my house in Yreka, CA (Yreka is definitely an Odd name, too). Members from its various lodges meet there once a year for a Mystic Convention. (They have to drive over an easement route that crosses one of my lots.) One summer day, having been told I could get up to the Cave, I hiked across the canyon and made my way up a rickety staircase into the cave, which is actually quite small but gives a panoramic view of the hills. Walking back down, I realized the stairs were built in quite an Odd manner, off-camber and pulling away from the mountain, out into empty space, rather than being anchored to the ground. I suddenly became dizzy and had to crawl down partways on my hands and knees. Made it down on FAITH alone.

A few photos of the cave, although the spooky staircase is not fully shown.
