[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1406734, member: 4362"] I walked through some property today that is virtually inaccessible and has been considered inaccessible since the War for Southern Independence because this area was used as a camp for draft dodgers during the war. Local history says there was a camp on an island somewhere near where this picture was taken where the men hid till the war was over. I haven't found the camp yet but I hope to find it so I can root around for some relics. Having been known to be a hard area to get to its obvious from the number of old intact moonshine stills we've found so far the revenue agents never bothered to come here. While its rough as a cob for a mile or so once you get into the area its actually park like and is something worth seeing. While the stills are old and in disrepair everything is just as they left things which is sort of spooky in a sense but its neat in that its like you stepped back in time. Anyhow, here is a picture of one of the stills I thought someone might find interesting.
