Was up at the Scarborough house this weekend for our 27th anniversary. Didn't go to the top of the hill but did go to the dam that is up the trail. There are buried pipes going up to the dam. Looks like the military built it for fresh water.

After walking the trail I have a feeling that Scarborough probably didn't go to far up the trail if he even buried it outside. The house itself and everywhere around it going towards the river has more than likely been plowed by the military back in the day. They moved a huge amount of Earth

So next I think I'm going to try to find some maps to maybe narrow down the area a little and try to see what it look like or get an idea of what it looked like when he lived there.

Here is a couple pictures of the dam and the water that is being held back
