Many of those buildings are in this book http://books.google.com/books?id=jr...Canyon#v=onepage&q=San Timoteo Canyon&f=false

Hi ferret,
I have that book as well, but that is not the " in depth " one. There is another one with a map of from one end of the canyon to the other, and points out all the spots. As it says in the book though, soon this will all be " developed " so that is why I'm trying to get to this now before it's toooooo late....

I found that book also but noticed that you had it already. I swear, just about every time you post a new thread, I kick myself for moving away from California. Let us know what you find.

Wow, i would love to hunt there with you. First thing I thought was "mmmm, pigs. Nothing better than shooting a wild pig and cooking it while backpacking". Then you posted about "no hunting".......lol

So, did anyone ever get out there? PLL, I love your pics of the area!

As with many opportunities, I never hooked up with pegleglooker...looks like it would be a great winter or spring hunt...

Wait to see if peg leg replies...he may have hunted the old places...

Hi Gang,
I did go out there, but my detector broke down... There is a lot of area to go through and if anyone would like to go, just let me know...

Thx

I would love to hit that place!

I was doing some research...and I found this environmental impact report www.cpuc.ca.gov/Environment/info/aspen/elcasco/pea/pea3-05.pdf, sounds like they were planning on building out there and tearing down those houses. I don't think they qualified as historical as did the schoolhouse. Very interesting history on the area and who specifically lived there. Has anyone seen the area lately? I'm thinking that because of the financial crisis they may not have continued the project?

Wow, great information. Looks like Rush Woodhouse is responsible for the wild pig problem there. Says he raised Hogs on the land. Want to bet they are descendants of said hogs.

Right, I figured the same thing! Escapees!

tapoutking · Jan 11, 2012

Yup. I'd be just as happy to hunt coins etc as I would be Hog..

Make a day out of it.. Everyone out hunting with MD's while roasting a fresh hog over a pit. :icon_thumright:

Nuggets4me · Jan 11, 2012

You really want one of those hogs dontcha?

Alright well, you let me know when you get rid of ALL of them. Then I will check it out.

P.S. Save me some ham.

tapoutking · Jan 12, 2012

I do LOL! You got it. :wink:

treasurechest · Jan 16, 2012

I'm with tapout. I want to go out there and use the md AND hog hunt. I've got my pig tag ready, and my stomach is growling for some bacon. How do you get to Timoteo canyon anyways? and FYI for anyone out on jackrabbit trail, I saw a mountain lion there last weekend. First time I've ever seen one in the wild. Just keep an eye out for it.

treasurechest · Jan 22, 2012

I went there yesterday and found the farm that pegleglooker posted. No, I didn't detect. The entire place is posted every six feet with those stupid signs. But, I found this! This plaque is on the wall by the little fishing lake.

it's hard to read, because I took the pic with my cell phone. Wyatt Earp really was in that canyon.

Three Questions!

1.) Were the houses still there?
2.) Why didn't you detect?
3.) What signs? No hunting?
