Northern Illinois

Hello everyone,

I am new to this site and I have already fallen in love. My buddy, Blacksheep5000 introduced me to this site and for that I am very thankful.

I know the weather is getting colder and colder day by day but if anyone in the area is interested in meeting up in the Rockford/DeKalb/West burbs let me know!

Also, has anyone heard much on the Northern Illinois University steam tunnels? My buddy has told me about them but I really don't want to go alone. If you have any information or pictures to share to me I would greatly appreciate it.

I know this post is kind of regurgitating a lot of random stuff, but has anyone had luck at the old Rush Copley Hospital in Aurora, IL?

Hope to hear from some locals!

Welcome!

I haven't heard anything about Northern, but if you do a little research and scouting, you stand a good chance of success.

welcome and hope you and yours are safe- bad storms hit Ill today.

When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store.

Don't know anything about northern but as far as I know rush Copley is sealed pretty well. I haven't taken a trip down there myself but I don't know anyone who has been able to get in. Welcome to the site.

Welcome. NIU does indeed have some steam tunnels. And there are ways to get into them. But never actually tried it myself as all the stories of it being alarmed have kept me away. But i do know where a few of the entrances are.

There arent really many locals active in this hobby around the Rockford/Dekalb area. But if you ever want to get out and see some shit, get ahold of me. I try to make it out at least every weekend to do something. And welcome to UER!

I'm from the Rockford area, actually from Pec, yeah there doesn't seem to be very many around here interested in this stuff. Maybe we will all have to get together sometime and go explore.

I was in Aurora a lot this summer, and the one time I saw Copley open I was alone and knew I would get shit if I went in solo. So I waited and went back a day later and the poe was gone.

Thwarted.

Just keep checking. Let me know if it changes- I did see one spot inside that was SUPER great.

best of luck!

Welcome.

I'm a little east... Great America area. Not much over here, either.
