    If I remember correctly there is a stream on the trail leading to the ruins where the water is good. Is that true?

    Yes I think your right Mule, the Ruins is on a point, and 2 small brooks filter to one at the end of the point....should be good water.

    My brother is getting a heart procedure done this morning at 11:30 so I am going to be at the hospital until sometime in the afternoon. I should still make it there by 5pm. I will call you or text you, Jerry. Steve

    Looks like we are going to have several people at the Ruins Hang...

    Be Prepared, I was just doing some research on the area and like Browning Hill, this place is said to be haunted by the family who owned the homestead...

    This should be fun..Weather is going to be perfect, 70's during the day and 60's at night.....

    Looking forward to seeing all of you there...

    Oh and if you have kids 9 or 10 years old, my son will be going....might make it more fun for the kids if there were more of them...

    Hey can't wait...see you all there..

    Hanging at the Ruins

    I hope you all have/had a good time this weekend. I was at the ruins in March, and we had a great time. I'm looking forward to a good trip report!

    Well HAd to cut our trip short....

    My son Josiah is not to keen on storms, and this is his first hang....didnt want to scare him.....Sooo...here is how it went....

    We arrived at the site near 6:30 pm, where we met up with Mule, shortly after we were there Ron the farmer came in....
    We had dinner, set up camp, and relaxed for a while...some time around 9 pm we turned in....
    Josiah and I laid in the hammocks and read for a while, and listned to our MP3 players. finally after a conversation with mom and grandma Josiah fell asleep and I soon followed.

    More to come....

    here are a few pics.

    It was a short trip but long enough to know the mosquitos were out to ruin a long lounge around a fire. I had a great time.
