This week on Dead Explorer.
We continue our search for the strange marker
and for the abandoned lookout tower in South
Austin.
What will I find?
The ghosts of our past.
Forgotten places, people, and history.
Armed with a camera, I am the Dead Explorer.
So this is it.
This is the strange sign like structure that
we saw during our research and it’s really
hard to describe because it’s a combination
of wooden limbs that are tied together with
barb wire.
Some rod.
Some tin sheets and what looks like an old
old bicycle wheel.
I’ll zoom up on that in a second.
God only knows what it is, but it’s definitely
a sign of the settlement that used to live
here and now I have to think if there was
an abandoned lookout tower near a church in
south Austin, we’re definitely in the right
place.
I just came out from what I believe is the
site of the abandoned lookout tower.
I found some structure.
I found some signs of barb wire fence.
I’m going to take the camera in there now
and show you what I found.
This might actually be it.
Let’s check it out.
What you have here.
First, you have a post, like the post we saw
earlier where the farm animals were kept.
It has barb wire.
It’s a post that used to be up, it’s falling
down.
There’s wood with barb wire fallen throughout
this area and then you look up here and you
have these rocks that look like they used
to be some part of a wall or short rock fence
and it goes from here, I say about twenty
feet down.
So I don’t know if we actually found our
lookout tower.
We’re running out of park.
We’re running out of light, but this is
a really cool location.
This definitely used to be the wall to something
and we’ll just have to come back some other
time.
In the meantime, this is Alejandro in Austin.
You can follow me on Twitter @tweetalejandro
and make sure you come back to my channel
for new videos in the future.
This is Alejandro.
I’ll talk to you later.
Bye.
