<span style="background-color: #cccccc;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The corners are angled. The entire room is probably 7 X 9 ft. I'm wondering if it was a cellar, an ice house, not likely with a chimney, or is it a vent. It's entirely underground, maybe a bunker of sorts, storage for moonshine? There was an old porcelain battery cover lying outside the cave. What's your guess?</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: #b6d7a8;"> <span style="font-size: large;">There were several foundation locations, we found at least half a dozen. Was this a location of homes, a resort, logging camp? Dad once told the family that there used to be several homes along here.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #b6d7a8; font-size: large;">Interesting., but we all are still stumped by the bunker. I say it was moonshine storage. It's a bit more interesting a story to tell than an ice house.</span><br />
