Do an image search for "American Flats, Nevada". Reno is closest major city. It's an old abandoned cyanide mill where they used to leach tailings for every little bit of silver left over from the Comstock. The empty cyanide cans still litter the place. I havent been there in years, but used to go party and play paintball out there occasionally in my younger days. Always had the feeling of being watched .... :-|

I started watching last night. It's a bit dramatic, but not bad.

Googled it. Seems it was set for demo in 2013?

Sad....looks like a kick ass place!

They keep threatening, but it's still there. Cost to demo is like $4 million that they dont have.

Forgotten Planet is a great show, too bad it was only one season. Couple of the sites the feature are a bit of a re-hash like Pripyat and Salton City, and they left out Centralia, PA, which would have been interesting.
