Granite tor with a floppy hat located just past railing at Kästeklippen overlook, nicknamed "The Old Man of the Mountain". Other Klippen, or crags, nearby are also named for their picturesque resemblances such as "The Witches Kitchen" . The granite outcrops are called "wool sacks" for their lumpy rounded shapes.
