Runkesten — Sweden’s legendary rocking boulder — rendered in monochrome silence. Balanced atop a granite shelf in the forests of Småland, this glacial erratic can be made to sway with a gentle push, defying its massive weight. A monument to time, gravity, and myth.

A nervous-looking Ross of Mull granite boulder near Fionnphort this morning 😒

Boulders like this were left when this bit of west Mull was deglaciated about 17.5 thousand years ago.

More on deglaciation dates for western Scotland in this open access paper here: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2017.04.021 Fig 11 is a great summary.

@andyy it's a beautiful #GlacialErratic! A bit of history, the pioneers used to ride these for miles
