This boulder, a memorial stone from the last Ice Age, provided the material for some popular stories. The boulder is called "Bloms kammare" because it is said that a wandering journeyman named Blom often found a place to stay under an overhang at the back when he was in the area. According to another legend, told by "Petter on Liarna", a pregnant woman is said to have saved herself at the last second from an attacking wolf by climbing a stone block. From up there, with the help of a long stick, she had kept the wolf away from her body until her shrill cries for help came from nearby farms and drove the wolf away.
