Ok. Hands up everyone who knows where Rider Gulch is. Hmmm Didn’t see one hand up.

Rider Gulch is not far from Westport. Go up Wages Creek and hang a right.

Topo Map showing Rider Gulch

In days of old there was a mill there. Here’s the photos that show I am telling the truth.

Now before you go to the next photo look back at the map. Could the log pond be the body of water in Rider Gulch near Wages Creek?

Until I got hold of the photos I too had never heard of Rider Gulch and I have struggled only a few yards up Wages Creek. So, if there is anyone who knows better than I please contact me.
