By: nobert bermosa
Some rock formations are extremely unique having a close resemblance to human or part of human's anatomy.

The rock formation is in Alberta, Canada about 300km southeast of Calgary, near the border with Saskatchewan. The rock formation's "face" measures about 255m across and it's about 225m long.

This picture of the Old Man of the Mountain was taken on 26 April 2003, about six days prior to its collapse. A late spring snow occurred the night before. The Old Man of the Mountain, also known as the Great Stone Face or the Profile, was a series of five granite cliff ledges on Cannon Mountain in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, USA that, when viewed from the correct angle, appeared to be the jagged profile of a face. The outcrop was 1,200 feet (370 m) above Profile Lake, and measured 40 feet (12 m) tall and 25 feet (7.6 m) wide.
