Description
A cairn is a man-made pile of stones. Cairns have been and are used for a broad variety of purposes, from prehistoric times to the present. In modern times, cairns are often erected as landmarks, a use they have had since ancient times. Cairns are used as trail markers in many parts of the world, in uplands, on moorland, on mountaintops, near waterways and on sea cliffs, as well as in barren deserts and tundras. They vary in size from small stone markers to entire artificial hills. This one was photographed on top of the Wendelstein, a 1,838-metre-high (6,030 ft) mountain in the Bavarian Alps in South Germany.
