this place is cool its a natural wonder i got some nice pics in my member gallery/storage bunker in album purgatory chasm
and the legend goes a little like this................................................................................
Hobomoko (the Native American devil) carried a woman to the chasm because she had murdered a white man.
the woman began to put up a fight ,so Hobomoko smashed her head against a rock and bludgeoned her with his tomahawk.
there is said to be a bowl like depression where he beat her head into the rock ,there are said to be marks where the tomahawk hit the rocks and footprints along the top of the chasm cliff where he carried her body to the edge of the chasm and threw her in. thats the legend
now the bowl and tomahawk marks i didn't notice, but i did notice the footprints i thought they were so much like footprints that i actually stood in them i did not know this place was here i stumbled across it while working in middledtown last week so i didn't know the legend behind the chasm or i would have surely found those ax marks and the bowl and definitely would have took pictures of them as that is the case i will be returning to purgatory chasm this week to document these and they will be added to my gallery and damn it carboncavi if i go on Friday ill drop a dime pal!!
When you go looking for ghosts in these places be sure to be a ghost leave no clues to your existence and dissapear into thin air!!!!

That place is pretty cool, I was there and at lookout rock in the past few months. Both are definitely worth the trip.

Just looked at your pics... that isn't the same Purgatory Chasm that I know... the one I've been to is off of 146 in Mass... where is that Purgatory Chasm?!

Who knew!?  Two Purgatory Chasms.  I was only familiar with the one off of 146.  Nice to know - thanks!
