What is a cliff foot boulder?

A cliff foot boulder is a large rock or boulder that has become detached from a cliff face and rests at the base of the cliff. These boulders can result from erosion, weathering, or seismic activity that causes rock to break away from the cliff. They often play a role in the local ecosystem by providing habitats for various plants and animals. Additionally, cliff foot boulders can be of interest to geologists and climbers alike.
