A short distance into the hike you will encounter the site of the Ames tank. The rock retaining wall is still inplace and a few pipes are strewn about. The forest service appears to be adding some information to some of the remains. Photo by Dave Dye on June 4, 2005.




Many of the tank bands have been tossed to the side of the grade. This is a closeup of the end of a band and you can see where the adjusting bolts would have attached. Photo by Dave Dye on June 4, 2005.
