The Brutality of Tillamook Rock Lighthouse - Terrible Tilly

Video Description

First lit on January 21, 1881, the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse is one of the most isolated lighthouses in the United States. Built on a desolate rock a mile off the Northern Oregon coast, Terrible Tilly endured the worst that the rugged Pacific could throw at it. Through it all, the light remained for 77 years. Now, long abandoned, the derelict lighthouse continues to spark the imagination.
