A few of them, they are very cool :tup:

And yes, a little on the eerie side too when you are there by yourself :lol:

The best ones are really hard to get to though :(

Suppose thats what makes them the best ones :lol: Remote = eerie

[Goofy]

I've been to Death Valley....... does that count? :-k

[Teh One Who Knocks]

To get to the really cool ones from here, you would really need to plan a good long day to get there and back out. And lots of hiking at high altitude.

I'd like to visit that place abandoned from the coal seams burning, Centralia

You'd be under constant danger of having the Earth collapse underneath you, or being overcome by toxic fumes. Not really so great a place to visit. If you still crave danger and dark experiences however, bring a hooker to my basement...

Centralia was a mining town. It's literally uninhabitable now because of the underground fires that have been raging for the past 70 years (or so). It's the closest to Hell you can get without being damned.

Coal mining town....in the rugged, high altitude of Pennsylvania...it's gotta be at least what, 200....300 feet above sea level?


:rolleyes:

[SmoothBob]

I know, its all from my Silent Hill fictation. The town facinates me, read up on it years ago. I'm drawn to the strange ha ha!

Need to post this. Legend.

This is what you see at a proper ghost mining town ;)

I took this on my trip over Mosquito Pass...it's one of the few buildings left of the London Mines and is at approximately 12,000' (3,657.6 meters) above sea level.

[SmoothBob]

Dude thats awesome! :tup:

Did you go in the buildings?

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Noooooooo....they are all very dangerous. I'm surprised that thing hasn't fallen off the side of the mountain yet

Ghey. There's no danger of a mountain collapsing beneath your feet. You could literally die in Centralia with every step you take.

[SmoothBob]

Be a bit spooky esp if was quiet. shhh lol

[DemonGeminiX]

:-s

A lived-in house can be spooky when you're alone and it's quiet. Just let your imagination wander.

I've been to Barkerville and panned for gold there....it's a ghost town with buildings from the 1800's, similar to what Lance posted.

I did...only 'cuz I used to for a time support their computers. Remoted into their PCs all the time to get rid of viruses! Did lots of BC Heritage buildings which was a cool job.
