In this day and age the logs in the trestle alone would have made a lovely park in some oregonian jurisdiction.

North Head, site of new lighthouse

Pixel Wrangler said:
"The North Head Lighthouse was built in response to a marked increase in the number of shipwrecks along the Peninsula as mariners coming from the north could not see the Cape Disappointment light" – located two miles to the south.
North Head Light was completed in 1898 – three years after this photograph was taken.
Property markers at North Head Light bear the initials LHE, for Lighthouse Establishment, the original name for the government body overseeing lighthouses in the United States.
