Amazing discovery in Hazelwood

Yesterday I went for a run. The weather was perfect and unseasonably warm for late January. I found myself in Hazelwood.

the lower portion of the steps closest to Irvine St.

The lower portion of the steps closest to Irvine street is inaccessible. Allegheny Fence Company which resides on Irvine street has erected a fence blocking the steps. Imagine that.

If you feel like exploring these steps yourself, do it in the winter. If you try during the warmer months, chances are the overgrowth will be too thick. The best bet for reaching the location is to take Sylvan Street from Hazelwood. Follow the trail and be careful of the mud. You could also reach the location from the other side of the trail in Greenfield. Theoretically, you can find the steps from the top of the hill by Tasso Street but it feels a lot like trespassing. You'll have to go through someone's back yard.  Just be careful.
