I love the glacier polish. I usually think of glacier polish being on the top surface, not a side surface.

Fantastic!
Sculpted by freezing and thawing?

Thanks, all! I wish I knew more about the geology of these rock faces. I have some more images to share...and I was so taken by these walls that I could have spent a lot more time with them. So much to see!
