That is where the Bell or Ringing Rock is. It was used to call several small villages of NAI, together for ceremonies or used as a warning. When struck by another rock the Ringing/Bell rock does sound out. Fenced off and protected by Pechanga NAI, these days. Would have been quite audible before the age of machinery. I can hear the 215 FWY which is about a mile away from us. Used to be able to hear the bells at the elementary school. (Now mothballed.) |
