Found a school bus from 1972 in the middle of a forest near Portland

I was hiking out past Estacada last fall and stumbled on this old yellow school bus half swallowed by moss and ferns. The seats were all torn up but the steering wheel was still there, and someone had written 'don't open the back door' in sharpie on the ceiling. I opened it anyway, just a bunch of old soda cans and a rat nest. Has anyone else found random vehicles way out in the woods?

You seriously thought a rat nest was gonna get you?

Hold on, @ivan211, you're telling me 30 rats in a nest wouldn't make you nervous? I saw a picture of one once with all those little eyes and it gave me the creeps. They can chew through walls and wires, that's a real fire hazard. I don't care if they're small, a swarm of anything is scary. You're braver than me for sure.
