PLEASE COPY AND PASTE THAT ENTIRE LINK, THE $793 IS PART OF THE LINK BUT IS NOT ATTACHED FOR SOME REASON.
thats SOME of the story behind it. i have more pics on my digi cam, including a pic of the vw bug that went off the side of the cliff, and is still there to this day. the story that i have ALWAYS heard is before they moved the bodies out of the tomb back in the 70's, it is said that s.w. miles' coffin had been torn apart and pieces were missing including his scull, which to this day has ot been located. it is said that the man that was driving the vw bug was the man that took the skull, and as he tried to stop on the path, his brakes failed, the 2 passengers in the car were able to get out, but the driver of the car was stuck, and met his untimely demise at the bottom of eagle cliff. there is still a group that keeps the cemetery clean and the mosoleum half-way clean, but the partying is still a semi-issue. for a week or so they have had the mosoleum closed off tho, due to an infestation of wasps... they are CRAWLING all over the walls inside and out.
for pics, and directions, please let me know.
