[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 2478960, member: 1"] Everyone knows that a cairn is a stack of stones used to designate the trail...such as the image above. The Needles trail system relies on cairns more than any other hike area I have been in because so much of the trail system is over slabs of rock with no "worn" trail visible. I lost the trail for up to 40 or 50 yards at a time about 5 or 6 times since I was so intently searching for photo ops and quite distracted by the beauty surrounding me. So I'd have to double back finding that last cairn and then find the next one that I had missed. [/QUOTE]
