70 degrees today. Very windy. It has been all wings for three days.

High of 45 today.

As of late today the best candidate for “Eagle Rock” is this shattered cliff. It is smooth, not wet with running water, and not covered in two inches of lovely green moss.
This wall is the terminal of the quarry. After three days hiking over 30 acres I’ve discovered the history of this man made landscape. Where once were fields or woods, now lies a ravine. The north side is a man made cliff. The south side slopes up along a tilted plate of sedimentary rock. The quarry is the shape of a long knife blade with a broken tip. This picture shows the flat broken tip. It has good acoustics, but is somewhat treacherous to access.

After day two of scouting around, this yellow column is the front runner. It is wet, but not to mossy. It may make a nice vertical frieze. There is a bore hole from the quarry at the bottom, of the yellow stripe, which opens up some opportunities.

First day scouting out a new project in New Hope, PA.

Carolina Miranda has written an excellent piece for WNYC’s fine arts blog, Gallerina about petroglyphs I’ve carved. Click here for the story.
