Yes please do. I will be driving my family out to Tennessee within the next couple months. I will pass through again if I can get more info.scott715 wrote:There are service missionaries there. They should know. We have a returned couple I can ask at stake conference.
If the place wasn't covered with snow. I probably would have found the foundation like Sno and be looking at my souvenir at this moment.

Re: Adam-ondi-Ahman
If I remember correctly, there is a plaque on the hilltop that points you in the right direction "The foundation of the Lyman house still lies due West of this marker" or something to that effect.BigCougsFan wrote:Yes please do.

Re: Adam-ondi-Ahman
Yes there is. Everything is covered in snow. So when I went down there, I couldn't see a thing, other than the landscape. There looked to be a clearing where I thought it was, but can't say for certain.snoscythe wrote:If I remember correctly, there is a plaque on the hilltop that points you in the right direction "The foundation of the Lyman house still lies due West of this marker" or something to that effect.BigCougsFan wrote:Yes please do.

Re: Adam-ondi-Ahman
It's not in a clearing....no where near it. There was an 8" diameter tree growing in the middle of the foundation. You really have to look for it. You could walk within 5 feet of it and not notice unless you were looking close. We went in the spring, and it was nearly buried in leaves from the previous Fall.BigCougsFan wrote:Yes there is.

Re: Adam-ondi-Ahman
There is a road at the bottom. Do you remember if you passed that or not? On the other side of the road, the Church posted no trespassing signs.

Re: Adam-ondi-Ahman
Don't recall one way or another whether we crossed a road or not--it was 15ish years ago. It does seem to me that it was on the side of the same hill as the plaque.

Re: Adam-ondi-Ahman
My sister-in-law and husband were there on a mission. We went to visit and got a personal tour. We talked a lot about such legends and rumors. You might want to not worry too much about them. Anything resembling an original rock from an alter has long been part of Sno's souvenier collection. Anything you might find there now has been planted. Don't put too much stock in the other rumors you have heard either.
