This one is a bundle of problems, starting from the description as a "historic cultural feature (locale)", which I must say strikes me as inadequate, implying as it does that we don't know what it was. The biggest issue, however, is the location. It's included in the Calaveras County navbox, but the article and the coordinates say that it's in Plumas County. But what is the source of the coordinates? I doubt it's Durham, and he is the only article source. the location given is that of the "McKensie Ranch" on some topos and the "Mohawk Valley Ranch" on more recent ones; at present the site is occupied by the Lodge at Whitehawk. What I can't find is anything that says what this supposed Antelope House was, or even that it was really at this location. Mangoe (talk) 15:29, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete Until March the mass-prodcued page said "is a former settlement and wayside", when it was changed to "historal cultural feature (locale)". Coordinates are accurate from GNIS: It appears on 1891 topo as yes, a single house! Nearby are the Sulphur Spring House, Summit House, ranches, mines, and other non-notable locations, so both descriptions appear to be inaccurate. Only newpapers.com results are for a ruin in Arizona.
