Present Day
The erratic is clearly visible from the side of Highway 7, and public parking is available at the turn-off. While there is a fence around the Big Rock and a sign telling people not to climb, many people visit the rock and ignore the warnings to either boulder or climb the 9-metre (30 ft) tall erratic.

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“Certainly he can present a bill for such services. After all, we are not communists.”
—Mario Puzo (b. 1920)
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
