  • Hidden high in the mountains is a small ranchers cabin made of Juniper and mud that is left mostly forgotten by the world. Along the way to the cabin I will show you the writings left by previous groups of people who use to wander this land.

    Aw...Buster Wilson's place. We camped there many times in the lower cabin in the 70's. The water was still running into a trough. I have pictures of us hanging out. The outside of the cabin was covered in mud but you can't tell from the video. Later in the 70's the Hell's Angels found the place and took it over. We use to camp in the upper cabin but was kind of spooky. There was a story that there was gold hidden inside. I remember it having a stove and a place to have a fire. Why did you walked up to the second one when we drove our VW's up. Buster also had another (3rd) cabin on the other side of the Main Road, but never went there. Lot's of fun. Thanks for the adventures.

    The graffiti on the petroglyphs, shot up relics, and general disregard for history is why we can have nice things and why explorers, such as yourself, can’t typically give away the actual locations in good conscious. They will likely just get destroyed. Another great video and thanks for the adventure!

    Those petroglyphs on the scattered stones were obviously part of a much larger structure. As you made it to the cliff wall there were obvious signs of stone infastructure. Perfect stacking, straight lines and signs of mortar. The forest service had no intention of maintaining those buildings because they would attract attention to the site. All of these national parks are protected and controlled so most people don't know or find out about the ancient people that inhabited these places prior to their destruction. I understand and thank you for keeping these locations as secret as possible. I sure would be interested in more footage of the initial "cliff" wall and hieroglyphs- very fascinating, the stacking of those stones were very precise and it makes me wonder if the story of that "mining" site may have been a bit altered throughout time.

    My now deceased father who was very knowledgeable about things of the past and old once told me that these petroglyphs were a way to communicate that there was water close by or the wheat grass grows well on this side etc. I didn't see any religious symbols... But after they were taught christianity sometimes you would see symbols representing that. I only wish I could talk with my father to really retain the things he taught me so long ago.
