We call this Turtle Rock. It sits on the edge of Viceroy Road near the end at the turn-around. As you approach the rock on the road it looks more "turtle-like" than here in the photo because I snapped the picture while avoiding the hydro pole and its tension wires beside it. It's an enormous boulder, larger than a pick-up truck, and it sits alone removed from any other rock structures - likely deposited there after the last Ice Age, or it rolled down from the adjacent hill following the Ice Age when the water levels were higher.

Good thing it didn't hit your house!

Hahaha. UC, you're funny. Nice rock, Rob. Looks like a spaceship from this angle - a fossil of ealy alien visitors?
