For a long time, locals assumed the cross visible on a hillside down in that area was the marker of the horse's grave, but that is NOT true. That cross was placed there long after the Howard family sold the ranch, and the Howards kept the burial place a closely guarded secret. It remains a secret even today, but Seabiscuit's statue can now be seen where it once stood, near the house where Charles S. Howard lived.

I understand it's very close to Willits, and that his gravesite can actually be seen from 101.<BR/><BR/>On a different note: I corrected my comments regarding King Abdullah on my own blog; I had to look up information about him for an article I wrote for this week's edition of The Independent (Garberville), so I credited you for catching my errors.<BR/><BR/>Keep taking great pics!Cristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251922401043187480noreply@blogger.com
