Agassiz Rock & Boulder Arrangements- Manchester, MA.

  This is the rock that is featured on the cover of the book Manitou by Mavor and Dix.  It is a large boulder that is propped up, located on a ledge with a spectacular over-look/ view-

Looking down, here is the trail that leads up to the ledge with the boulder placements-
