No ive not seen these pics on here before



i assume its linked to this place or the one higher up.

We got speaking to a jogger when we were ascending the pike and he was telling us of an adit that is opening up near by, he said he finds them all the time, but within a year they are filled in by the authorities.


Note to mods- If my picture needs removing please do so.

It all looks the same to me down there But it does look like its the same.

I have found a couple that are opening but nothing thats ripe yet. I'll be happy to share if I do find anything, Im really not looking to do much exploring other than the tunnel I posted up before.

They usually are and need to be approached as such.
