No I this was found downstream on the other side of the pond. Basically where the trail race seems to start. The picture I took looking upstream at the bridge is basically where we found it and there was much more there.

The same thing happened to me. I confirmed through the phone and she was very helpful.

You're right. Nature always surprises me. A straight line that comes down at a 90 degree angle to me screams man made and if that second line was intact a few inches more it would all but confirm it to me. But either way my 9 year old daughter has been googling slag and agrees it's not slag but...

Thanks for all the input. It did seem more like stone than true slag. But the straight line seems more man made. Also the line seems to be coming down at a 90 degree angle, again not natural, to me at least. And if you look there is another line starting but is broken off. It only travels an...

I never thought of that. I even thought it could be part of a casting too.

I wasn't sure what else to call it. It's got a ton of sand in it. What would you consider it? It is definitely beyond my knowledge.

While to me it looks more like stone, to me it seems like it's definitely man made some how. Whether it's a form of slag something else I'm not sure.

My daughter kept a piece for school. I'll get a picture of it tonight.

They are raised about an 1/8th inch almost as if it cooled and settled in between bricks

I was thinking it had a lot of sand in it to be slag. I assume ironstone is also a byproduct from the manufacturing process. I picked up a piece that definitely had straight parallel lines that surely weren't natural. To me it almost looks like sand was added as it cooled to make it easier to...

Welcome to the forums and thanks for thinking I'm out there only some of the time;) I have to admit I sometimes get worked up from the PPA's propaganda depicting anyone who opposes the map as peple that just want to be able to drive anywhere. There are a lot of people here that simply want fair...

Don, I did search downstream a bit with the kids but we had to cut it short since the Mrs was starting to feel under the weather and had to sit it out in the jeep. There seems to be a lot of slag exposed there and I'm assuming it was used as fill. There seems to be a race way through it but...

Yes I did take notice of it. And we explored downstream a bit too.

Yes it is.

There moving up stream from Locks Bridge. They've recently started a new dam.

That could be. I'd like to check if I could feel a flow when the water high.

One of my closest friends was with me on a two week assignment for forest fires in Wyoming. We arrived to camp around midnight and went straight to sleep. Unfortunately he slept right on top of a huge ant hill. The next morning after we got up he realized he had an ant in his pants and smacked...

Yep that's it. In your video the water is even lower then it is now. I was thinking I read it here before but couldn't remember.

We spent a few hours today at Locks today. The beavers are very active out there. We ran into the Superchooches and the kids had a great time together. With the low water there seems to be a natural spring right at the bridge I'd love to take credit in finding it but Mrs Superhooch was the...

We're planning on going. We went last year and the kids had a good time.
