As we drove further up the hill we came upon Construction 129, an unfinished military something or other. It was way strange and way cool. Read more here: Construction 129 
We also got a chance to listen to the tunnel singer perform ( Her site is here: http://www.tunnelsinger.com ) It was unexpected, surreal, strangely eerie, and beautiful.
Here is the open pit where the cannon was supposed to be placed.
Possibly one of my favorite graffiti messages I've ever seen. Even if later I realized it's a Lil Wayne quote. Maybe I should start listening to more rap if this is what they're saying...
In the tunnels there were these strange pitch black rooms. I mean, incredibly horribly pitch black. The darkness seemed impenetrable. I dared Adam to go in, even tried to push and drag him. We cautiously approached the doorways. It was as if the darkness pulsed and repelled us. It was seriously one of the scariest things I've encountered. And then Adam screamed and grabbed me scaring the SHIT out of me. I've never been that scared, I literally pushed him and BOLTED out of there! I haven't run that fast with that much determination in as long as I can remember. When I realized he was just messing with me, due to my embarrassment at my very sincere and genuine fear I fell into hysterical laughter and we attempted to venture back to the rooms. We never went past one step into the doorway, it was just far too terrifying.
We used Adam's camera flash to look inside and illuminate the pure black. Surprisingly enough there were really intricate and detailed graffiti on every wall. It was amazing.
And here is the view from the other end of the tunnel. You could also see a lighthouse, a windy road, and the ocean to infinity.

Adam is SO mean, but I still laughed at your expense a little.
