A day was spent in the sunshine and shade of towering pine trees as we hiked a well-traveled trail on Cape Arago Highway to the site of a deserted World War II Lookout Bunker. Men stood guard in this bunker during the war, keeping a close eye on the Oregon coastline for the threat of enemy invasion. And, although roofless now, this sturdy concrete three room structure stand tall and proud, all wall intact and the smokestacks standing against the backdrop of the forest, very much the same as it did in WWII.
Rumors of this location being haunted have been whispered about for decades. And, after hearing some of the EVP I recorded there, I must concur that there is something "other worldly" that remains within the concrete confines of the bunker.
However, whether you believe it or not, the hike it beautiful and invigorating, and a quite, historic location to stop for lunch before continuing on the 2.5 mile hike that leads you to 400 feet above sea level.
