Lake Bonney from a while ago. The first ventifact (fancy word for wind-carved rock) was probably about 25-30 feet tall and maybe 50 wide. All the pockets and holes were carved from blowing sand. It was a pretty neat sight, kind of foreign to the eye. The one in the second photo really caught my eye because of its amazing likeness to a small coffee table. I inspected it for several minutes and found the little rock to be perfectly level as though it had been carved by a stone mason. It was really pretty wild.

what's a ventifact?
Admit it Greg, when you saw that coffee-table shaped ventifact, you were measuring it up and thinking about making one at home. I know you were.
haha!
