Cool find! I want to keep searching for logging camps, RR spurs going to camps and forests etc. Homesteads would be an attraction.
Down near you on the backroads is the ghosttown of Deward. Last time I was there some 30yrs ago there pock holes all over the place from slob, rude diggers. They left it looking ravaged. Interesting history there, out in the boonies.
