It is hard enough dealing with the melancholy of not being able to go back to your youth. Harder still when your youth closed down and looks like a ghost town now.glendale1https://www.blogger.com/profile/12143859152099907058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398633296962611892.post-11919128335787587502016-02-19T18:16:47.444-08:002016-02-19T18:16:47.444-08:00I'm not entirely sure, but I have a few theori...I'm not entirely sure, but I have a few theories. I think it is still owned by Kaiser Ventures, and they are attempting to redevelop the land. They probably don't want vandals and scrappers going in and making a mess of things. Also there have been talks about reopening Eagle Mountain Community Correctional Facility, so they are probably keeping it guarded in case those plans go through. It also might be to protect Kaiser from lawsuits and liabilities if people trespass and are injured, especially in the mine.

I've explored many places that were supposedly well-guarded, yet didn't run into any trouble.

I don't think it's that we'll protected, but it's definitely not safe. lol And I heard recently (within the past few years) that they still use the school, although it only had a few students.
