I was first introduced to Monte Cristo and the Robe Valley as a child by my parents. Years later I learned of it's important history and mingled it with images of decaying buildings haunted by whispers of the past in old mining tunnels, deep in the wilderness. Maybe that's when the roots of a story also began.
I have hiked to and fished some of the lakes and streams in this story. I don't think I could avoid it - they're in my backyard. And when you love the wilderness, I suppose that's what you do.
My first view of Twin Lakes, where the King's Tub lies, is one of the most awe inspiring sights I've ever witnessed. But if you plan to hike there, make sure you get your hiking legs in shape before attempting it. I have more stories to tell, poems to write, and hope I'm allowed the time to do so!view less
