Kick ass place I went too (lots of pics) - Ryan T - 08-11-2004

Well, my brother and I decided to go camping at a friend of ours who lives on a nearby mountain. While there the guy who owns the place wants to take us on a hike to what he calls The Channels. They are crazy ass rock formations. In order to get there you have to drive on a rutted gravel/dirt road for 1.5 miles and then the trail gets narrow and we drove on a Gator 6x4 for about 2 more miles. Then you have to hike up the mountain for 2 miles. At the top is a really cool place called the firetower, I've got some pics of that too.

Its crazy they have a huge iron tower from the 1950's and there is basically no driveable road to the top now.

A one room house at the top where a local writer once lived for a year to write a novel.

Once at the firetower, you hike down the other side of the mountain about 1/4 mile and you arrive at The Channels. These are some cool ass rock formations that make the whole hike worth it.
