Walking down the path from Kowloon Pass towards the catchwater, after the path crosses a bridge there's a small, dark depression in the bank on the right of the path. It is close to one of the granite hiking trail markers, visible at bottom left.
I saw this on our walk this morning. I thought it was a new tunnel to explore, but once I got close the smooth rounded walls and sooty interior showed it is another charcoal kiln. It's the second one I've seen along this stretch of the Wilson Trail - the other one is a bit further south.
When they're still in their original condition, I don't think I'd notice them. It's only when they get older and the roof falls in that they are easy to spot. Then I expect after a few years they will completely collapse and will be invisible again.
Here's how it looks from the path (facing towards Sha Tin).
After getting excited on Monday about finding a charcoal kiln on Jat's Incline, I found a second one yesterday. Let's see if this is just a lucky fluke, or if more appear now I know what I'm looking for.
Walking down Jat's Incline this morning, I noticed a small section of the hillside had collapsed after the recent rainy weather.
