Know the history of this cobblestone art?
Interested in knowing more about who might have made this.
Located south of Santa Rosalillita.
Has always looked impressive.
Heading there for some ola's in 2 weeks.
Just wondering if you have some knowledge Nomads.

Woody, I'll be down in "the area" in January and February. U2U me if things come together waves-wise. If they don't I'll be at the door/floor or the
wall.

And like I said, try out Mi Casita next time down. Make the left turn in El rosario, go 1/2 mile? ....and good food is awaiting. Look for the big
pink house on the left and order a carne asada torta. We asked for beer and the daughter went into town to get it. Big tips....

I won't publish his name because I don't have his permission. If you spend much of the season there, you'll meet him. He camps at the fort just to
the south. He has more time collecting rock then building. It truly is art, done for the enrichment of those that visit the place.
Some years he will stack rocks along the low road coming in.
Ateo, the camping is better away from the "Getto" The long timers stay on the hill or around the the other side. Less chance of flooding due to rain
or high tides.

I was half drunk when I posted this, so forgive me for saying "wanted to know more who made this". I had heard it was some dude who has lived down
there forever. I guess I should've said "how the heck can you make something this cool?" Obviously he would've needed to put something in that hole
while constructing the top cobblestones, then take it out upon completion? Anyways, thanks all for the input and sorry for just saying "put something
in that hole and take it out upon completion".
