Escarpments and Monoliths

One of the interesting features on many of my easements are Monoliths and Escarpments.  I don’t understand, nor can I explain the geologic forces which caused these formations to form.  I am, however, fascinated by them.  Some look perfectly cleaved.

Many hold pools on top that eventually work their way over the face to form waterfalls.

Other house-sized cubes stand by themselves in the middle of the forest.

Just one more wonder of protected landscapes.
