Checking out a 3rd road to the 1948 Structures

2 years ago

A return trip to see if this 3rd old road seen on the USGS Hill Shade map is visible and could be used to access the bench to the east of the creek where 2 structures are shown on the 1948 topo map.

It does look like this road is still there on the far side of the creek. Looks like it was accessed by the private bridge across Stevens Creek just downstream from this location. There's a small side stream that needed to be crossed before climbing up the side of the ridge to the bench. This area is still privately owned and no trespassing signs are posted around the bridge.

This is about as far down the canyon as can be easily explored as most of the land down from here is privately owned. There are another place or two down from here that may be accessible that I need to check out some day.
