A Sunday Morning Hike

I had the day off this past Sunday and figured I'd spend it on casual explore with a buddy of mine. I had heard of an old observatory a while back, and I've wanted to check out for quite some time now.

We were lucky enough to come across a trail that hadn't been used in a while

Despite the cold, the hike was surprisingly enjoyable.

Also came across this huge radio dish that seemed to still be in use.

A shot from a little ways up the ladder (it was coated in ice and incredibly slippery) featuring my partner in crime at ground level.

Instruments I could see through a window at one of the buildings.

Unfortunately it was locked up pretty well, I could not.
