First time Posting, Long time exploring

Hello People!!

This week I ventured to the Great Lakes to explore an abandoned harbor!
Along with two friends, the journey took place over the course of 2 days and one night. We arrived under the cover of fog and night, crept inside with all our gear and once we had reached the top of the 8 story structure could look back and see the active industrial workers moving around with lights. There was a lot to see so we set up our hammocks in a dry spot and went lurking around the place. It's a solid harbor however we were very wary of where we stepped in case the old wood caved in.

Night 1 we did a quick sweep of the lower levels and took some pictures, we slept and I awoke at dawn for day 2 to completely survey the area in the light. I walked back and forth once along the entirety of the harbor. It felt very surreal because the fog prohibited vision up to a certain point.

I had a lot of fun and I was happy to have seen such a place before it becomes inaccessible. Peace out!~

P.S. had no luck uploading images directly to UER so I've made an imgur gallery

The best way to post images here is to use an external image hosting service (imgur works fine) and then use the img tag to post them. See this thread for more info:

Anyway, sounds like a great adventure! Welcome to UER!
