Documented folklore from the Club 49 map, told straight and sourced.
From 1857 to 1889 a silent man in a sixty-pound suit of stitched leather walked the same 365-mile clockwise loop through western Connecticut and eastern New York, roughly every thirty-four days, sleeping in a chain of rock shelters that still bear his name. He took food at the same doors on the same schedule and almost never spoke; his real identity was never learned. The caves are real and marked; the man remains a mystery.
The loop between the Connecticut and Hudson rivers (CT / NY). Source: A documented historical figure whose identity is still unknown. The Club 49 map pins this legend at its documented country, beside the real mines, active claims, land status and modeled honey holes of the same ground. Open the free map and go stand in the story.
