That's an interesting link. It would have been cool to see the sign on that plate. There is a pole, no plate, up the Dry Fork of Blackwater as well. I'm guessing it was on an old motor rout to Skidoo, but there's also hints of a road and a couple of rusted out vehicles from the Dry Fork to Harrisburg. My hiking companions doubted when I suggested that the driveable route went down to the valley floor, but coming upon the (vacant) sign post convinced them. It would have pointed one way to Skidoo (that's the way we went) and the other to Harrisburg. We took the Skidoo side, and then walked the old pipeline back to Harrisburg where we had parked. Nice day hike.
