The last post I made a while back I told the story of this ruin I had been looking for in Butler Wash for a few years.
Old thread here (http://www.bogley.com/forum/showthread.php?55336-Camping-on-Butler-Wash-Road&p=457068#post457068)
I did post a shot of the arrowhead I found 'in-situ' but none of the actual ruin I found. I was really surprised that for how large it was and in Butler Wash....I have not met a person yet who has been there or even knows about it....other that the fella that showed me the one shot of it at his house. I am sure there are many folks that know about this location....but with no trail or tracks and all of the artifacts nearby....it looks like of all the ruins I have ever visited....this gets the least traffic I have ever seen.
I did get back a couple weeks ago to try and get some decent shots this time.....this is a really hard one to shoot. I had to rush as was on my way into Blanding to meet some folks I was guiding for the weekend.
The main thing about this ruin is the Juniper tree trunk / branch that is incorporated into the construction of the front wall. If you have been here before.....you would remember it just from this alone.
