We found this tunnel today in the Belle Isle Powerplant. I was walking along inside and my foot scuffed across something under all the dirt and broken glass. I started moving crap and found a rectangular access panel, made of steel treadplate. I worked at it for a little bit and got it open to find this strange little tunnel. I didn't go far, it was really nasty and it looked like the end was blocked. It went a short way in the other direction too, towards the big metal things in the wall. I'm returning monday, I might check it out further.

Has anyone seen this before?

Sweet, I had no idea. How tall is this tunnel? And approximately how long?

It is about two feet tall. No clue how long. I can see thirty feet. There is a mountain of bottles and cans around that point that fell in from another hole. It'll be a pain to explore. I'm taking the sungun with me monday when we go for swimming, see if I can see farther. It doesn't look appealing, even to a veteran drainer. If it connects up to something else, though....

Yeah. It does look bigger in the picture though.

If you know about the room you have to climb through the circular metal thing to get in, you know you can't get into the others that way. We think we might have a way in. If we do, pictures will soon be in evidence.
