Hello, Steemians! Watching my photocollection I came across something strange.
Just look at this two photos.
One:
Two:
You probably say: and what? It's just mountain landscape.
Okaaay, let's look carefully now:
Wow!
It's the same hill.
Take now into account fact that first and second photo are divided by the distance of almost 40 kilometers!
This hill must be huge!
Now you are ready, meet the Grand Bear Mountain:

It's 571 m above the sea level. Impressive, isn't it?
So this is not a hill. Actually It's laccolith.
It means that there was a probability that this mountain became a real volcano! However 150 million years ago something went wrong (or right :-) ) and this possibility was missed. Nowadays, Grand Bear Mountain or Au-Dag is well-known symbol of southern Crimean seacost. Next time I will be in this region I ll definetely visit the Grand Bear ;-)
Thank you for your attention!
