Haroldstown submitted by KenWilliams on 27th Aug 2005. Taken 26th August 2005, just after nightfall. Using flash on the outside and torchlight on the inside, I took quite anumber of shots with this combination and also with single light sources. Not entirely sure which ones worked and which are OTT but I liked this one in particular because my dog managed to sneak into the frame when I was otherwise busy!

Log Text: Second visit. I was also here in March 2004. The weather was much finer on this visit, but the ambiance was somewhat marred by the large crowds dropped at the site by large numbers of tour buses.

Log Text: I visited on a weekday morning in overcast conditions. In March the vegetation is not as thick as it appears to get later in the year. The trail from the trail head rapidly becomes the spring itself, and although there are places along the left hand bank heading down to the site, You are likely to get your feet wet if there has been recent rain in the area.
This is a beautiful site, with a large pool at the confluence. At this point the Agua Fria canyon is not particularly deep, but at other locations the river is cut deeply into the mesa.

Log Text: Tremper Mound is now open to the public with outdoor museum quality kiosks explaining the site's importance both as a natural and cultural site. The site was purchased by the Arc of Appalachia organization over several years by buying separate parcels. Fences around and over the mound and enclosure itself have been removed. The nearby Pond Creek trail is easily accessible.
Study of the site after purchase revealed that a small portion of the enclosure surrounding the mound still exists (much reduced in height) and mowing of vegetation highlights both the extend of the mound and enclosure.
Visitors may visit during daylight hours with parking in a graveled lot off of State Road 73 on the east side of the site.
