LOST IN TIME Narrated by Peter Coyote
Ed Stiles, a scruffy octogenarian, is the last man standing in a remarkable ghost town in California’s Muir Woods. It’s not on any map, and entrance is forbidden. Called Druid Heights, it was a place where hedonism and spirituality coexisted. A charismatic, saxophone-playing playboy presided over wild parties and a cast of eccentric storybook characters – the influencers of the 60’s and 70’s counterculture. Jack Kerouac wrote about them in The Dharma Bums. It was a mecca to The Beats, Zen masters, feminist warriors, famous musicians, LSD outlaws and even porn stars. Now owned by the National Parks Service, its madcap architecture may all be bulldozed back to nature. This is the untold story of Paradise Found, and soon, perhaps Paradise Lost.
