Description
The Altar Stone at the Stonehenge War Memorial in Klickitat County, Washington was completed in 1918 to honor the sacrifice of the soldiers of Klickitat County in World War I. As at the original Stonehenge on the Salisbury Plain in England, the midwinter, or winter solstice, the sunset would be centered through the Altar Stone with the rays forming a straight line to the center of the structure at the exact time of the soltice.
