 Overview
 Description
Two separate banks of huge silos, smaller garage/storage building, bits and pieces of conveyor machinery and such. Buildings are partially torn down, but it looks like they're not going to be finished any time soon. Access is easy, once you're there, but getting there requires a 2 or 3 mile hike back the old access road. It's a bit tricky to find, I only put it in the DB under 'Pedro' because that was more or less the closest town. If you want to find your way there, message me, I'll tell you how.

     Media Coverage

     Future Plans
    By the looks of it, it'll stand until the end of time and continue to be used as a (unofficial) paintball course.
