I was under the impression that this 'pillow lava' on Mt Constance (Olympic NP) was a close relative.

Hey Todd, was that last one Frenchman's ? Don't think I would have graduated at the UofI without those cracks.

Ya Todd, thats what I thought. Right next to Stems and Seeds. What year? There were no bolts on that one when I was last there, would have been a fun lead.

A friend, Karl B, did a lot of firsts out there. He told me they were able to trundle entire columns in that area.

Choss Gee

cracks in basalt form perpendicular to cooling surface, hence the cool columns.
