When we came across this battered old truck dangling high in the trees, far from civilization on the Lost Coast, it had us wondering how it got up there and whether we might be the next victims of some supernatural force lurking in the woods. Luckily, it was put up there by humans. Years ago, the land owner Dr. Dick Sheinman and his kids removed the engine and transmission from a late 1970s Ford F-150 pickup to lighten the load, then hoisted it up in the trees securing it by cables, and there it has stood ever since. Some might call it an oddity, others a piece of art. All we know is, it’s one of the more intriguing things we’ve encountered while out exploring in the woods.
