The Merry Pranksters' cabin. Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and his Merry Pranksters moved into this log cabin just outside town in 1962. His transient residents included Neal Cassady, who was the inspiration for Jack Kerouac's novel On The Road; The Warlocks, who became the Grateful Dead; Hell's Angels; and Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson-who described Kesey's home in La Honda as "the world capital of madness. There were no rules, fear was unknown, and sleep was out of the question." Kesey eventually went to jail for marijuana possession and was forbidden from returning to La Honda by the terms of his probation in 1967. Courtesy Bob Dougherty M.A. '91, MBA '96.
