Interesting that only in California was a Kirkbride building considered a fire hazard. Kirkbride's pepper the east coast and many were still in use into the 1990's. Many new facilities for seniors are built on a one story Kirkbride to this day.
"Moral Treatment" is the correct term for the approach to the treatment of the mentally ill in the 1800's. You have done a great job of gathering information for this series!
Impressive detail gathering and storytelling, Kate. Dr. Stone sure knew how to throw a raging trout-themed hootenanny. I sense your future career as an esteemed historian...you can be anything you want to be!
Just by chance I ran into Mickey out at Skyline this past weekend, and he pointed me towards these videos. I can’t believe how well done this is! I feel like I’m watching something on the History channel! I have yet to finish up the next two but they’re on my watch list. I also heard about your fall in Downieville - Colin the driver at Yuba Expeditions mentioned something about someone’s arm on GVR a few weeks ago. Hope you’re on the mend and thank you for the videos!
Hi Forest! Mickey had a great time riding with you, he told me all about it. Hope to run into you sometime on the trails - my elbow is healing well and I hope to be back on the bike in December sometime. So glad you enjoyed part I, I had a lot of fun researching this series.
I’m so glad i found these videos!! A couple years ago i went to skyline & i’m not sure what it was but i was so creeped out I haven’t been back since lol. Especially the big white building 😅 Can’t wait to watch parts 2 & 3!
Just went there and found your videos. I was hoping for more info on the abandoned two story building with all of the graffiti on it that looked like old living quarters.
Hi Jarrett, all I know about that building is that it was called the "F-Ward", short for farming ward. I think the patients placed there participated in gardening and other outdoor activities into the 1970's.

Awesome job with the research and great video clips to show off the details!
I really enjoyed this series. Makes me wish I still lived in Napa. Thanks for sharing!

Been exploring that place for over 40 years and you answered so many questions I had . Thanks
My horse & I used to ride the trails often @ Skyline. The forest is enchanted. We’ve both seen a number of things there. LOL
Nicely done, thank you so much for your efforts!
Thank you for making these videos. I enjoying hiking and MTBing at Skyline. It's nice to know more of the history of the park/hospital.
One of my favorite trails for mtb. Thanks for making this video!

You know I was going to there this last week. I live in the Sacramento area and instead went to Rockville. This has me interested now.

Great job on a cool video.
There is no way people believe they built that castle that is more impressive than ones in England in 7 years..
I went inside the cavern, we smelled some-thing foul. Turned back. I can’t find anything on the cave, I’ve heard rumors of tunnels inside the area
