Posted by cambrianguy It was a nice building with some character.

It definitely was so this is very sad news. This particular structure was one of my favorite parts of the base and many of us spent lots of time taking it in and exploring here.

Time for you to ride off into the sunset you magnificent concrete bastard....

aaaah, the memories... 1.
What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy, and joy is, after all the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money, we eat and make money to be able to live. That is what life means and what life is for. - George Mallory. |

Of my many visits to this building, this one depicted below was by far the easiest infil.

A recent late night excursion with a good group of people.

What can I say? It was rather... rewOrding. *ducks the rotten projectiles* And the good company was highly appreciated. An indispensible "fireteam" to have your back. 1.

Thanks T. Actually, aside from that one shot where you guys were actually lounging around, all those shots were taken while you guys were shooting, i.e. after the sun had set. Almost half of them were taken after you guys had left for the tanks, i.e. almost midnight. Look carefully. There are streaked stars in all of them.

Oh wow I didn't even notice those were at dark. Very cool stuff!
When there is tranquility, you are in the right place. When there are no footprints, you are on the right path. When there are no tire tracks, you are on the right road. |

Yes, the "glass warehouse" building is long gone. There's still plenty to see though.
Honesty may be the best policy, but it's important to remember that apparently, by elimination, dishonesty is the second-best policy. -George Carlin (1937 - 2008) |

Nice to see Ording is alive and well. Some amazing pictures in this thread, especially the night shots! Here's a bit of a retrospective from me as I never got round to posting these...
