<\/p>\n

Diane and I are really getting into this back country bushwhacking.\u2026 <\/p>\n

We’re getting to know some of the wilderness back behind our house. It’s really fun connecting the dots between a bunch of places<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

Were determined to find the location of the old Wylie lodge. It was dismantled and burned by the Green Mountain club in 1983. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We’ve tried approaching it from the Robbins Mountainside today we approached it from the happy Hollow side which is on the other side in Huntington.\ufffc<\/p>\n\n\n

We started off by heading up through thick woods up to a ridge to see if we can figure things out.\u2026 It was slow going because it was very steep very wooded. We finally came down to a road\u2026 And a pond which we always have known was there but I’ve never seen. I actually took a swim. Then we followed some single lane bike tracks up in the woods explored a couple of different things before heading straight through the woods to where we thought Wylie would be.\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We were surprised to find signs back in the woods like that. I’d have to see it to know how remote this was\ufffc<\/p>\n

Eventually after crashing to the bush for over an hour we might be the location of Wylie Lodge. We were about to give up with Diane found a blue blaze\u2026 Then right after that I found two pieces of stove pipe in an old tin can. That had to be the place. We also found some sawed logs etc. signs Of human existence\ufffc\u2026 In the middle of nowhere\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Super fun doing this kind of exploring\u2026 Especially with this wonderful fall we’re having\ufffc<\/p>\n

Nite all, nite Sam<\/p>\n
