Country: Greece (Central Greece)
Visited: Couldn't find on 30th May 2000

Country: United States (The South)
Visited: Couldn't find on 1st Sep 2009
Windover (Florida) submitted by bat400_photo on 9th Jan 2014. "This is a peat bog accidentally discovered in 1982 which preserved the burials of native americans 7,000 to 8,000 years ago. It is located in dense woods and hard to find ... but locals who are proud of the site will help you find it."

Log Text: I drove passed this site multiple times without knowing it (while hunting for it!) Despite the pond's location directly along a paved road through a housing estate, there is no place to stop and look at the pond without walking through a private home's back garden or "bushwacking" through Florida underbrush. As described in the site listing, you are better off visiting the Brevard County History and Science Museum and asking them if any visits to the site are planned.

Cahokia - Mound 66
Trip No.2 Entry No.10 Date Added: 30th May 2017
Site Type: Artificial Mound
Country: United States (Great Lakes Midwest)
Visited: Saw from a distance on 1st Jul 2008. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 2
Log Text: From aerial photos this is one of the larger mounds at Cahokia. And although it is not on an easily accessible footpath, it can be seen from Forest Blvd., south of the modern Cahokia park. It lies at the southern boundary of the city proper and is 430' by 170' (east-west by north-south) and 25-30 feet high.
In the early 1900's a raised road or causway could be seen extending north from this mound toward the central area of Cahokia. The causeway was more recently confirm by Lidar imaging.
The mound was excavated in the 1920's and a great unfilled trench through the mound can still be seen. This excavation was performed because it appeared that expansion by the nearby rail road was scheduled to completely level the mound. This did not occur.
The mound had been used for burials: both the ancient people of Cahokia and the more recent French colonists.

Log Text: Balcony House is in an alcove directly below a road where people park to take the tour. As a result, you cannot see it from that location. If you cannot take the guided tour (which is possibly the most physically demanding of the short Ranger Led tours) you can take a short hike (about 3/4 of a mile, one way) to the Soda Canyon overlook of Balcony House.
The hike is relatively flat on a well defined sand and dirt track. When you get to the Soda Canyon edge, Balcony House is clearly visible, but binoculars are needed to see the details of the building. There are also several other, much smaller cliff dwellings in the canyon walls and visible from points on the trail.
