My group used to hunt back in the mid 90's. I live pretty far away now, but now with Google Earth, it's pretty easy to map this stuff and I'm trying to do just that.
I just want to confirm what my group believes to be Hell's Gates (The Gates). If you see my previous reply to the "Four Arches" thread, I don't know of a Four Arches that is close to the Carbon/Diamond area.
A single railroad line connects "Four Arches" with at least two of the Gates.
The Water Gate:
The first Gate is located on N. Rock Run Church Road where the road goes under the railroad tracks (the same tracks that eventually lead to The Four Arches).
39°35'28.33"N Latitude
87°10'36.30"W Longitude
The Stone Gate:
The second Gate is located on Greencastle Road (W County 1350 North) about a mile and a quarter west of the first gate.
39°35'17.89"N Latitude
87°11'57.18"W Longitude
The Fire Gate:
As for the Fire Gate, I have two problems: one of them is that we nearly got the nuts kicked out of us at the Fire Gate, and the second problem is that I don't remember where it is.
If the first two gates line up with someone else's experiences, that'd be great to know. If you can pinpoint the Fire gate for me, that'd be even better.
I've heard that "Klan" meet at the Three Arches in Greencastle and sacrifice babies, etc. I've heard this about the Fire Bridge, too. Is it really the Klan? I doubt it. The Klan I know wouldn't want to have to carry their beer that far.
Are they devil worshippers or other insane persons? I don't know. The guys that came after us looked like regular hilljacks. Maybe they are sick of people coming out and looking at the bridges.
They didn't say "get the f**k out of here" or anything, though, they just seemed like they wanted to pick a fight with some townies. I don't know.
