Put something together for the origin of the name "Sore Finger Road" which can be observed from Interstate 10 west of Phoenix:

I love the origin stories/lore though

The placard from I-10 is literally the blog cover/first photo.

No worries, truth be told I've had trouble tracking down the alleged rock formation.  I once took my truck down Sore Finger Road towards the Hovatter Airstrip around 05/06.  I recall not finding too much that would have suggested why the road was named like it was, granted that 2015 was some time away.
