Ahh the power of tapatalk!

Parbr... That was great. I'm cruising through town and had a feeling that wasn't someone out on a weekend cruise. lost you then saw you blow by me while I checked where the heck I was at that gas station. Then it was on. I got so lost again.. Ended up at some military hunt weekend thing, those guys didn't like me, then finally locked up the rear for about 20yards sliding into keefer road. Still don't know how I found it.

Even so I saw what I thought were bike rips up that road and boogied through only to realize I had no cell reception at that site. I posted on the way home at a gas stop.

Even so (direction hint) my ride back through Michaux state forest on the way home was great.

Here is the drop. If the view and blurry sign don't have someone on it in a few days ill, give a better pic.

Please provide more information.... I'm going to play the "bad guy" here... I can't get any info from your picture, so guessing only someone local would have a clue. The map keeper would want information from the grab unless the person that posted it, puts it up. I believe it falls to the "grabber." If you have better pics of the sign, they would be appreciated. If not, at least provide some sort of clue.....

Is this enough? I have better clues.

Sorry I'm not a good tag grabber.. I'm a much better pickle grabber.

Judging by the plaques on the clock tower, it's obviously a memorial

and that looks like the Boiling Springs Tavern. I wonder if that's the Veteran's Memorial Clock Tower in Boiling Springs.

Keefer Road and Bear Valley Road in Buchanan State Forest. Address would list it as Upper Strasbourg.

40.036N 77.781W.

Here is my proof:




Not that it matters.

Lots of native brook trout fishing around there. It's one of my favorite areas.

Drop



You can get to this old iron furnance the easy way or the adventurous way. It is in Michaux State Forest. The easy way is only about 100 yards or so from a paved road. The adventurous way is miles and miles of gravel. The gravel road is called Big Pond Road. Beware that if you choose the easy way there are two places where Big Pond meets the paved road. Take the wrong one and you will miss the tag. Choose wisely and have fun.

It was 35* when I left to grab the tag this AM. I wish the TW charging system could run heated gloves.
