Feast Your Eyes!






Feast your eyes on Stone Mountain! This quite popular tourist attraction is used frequently throughout the year to host concerts, amusement rides and much more. However, behind the business and consumer agendas, the tourist masquerades, and the beautifully carved faces of people no one really knows about lies the sheer granite that gives this precipice its name. And after creating 5 different contour lines for this mountain, this is what I ended up with. What I thought was very interest was when I realized this elevation is not he traditional incline that is usually illustrated in regards to mountains. Instead I found out that the same elevation measurement would be located in at many different heights and locations. I think that this signals that there are valley or indentations if you will as the mountain's elevation rises. Which could signal erosion. Not too ordinary for an ordinary sounding name.
