Good shot, Leo! They look like our glacier mills, it seems to be a similar system. Best wishes, May

Hello, May - I did not know what glacier mills were, so I did some research and read about the Maloja and Alp Mora Glacier Mills. That is probably what this is as this area has seen some glacial activity. Thank you for the information.
Sam - thank you for your kind words and your vote!
Best wishes to you both, Leo

Leo, there are many glacier mills to be seen in Switzerland, since most of this country has been covered by glaciers. If you are interested how they were formed, just have a look at Glacier Garden in Lucerne and see for 'potholes'. Btw. I guess there might be some more and maybe bigger ones than the one in your photo, in the same region, where you found yours. Best regards, May

Thank you for the link, May. Now I know why they are called "mills".
I will look for more glacier mills next time we walk along the river.
Warm regards, Leo

Hey Leo, I have just noticed a Vote button! So what do you think my next move was? I'll only give you one guess ;-)

Thank you so much, Amelia. You have made the sad eyes very happy.
