Omak Rock, Granite rock formation near Omak Lake, Washington.
The prominent granite formation stands as a natural balancing rock, positioned approximately 410 meters from the waters of Omak Lake in northern Washington state.
The rock formation remained intact during the North Cascades earthquake of 1872, leading scientists to conduct studies about seismic acceleration in the region.
The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation recognize this natural formation as a representation of their connection to the surrounding landscape.
Visitors can access the formation through Highway 97, which provides direct routes to viewing points near the Colville Indian Reservation.
Scientists use this formation to analyze geological patterns, as its location suggests possible proximity to the epicenter of historical seismic events.
