| | | This was quite a good trip. I'm not sure if it was a lucky day or what, but the place was a ghost town. No patrols, and little activity in the active buildings on site. I'm quite excited for a return, as we covered nowhere close to half of the area. Here are some color & B&W 35mm shots. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. The true gem of the shipyard, the one & only gantry crane. This tough cookie stands at a whopping 450 feet, making it about 145 feet taller than the Statue of Liberty. If your aim is to climb those rusty ladders to the very top, your limbs will be angry. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. The light that still fills the night sky with a red hue to this day. 16. Obviously that Secret Santa character was a troll, but that spot that "Must have not been that great" is actually the very top of the crane, which provides a nice view of not only the shipyard, but the downtown skyline & the Sutro Tower. There is also a small room located at the top which you can climb down into. 17. 18. Managed to capture what looks like an image straight out of a history textbook. 19.

| | | This was my first time urban exploring, and I must say, this is an incredible place. Went here a little while back and loved it. My friend and I went to both the old army barracks and ended up climbing the crane. Security seemed to be pretty lax, with the occasional car going down the main roads. The cars stay on the main roads and go in a circle throughout the site. It generally takes about 15-25 minutes for the same car to cycle through the site. We also noticed that the guards seem to switch shifts at the guard booths at approximately 7:00am. #1 View out the window, floor 10 of the barracks #2 Another window shot #3 Hallway of the barracks #4 View down from the roof #5 View from the roof #6 Crane from below #7 View from the middle of the crane #8 Middle of the crane #9 Middle of the crane again #10 View from the top of the crane #11 The army barracks from the top #12 Looking down from the top For those of you wondering about the risk: We got spotted as we were leaving, and were informed that we were trespassing. Played it off as lost tourists (we had cameras), and were told that if we had been caught further into the site, they would have called the police. Not sure how big the risk is, being unfamiliar with California's trespass laws, but the guards seemed pretty lax and let us off with a warning. (this is my first post so let me know if something's wrong)
