| | | I think most of us DFW folk are familiar with the silos here, and I'm sure that some people here have even been "on location" there (i've not made it there, but have stared longingly for years). It seems that someone recently died while there. I hope that it was not a fellow group member (or friend of one). I also hope that we're reminded to watch our footing while out exploring, something i'm guilty of ignoring when caught up in the excitement of looking around. THe full story can be found here: http://www.fox4new...ws/206220061-story (PS - are posting links cool? If not, let me know and i'll remove it. Not sure how the group feels about internet traffic "trackback", or if it's even a legit concern.)

| | | As far as I can tell, she was just a 17 y/o girl hanging out with friends. I didn't see any indication that she was really into exploring for its own sake, but I could be wrong. I also got the feeling that the phone call to the police were probably her "friends." I can't imagine leaving someone there like that, no matter how scared I was. Post by denton_robo I think most of us DFW folk are familiar with the silos here, and I'm sure that some people here have even been "on location" there (i've not made it there, but have stared longingly for years | Surprisingly, I haven't been to these yet either. This is one of those locations I'm not too thrilled about going alone because of the people that like to hang out and shoot dope there. Most of the people I know have run into people squatting or doing drugs there, a couple have had to be a bit firm in their insistence that they be left alone. I don't think I know anyone that's gone there and saw no one. This isn't that big of a deal, but going solo with all my camera gear isn't something that sounds like fun to me at all. I'd be totally stressed out. This location and the incinerator are the two I haven't done yet. Odd as it sounds, these two closest to me are the last ones I usually think about. The last part of this post is just some thoughts on the location, I don't want to make light of this girl's death by getting derailed, so I'll leave it at that.

| | | Posted by 2Xplorations One grain elevator I found had the silos underground.
| This has piqued my interest. If for nothing else from a technical side. How deep? In Texas? So many design issues running through my head.
