moraine ....this one of the reasons my university is famous....some farmer like 120 years ago found this huge rock in his field, unlike any other...so he called...strike that...he rode his horse to the college to seek a scientist. Today, that moraine the size of those plastic garbage cans on the side of the sidewalk. is on display in a special garden at the university...it floated all the way from Montana, down the snake and Columbia river, turned south down the Willamette river and landed in the Monmouth Oregon field....by glacier drift...

This 90-ton rock was deposited during an Ice Age flood. It floated over 500 miles in an iceberg 12,000 to 17,000 years ago, by way of the Columbia River. When the ice melted, the rock was left behind. This is the largest glacial erratic found in the Willamette Valley. It is a type of rock not normally found in Oregon because it came from the Northern Rocky Mountains. Visitors at Erratic Rock can look out across the vast landscape and imagine the huge amount of water that filled the Willamette Valley during the Ice Age Floods. this one is in a secret place.
