A school I've literally passed by my entire life. I was disappointed going in after being so hype, but it wasn't awful. Probably the worst was how deep in the woods it is.

Wow, those cars would make it well worth it to me! Do you think they were stolen and dumped back there?
|

Actually probably just junker cars. We have a huge problem of people dumping their junker cars wherever just so they don't have them on their property. Big problem also just dumping them in the river and Lake. I'm not sure why they don't just scrap them at the scrap yard.

Nice shots Havox, the school looks fairly bleak but I will bet you could get some awesome shots after a good snow. Looks like somebody keeps after this property, the grass is cut. Junk cars still pay good scrap money

What's actually weird is you can see the gym behind it in the last picture, and the gym is fenced off with the big tall chain link fence with rolled barb wire on top, lots of "KEEP OUT" and "NO TRESPASSING". gate with giant padlock, the works. Absolutely nothing for the school though. There's a big black SUV that comes over to the gym, but the several times I've gone they've never said anything to me.

The thing in the last one looks a lot like the temporary covers they build in some places to store dirt and other construction supplies that they don't want getting wet. Are you sure it's a gym and not one of those? Even if there's no construction going on nearby, they could be storing stuff there; an abandoned rest stop near my house has one full of concrete pipes and a pile of gravel, even though there's nothing nearby that could possibly use any of that.

Mmhm! But there's no telling what it's used for now.

oh is that near the john Muir trailhead on 315?
mmmm. mandias....... |
|
Wow, that's pretty funky, being set back in the woods like that. What level of school was it?
|

When I looked up John Muir trail head, I got a trail in Nevada. Is that the one you're talking about? This is in North GA.
And I'm not sure what level of school it was. It was only open 10 years, but it's a historical site now. It's so rural here every community had a school because it was too much work to bus kids to the one main school in town, so they just built a bunch of small schools. That's probably why this one hot abandoned, when they built the new ones. I've tried to Google stuff about it, but it shares the name of a very popular city in Alabama,which hinders my search results.
