Image for The Old Man of the Mountain

The Old Man of the Mountain

The Old Man of the Mountain was a famous natural rock formation in New Hampshire that resembled a profile of an elderly man's face when viewed from a specific angle. Composed of multiple granite ledges, it tragically collapsed in 2003, ending its status as a landmark. The formation became a symbol of New Hampshire, representing its natural beauty and history. Despite its absence, the "Old Man" remains an iconic image and a reminder of the region's geological and cultural significance.
