A picture is worth a thousand words

We had planned an anniversary picnic, but not being sure if we'd get rained out by the periodic and unpredictable cloudbursts (with beautiful sun in between) we instead explored old mining roads.



This one, as you can see, leads to a mining clam.

(rachelmanija, please appreciate the gratuitous antler on this sign.)

We did not bother the clams. At any point when we got the feeling we were heading onto private property, we turned around.

And sometimes we had to turn around for other reasons.

MINING CLAM.

I appreciate the gratuitous antler but it's a trifle small.

[sholio]

It makes up for the small size by looking like it was dipped in blood.

This needs to appear in an Alaskan horror book.

Clam! :D

[philomytha]

That's amazing!

That sign feels like the start of a short story. :)

The rarely heard of Geoduck's of central Alaska maybe? You have to dig pretty deep to get those.

Mining clams, would be fun to see them at work!! :D

I can understand not wanting to risk that road! Looks like it could be a trap to me - beware enormous man eating worms, perhaps?!

Not just antler, but BLOODY ANTLER OF WARNING.

Clam!

This feels like the start of a scary movie!
