Scotland to the peaks of the Himalaya -- where they come from, what they mean, why

they&#8217reused, how to make cairns, and more. Cairns are so much more than a random pile of

rocks, knowing how to make cairns can drastically alter the meaning of the formation. Hikers, climbers,

travelers, gardeners, and nature buffs alike will delight in this quirky, captivating collection of stories

about cairns.
