Some popular places to visit are built by people. Other famous places are created by nature. For example, in the northeast of the United States, there was a famous rock on a high mountain that looked just like an old man. He had lots of hair, a big nose and a beard.People called him“The Old Man of the Mountain” and every year more than a million people came to look at him. “The Old Man of the Mountain”, also known as the Great Stone Face or the Profile, was 1,200 feet (370 meters) above Profile Lake, and measured 40 feet (12 meters) tall and 25 feet (7.6 meters) wide. The site is located in the town of Franconia, New Hampshire, USA.Scientists think that the stone face had been there for about 17,000 years.
In May 2003, there was very bad weather near the Old Man of the Mountain.There were very high winds and the temperature was very cold. The sky was so cloudy that people couldn’t see the stone face for many days. As soon as the storm was over, people looked for the Old Man and they couldn’t see him. They discovered that he had fallen apart. The stones that made his face sank down the mountain. A number of scientists climbed up to see if they could repair the stone face, but they had to give up. They figured out(斷定)that the damage from the weather was just too bad.
