We find some odd things in the wilderness, this old truck hood, the truck cab, then a Busiek there’s an old panel van, and two old nitrogen railroad trucks (imported for use as culverts). It’s not that surprising really as it wasn’t that long ago that the current wildernesses were farmland. The number of stock ponds and rock mounds (rocks are possibly one of the most abundant crops of the Ozarks) are testimony to the hard-working people who used to live here.
