Following the C&S Railway from the rock wall to a telegraph pole (Part 4) video

Part 4 of this series follows the DSP&P/C&S route from the large rock wall to one of the few remaining telegraph poles along the line.  Numerous rock cribbing walls on the uphill side, most of which are still intact over a century after their construction, are pointed out as well as one stone culvert site and one wooden culvert site.

Ah, a visit to where I spent the weekend of my 21st birthday (6/5/82). Just past the stone culvert noted where there is a parking area. Snow was too deep to get much higher. Best birthday ever.
