Laurel Park in Stevens Creek Canyon, CA.

Exploring a random point of interest on Google Maps as well as remains of an old homestead.

At first I was skeptical about this Laurel Park point of interest on Google Maps as I've ridden by here hundreds of times and never noticed anything special. But after a few stops to look closer, I think there may be a few faint remains of the old swimming hole from the 1960's.

The old stone work remains are just up the road from Laurel Park at the next power pole. I see no dwellings shown in the area on either the 1897 or 1940 top maps:

If anyone has any more information on these two locations, feel free to post up in the comment section below or e-mail contact information in the channel About tab. If you know of any book or article titles to look for, that would also be of interest.

Still trying out various camera setting on the Open Camera app with the Armor-7 smart phone.
