Today's aerial view of the Tour Ronde rock avalanche deposit that occurred last sunday! 😲 An allegory of a north face of a 3,800 m peak in the 21st century... not a single ounce of ice left! 🔥🧊 📷 Gilles Léger 🙏

Fair point. Would have been good to have more detail in perhaps a later paper? For example the detrital zircon U–Pb ages: to the casual viewer, this looks like it could be the result of deposition layers (and if so could exist at locations other than the Sarclet area).

BBC News this morning around 7.15, @remyveness.bsky.social talking about his team's research suggesting the Altar Stone could have been glacially moved to Doggerland but not as far as Stonehenge - humans doing the rest as sea levels rose. But that inundation was in the mesolithic, not neolithic. /1

From Inverness to Wessex via Dogger Bank (no, not my career story)... New paper just out modelling ice flow and transport of Old Red Sandstone from outcrop to Dogger Bank, as part of the transport of the Altar Stone of Stonehenge, just out now in JQS: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....
