Knob
Monadnocks
An isolated hill with steep sides is known as a butte. It is a narrow, flat-topped hill with steep, vertical sides formed by erosion of softer rock layers surrounding harder rock layers. Buttes are common in arid regions where erosion has sculpted the landscape over time.
Shiprock in Navajo means winged rock and is a tall, isolated rock hill called a monadnock that is found on a desert plain. Shiprock is made from igneous rock and volcanic breccia.
Both a hill and a mountain are geological formations made of rock. The distinction between the two lies in their size and elevation, with mountains typically being taller and having steeper slopes than hills.
A hill is usually made out of dirt. But a mountain is made out of rock and soil and is much taller.
A steep hill standing alone is known as a butte. A butte is a geological formation characterized by a flat top and steep vertical sides, typically found in arid regions where erosion has exposed the hard rock layers. Buttes are formed through differential erosion, where softer rock surrounding a more resistant layer is eroded away, leaving behind the isolated hill structure.
An inselberg is an isolated hill or mountain that rises abruptly from a flat surrounding plain, typically composed of hard rock that is more resistant to weathering and erosion than the surrounding rock. Inselbergs are commonly found in arid and semi-arid regions.
Simple: The rock is a hard rock.
A monadnock or inselberg is an isolated rock hill, knob, ridge, or small mountain that rises abruptly from a gently sloping or virtually level
