 Overview
 Description
It’s a twin set of 5 and a half foot RCPS that turn 45 degrees and then 90 degrees, as seen on map. One grate to the surface and one manhole per pipe. One of the RCPs has the 2-foot outfall of the parking-lots' drains. Other than that, rather mundane...

In the year 2001, the Silver Creek development crashed their drains into one of the tunnels, adding water and trash to the system. When I moved away from Colorado Springs, it along with the buildings were still being built, and there was a guard. I spotted him from across the creek a couple of times on re-entry missions (both were aborted due to guard presence) thus I never entered again since Thanksgiving Day in year 2000.

My advice for this location: Just enter when its dry and late at night...
