Seeing as how it is still early afternoon after any last-minute business in Oakhurst is concluded, the group makes for the mostly ignored Old Road and begins their journey. The overgrown Old Road, which is nothing more than stamped dirt, keeps your progress slow, but steady. After initially passing by a collection of farms, both occupied and unoccupied, the rough trail passes stands of mature oak trees, their leaves now in full bloom as the spring season is nearing its end and summer approaches.
As you continue, your uneventful progress winds you through some gradual rolling hills before a new patch of deciduous trees -- a mixture of oak and maple -- appears off to your right. Just beyond this patchy forest, the Old Road bends to the left as it approaches and follows a narrow ravine.
This ravine runs for several miles in either direction, with an average depth and width of 30-feet. At the point where it most closely intersects the Old Road, it widens to 40 feet. It's at this closest approach to the cleft where the group spots several broken pillars that jut from the earth where the ravine widens. Two of the pillars stand straight, but most lean atop sloped earth. Others are broken, and several have apparently fallen into the dark depths. A few similar pillars are visible on the opposite side of the ravine.
A sturdy, knotted rope is tied to one of the leaning pillars on this side of the ravine
