 Overview
 Description
A few miles of simple steam tunnels, connecting various buildings on the Radford University campus. These tunnels are the same familiar labyrinth of burning pipes, stuffy air and radioactive-red cockroaches found on many other college and university campuses. They provide convenient access into just about any building on campus.

The tunnels do not seem to be visited very frequently, although tags from previous explorers can be seen dating back to the 1960s.

Most of the tunnels are lighted. However, several of the passages are flooded and quite muddy.

Beware steam pipe leaks.
