This looks to me like a view of problems at Cucaracha. This hill on the right looks like a very young Gold Hill. Looks like a big rain has occurred as the base line of the Cut digging is flooded. Cucaracha has been a problem for the Canal since day one. Very unstable ground. I have searched this area extensively looking for old bottles and artifacts through the years. My buddy and I found a couple of very nice bottle dumps here. I dug 15 "Dog Bottles" out of one hole. You can really feel the ghosts of days gone by while being in this area. |
