I've been at this location for Pow wow's as well as Historical events. But most of all this was my quiet spot when I was a child. I didn't live far from the trail, so I'd walk the trail down to Fort Willow, walk up the crazy amount of stairs, and enjoy the view at the top. It used to be my hideaway, where no one could find me and I could be alone with my thoughts. I brought my kids here awhile

Use to collect old relics back when I was in school. My old teacher became in charge of the excavation process. Someone back in the day destroy many relics while excavating this area. This place may very well be haunted due to a mysterious burial ground that's never bin discover here.

This fort was on an episode of Creepy Canada and is apparently haunted. So far the only other presence I have felt here is the unmistakable sting of mosquitoes.

Great place to visit and ponder. I have been here several times, so much to explore.
