I have collected rocks when backpacking forever! It would be a great day if I uncovered one of the summit stones.
I have been canoeing lakes and rivers for quite a while too. In 2004 a group of us were paddling various lakes in Prince Albert National Park in northern Saskatchewan. At the south end of Crean lake is a campsite where we stopped on our last day. After starting a small fire we were moving cut logs around for better seating. Under one of these was a "Summit Stone" by DSD. What a neat experience that was! What a terrific find. I've been looking over this website after coming across a link on a kayak site. Its brought back great memories and thanks for those. I will let the others know and visit here again.
These are amazing!!
Found two on Pilot Mountain three summers ago! Finding out lots more about your endeavors now too. You should put up a profile and let us know who you are. We are finding lots on other sites. You get around as one post said!
Very cool and touching efforts!
