Six huge monoliths at the north side of Table Mountain (Marvine laccolite). These monoliths are porphyry and represent that part of the intrusion that contacted the country rock. The interior has been eroded but these remain. Their greater resistance to erosion is probably controlled by jointing for the rock at the contact differs only very slightly from rock in the interior of the intrusion. Wayne County, Utah. July, 1936.
