The Potato Chip Rock has gained great fame among photography aficionados. What looks like a potato chip from afar, is actually a sharp, protruding ridge of a a giant boulder. You can enjoy picturesque views of the surrounding mountains and hilltops from the rock. Don't be surprised if you see hikers getting creative with photography and creating some really out of the box illusions. The rock is a part of the elaborate Mount Woodson trail, which has now become increasingly famous thanks to the chip rock. Dare to recreate the iconic scene of Mufasa's death from Lion King. Or just celebrate your successful hike and catch your breath by opening a bag of chips!
