Log - 2004

 

April '04

 

Hey ya'll... After six or so years in Blacksburg, and thirty trips into Virginia Tech's steam tunnels, I finally decided that it was time to move on. I've seen just about everything there is to see in Blacksburg.

So I moved to Charlottesville, a town with incredible exploration potential. This'll be the last entry in this log, but you'll be able to find pictures of cool Charlottesville stuff on the 'off-campus' page, located here. And you can still feel free to e-mail me with any question or stories you have about Tech's tunnels (or anything else cool in Blacksburg).

tunnel trip #30 - March '04 Woo Hoo! Thirty trips into the steam tunnels!

I went back to the Shultz - power plant tunnels again, and explored further this time. I've covered all of this section of tunnel now, except for the  section in the 'pit of hell'. I tried to crawl down it, but it was just too damn hot.

 

tunnel trip #29 - March '04 It's Tech's spring break, so I decided that now was the best opportunity yet to explore the steam tunnels in the upper quad. I'm glad I waited until campus was empty, because manhole covers are loud and hard to move. It was fun though, I love exploring steam tunnels for the first time.

 

Radford - March '04 Checked out a couple of places that a friend had found in Radford - an abandoned pumping station and and abandoned warehouse. We couldn't get into the pumping station, but the ware house was pretty cool. Lots of old junk. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures.
