Features on the ridge north of town

(1/2) > >>

On the ridge system north of town, below the Table Mountain Observatory there is a substantial Corral made of telephone poles. Anyone know the history?

Same ridge, higher elevation. There is 2"X4" post with rocks around the bottom like a grave. The post has LULU carved into it. Any knowledge about this?

Wildman:
The corral on top of the ridge is from the old Mountain Stables....located just west of Mtn High East.  They had an overnight ride and would put the horses in the corral.  Water was hauled up for horses and people in a GI water buffalo.  

The "gravesite" was reported in pass down history to be that of someone who died in the 30's

Local:
Wildman  is right, it was for the overnight rides. i have been on a couple of them.
