'''Warlock Country''', also often referred to as Warlock Woods, was a name given to the large patch of woods that covered the areas north and south of Lavallet subdivision to north of Wimbledon Drive, then east of the then-unpaved Spanish Trail to west of Scenic Highway. The name became popular during the mid-to-late 1960's, and lasted until the mid-to-late 70's. How the area got it's name is subject to conjecture, but is most likely a hoax. There were no serious reports of actual, effective witchcraft that took place there, although a few groups of black-hooded, late-night candle-burners were rumored to have gathered there. The area was mostly used as a getaway for teenagers who needed a place to illegally consume alcohol, race cars and motorcycles, and just act wild. What could have added to it's mystique was the fact that much of it was on a rolling, hilly terrain, and had many winding trails. This was also when there was still much wildlife such as foxes, and maybe even a few wolves (as late as the 1980's, there were actual reports of wolves in that area). All in all, it was mostly just a large undeveloped patch of woods that the frequenters didn't want any little children going to.
