Northwest of Red Larch, Lance Rock is visible for miles.
Lance Rock is a narrow, twenty-five-foot menhir of bare, gray rock that juts eastward at a sixty-degree angle.The menhir is gray granite, unlike the surrounding limestone. A few hundred feet south of the stone is a ravine choked with brush. A trail leads into the brush near a neatly-painted sign that reads, in Common:
Come no closer
lest you catch
the disfiguring plague
that afflicts me!
The Lord of Lance Rock
The trail continues down to a cave mouth. Another warning sign with the same message is posted by the opening.
