| | | Drop the ole Pegman on a few of these Photospheres to check out some ancient abandoned explosives storage bunkers. You might need to drag Mr. Peg over the wooded area to see where they are. Not my pics, sadly. There are a handful of these sites scattered around the Montreal area, as there's been an explosives / gunpowder / ammo plant just upriver from here in Valleyfield ever since World War II. It seems their policy is to get the finished products off-site ASAP. Which is totally understandable. https://www.google.ca/maps/@45.6917407,-73.8633859,479m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en They don't advertise this, but it looks like one of the replacement sites is a little bit east of this one. These funny-looking railway sidings, not far from the plant, also have a history of being used for explosives storage: https://www.google.ca/maps/@45.3601603,-74.124107,1443m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en And here's an aerial view of the (generously-dimensioned) plant itself: https://www.google.ca/maps/@45.2683804,-74.0908233,2833a,35y,12.27h,39.76t/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en Some years back I had mad designs on trying to check this spot out in person, moron that I am. Then I came to my senses, thank fuck.

| | | There's a ton of them near Mather in Sacramento. A lot of them seem to just be scattered about, while others are in neat little rows. Because Mather was a SAC base, there's even a nuke weapon storage area, that hasn't seen use in at least 20 years. I had an interesting encounter there a couple of years ago. The area is mostly empty buildings surrounded by a double 16 foot fence. the old gate no longer functions, but a county owned gate, which you can step over, but could not drive over, is in use. While I was wandering around I heard a loud , HD motorcycle drive up, watched as a greasy looking biker get off his ride, unlocked the gate, drove through, then lock it behind him. I didn't try to hide, since bikers are about as far from LEO as you can get, and I was just standing in front of a building near the gate. The biker drove up to me and asked, "What the fuck was I doing!" I said just looking around. He replied I couldn't be there and to leave...NOW! What do you say to a scary looking biker, but C-ya! Walking up to my car, about a 1/4 mile down the road, I saw a cop waiting for me. There was really nothing else within walking distance but the weapon storage area, so he figured I'd come out eventually. He was cool, and just told me the area was dangerous. When I asked him about the biker, he sort of laughed and said he had no idea what "that" group was up to. Seems the MC club rented the area (didn't know you could do that) and that LEO had stopped by a few times expecting to find meth labs or stolen bike storage, but only ever find guys wrenching on their bikes. Just weird.
