Even though the GRC 2020 Summer Tour had ended on Labor Day, I was still keeping that mentality of finding new places to hike (and to take pictures of). Honestly I haven’t spent a lot of time on the south side of the city, so I know there’s a lot of things there I hadn’t explored yet. This one I came across on a map, and figured it was worth a look. Warn you that the driveway for this area wasn’t well-marked so I drove past it once before I was able to locate it when coming from the other direction.
This was primarily a walking trail with few treed areas, but a lot of informational historical signs along to way to describe the settlement which once was here. The trail was well-marked, and there were a few area trail-runners out here too. Much of the terrain looked the same, so I ended up taking few pictures. And many of the historical areas only have some stone walls as remnants. Still worth seeing.
One thing which was odd was at the parking area there was an abandoned stone house. It was hard to tell the age, if it was an original building which had been updated, or something meant to look part of the settlement. It was fenced-off so you could get close to it, and there were no signs associated with it. Just an interesting unanswered question portion.
