@zeborah This reminds me of seeing the mortars ground into rock by the indigenous people of California as they ground acorns and other seeds into flour. It must have been hard work.
I saw these at the Idyllwild Nature Centre in the San Jacinto mountains of California. They're called chaw’se by the Miwok people of northern California. I'm not sure what southern Californian people called them.

I also have a #BikePacking trip I did that is on the blogger platform but is really hard to see or understand. I've been looking for some way to combine maps, words, photos and video in a way that makes sense.
