No, I don't believe it could have rolled there.. The area behind the exposed post piles goes down @ least 50ft or more & then slopes upward prob 500 ft or so.
That big rock is obviously different than the post piles, very similar to the rock above & yet there is no visible trauma on that rock from a great tumble, it is rather smooth..
I would guess it is a glacial debris stone, left in a perfect spot..??? You don't notice many others sitting around, but this is a bit lower elevation, around 8,000, so there are trees & bushes covering the landscape..
Not far from there, up higher in desolation wilderness you can clearly see debris left as well as glacial scares on solid granite.. Check out how smooth & various color/types of rocks dumped

This vid I took, you can see how the glaciers cut & rubbed smooth the surface & left various rock debris as it eventually melted]
