Balancing rocks are formed when a large rock or boulder rests on top of another rock, bedrock or on a glacial till. They are also called precarious boulders.

Why is Balanced Rock balanced?

Balanced Rock is likely balanced due to the erosion of softer rock material at the base of the formation, leaving a harder, more resistant rock on top. This process, along with the gradual shifting of the rock over time, has created the appearance of balance that we see today.


What is the forces that keeps the balanced rock balanced on its tiny pedestals?

The balanced rock stays balanced due to a combination of factors such as the shape and weight distribution of the rock itself, as well as friction and gravity acting on the rock and its base. These forces work together to keep the rock in place despite its precarious position.
