This place made me think of you, /out/...

>>640551
I wonder if far in the future archaeologists will find all these fucking piles of rocks and go crazy trying to figure out what the fuck they could possibly mean.

>>640559
>And here we spot one of the organic counting piles used by the prehistoric Oil Peoples. This system of discs was capable of over 90 calculations per hour. Based on this "close and tall" configuration, we can infer that it was operated by 11 men (or 28 dogs), and likely used to predict missile trajectories, rain patterns, and Super Bowl outcomes.

Stack cow patties?

>>640551
We call them Hoodoo's where I'm from

I love kicking them over because I hate being reminded that somebody else was there.

WTF is this shit? I haven't been hiking in years because I do more fishing, but I've never come across anything like this.
Please explain.

>>640633
It's a meme that probably originated from using stacked rocks as trail markers. Now people do it to leave their anonymous mark which is fucking stupid.

>First time taking girlfriend out, shes asks what the pile of rocks are for
>"Used to be used as trail markers but not people just do it for fun I guess, I never got it"
>"That's stupid" she then goes and kicks everyone over we see

>>640563
heh pretty good fiction there. kudos to you anon.

Did you at least go kicking through that mother fucker like it's going out of style?

>>641362

Jedi kung fu crazy erry damn time

>>640551
But where is the poop and pennies?

>>640633
it's what happens when a generation that grew up on facebook and instagram gets old enough to go hiking/camping. They can't do anything without leaving some obnoxious analog to a like/retweet. Can't just enjoy something and keep walking, you have to make sure that everyone knows you were there before them.

This is coming from a guy from that generation.

>>641418
bro I have seen plenty of trees with graffiti from the 60's on it.

>girlfriend

You mean wife right?

>>640551

Where is this?

pls respond you faggot

>>641418
>>641477
In a way it it's proof that our generation had a positive outlook on life. Enough to believe that there will be a future generation to see this graffiti. I wonder if kids growing up in cold war era did less graffiti?

>>641327
>>641490
It's on the way up to Queenstown Hill, NZ.

>>641494
If we're talking modern graffiti, if anything it was more commonplace. What we see today on walls and trains was born in the early 70s and hit one of its' biggest booms in the early 80s.

>>640601
Would hate to see what you would do on the moon.

>>640551
you better kicked those down, anon

unless they're used for trail markers/markers for peaks, they're fucking stupid

>>640551
i would've kicked each one of those fuckers down

for you /out/

>>641418
I though it's a way to memorialize deceased

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairn#Asia_and_the_Pacific

Kicking down cairns is an artform in itself. The psuedo-hippies who make them should appreciate the transient nature of existence, as represented by the destruction of the cairn.

Time, like an ever rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly, forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.

>>644180
We didn't kick them though.

>>644201
Not all cairns should be kicked , cairns like those are best pushed over or taken apart bit by bit.
No need to be dramatic about it.

Rofl I'm now including 3xgorilla glue proxy into my day pack and going to make some op af stacks.

I knock over every single cairn I see. You morons have no clue what you are doing building these fucking eyesores. "Ohhh look I made it to the top of the 5 mile trail hike! Let's build a cairn to celebrate!! :O)"
