Tillamook Rock Lighthouse
Clip: Season 28 Episode 2808 | 9m 29sVideo has Closed Captions
A look at the isolated, storm-battered lighthouse on Tillamook Rock.
Tillamook Rock is home to the notorious "Terrible Tillie" lighthouse. Built in 1879, the lighthouse warned ships away from Tillamook Head for some 80 years before the storm-prone outpost proved too difficult to maintain. Today, it is a privately owned "columbarium" as well as a federally managed wildlife refuge.
