We only drove 30 minutes to get to this place. Consequently, we arrived early and had most of the day to get acquainted. This park has an unusual beginning. We are right next to I 70. When they built that highway they needed a lot of fill dirt. The plan was to literally, dig up a hill and use the dirt to build the roadway. As they started digging they began to discover artifacts. Turns out that hill was the site of the largest Fremont Indian village ever discovered. Can't stop progress. The hill and the village are toast. The artifacts that were discovered are housed in a museum at the park Hq. There is a lot of rock art that we are in the process of trying to find. We're here for 2 nights.
Looks like a cool campsite, with lots of rock climbing
ReplyDeleteI second the "cool campsite" comment by Pat. Did yall get everything fixed...or am I behind a day? Have fun hiking. Looks like a great place to do just that.
ReplyDeleteThe door latch problem has been fixed. We are carrying problems with us that will be addressed later. Pat might be right that the old girl might need to be put out to pasture.
