    I'll bet anything its still active....

    Notice how none of the silos are visible from the photos.....

    If I get some free time this summer I'll venture back out there during the day and see if I can get some shots. There are Silo locations all over our state. My parents county alone has 7 recorded locations.
    Ask Yan he might be able to tell you.

          I want to check out a Titan silo here in AZ. There's one that's been converted into a museum but I want one of the abandoned ones. It's hard to find info online because they keep getting sealed up and the people who know where open ones are aren't talking.

              There are three silos east of Boise. You're right info on the Titan silos is scarce but it's out there. I'll post some links for you when I'm at a computer. We should be able to find you some coordinates and current photos of the location from space.

              The closest silo to me is privately owned. The second is nuclear waste storage.
              The third is... Status unknown/covered and apparently explorable if you have a respirator.

                Oakland is pretty damn desserted, esp in the industrial end of town, ALOT of spaces to see and get into there just keep the eyes in te back of your head peeled too

                  Sochi after the olympics

                  It was the showpiece of Vladimir Putin's £31 billion Winter Olympics. But now the streets are deserted, the buildings empty and the only signs of life are a few stray dogs.

                        I am seriously intrested in the location of that track Lof8. Florida has been needing a small track where we can host events that does not cost an arm and a leg. Pm'd.

                          That original DuPont Registry ad had a New York phone number. I called it and spoke with an older women. It sounds like its privately owned by her husband and they have been dealing with legal red tape for several years. She did say "they hope to eventually have it up and running".

                              Sorry, it's taken a few days to get to a computer. This is the site you should start at. since I don't know what you're close to, or how much exploring you really want to do, I don't know which site to look into more closely for you.
