Boulders are a larger version of cobbles. Usually, boulders are somewhat rounded or otherwise uniquely shaped by abrasion in the course of river or glacial transportation. Boulders may also vary due to distinctive processes of weathering. Generally, boulders are too heavy to be lifted readily by hand.
