Really interesting to see that little goat trail devoid of lichen in the second photo. I assume this is the path most people and animals tread when walking up the slabs.
Me too, I actually sat and considered it for a second. I had your thought, but I also thought that maybe the water during heavy rains is accumulating there and making it harder for lichen to grow? I have no idea though.
You might be right, I think water makes more sense.
