| Re: Strange area in Nevada | Micr0chiP | 9/6/05 4:48 PM | Looks like a weapons testing facility, check the target NW from you placemark, just outside the dry lake bed. Possibly for bombing practice ? _________________________ -=Micr0chiP=- |
| Re: Strange area in Nevada | psylant | 9/6/05 4:56 PM | I don't see the radioactive symbol, this is more like the circles they paint on crash test dummies. Radioactivity has three arms radiating from the centre, not two. It's probably a bombing target of some sort. Cheers. |

| Re: Strange area in Nevada | IanUK | 9/7/05 8:29 AM | Thats Groom Lake at Area 51. Who knows what wierd things go on there! |
| Re: Strange area in Nevada | BackroadJoe | 9/11/05 6:11 PM | That spot is not Groom Lake (Area 51). Rossibee's post gives the correct coordinates for Area 51.

| Re: Strange area in Nevada | RocketFox | 9/12/05 9:02 AM | The Coordinates you posted is, indeed Area 51. It's useful to turn on Keyhole Community to see if it's been found before, and marked. |

| Re: Strange area in Nevada | gnarthrash | 11/28/07 8:47 PM | I was looking at this and decided to follow the road away from the sit to see where it led and it eventually meets up to a main road after going by some groups of structures.

Assuming your serious, would you put a missile silo in the center of a lake bed?.. that fills with water during a flash flood |
