The Jetty that is NOT the Spiral Jetty

We passed a family on mountain bikes on the drive out, but other than that we didn't see a soul for hours and it was utterly silent except for the sounds of slight breezes or water lapping occasionally. Looking at the lake and the mist shrouding the base of the mountains in the distance made me feel like this should be the scenery in a fantasy novel. We're at the end of the jetty from the first picture. The lake behind us didn't show up, so it looks like we're at the end of the world.
This jetty is close by the spiral jetty and was used in oil explorations from the 1920's - 1980's.
