Frying Pan Tunnel
A short, historic rail tunnel set in rugged forest — strong leading lines, textured stone/brick mouth, and dark interior contrast make it great for moody, graphic shots. Best at dawn or dusk for soft side light on the portal and less traffic; overcast or mist enhances atmosphere. Small pullouts along the road offer parking but expect narrow shoulders; bring a headlamp and tripod. Respect any closed signs and private land; watch for wet/icy surfaces in cold months.
