This is an Atlas F Missile Silo complex. Built in 1960's and operational for 3 years during the "Cold War." Site was decommisioned in 1965 and given to the local government. Where it changed hands 3 times before I bought it off eBay. For the last 8 summers I have begun the clean up of this massive fixer upper. Hope to have a livable historical home in the future.
Bill from the Deep Water Recovery / Cold Water Unit of the Alburg, VT Fire Department took a plunge in the silo. He jumped in at Level 5 and dove down 71 feet to the end of the safety line that was dropped. Visibilty was limited. We speculate that Bill reached a debris field of junk that was on the top of Level 8. Cheers to Bill and Kenny from Kenny's Boat Repair,Alburg. Thanks to Tim Parsons for his dedicated suport.
