Once you find it, you hit the jackpot because there are gorgeous views of Camels Hump, Honey Hollow, and parts of the Worcester Mountains. I went over to the rocky knoll to take in the scenery as it is just about peak foliage up high. I looked down at my feet at one point and saw a Sam Stone looking right up at me :). It brought me a lot of emotion once I read the website and hit me hard, as I have 2 little boys of my own. However, I also felt a real sense of peace. I thought about taking it and putting it in another special place because I think that\u2019s \u201callowed\u201d, but realized there isn\u2019t a much better spot than this, a place of great beauty, resiliency, and freedom. So I put the stone back in its cozy little place, and I hope Sam is in eternal peace. Thank you for the powerful experience.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"http:\/\/samstones.org\/WordPress1\/wp-content\/uploads\/wpforms\/4745-eabf961cf4eeb49a51bd825b8adab9ed\/IMG_2819-42ed9a270cf4ac7eccc138023b5c25fd.jpeg\" alt=\"Photo 1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Name: Tina Heath Location: At the top of Robbins Mountain, Richmond VT Story: I was hiking up my favorite backyard mountain and made it to the *secret* vista, which you need to bushwack a bit to find.
