Jealous of Detroit. Nice pics!

we don't have a lot of old building you would want to explore in down town PHX (not without a gun) and if there are the cops are ON IT or bums and junies are squating. PHX also tears shit down quick rather then let it sit vacant.

we used to go on big 4 wheeling trips in groups and go explore old abandoned mines and ghost towns. almost the same, less junkie danger, and mostly stuff from the 30's and older.

although cool, it seems a good way to stumble on some junkies who don't want to share their area. Even though I carry, I'd find it difficult to explain why I was in a confrontation with a heroin addict in a abandoned steel plant anyways.

Anywho, Salem has a old paper pulp plant that is being torn down. The neat thing though is that if you follow mill creek downtown, eventually it goes under the factory on it's way to the river and it's a cathedral down there. Also a bunch of blacktar heroin dudes at night. Daytime activity only.

Finally a thread to dump my shiz in lol.

Some of these shots were way back when I was developing my style so excuse the crazy HDR bs.

i know theres abandoned industrial buildings off the 905. member going there mid day learning how to drift in my old 240. haha awesome place to drive. Lots of empty lots with nothing to run into. I never did go into the buildings tho...

i LOVE urbex. unfortunately anything that was interesting locally is either burned by the cops or the local party kids use them to get loaded. i need to branch out more and drive out further i think. we have some abandoned dairy's nearby too, but they've been fenced off recently due to squatters and gang related nonsense. anyone in SoCal want to get an outing together? I figure 4-5 people max is enough to stay low key, but still get some cool shit going. more eyes is always better

people with ideas for locations would be good too. i've always wanted to check out rock-a-hula, but i cant justify driving all the way out there by myself for that.

How so?

The scrap metal is bolted down. And would take major machines to get them out. You can't just drive stuff up to the doors in these places.

The crackheads in your town need more motivation. Ours will use portable cutting torches, sawzalls etc. Hell, they break into power substations and steal large amounts of copper. Sometimes they fail to make it out alive though.

I think it would be awesome to do this in my town, but I would definitely be risking my life. By the way, how have those buildings not been looted for scrap metal?
