Hikers Find Abandoned WW2 Classified Military Base on a Canadian Mountain. Explore # 101

[@jambarreturns9060]

I did 22 years in the British Army but would have loved to have been posted to Canada. The nearest I got was a life firing Ex at BATUS in Alberta. God Bless our glorious Canadian Comrades.

Greetings from Northern Alberta. I did 37 years Army and Retired in 2010, spent a few hot summers, and cold winters in Suffield. Lot's of old gun emplacements all along the BC Coast.

I had no idear that you came to Albertar

[@nickbakker6963]

Fenced compound, ammo storage, underground passages... perfect placement with an exceptional vantage point from up on the mountain!! what an excellent explore Brent!! Thanks so much!

[@AbandonedUrbexCanada]

Thanks Nick!

Hello from Mönchengladbach Germany. What a very nice explore. An abandoned military object is always an adventure. A 6 inch coastal Battery is not an every day found. Sealed doors has it reasons. Many equipment or anything else could left behind (for example: Camouflage paint contains a lot of lead and other cancer provocations materials).The landscape is amazing. Many Thanks for your Work together Brent and Dame Untamed. Stay safe and God bless you.

[@rodmandealerman3297]

Whether it's an abandoned farmhouse, mansion, or airfield with planes, this has to be the most unexpected, amazing find in your travels. Man, I REALLY wanted you to be able to get inside! Shock and awe. Brent, huge thanks for sharing this with us!

Thanks man!

I respect this explore and loved it.. Imagine them walk through it all, the training, the missing of families just for their country.. My dad was an army man, and I love them.. Thanks Brent for posting this, and also "the Indian time."❤

Part of West Coast defence network during WWII, there are a few on Vancouver Island and I would imagine on some strategic locations on Straights of Georgia islands as well. Another fascinating explore, thanks Brent.

[@messagedeleted1922]

There are installations all along the coast from WWII. There is the ruins of a base near Prince Rupert, there is a Large Bunker with equipment left over from the war near Terrace BC airport. (or was in 1999 when some schoomatesbroke in and opened a crate with a 40s generator inside of it.) There are recently decomissioned radar sites on Haidaa Gwai that has been in operation since the 40s. This was the frontline if Japan invaded.

[@JohnHill-qo3hb]

@@messagedeleted1922 Yup, knew most of that, thanks.

[@michaelb9529]

There was a large fort on the north side under the lions gate bridge. Torn down circa 1980. Used to play in it. 2 storey thick walled structure with old gun mounts. iirc the mounts were small but the place could hold several guns. So from point grey to stanley park back out to point atkinson pretty much had Burrard Inlet covered.

Hey Brent. What a incredible explore very interesting. The views overlooking the water was so beautiful, and your drone work is so spectacular. You are my favorite and never disappoint.

I remember training there in the late 70s with my Reserve Infantry Regiment. The place wasn't sealed then. Brings back memories of my soldierly youth. Thanks for doing this episode. I won't say anymore. I don't want to disclose the location. Cheers!

[@AbandonedUrbexCanada]

Thanks for sharing this! I hope they keep the structures. I heard they may develop the property

[@DameUntamed]

This was so cool. Too bad we couldn't get in the underground parts, but still one of the best abandoned places I've explored. A really well edited/ produced video as usual. Great work & thanks again for letting me tag along :)

[@AbandonedUrbexCanada]

Thanks Nikki! Something we might never see again. So glad we made the hike up. A campfire at the top would have been cool! Your welcome and look forward for more exploring in the future. 🎥😁

Amazing how well everything is still holding up after being abandoned for 65ish years and built 80 some years ago...and exposed to the elements for all that time. Other than the rusted doors and hinges, the place looks like it could be used again if ever needed. All I could think of was that I'd love to camp up there...lol. Great video!

[@AbandonedUrbexCanada]

Great camping spot! They built things a lot better back then. Our builds now only last 50 years

[@agim4684]

you are the most extraordinary urban explorer Brent!!!, not only is it a beautiful place, they are the most wonderful military installations that I have ever seen in my life... I wish they could make a historical theme park with them, they deserve their conservation and to be of foot (with a little rust from humidity and time), but really worth it to preserve Canada's history. I am not Canadian, I am Mexican, but I am passionate about the history of war, especially World War II, and I would like to know more about how your country intervened. A thousand congratulations, you left me in love with your country!!

Thanks so much glad you liked this video. I hope they leave it and maybe have walking trails throughout the property

[@l.l.2463]

This reminds me of Fort Worden in Washington State USA and Fort Stevens in Oregon USA. They are both more open for exploring inside and Fort Worden is especially extensive. My two sons had a great time in both places! But I can understand why they would keep such a remote facility closed to exploration.

[@coloradogma2861]

Wow so cool, but also a bit weird. Thanks for the history and comparative photos!

[@bambambundy6]

We have old WW2 gun emplacements like that here in the states that have machinery down inside that lift the shells and powder up to the guns. When I was a kid you could go in and look at all that. Now it’s closed off with locked gates as well. If your really interested in old military equipment we have 4 or 5 old Battleships some different sizes here in the states you can tour.

We had a base close to my city Grande Prairie AB. Info follows: Canadian Forces Station Beaverlodge is a closed General Surveillance Radar station. It is located 4.9 miles east-northeast of Beaverlodge, Alberta. It was closed in 1988. It was operated as part of the Pinetree Line network controlled by NORAD. It was torn down in the early 90’s. My husband put the ground back to natural habitat. It’s now home to a very rare ground squirrel that only peeks it’s head out for a week every summer. Incase you needed little more pieces of useless information😉😂 It is a beautiful spot with breathtaking views of the Peace Country.

It sure looks like it is built so high that the enemy couldn't get to there by climbing. I would think that the only thing the enemy could do to try and take that place would be by air. Thank you again Brent for showing us another place that is abandoned in Canada. I always enjoy the places that you find and show us.
