It's because there are a row of rooms only accessible by ladder. The metal catwalks were removed (probably when disassembling the machinery) and we would have totally missed those rooms if it hadn't been for our trusty light saber ;) Lost America!!!! Holy cow! Great pics! [I admit I cheated and saw a few on Facebook ;) ] Really stoked that so many of you managed to check this place out in such a short amount of time!
The question is not when are we gonna stop, It's who's gonna stop us? |

Hey thanks! They'll all end up online at some point, I just like to dribble 'em out.

Great work LostAmerica! I can't even imagine how much time it must take to set up all those shots and get the lighting just right.

Thanks! Those 19 images are 2 evenings (about 4 hours each) of shooting. Plus I wasted my time on a few set ups each night that ended up as failures no one will ever see. I could have done more, but spent a lot of time just exploring and looking around. 10-15 set ups a night is typical, 25, if I'm hot, in a good location. I guess I work pretty fast, considering, but I have 25 years of practice.

Your efforts are appreciated mate. You don't get quality images like that running around taking snapshots. Nice work.
What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy, and joy is, after all the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money, we eat and make money to be able to live. That is what life means and what life is for. - George Mallory. |

Thanks bonnie&clyde for letting me in on this truly unique explore. Unfortunately, we didn't get much in the way of pictures, since we were busy avoiding the asbestos clean-up guy. We had a truly memorable trip nonetheless. Also, thanks for thoroughly documenting this place B&C; your pictures allow us to reflect on our time lurking in the darkness Excellent pictures LostAmerica, The Bacon Hallway is perfect, haha.

In one of the offices the penis on the white board was one of my finest. I am guessing it will start to be torn down in october.

Wow, this place looks amazing. It's sad to hear that they will be tearing it down instead of repurposing it though.

Beautiful work on a place I used to do some work for. Can you hear me clapping? bonnie&clyde: What is that drawing all about? Looks like meteors are hitting the earth? LostAmerica: The Heather Locklear Locker is amazing. Beautiful work as always.
It's always night somewhere |
