I used to go there 30 years ago and get high, drink a few beers and just be stupid with my friends, but back then there was no graffiti on the walls, but it still looked just as creepy. There also used to be a place near by where they used to have missile silos Yes NUKES. There was a big water tower there and huge slabs of cement where they covered the silos up. They moved them to an area not too far away up there where there is some secret military complex.
Funny thing is I can't seem to find any of it on Google Earth Hmmmmmm
Anyway it was really kewl to come across this after so many years and to see it is still a popular out of the way place.

great place to get high

That's where I fell and cut my arm!

Here be trolls

yea i went there with a friend and we went through 3 tunnels and one was collapsed. we walked along the walls and found stairs going down and through the wall where we found little huts or rooms with doorways and small windows, as we kept walking we found a tall building like structure with stairs leading up to it and inside is empty with 5 holes in the floor where there is a downstairs part but no way to get there but through those tiny holes.

through that hole is another room with a hole looking just like this one on the other side eading to another room and so on, there are like 3 big empty rooms and the only way to enter them is through this hole. nothing to see.

These kids went to those tunnels....not all of them made it out.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTIcXhZptE4

i read about this place in weird ny and nj and seeing as how i live in queens i never knew about it untill now....but to the point does anyone know of persons brave enough to enter into the tunnels with a (good)camera i am to much of a chicken shit to find out what it is like by myself

That's pretty cool. Reading some of the grafitti must of been interesting... I'd love to visit tweed, but some stories I've heard about it make my stomache churn. Lol.
I'd have to bring a few of my friends to make me couragouse enough to enter...
But knowing them, they'd probably sneek from behind me when we're in a dark spot and yell "Boo!".
Haha.

I have heard that there are snakes in the tunnels. Has anyone ever seen any snakes in the tunnels?

Captivating.

God, that's beautiful.

iwas looking for good direction to find the the entrance to the caves was looking to head up there to check them out, email me gqhydro@aol.com , sweet site

Ingrid, this Bluefields is in New York, not Nicaragua.

Mr. Motts - not only do you have lots of talent with the lens but you're so genuinely kind to use your talent to bring your fellow, less intrepid urb-exers to such captivating, quickly-disintegrating locales. Thanks.

Camp Bluefields is in the town of Blauvelt. As a kid I knew the tunnels well and playde around the area for years. Enen the old serviceens swimming pool was still visible. I guess after 65 years I need to go back.
