Intrepid virtual bikers braved the November elements to trace the whereabouts of the elusive Leechtown ghost-site. The trip out was nice, but torrential rain on the way back taxed the men and women of steel. Leechtown appears to be a clearing with extensive growth of broom. The only relic was a large metal piece of equipment with the words "gold duster #1" on it. We tried to go further down te trail only to get to a very unstable bridge (once you were across you saw a nice big sign that says "bridge closed" for pedestrians coming from the other side!). Finally you come to a fence around the water reservoir area witha lrage red gate. We tried to scale it, but alas that was the end of the road and we headed back for a soggy ride to our car.
