strange bunker on outskirts of Area 51




Topic started on 29-2-2008 @ 01:24 PM by darthdescendent


it may have already been seen or discussed but i was flying around google earth looking at area 51 at work today and when i went just northeast of the main part of the base I noticed something in the mountain so i zoomed in to these coordinates

37°27'0.62"N 115°44'43.38"W

only to find what looks to be a bunker in the mountain... but why so far from the main part of the base... i mean, walking on foot from racheal, NV you could hike through the mountain to that point from the north... i believe there are no roads up there that any 'camo guy jeeps' could track you but there is a dirt road leading from the main part of the base to the spot and there are what appears to be turn around roads right at the entrance to the bunker in the mountain. any thoughts or theory's... i mean if its intended to be so far away... could be waste storage possibly? but if its not that then what would they store so far from 'home'

I'm not sure what about that image makes you think its a bunker?

sure there is a little building the size of a garage there, but i don't see any blast doors, or air handling anywhere near it - it could just be a weather station, or a geological survey...

and i've just found this, which suggests what you are seeing is comms gear...

If you pan a little further east, to the top of the peaks, you will see Bald Mountain Radar Station 1 and 2. The "bunker" might be associated that - some type of fuel cell for power perhaps?

i see the comm station at the top of the mountain i just find it odd that there is so much road for turn around and such for something as small as a geo survey station or comm's gear... plus there are no lines going up the mountain unless underground of course but it just seems to me that if bald mountain comm station isn't part of area 51 then what i was looking at is due to the fact that the road goes right to the base itself... just seems a bit more then what you suggested but i could be wrong im not about to argue anyone on this... just wanted to post what i found.

thanks for the replies

i agree there does seem to be a lot of road, but what i don't see is anything that actually looks like a tell tale bunker...

i guess thats the closest access for anyone needing to get to the towers on the top as well, which might explain it.

According to the ufomind.com website, Bald Mountain is serviced via helicopter. I haven't seen this done. No one talks about how the fuel for the facility is delivered. That building may be the end of the line for the ground crew.

The road may be wide to make things more manageable for winter travel. Often in Nevada they use a tracked vehicle to make it to the top of these high altitude repeater sites. On the ufomind.com website, there is mention of a tracked vehicle, which I assumed was to reach the top of Halligan Mesa.

If you have ever tried to climb Tikaboo too soon in the year, you can see how these mountain tops have their own microclimate. Not simply colder, but also a higher moisture content

That building might be something to do with testing RCS or ELINT gear perhaps? They'd need a nice little isolated spot to keep away from all the electronic crap in the air at Groom I presume.

The building is in the shadow of air traffic control radar (Bald Mountain), so that would rule out any weak signal systems.

I'm somewhat convinced the straight road leading up the hill toward the "shack" is a power line road. You see these a lot in the desert. No matter how insane the route, they can route the wire. So maybe the shack is a substation.

marks what may be power poles. The resolution is not very good on google earth in that area.
