Heading into the section of _______ closest to where the phrase "The Cairn" appears on the map, I immediately spotted some Rock Piles in various states of preservation...
Walking on a soggy path, often on pressure treated board walks (sometimes a single board), I eventually came to some higher ground and some nice stone heaps....

A fallen tree, its roots exposed, revealed what looks much like a handaxe, dotted with quartz crystals, like some others I've come across...
I spotted "The Cairn" as I was looking at this stone. I started thinking perhaps there might be some sort of alignment to the Summer Solstice or a link to other mounds or something interesting and surprising...
As I got closer, the construction looked just a little different than the other stone mounds I'd been looking at for a couple weeks...
The "Carin" should probably be called the "Fireplace" or the "Barbecue."
I'm pretty sure I saw the signs of old logging roads and that this was a newer construction possibly related to that - or just plain old modern camping...

Walking back along higher ground and a "fence line," that I would term a "Stone Row with the Indian Look:"
It could be used as a fireplace but it looks like a pretty nice "u" as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat do I know anyway - it does look like a u-shaped seat...
