The semi-abandoned town of Brownsville and all it has to offer.
Sleighton Farm School
We were back at it again this weekend and visited The Sleighton Farm School. Shout out to a reader Justin, for telling me about this place! I was, without a doubt, overly excited to learn about a new place to explore and one that holds so much history. My favorite part about exploring is finding … Continue reading Sleighton Farm School
Abandoned York County Prison
It's been entirely too long since my last entry; I'm back!! To my regret, we were on a hiatus from exploring, but we're back at it! I have a few entries to catch up but I want to start with the abandoned York County prison. The York prison was constructed in 1906 and replaced a … Continue reading Abandoned York County Prison
Atlas Cement Company
When you're out of town, why not explore something different in a new place? We recently visited Pittsburgh and while spending time with my child hood best friend, I suggested we do some urban exploring with her. Needless to say, she's a friend you never have to convince to do something adventurous with you. Although … Continue reading Atlas Cement Company
Embreeville Complex
Let me start off by saying that the Embreeville Complex or Embreeville Asylum is vast! It could easily take an entire weekend to truly explore the whole campus as well as the underground tunnels. Embreeville started out as an Almshouse in 1798 and they were to care for the poor, insane and neglected. The facility … Continue reading Embreeville Complex
Random Adventure
When you're dating a person who has a soul for adventuring it's no surprise that you'll often be pulling off to the side of the road to look at something you weren't planning to. Yesterday, on our way to the St. Nicholas Breaker, my King Adventurer spotted railroad tracks and a tunnel going through the … Continue reading Random Adventure
St. Nicholas Coal Breaker
Being a coal region girl, this adventure felt like home. Born and raised in the coal region and my grand father being a coal miner, the terminology and sites weren't completely foreign to me. So, if you're wondering what a coal breaker is, it's a coal processing plant and it breaks coal down into several … Continue reading St. Nicholas Coal Breaker
Linfield Industrial Park
Linfield Industrial Park may just be our favorite adventure to date. With 192 acres to explore and a plethora of buildings, it made for a beautiful adventure. Please be advised that this area is posted as no trespassing and you should be aware that authorities do patrol this area. With that being said, we parked … Continue reading Linfield Industrial Park
Alvira Bunkers
If you're in the mood for a hike and some exploring, I'll suggest the Alvira Bunkers. In 1942, amidst World War II, the US government seized around 8,500 acres in Pennsylvania. Among these 8,500 acres was the farming community of Alvira. The US government seized the land by eminent domain because they felt they needed … Continue reading Alvira Bunkers
Concrete City
This weekends adventure took us to Concrete City in Nanticoke, PA. This was seemingly easy to find compared to last weeks trek to Lausanne Ruins. We parked off the main road and walked a well worn trail for roughly 8-10 minutes until we reached Concrete City. My suggestion would be to visit not in Pennsylvania's … Continue reading Concrete City
