When we finished up at Bickel Camp (and after we ate lunch), we all headed to Burro Schmidt's Tunnel. It broke my heart when I pulled up to the place. Having been there before the destruction and once shortly after it started, the amount of further devastation was sickening.

I can't find my original before pictures, but here are some that are posted online.

These pictures were taken inside the cabin. All of these artifacts are gone, either stolen or destroyed.

This is Toni Seger's cabin as it stands now. Tonis Cabin To see what it looked like at its peak, click here: http://www.burroschmidttunnel.org/bill-gann-bst-2.jpg

Even though the cabin is fenced off, while everyone else was exploring the tunnel, I snuck in and took these shots. I was in this place once, visiting the owner before she died, and while it was never the Taj Mahal, it was a home. Now? Well, judge for yourself.

Apparently, the cabins aren't the only items being taken or destroyed. There are rails that Burro Schmidt placed in his famous tunnel, to remove debris. These, too, are being stolen.

These signs are now posted on the fence that surrounds the site. Unfortunately, only those of us who care about such things take heed.
