Kobae lives here. This is the third house built for him. Inside towards the back there is a couple foot drop off and then at least a 35 foot long tunnel that he dug.

This is where the first lodge fire pit was. In time the Colorado chipmunks moved into the wood pile. I'd feel bad each time I would take a piece of wood out for the fire pit giving them a little bit less protection from predators so the fire pit was moved and the chipmunks like the new fire pit wood pile better so they moved over to it.

This is the wildlife vs wildlife cemetery. Ravens would kill a hawk and I'd bury it here. Hawk would kill a duck, here. Raccoons a baby skunk, here. I'd dig a hole, put the deceased critter in a bag, seal it up good and place it in the hole. Put some dirt and then pepper on top, more dirt, more pepper, and a large rock to keep from having it dug up.

Some time ago some check in guests showed up around midnight. They ask me to step outside so we could talk. The couple said there dog had died on top of Hurrah Pass on the way here. They knew it's time was coming and they were driving around to give it a good ending. They tried everything to bring it back but were unsuccesful. They came back from the hogan in the morning and the three os us began diffing a hole. They ask me to bow out, they wanted to dig the hole. They were crying while they were digging and I was crying watching them.I walked away to give them privacy. When I returned they had taken all the rocks off all the previously deceased and put them all on Dexter. I never said anything and when they had checked out I restored as much as I could and have added some critters to it since that evening.
