I would take a guess at around 20-30 trays...

I wish I could... :-)

It's actually light shining through the overgrown doorway.

Thanks; yes I've returned to this location a few times and those photos will be making their way onto the site as soon as I can get to them...

Yes this is a shot looking inside the church from the main entrance, towards the altar. The doors in back are of normal height, to give you a sense of the scale.

YSH officially closed in 1991, however The Center for Forensic Psychiatry remained on campus until 2004 or so. These last interior photos in this gallery are of this particular area.

These large coal mines needed their own generating stations to power each facility, so these towers were probably used solely by the power plant, which I imagine was a coal burner.

It's still sitting there, a burned out shell of what it once was... I believe whatever is left inside will be salvaged soon.

This room is located in the large, newer building on the campus; administration was located in the center of the old Kirkbride building.

I would say there was a few feet of dirt in there, given the height of the other bunker area.

I get more edgy and alert going into dark places...

The tunnels varied in height from about 7 to 9 feet; it wasn't claustrophobic but I'm sure it would have been after a day or so of hiding in there, or if it was full of people and supplies.

Hmm... I would estimate the rectangular gate in the foreground being about 5-6 feet tall.

They were open. Most of these places have open doors (if they don't close automatically); I would guess due to personnel checking that every room has been emptied properly and/or explorers checking out all the rooms.

Not in a too-compromising place (yet)
