The glacial erratic’s mysterious cousin. While an erratic is dumped by nature’s icy hand, a menhir stands as a testament to human curiosity and ingenuity. Menhirs are prehistoric stone monuments, often solitary but occasionally found in mystical formations. Think of them as the original trail markers, but instead of pointing you toward the next portage, they pointed you toward…the sky? The stars? Some ancient Boundary Waters equivalent of Zups? The Menhir isn’t just a stone — its a vibe. A reminder that humans have always been drawn to the mystical and monumental, even in the harsh beauty of the wilderness. When visiting a Menhir leave some Tobacco as an offering to the Memegwesi.
