	As of next Wednesday, I'll be relocated to the lovely state of OR. Can I get a NW explorers introduction/roll call? I'm lookin' for some exploring buddies, PM me if you're down. I'm planning on buying some wheels asap, so i'll be able to do some traveling as well. I'm coming from Philly and have a lot of UE experience. Let me know who's down. Take it easy, ducky In the space of a smile I found sleep.

	Welcome to pdx. Good luck, it's pretty quiet here. At least you're old enough to enjoy the beer. "Dallas is a magnificent and wide open city, and I'm deeply envious of any urban explorers who have the good fortune to live there." -Ninj.

	Welcome to OR. Yeah, not much going on around the metro area. And the stuff outside of town is mostly caves and mines. But I'm always up for meeting explorers, let's grab a beer sometime.

Good.

Portland though from what I have heard, had lots of abandonments prior to 1995.

	Portland has a lot of condos, section 8 housing, transients, etc. During 1990s and most of 2000s a lot of high rise condos were built. The city center has very modern, sterile look and whats left of cool buildings were mostly demolished. I think there's an old Meire and Frank building in NW that's from the turn of 20th century, but it just looks cool on the shell. The inside is all hollow. Even the famous B&O warehouse got turned into some lame office spaces. http://www.olympicmill.com/spaces

I've been to the remote stretches of Oregon and have turned up with nothing.

	You must not have 4 WD. There's plenty there and not too very distant from there either. I drink gasoline for breakfeast and beer for dinner!

	There's still some neat stuff around... Not much in Portland though, unless you have a taste for active sites. PSU has pretty extensive tunnels, though I have heard they were recently made more secure.

	There is some stuff here in the Metro area, But if you are willing to drive a bit, you can explore anything from old bunkers, to mines, and abandoned logging mills and more. [last edit 10/11/2009 9:45 PM by OttoL - edited 1 times]

It does seem like Oregon does demolish stuff pretty quickly after it's abandoned.

But not always. The Mccormick and baxter site was open for years, and heavily tagged up. It was abandoned in 1992, and finally demolished in 2009... And yet, there is still a dock, and other noise there....

BTW, what is the word on the abandoned hotel, anyone been there? All I see is fence, and I have never heard any reports of trespass on N disp. on my scanner. What gives?
