Ever since I posted about going to the Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve and walking the Labyrinth there, I have gotten many questions about it and labyrinths in general. So, I decided to make a web page.

Mostly I think this will be just a collection of information that I had a hard time finding on my own. The map is the only thing I haven’t been able to find anywhere else. Some sites seem to focus on the importance of searching and finding them on your own. I get the feeling I might be stepping on some toes by posting info. I say, “Phooey, don’t care.” I am not a hiker. I will go to places I know or have guides but not “in search of”. I don’t have that kind of energy. If you want the mystery of searching them out for yourselves, don’t click on the link. If you want an idea where to find it, that is what it is there for.
I have been trying to find the time to go and “do” the Labyrinth myself for a while now. I have visited a few before. There is a very fine hedge maze in Vancouver that I am fond of and the corn mazes come October ar always a blast.
The thing about these labyrinths is there are no walls. They are just designs of the floor. You don’t even have to stay in the lines. There are no dead ends, no tricks, just a path winding to the center and the same path back out. It is my understanding that this is was a labyrinth really is and the others are mazes and they are not the same thing.
