This is a quick park and grab near the intersection of Lake Hughes and Ridge Route Road. It is in memory of the Lazy Z Ranch which was located where the Stonegate community is today (Stonegate is across the street from the cache). William Willoby Jenkins settled the land in 1878. This land belonged to members of the Jenkins family until the early 1960's when it was sold to Newhall Land and Farm. In 1997 a developer was having the property directly above Stonegate graded for the Northstar community project. During the grading the human remains of 4 adult males and 1 infant were discovered in a forgotten cemetary. It appears that the human remains were members of the Jenkins family, who were probably killed in the neighboring fued between the Jenkins, Roses and Chormicles. The family fueds were over a parcel of land and they lasted for several years. For the whole story visit (visit link)
