One night, not long in the past, a park ranger was alerted to a hound baying deep in the hollow of Old Man’s Cave. He made his way from the park office and along the dark trail to search it out, flashlight in hand and following the howls until he was sure the dog was just within reach. Louder, the cries rang out, circling the ranger whose flashlight caught no sign of the dog in its beam. Then suddenly, the howls stopped as quickly as they had begun. He had come face to face with a legend—the baying hound of Old Man’s Cave.
