A rock or boulder carried from its original source by an act of nature is called an erratic. This granite erratic was deposited near Harrisburg, Oregon about 12,000 years ago. Geologists say it was carried there by an iceberg during the Spokane-Missoula floods that swept through the Willamette Valley as glaciers receded at the end of the last ice age.
