Frost-heave monoliths on glacial pavement, near #Inukjuak, northern #Quebec. #cryosphere #Geology

The pillow rinds have preferentially weathered, outlining the basalt pillows formed at least 3.75 and perhaps as long ago as 4.3 billion years ago. Now metamorphosed to amphibolite grade. In the Ujaraaluk unit of the Nuvvuagittuq Greenstone Belt, near #Inukjuak, northern #Quebec. #McGill University #EarthSystemScience #PillowBasalt #Hadean 1/2

My son and I. My wife took the picture. We are building out cabin an hour north of town.
Accessible only by freighter canoe during the summer, and snowmobile during winter and spring.
I can't wait to work on it some more. I was hoping for three years to complete, but looks like it will be five instead. We started the foundations summer 2019.
