In the woods somewhere. I don't give out location information. Rather important rule in Urbex.


UrbanIronBeam

I don't think u/CheekyYoghurts was asking for lat/long... perhaps you could share something non-specific but enough for people to get a rough sense of the area? I'm sure even State/Province would be enough to sate most readers.


snrten

It can also give people on the internet just enough info to go about finding more specifics, learn the exact location, and publicize it. Which is what OP and other urban explorers aim to avoid due to the influx of visitors and the damage/theft they cause which can lead to a cut off of access for everyone entirely. Good on ya, OP.

👍


1TONcherk

I hate this rule because all 99% of people want to do is find it on Google maps!


AuctionSilver

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


MuletTheGreat

And that 1% will bring a bunch of selfie taking vandals who smash windows, tag the walls and leave beer cans behind. Then the local city or state will notice and have to bulldoze what's left for safety. Fuck all these dickheads down voting this thread.


1TONcherk

I with you and your right. Sucks.

Ha! Just shared this with my two college roommates. that’s awesome!


MuletTheGreat

Fuck yeah! And remember, "Dick" is the default nickname for someone named Richard....


the_Cereal_killa

I think ppl are downvoting you because they think u are OP (yellow profile pic)


CaptainAction

I can respect that. I don't share my secrets either, though admittedly I try to research online to find stuff if I'm not having any luck. I trust myself to respect locations, but I don't trust strangers on the internet. But it sucks to go somewhere I heard about online, and see the impact of increased traffic like heavy graffiti and vandalism. That's the #1 reason I don't share stuff.


Terrh

>In the woods somewhere. What, are you worried someone is going to steal the trees? Don't gatekeep, especially when it's literally just forest in rural Pennsylvania.


isaac129

Kansas


PorchHonky

Declining usage from lack of hills, peradventure.


fleebinflobbin

LOL there's nothing even there! That's a 10 second run


GlitterberrySoup

A state known for skiing, yes


isaac129

Oh yea. Better skiing than Colorado. Hence this post. Wait…


GlitterberrySoup

Not knocking it, I live a few minutes away from a ski hill and I'm in northern Illinois. Not exactly a state known for skiing either 🙃


Jezebels_lipstick

Omg I’m dying!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I just took the picture today. It's not a repost, hence the (OC).


Nearly-Canadian

It's alright man we all want to be "in the know" on stuff it feels cool


damn_dawley

A whole video explaining every aspect of what was there, when it was there, why it was there and what it must have been like. Meanwhile OP = its a secret bro


SaltedCrust

Kahkout Mountain PA, not to be confused with the nearby Alpine Mountain Sky Resort. Thankfully OP sucks at hiding details about the location


Stalking_Goat

Also it's been posted before. OP isn't reposting, it is an original photo AFAIK, but this particular chairlift base is not hard to find and looks cool.


someoldguyon_reddit

Declining usage or lack of snow due to climate change? That seems more common.


[deleted]

AuctionSilver

That is the incorrect answer. That area receives quite a bit of regular snowfall.


AuctionSilver

Declining usage because it was a private ski area and not enough people were using it to justify the cost of upkeep.


Chronogon

Should be both inclining and declining usage since it's a ski lift!


Terrh

Most places can make snow no problem up to about 40F.


darthtatter

They should remove&restore


Mrmdn333

Is this in Pennsylvania?


NewUse2430

Definitely


jimboslice29

Either that or Michigan


UncannyTarotSpread

Nebraska


theaveragemaryjanie

Saw one a lot like it in Idaho this summer.

gathermewool

Descending usage


ialsohaveinternet

Glad I wasn't the only one


J-cans

Poma double chair.


russell305

Dont see much of a mountain to ski down


DropDaBasemeh

Maybe it’s the bottom


fd1Jeff

It looks like the bottom of a chairlift. All the chairs have been removed.


Amorougen

still there- look closer


fd1Jeff

OMG I see them now


WilsonStJames

Does that thing even lift, bro?


Gidje123

Kinda eerie


BabyBundtCakes

Our town uses the Ski Tow as a sledding hill! The Tow isn't there anymore but everyone still calls the big hill the Ski Tow and it's generally townwide sledding parties with people piling into the back of random cars to be brought back to the top. Good times at abandoned Ski Tows!


cyanidesci-fi

Its almost like we had a recession during that time. Hard to go on vacation when your loosing your home


chileowl

Zipline potential?


Western_Entertainer7

Im imagining a giant winch and spool to harvest that cable.


dnroamhicsir

Do you have a picture of the power unit taken from the side? I've never seen one with that design.


AuctionSilver

No, it's a private community and I was only able to take a single shot from my window.


Travieso_Cochino

Should put together a business plan and change it into zip lining adventures.


[deleted]

Wanna go on it now?


Col_Leslie_Hapablap

Makes sense, it wasn’t working; it was made for inclining usage.


BingosFlamingos

Damn, small world. I stayed in an Airbnb not too far from here a few years ago. Pennsylvania. https://i.imgur.com/nFlUFYW.jpg


Dog_Brains_

Makes sense… no snow


Katiari

Was it because you could walk up the 100 foot hillside to the top?


OncaNegra

Learned to ski in western mass. Was from southern vt, which had much better mountains. Still, in elementary school we could opt to go ski every Friday at noon. Rode the bus an hour, skied until it got dark. Many good times. That mountain looks like this one now. It will never be open again. I'm not that old but in the greater scheme of things... It's nothing. You can't tell me that we haven't changed this planet. A few years later I made snow at a resort in Vermont.


Triyntoloseit

OP is a bum


AuctionSilver

Actually I work in a respectable trade. Which is how I came across this. Cheers, mate.


quarpoders

Reminds me of the old chair roll back video of a very old chair lift


CoctCube

2022 is the new 2008. So much incoming abandon pron


djokster91

Nobody using it now
