Great Stone Face, Powell river.

The creation of the Great Stone Face is due to a natural process called erosion. For millions of years, the rock in this formation has been broken and worn away by wind and water. At this point, the Powell River has cut a gap through Stone Mountain, leaving behind the Great Stone Face to watch over the area. The different types of sedimentary rock making up the “face” produced different rates of erosion. This produced the face you see today.
