Mushroom Mesa
this Tatooine landmark was located on the Mos Espa podracing course made famous by the Boonta Eve Classic. The top-heavy stone pillars of this area are shaped like giant mushrooms, and many observers claim to have seen faces carved into the stones. Legends say that the Sand People are the keepers of the secrets hidden in the stone faces, while most geologists claim that any "faces" in the stones were carved by unusual wind erosion. The Mesa later served as a section of the noted Mos Espa Circuit, a swoop racing event held annually during the height of the New Order.
