Description
In olden times, cairns were often constructed and used for ceremonial purposes. Their most popular use today, however, remains that of trail marker. Cairns are commonly seen along hiking trails, put in place to help navigate others safely through rugged terrain. They can also indicate nearby food, shelter, or paths. While many trail markers look new, some of these stone cairns were constructed long ago for helping those that may one day take the same path.
Today they have even more meanings...maybe a prayer for someone who has passed, particularly someone who loved the outdoors.
