The formation known as the Devil's Punchbowl is located on the top of Hamilton Mountain, overlooking the city's suburbs. The Punchbowl was formed during the last Ice Age by what must have been a massive waterfall of melting ice when the glaciers retreated. The remaining waterfall is a mere trickle compared to what the ancient waterfall must have looked like, but the gorge that it carved out is still incredibly impressive. It is over 120 feet in height and at least that wide. Right next to it, on a viewing platform overlooking the city's suburbs, is a giant 10 meter high cross that was erected in 1966 and lights up at night.
