I find it absolutely horrific that people can leave the woods covered in trash like this it's deplorable to say the least there's no reason they cannot pick up after themselves. I was homeless Once Upon a Time for 5 years in all four seasons and never ever did my encampment look like that I literally would sweep the ground to keep my area clean I would take my trash out every day and put it in a dumpster. There is no reason for homeless people to leave the land in this condition with their trash I understand you might be homeless but it doesn't mean you have to be a litterbug.. it was amazing nobody even knew I was homeless because I kept myself clean my clothes clean and I kept my campsite clean and my tent clean and I kept my pots and pans clean and my bed clean literally Everything clean even during snow storms.. there's no excuse for this kind of disgusting Behavior of leaving not just a bag of trash behind butt truckloads

I have a theory concerning the juxtaposition between the obvious effort put in to the site and the mess it has become. A group of decent homeless folk made the initial camp. Eventually the wrong people found out about it and came along and ruined it. No doubt they would have been involved in crime, hence the abundance of tools and car parts which have been stripped of their valuables. Once these people showed up the decent homeless folk would have had to move on and, eventually, with no one to clear up the mess being made the whole site would have been abandoned.

Your scenario is valid; however, with a growing number of people, that would get the attention of the authorities. This would be trespassing, and the cops would clear the camp out, but leave the stuff behind. With a dig in the police blotter at the local newspaper, and he will discover when the cops cleared it out. This was cleared no more than one year ago, because too much of the stuff is still in good shape. I WOULD CONTACT THE STATE LEVEL EPA, AND GET THEM INVOLVED. WITH FUELS STILL ONSIGHT, THAT IS A DANGER TO THE COMMUITY.

Hi I'm from Ohio and there are tons of places like this around not far from the parks. Some parks are actually built on top of landfills, and the homeless are quick to take advantage of whatever they find. It may surprise you that some people actually have jobs but choose to live out in the woods because they don't want to pay the crazy prices of living in a home or apartment. Up here, we do have cold winters, so they usually seek some kind of lodging for that time indoors. Around here it's common for them to buddy up to someone with housing for those months. In the spring they are out again, taking showers and baths wherever they can, using public restrooms, wal-marts, whatever. I expect covid was rough, not many 24hr places. Oddly enough, most of them lived through that time just fine without masks or distancing. I know this because I used to live two blocks from a soup kitchen. I think living outside most of the year probably must give you a robust immune system! Hiking through many areas near the river we'd find many of these sites.

First time viewer. When I was young My friends and I built a 3 floor cabin tree house. With a roof with lots of dirt clods that is hard dirt or sand dirt that you can throw and repel your enemies. Unfortunately my enemies were my older brother and his friends. I guess about 5 on 5 kids but my brother was 5 years older. Well after the neighborhoods legendary fight we came out on the loosing end and they torn everything apart and tied me up. It was in the woods about a 200 yards from the house and for some reason everybody forgot me and others thought someone else was going to come and get me. About 10 pm at least I saw flashlights🔦 with about 6 adults looking for me but I was gaged and could not scream. But they found me. My dad was a little upset but it is a great memory. I told you that story because I thought there had to be several kid gangs or maybe older that had wars or a war and torn up camp grizzy. Also seeing RIPSANDY gave me a eerie feeling that what if Sandy died young or even died there in a accident. Something was not right. Great show for me. A old timer. Take care. Hope to watch you again. I saved you.

Definitely had to be an easier way to get in there than the route you took. When you mentioned a train that was the ticket. I stumbled upon an encampment hiking along the Lehigh River in Lehighton. It's really big. Like this, there is junk everywhere. And, it's located close to railroad tracks. That, and major trails seem to be the common denominator in terms of location choice. The one in Lehighton is also has distinct tree blazes to follow from the RR tracks to the camp. There are also quite a few along the D and L Trail outside of Sand Island, Bethlehem. If I were you, I'd be careful entering an encampment area if you stumble upon one again. Thanks for taking us along....

Those weird marks on the tree are from insects that eat the bark off, eventually killing the tree. I like the wall. Was there a Bastian Fort there? Or a 'Battery"?

Do you know how to do LIDAR there? Was that a landslide or a flood? Was that an old bridge? I knew there had to be access to this place at one time. It looks like flood damage to me. Coal? Figures.

The R.I.P Sandy, and Max and Sandy signs lying around the area are weird and strange. Especiall since the R.I.P SANDY graffitti was from this year in m March. Then the smell that made you wanna leave or not go into that area. It could be decomp of animals or of human remains. Hard to say. Also down that embankment, it seemed like maybe someone was trying to hide something, as just so much stuff is thrown over the top of a tarp. I'd say it maybe best to call someone on that location if you've not done so. There's a chance, that with it being what looks like a homeless shelter. Possibly this sandy person died there, from hunger/dehydration etc. Then whoever Max is or who was there, could of done there best to bury the body in that area or dump the body etc. They seem well organized in the sense of a homeless camp type. Where they have specific things in specific areas. There was also a cross built when you first entered the encampment area. You can see it down the hill. So possible, however could be unlikely someone would be buried there. But none the less. Having authorities come through and check the area would atleast give my brain a clear conscious knowing that someone came to investigate lol. Figured I'd point it out.

I find it very strange that all of the circuit boards are brand new unpopulated boards. Wonder what they were for? Bet they could be traced down through the serial number / order number on them.

😀I definitely watched this one to the end. There was no telling what you might find next. I wonder if the landowner knows of this, or if they do, if they are planning to ever get all that junk hauled off. Can't be good for the forest to have all that old fuel, oil and lord only knows there.

That place had a lot of potential to be an ideal off-grid residence. Build a small hovel into the hillside with plenty of bracing & supports. Use the lower level to grow food but not in an orderly fashion so as to avoid the appearance of being occupied from breaks in the trees, keep fish fresh after a trip to the nearby river by using a makeshift fishpond, move any external structures well under cover, etc. I don't proclaim to know what the purpose of all the junk, clothes, chainsaws, animal cages, mobility scooter, etc. were all about - or why things were arranged with no sense of organization. That site might've been abandoned in March after "Sandy" passed away & this could've been the result of hikers fiddling around with whatever they came across? Perhaps the pet cages were to keep them safe at night from predators OR to run a puppy mill off grid? Not a bad idea of how to earn cash, off the books, while living off grid.

If someone lived there with a dog, they may have caged it when they left the site. Or perhaps just part of the hoarding. I saw fish tanks and smaller animal cages as well.

Not all homeless people sit around at corners begging. Some actually have some incomes (disability, veteran's benefits, etc) .and most prefer to stay invisible.
