I will try to look in the next few days. I know that I took some photos from a plane , but don't know if I show that area.

I lived in the town of Mosier for many years. On the west side of the town there is a place that has been used as a gravel pit for many years. In it there is , (or was, I have not been there for years) a large piece of granite. The size of a small car, it had slide marks on it showing movement at some time. It sat on top of the rest of the native scab type rock. There was an artical in anewspaper at one point about erratics by I believe a geoligist named Elliot from perhaps Portland.. I wrote to him about this rock and got a reply back stating that there was no such erratic in that area so large! I probably have photos of it. I lived up away from the Columbia about 800 ft elevation and found many small pieces of granite and also one piece of black glass.
