It's unfortunate they aren't honest and professional about their videos. Pretending to be trespassing when they have permits to film at each and every location. :(
@@Alandric1911 Well they don't because they get caught by security in some of their videos and escorted out in one. Besides, if you are exploring the sites professionally, you really should be getting permission to do so.
except for the part where they break into buildings that dont belong to them and ruin everyone elses chances of doing the same thing by posting it on youtube and getting the places locked down.... thats not very "proper" at all.
The production quality and camera shots on these videos is something I only see on TV channels. These guys deserve much better than RUclips who sadly demontizes their terrific content!
What's the reason youtube are demonetising their content? I really do hate youtube in many many ways. It is about time a real contender came on the scene to give them serious competition and a run for their money (no pun intended).
Wow, sure brings back the memories. In the early 60s, I was a USAF radar tech (Heavy Ground Radar). Did my job in and around towers just like these. The high light (or maybe LOW light) of my service was a year tour at Cape Newingham, AK. Six guys up on the mountain with the Radar Set connected by a tram car to 100+ troops down in the valley. Incoming aircraft when the weather allowed - i.e. RARELY. Way, way isolated from the real world!! Thank goodness we were never needed to sound the WWIII alert...................
Bright Sun Films indeed you guys should do a collab, you make amazing documentary type video's and the explore the abandoned building. Would be awesome seeing you guys together
@@MaxCydiaHelp Look up East Mountain in Northern Vermont. This is actually a really popular place to hike. I've gone twice this summer, and it's absolutely stunning!
@@Taylor-mt9pc if you have a vehicle that can go for some off-road driving, yes! Right after the administration section, there if a massive oil tank and pile of rocks blocking the road (put in a few years ago). To get by, you just need to drive around it. Otherwise, it's an hour and half hike up, hour back.
After watching this at least 4 or 5 times, I have to say, this is my favorite video of yours so far. It's got a road trip, off- roading action and an insane spot. Makes me want to grab a friend and my jeep and go up north. Thanks for all your vids. Inspiring and addictive.
I find it insane that you guys put this much effort into your videos with your edits and such, and you only have 482k... hope you guys continue to grow your channel been watching for a long ass time! Love you guys
I’ve been watching your stuff for awhile now. So much quality content! You leave things the way you found them, give history on the subjects and the visuals are spectacular.
Love this place, the cameras don't do it justice when you go in person and can see everything for 50+ miles in each direction. I'll never forget waking up on the third floor of the main tower with my friends and realizing we were completely engulfed in clouds. At night you can see a wind farm off in the distance and physically watch the electrical current go across it's entire grid via their red lights. This is seriously one of the most underrated spots in the northeast you can go to and I highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates a beautiful view. Great vid as always guys.
You've put a lot of time and effort into this video and it shows. From your shots (I loved how you shot the 4Runner navigating around that roadblock) to the use of historical photos and footage, to the VO, this is a polished production. Probably one of your best so far. I know that you can't do this level of production on every video, but I hope you can pull of something like this maybe once a quarter? There are some places that are just cool to watch people explore, and then there are places that really demand an explanation of their history and context -- those are the places that interest me, and I appreciate your taking the time to make videos like this.
Once we finish with school we're going to put all our focus on the channel and hopefully every video will be at this production level. That's still another year out though so until then 1 vid like this a quarter seems like a reasonable goal.
Once again, another ''Proper'' video to bless you tube. I'm not joking, there's not a lot of channels out there that get me excited when they post a video. The way that your videos are made just catches my attention. I appreciate the edits that go into this. Editing is not so fun sometimes. Thanks for another video!
For anyone going up there, warnings first: the road is blocked from the lower base to the upper base because of injuries and a death from falling. Second, last time I was there, huge pile of bear crap behind the motor pool, so keep mindful of bears. Lastly, nothing should happen, but some people do take guns up there for shooting, so also be mindful of that. That said, it's a pretty cool place to visit, and the views from the top are amazing. There's also a great campsite at the base of the towers, protected from the wind. Just be careful, those buildings have had a zero maintenance and are crumbling. This also means that there's asbestos, so don't go poking around in rubble. If you need an ambulance, it's over an hour away, so you're on your own. Finally, for anyone into UFO stuff, this place figures into the Betty and Barney Hill abduction in 1961.
Do you know if people can still visit this base? Last summer I drove to that gate in the road, but it said private property, so I didn't want to trespass.
@@caitlyn9451The gate is not locked. As there are several camps and a gravel pit up there that was being used when I went. I actually talked to the lady at the house next to the gate and she said it's to help keep people out. She said if I did go up, not to enter the buildings because it would be trespassing. She also told me her husband and a few others go up and weld, and close off the entrances every year. People keep breaking into them. So if you do go don't have hopes to get in, because there's a chance you won't be able to. It's also a heck of a steep hike if you park at the bottom. The day I went people were shooting at the bottom were I left my car. I didn't stay long at the top and hurried back down. I did find bullet casing next to my car that were not there before. I'm just glad whoever it was didn't shoot my car. If you do go, I suggest to go as a group.
This video inspired some friends and I to camp here as well it’s was an amazing trip with some of the best views I’d ever seen. Sunrise was the best part. Thank you guys for a great video and a great trip idea.
Man, if you think you’re gonna burn those many calories go ahead. MREs are packed with them and designed to be eaten throughout the day. Also, enjoy the magical farting magic they produce. Sincerely, retired military sergeant.
porcupineracer2 🤣 i know they dont need eat it all (and in some cases im sure they wont), but mre vids are popular and it could add a slice of entertainment to it. It was just a thought as i saw them struggle to make cup o noodles...
This episode reminded me a little of the moon landings. The awe felt when viewing those beautiful mountains, esp. at sunset is a little of what I think the Apollo astronauts felt when they walked and looked at the moon.
This is my absolute favorite proper people video. I've gone back and watched it multiple times. Peak comfy, great environment, cool experience to watch.
one of the best exploration of abandoned structures! Instead of throwing the site away on Mount Lemmon in southern Arizona and the University of Arizona took it over for their astronomy department. Majority of the structures on top are still in use today and one of the telescopes is even controlled via the Internet in Korea. This exact same period of time that these were made and used. That would be one of the best hunting spots ever on top of one of these towers and would camp out for an extended amount of time. Thank you so much for sharing and please keep them coming
Dang, who makes that flashlight? Edit: found the answer in the comments ThruNite ThruNite TN40S LED Flashlight 4450 Lumens Max 1151 Meters Adopted 4 x CREE XP-L HI LEDs Combo of Thrower & Flood (Cool White)
I’ve got a flashlight like that, a NiteCore Tiny Monster, 4000 lumens and a gigantic throw. They are as awesome to use as you’d think. Long run time too, 2 hours at High brightness, although you rarely need that much power for a long time.
I'm usually not a fan of _Proper People_ videos where they bring someone else with them. But Chris Luckhardt was a great partner in this one. He didn't talk to much, didn't ramble on trying make you think he knows more than he does and stayed off camera for the most part so the video is about the location and not the explorers.
Hello to both you guy's. I've lived here just a few miles from the radar base all my life. In fact this town was first named Hartwellville (after my relatives) then changed to E--- H----. As a kid I would climb up the mountain with my friend's. Of course back then it was beautiful. Way before the biker gang's H---'- A----- and other's destroyed most of it. I have read some of the comment's and most of them are very kind but some seem to be casting doubt's on your story. What you said was very true. Back in the late 1950's and Early 1960's The Development was built. My dad helped to build the town's houses that are at the bottom of the Mountain. Yes the base is all the way to the top much like any military base it was called ''THE RADAR BASE'' And YES it was at it's time our nation 1st line of defence. It look's like you took the outer way to get to the split in the road. But as you said after that their is only one way to go. As far as the distance for me from my back yard I'd just go into the wood's and walk up the mountain. Way back when I was a young kid e- s----- owned it and it was much easier to scout the area. There's much more than just the radar base to see. A big thank's for you video, it was great!
Oh shit, hi Chris! I had a feeling that was you from the thumbnail. Glad to see you’re still active with Urbex! I wish we thought to film the one adventure we went on, I still get creeped out thinking back to the basement of the Shell service centre and seeing your floating head in the middle of the dark storage room. Cheers!
I remember the day the video came out I was troubled so much in life. This is my official ASMR now. Now that I can walk again that beautiful campsite on top of the radar was beautiful and gave me hope. Weird how such a fun video made my life better and filled it with hope
My grandfather was momentarily stationed here, he then went to Turkey and worked with the SR71 project. His last post was at Cheyenne Mountain until he retired in the mid 70’s.
I live in Vermont, but never really looked into abandon places nearby. Really interesting. Been wanting you guys to do a VT episode for a while (if you did any others, I missed it). So glad you guys came to this little state.
I've been here and can definitely say this place is just as awesome as it looks in this video. Truly an amazing place. Hope you guys enjoyed your stay. I hammocked overnight in the tallest tower
That board at around 4:20 was used as an LED control board for the air systems associated with it. Think of it like energy management before digital controls were introduced.
You people put a lot of effort into making this video, and it shows by the first-class production. The drone aerial photography & historical photos give some idea of what the radar base was like back in the day. Although it's six years belated, just want to say thanks for a fine minidocumentary. 😊🎥
Little tip from someone who spends a lot of time in the forest at work: Always carry 100ft of rope or paracord when you're doing stuff like this. Never know when it'll come in handy.
I love going to places like that! Where you feel like you're on top of the world looking down on all those beautiful views. Thanks guys for another fantastic location!!
Jaimie Wenzel www.amazon.com/ThruNite-Flashlight-Lumens-Adopted-Thrower/dp/B01MEHKWA9 This is kind of a late response but they responded with this link to their flashlight they have.
What a great video! Your camera work is, as always, phenomenal, and your enthusiasm is so infectious. I was 100% transfixed start to finish. Thank you!
Lol, idk why people are always weird about that. There’s no internet database where you can look it up and get their info and stuff. You have to go to the police and have a reason to get the information.
@@TheInfiltrators1 that's weird because here in Australia, we just search up the plate number and it comes up with the car, Engine VIN number, if it's registered/stolen and more.
@@TheInfiltrators1 its not their license plate. hence why they showed it. There's a reason they were driving an SUV. It was all planned out. This is why it showed a FL plate and that wasn't in FL. Rental.
Every video before this one I kept thinking, " wow it would be so cool if they put a present day shot of what they're looking at vs back in the day" AND YOU GUYS DID IT!!!! Ugh such great content, probably am going to subscribe to Patreon as well!
nojo1099's Entertainment And Media do some research online, I'm sure you can figure it out. People don't like and shouldn't give up spots especially on RUclips.
Concrete won’t “explode”. It will spall. Also, it would have to be an extreme fire to make concrete like that fail. The concrete supported radar equipment. I can’t imagine how thick that has to be.
I've enjoyed visiting and exploring places like this in the San Francisco Bay Area. There are Military installations all around the Golden Gate from the Spanish up to Nike sites from the Atomic age. There are World War II tunnel forts and a radar place on one of the tops of Mount Tamalpais. Thanks for sharing this with us.

it is a search light
That light is fucking insane
There also higher up to the clouds
Those drone shots keep getting better, great work!
This episode should have been sponsored by Toyota.
well pretty perfect choice for this kind of thing :).
_Toyota - the best car for illegally trespassing dangerous territory..._
Nah, I don't think they would... xD
Legality is mostly subjective anyways ;)
Definitely good publicity for Toyota

I love that you guys incorporate as much historical findings into it as possible. As a history buff its always appreciated. Thanks!!

It'd be the perfect place to build a house, if you wanted to live someplace secluded.
This is actually insane. This place is so beautiful, wish I could camp there ...
Little tip from someone who spends a lot of time in the forest at work: Always carry 100ft of rope or paracord when you're doing stuff like this. Never know when it'll come in handy.
I am blown away by the talent you two have. Your videos are AMAZING!! The views are breathtaking!
Funny how in this day and age remote is defined by your cell signal. Paper maps still serve a purpose.

I wonder if you clowns realize how dumb that makes you sound... 🤔
@@Ganiscol you know anyone using the phrase "ok boomer" has the IQ of a water newt.
I love going to places like that! Where you feel like you're on top of the world looking down on all those beautiful views. Thanks guys for another fantastic location!!
Badass flashlight

Post10 was here a few months back. The decay since you visit it alarming
I would go nuts if it was 18 degrees! Hasn't been over 5 for months. ❄️🇨🇦
lol ikr, 18 degrees is fairly warm
18 °C is shorts and tshirt weather....in Kanata
literally me when he said that i was like damn i wish it was 18 ahaha
CAN Control if it gets below 75° F it's cold in Tennessee
Robin Sharkey I’m in the uk. It’s been around 0 to 8 c a lot lately so 18c would actually be warm for us as well.
What a great video! Your camera work is, as always, phenomenal, and your enthusiasm is so infectious. I was 100% transfixed start to finish. Thank you!
Tree scratches are called
Backwoods Pinstriping.
OMG I LOVE THESE VIDEOS...REMINDS ME OF A VIDEO GAME, EXPLORING STRANGE MILITARY LOCATIONS....
"for the canadians watching, thats about 18°C" did you mean to say "for the rest for of the world, its 18°C" ?
sorry, youre all third worlders to us.
@@GodsChosen69 im not gonna complain america is like one big reality tv show to us, and atleast out measuring systems make sense
At first I thought he said, "for the comedians who are watching..."
Hey, that's not true!
It's not for Myanmar or Liberia either.
Celcius
im glad you guys brought an actual man for this adventure, made the video a lot better
Idk if the intro is new or not, but it’s really good
Just for our Forbidden Explorers series. Normal vids still have the normal intro.
The Proper People oh ok that’s cool
This was easily one of the most beautifully shot videos you guys have done. Guess it doesn't hurt you had beautiful scenery to work with. :p
I would’ve blurred out my license plate lol
Lol, idk why people are always weird about that. There’s no internet database where you can look it up and get their info and stuff. You have to go to the police and have a reason to get the information.
I like to show my SSN on video tho.
@@TheInfiltrators1 that's weird because here in Australia, we just search up the plate number and it comes up with the car, Engine VIN number, if it's registered/stolen and more.
@@TheInfiltrators1 its not their license plate. hence why they showed it. There's a reason they were driving an SUV. It was all planned out. This is why it showed a FL plate and that wasn't in FL. Rental.
@@TheInfiltrators1 You can have so much info in my country with just only a plat number.
Oh man that’s what I call life, wish I could go camping with you guys in a place like that
only woods as far as eye sees not a single civilization signs... completely alone there:)
The view and the drone shots are just a phenomenon!
The thumbnail had as pretty good apocalyptic vibe going on. 😍👌
Every video before this one I kept thinking, " wow it would be so cool if they put a present day shot of what they're looking at vs back in the day" AND YOU GUYS DID IT!!!! Ugh such great content, probably am going to subscribe to Patreon as well!
@8:26 at this point, I'm just thinking how they're gonna get back with the car 😆
That was really cool that the tower had seats and a place for campfire.
It's one of my dreams to do something like this!
Lord, so many proper videos on this channel. A treat really, everything so well done!
OMG ive been there! im a photographer and went there and got amazing shots if the stars
Hey! Where can i see them?
Love your historical knowledge of sites you explore which makes your vids quite worthwhile.
That’s in Vermont. When did you go? I’m planning on going once the snow melts.
Dope as hell. The view ia awe! Love it.
nojo1099's Entertainment And Media do some research online, I'm sure you can figure it out. People don't like and shouldn't give up spots especially on RUclips.
Last summer
Just google it, took me 5 seconds to find it.
I've some folk in Vermont. I've never been to the usa
I long for more abandoned (cold war) military installations explored by The Proper People - please make me happy! 😍
You guys are awesome ❤️👍
OMGURBUTIFUL!
We dont have forests like that nowhere near where I live, so that type of forest amazes me, its so beautiful!
14:30 Top tip, don't build a camp fire over concrete unless you want it to explode.
Martin King spall...explode is a touch dramatic.
Concrete won’t “explode”. It will spall. Also, it would have to be an extreme fire to make concrete like that fail. The concrete supported radar equipment. I can’t imagine how thick that has to be.
I've enjoyed visiting and exploring places like this in the San Francisco Bay Area. There are Military installations all around the Golden Gate from the Spanish up to Nike sites from the Atomic age. There are World War II tunnel forts and a radar place on one of the tops of Mount Tamalpais. Thanks for sharing this with us.
19:26 -- omg... these guys have never camped before!
I just got to this part as I read your comment LOL
Thank you for taking us with you.! So cool.
