![You never know what history you’ll find camping in Big Sur. This is an old limekiln...used from 1887 to 1890 to extract lime from limestone at very high heat. They then shipped it off to Monterey and San Francisco to build the city. Lime was the key ingredient used in cement. After 3 years however, they’d exhausted all their resources and abandoned them.
