| no partners | | | I found myself back up near the TH for the Lambing Creek Ruin yesterday. On my original hike to the ruin last month I had discovered copious amounts of pottery and lithic scatter in the washes that lead down to Lambing Creek. That day I veered completely off my planned course following the scatter and eventually decided that another day I would return to investigate the source. My husband and I took the very long extremely bumpy slow going drive up FS1749 and parked near the gate to begin our journey. The first traces of artifacts begin along side the road near the base of the 4800 foot hill which coincidentally is due south of the point of the ridge where Lambing Creek ruin sits. The breadcrumbs continue up all sides of the hill and eventually lead to some very old petroglyphs which then lead to a very dilapidated ruin. The entire hill is covered in pottery and the maps seem to have no name for it so I now refer to it as pottery mountain. It didn’t amount to much of a hike, .8 miles but, it is a steep climb to the top and there are some nice views along the way. |
