Deer abound there as well as in the canyon which seems to be a migratory route. Come visit the land of the hoodoos. Few people have. The hoodoos, as the natural rock of fantastic shapes are called, are to be seen in a little canyon situated a few miles off the oiled road that runs between Bear Creek golf course and Pearrygin Lake on the east side of the Methow River. It s called Pipestone Canyon.
Nobody knows for sure.
Some say Indians found some rock in the area ideal for making pipes. They d stick a stem of the Rosethorn plant into the pipes and smoke them. Others think the unusual pattern of the rock forming the rim of the canyon resemble organ pipes. But it makes up for its short length in the weird shapes forming the 1500 foot high walls that it offers to the sightseers. He s studied the canyon as much as anyone.
