Itinerary description

From: Trails End Campground
To: Standing Stone
Up trail 47 we took a wrong turn at Winona post office but got back on track. From 47 we took 58 which was a pretty rough climb to 29 then a short ride to 27 a little ways down 27 we final found Standing Stone. We stopped I believe on 29 and hiked up to some caves my wife spotted. We didn't find any deep caves but we did find a cool fisher in a huge rock that we climbed through. After a littler lunch at Standing Stone we headed further down 27 to 20 where we spotted a couple isolated ponds and luckily I brought my fishing poles (never leave home without one). I caught a small bass and skunked the wife. :) then proceeded on to 47 and back to camp. This was a great ride that took most of the day.

We talked to an old man who grew up in the area and he said this was the site of an old school house.
