Even though we had to climb down a steep snow slope and then through a snow tunnel to get in, once in things were in remarkable condition. There is literally food still present, mattresses, magazines and books from the 80\u2019s etc. All because they abandoned it in 6 hrs. The top is a huge radar station. Even weirder it isn\u2019t being used though structurally intact, but the runway is and we saw a big American aircraft take off.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1869\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1869\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tgwhfonline.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image2-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1869 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/tgwhfonline.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image2-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uhnfdn.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image2-6.jpg 400w, https:\/\/uhnfdn.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image2-6-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1869\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The massive Dye II station behind camp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1868\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1868\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tgwhfonline.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image1-13.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1868\" src=\"https:\/\/tgwhfonline.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image1-13.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uhnfdn.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image1-13.jpg 400w, https:\/\/uhnfdn.ca\/tyl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/image1-13-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1868\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inside the radar dome.
