Does anyone remember when the “hotshots” from Sacramento damn near burned down Ruth with their back burning forestry expertise. Green Diamond and Wright both poach local timber off landholders properties while sleeping on the side of the road in trucks in remote areas and gouging the tax dollars. The amount of half assed work and mess they left I seen them perform is laughable.
Google maps doesn’t show a Sproul Creek road, just Sprowl Creek road. There is an area called Sproul Creek which is news to me. So confusing. 🤦♂️
The area was settled by the Sproul family. The new commers don’t know history so they just assume the locals are ignorant. Which is mostly true.
It is the same road. It is also spelled Sprowel
