| Abandoned Wigwam Burner - Adin, CA |
A wigwam burner is used to burn waste wood in lumber mills or logging yards. Personally, I think it looks like a GIANT badminton shuttlecock.
Linking to Rubbish Tuesday by Roan. A weekly meme sharing oldies but still goodies.
My apologies to those who visited last week. Time got away from me and I wasn't able to return the visit.
neat-o! i have never seen such a thing. cool!! ( :

I agree about the shuttlecock, but I'd hate to see the rackets! Great capture.
ReplyDeleteGosh I haven't seen one of these in ages and I agree with you it does look like a Giant Badminton shuttlecock. Very cool find.
ReplyDeleteI've seen them, but never knew exactly what they were. Now I know.....Shuttlecocks!
ReplyDeleteNice picture -- in Oregon anyway they can't be used any longer because of air pollution. But I have seen people painting one that is on the way to the Coast from where we lived. I bet their pix aren't as good as your photo though!
