A few miles south of Salisbury CT on the AT is a strange monolith standing in the woods. The ground around it is worn bare, as if by people walking around it.

Does anyone know what this is? Do people visit it & perform human sacrifices or something? I can't seem to find anything on the web about it apart from a few photos.

All I know is it's called "The Thumb." Kinda weird the first time you come upon it. Easy to imagine a wide variety of bizarre explainations.
I personally like to think it was placed by space aliens to confuse bigfoot.

That's Giant's Thumb. It's not man made... just a rock that's been pushed into place by glacial activity.
