Revisited the Rocky Knob Cabins off the Blue Ridge Parkway today and what a sad scene. We parked at the entrance at the top of the road and hiked in. My understanding was the outside owners decided to stop renting about 10 years ago and sold all the furnishings from the cabins. Once the barracks for parkway workers in 1936. A piece of history fading away. The same people have investment interest in Mabry Mill which is dire need of repairs. Hate to see one of the most photographed site on the parkway will end up closing in a few years. So sad.

For anyone thinking about stopping to look for the wagon tracks at California Hill, here's a cut and paste May 2023 review I did on another site. I hope it helps - "We have followed several parts of the Oregon - California - Mormon Trail over the years, including on a recent trip west in May of '23. We did a few sites we'd missed on previous trips, such as the pioneer museum that arches over I-80 in Kearney, Nebraska, and almost all of the major trail sites from California Hill west to Devil's Gate and Martin's Cove, Wyoming. At California Hill, there is an "unmaintained" dirt road that comes up the hill from the historical marker on US 30 just west of Brule, NE. Some reviewers on other sites say don't come up that road unless you have 4WD. I think that's a little overly dramatic unless it is obviously muddy. Use your own judgement. It had rained the day before we were there but we came up that road in a mini van and did not get stuck, although there were a couple of muddy spots that we went around. I'm from the Midwest and am used to driving in snow and mud, so we did not get stuck. I can see how some may, however. In fact, we missed the pedestrian access point in the fence and went about 1/2 mile farther up that dirt road than we had to, realized the mistake, and came back to the access point without too much difficulty. However, your results may vary. If you have any doubt, leave your vehicle at the US 30 historical marker and walk up. Anyway, the walk-through access point in the fence is not well marked, or marked at all, so it's easy to miss. It's on the west side of that dirt road about 1/4 mile off US 30. The fence makes a slight jog away from the road, and at that jog there are plywood sheets bolstering the fence. At first it looks like you can't get through, but there is just enough room left between the overlapping plywood sheets that a reasonably slim person can squeeze through the zig zag in the fence, but cattle can't. From there, follow the faint wheel tracks NW up the hill toward the faint notch in the ridge. Be careful of cow patties, ground cactus, and from what I read, the possibility of rattlesnakes. I saw plenty of the first two things and none of the last. Neither the tracks up to the notch nor the notch itself are marked. There is a sign post near the notch as you walk up the hill from the fence access, but there is no sign or anything else attached to the post. There was an old metal sign on the ground near the post, but it was so old and faded I could not read it. It doesn't matter anyway, because if you're at the sign post that means you already found the wagon tracks and notch. I might not have found the notch if I had not had GPS on my phone. There was a pinpoint in the middle of that field on my GPS, so I walked NW up the ridge from the fence access point until I was at that pinpoint. That's when I noticed the notch in the hill and the sign post that no longer has a sign on it. It's not nearly as dramatic as the wagon ruts on up the Oregon Trail near Guernsey, Wyoming, but it's worth a stop and short walk if you're interested in that chapter in history."

Stayed at Swift Current Motor Inn last night (June 14, 2023). Wifi is spotty and only available in the lobby of the office where you go to check-in and out. Definitely no cell phone service. I stayed in a room (motel building) that had an adjoining room. The sliding doors (one on each side) between the two rooms had simply latches. Plus, there was a small gap between the frame and the door. I could peek into the other room via this sliver. Obviously, any loud conversation in one room would carry to the other. As for hiking, I did the hike to Iceberg Lake. It was raining and as I got up in elevation, it was sleeting. I did see two young moose on the way up and two Bighorn Sheep on the way down.

I remember one winter, the pipes froze, so Mom send us out to forage for snow, which she would melt on top of the stove for water (tea, baths, etc).

People were kicking at them some fed them it was really nasty. I asked our waitress. She told us that the manager saw them as wildlife and forbade anyone from killing them Some people just do not know when to say when.
