So these are my thoughts and ideas, right? And I think that's, you know, for a lot of us, that's probably why, you know, the archaeological community pushes back so hard is because we're exploring ideas that they outright dismiss. But fascinating area. Bolivia is amazing. It was one of my favorite trips ever. It was so full of all kinds of craziness going on throughout the entirety of that trip.
But also Bolivia is a wonderfully beautiful and incredible country for experiencing a variety of natural beauty. like the uni salt flats the you know the altiplano getting up into the altiplano wildlife um you know uh just so much natural beauty and formations and all sorts of uh really incredible stuff out there including all the ancient sites

Yeah, 100%. That's what they call it. This is me walking up on the wall. i found walking up onto the site like that comparable to my experience of walking up to saxon woman the it's generally dismissed by the archaeological community as a as a natural feature usually as a volcanic dike so this sits in the boulder batholith area of montana

um what's that the boulder batholith is um i it's it's big but it's as far as batholith goes it's a it's smaller but it's it's a large underground and above ground outcropping of the of this all the stone um which does create these natural like really unique formations all over the place

But what we have here is a level of what looks like precision that's unique to what these outcroppings and stuff generally look like. Now, I've seen a lot of dikes and, you know, the dikes and stuff generally push up and they have a more vertical kind of appearance and different stuff. This is just straight up horizontal all the way across and flat and a flat top.

And they've done ground penetrating radar now. And they've established there's like a table about 15 to 20 feet down, a flat surface down at the base of this. And so hugely, hugely thankful to Chris and Linda who own the property that this sits on for opening it up to the public.

They've completely rearranged their lives and what they were doing to accommodate for this so that people can come out there and see it. and have funded the research that's been going on into, you know, getting to the bottom of, you know, whether or not this could have some kind of manmade influence. But I feel like it's a fascinating site.

The reason why I focused so much on this site, because there are other things to explore and look at in Montana. But this one here is on private property. And we have the opportunity to explore it. And also, I feel like it's just the most, you know, there's a lot of people that, you know, Tizer Dolman is another site out there.
