This is a strange abandoned property that I can't determine the purpose of. Their is a small dirt road that enters it and is blocked by a chain with a DANGER sign (see pics). The property is covered in strange rising lumps of soil that do not appear to be natural - there may be something underneath them. It looks as if it was once a field that has been slowly overgrown. There are random dirt grooves all over the property. It is relatively large and the value of the area is moderately high, making it pretty unusual. While there I was walking around and found a completely hidden little shed that was half destroyed with a well near it and evidence of a building perhaps once being there. If anyone has any information about the purpose of this plot of land it would be greatly appreciated!

Directly north of here was the Canukr Studios, a converted barn, where they filmed a lot of movies. Deranged was the most famous. The studio is on the hill right behind the mansions there ...check it out...
If you watch part 9 or 10 of the film "Deranged" on youtube from 1975 they drive right by this spot before Ezra gets out of the van and chases the poor girl in the snow. She gets caught in a bear trap and the rest is too grizzly to mention...Just east is the creek which can be seen when she gets loose and runs off...
