Right after chasing the steam locomotive from Chomonkyo to Tsuwano, I drove northwestbound to Kita Nagato Coast to see some hornfels, which is again recommended by Satoshi. The word, 'hornfels', originally came from a German word, meaning 'hornstone'. Not really very helpful I know so look at the pictures! Alternatively, you can refer to the following site on wikipedia for more information:
