Nature can take hold in precarious places. Chapel Rock on Lake Michigan has a single tree perched atop its column. By rights the tree should not be there: the small surface area of land on the top of the rock is insufficient to sustain a tree of this size.
There is hardly any topsoil, certainly not enough for an obviously thriving tree. How then does it flourish?

...the rock formation is IN (the state of) Michigan, but actually ON the shore of Lake Superior. Other than that, very nice article about it. I've actually been to the location several times, very beautiful area...Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
