I know this place. Back in 2004 prior to one of my deployments to Iraq we trained at this location. As I recall we primarily practiced air assault operations here. I was a reconnaissance Marine at the time however I remember other branches conducting joint operations with us including an army SF team but I forget the specific Unit. The "missions" practiced here were small scale ( platoon size) stuff using 3 helicopters focused on night ops. I'm about 90% sure that this is the same place.

Have to be a little careful in places like this. I own property in a place like this in Northern Arizona. There are no fences no signs of any kind. Just roads. But it is private property that was subdivided decades ago and was to be developed. Only they found out how hard it would be to get water out there and stopped the venture back in the 50's 60's . I bought some of the land and while exploring it I found the old rebar stakes that had been driven in the ground decades ago. This rebar sticks up about 2 or 3 inches and they are everywhere since it was going to be a housing subdivision at one time. But the rebar will definitely give you a flat tire. And there is no cell phone reception out there. There are also a few strange people who live scattered across the area in campers. I say strange people because they are very very unfriendly looking. I guess they know where to drive because they definitely know how to avoid those rebar property stakes. So just be careful going on un known land. And I sure wouldn't take my daughter out there. And carry a emergency locator beacon, and plenty of firepower just to be safe if you dont know the people.

For years, the US Army & Marines trained for a European "big war" against the Soviet Union, but very few units were trained up on urban warfare or "MOUT"-- "Military Operations in Urban Terrain".It's difficult because of the 3-dimension firefight environment, and expensive because to train well, you basically need to build mock-up cities. But when we started the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, we needed to train people how to operate in the small villages that dot the landscape over there. Hasty mock-up villages like these were budgeted and built all over. Many are container units that have been painted or plastered to look somewhat realistic. They're designed to be simple and not too cluttered, since the principles of urban combat movement and room-clearing can be applied universally once learned. Simple furniture can be brought and set up if needed. A lot of times, units will have "role players" with costumes on pretending to be "civilians on the battlefield" for "shoot/don't-shoot" scenarios. Costumes can be elaborate (full Arabic gear) or hasty (one team turns their uniform shirts inside-out). Training units learn how to clear a room, establish security, and may also learn how to process captured personnel or materiel.

I live in an area where, if you drive a paved highway north, you end up in the middle of nowhere. Once out there in the middle of nowhere within the space of a week a gas station type of convenience store appeared. It had older style gas pumps, and it looked aged, as if it had been there 50 years. It was a trip!!! And it was just right off the side of the paved road. Turns out, it was a movie set built for Terminator 4. After filming, it was quickly removed and everything was made to look as if it were never there. That stuff you are showing there isn't full of bullet holes.....yet. It may be some sort of training ground, or a future movie set.

I was too busy freeking out at the sudden appearance of an old convenience store in the middle of nowhere, about 15- 20 miles north of Stanley NM on Hwy 41. that wasn't there a week before. I learned by chance that it was for T4 because I became an extra on T4 and got to learn about it through one of the set builders. If you feel brave, go back to the town in your video in about 6 months. See if it is still there, or if it is full of bullet holes, damage etc. that would give a clue as to what it is. Or go at night with a black light. See what it reveals.

hey, I think your videos are great! I just don't know what other people complain about. I was living out in Las Vegas for 5 months back in 2008 and my buddy Mark and I were exploring road to Pahrump driving through a canyon and found the entrance to Mount Potosi. On the valley floor trail was a 1964 Jetstar 88 that was rusted out and it's neat finding old stuff especially that old silver mine. we found it late in the afternoon and we were just wearing hiking shoes and shorts and not even thinking about rattlesnakes and scorpions, black widows, and other venomous creatures we were trespassing around, but we had fun that's what it means. We drove by I think two houses people were living in, nice little hillside ranches and they had their own wells, few watchful dogs and we didn't harass them or ask questions or anything we just slowly passed w/very minimal dust and they're living out there for a reason- they want space and they did not have any no trespassing signs because it's a public right-of-way. We found fossilized sea shells in rocks we broke open! You can't find that walking down the sidewalk in a city street.

the grout in the shaded areas was a different color than those in the light. Also the wood on the doors seemed to be very new and didn't show any weathering. The sign that talked about the weight limit didn't show any signs of sun damage or fading. I would guess that it's new. But the fact that the bushes in the main court yard were natural looking and not smashed down from activity seems to be strange. usually a construction site would have pathways and high traffic areas. there should be marks or tracks for heavy loader equiptment if the cement slabes were trucked in, or from cement trucks.

This would be used as a rehearsal area for some type of special operations teams like Marine Recon, S.E.A.L.S or delta. I was a Force Recon Marine and have train on many sites like this. Most of the time the Military trains on mock cities/towns to practice General urban maneuvers and M.O.U.T. But usually they are just random buildings built and laid out in no particular way. However this site looks like it was built to a pretty specific lay out, so that it would match exactly the distance between buildings & walls & roads..etc.etc. When an elite unit has a High importance mission that needs to be very precise, they will build an "exact replica" mock up to practice on. And I mean exact, like...down to the feet and inches from one structure to another. And you will do dry runs until you could everything blindfolded. For instance when SEAL Team 6 raided and killed bin laden, I guarantee they had a replica of his compound built and they ran dry runs for days before they set out to go hit the real target. These places improve efficiency and safety of risk emissions.

I do enjoy watching your videos as you get to some interesting places theat are so different from hrer in the UK. we dont have deserts.I am, however, a little surprised at the discussion that has been going on over trespass. I thought that America was supposed to be a land of the free but so many seems to be paranoid, looking over their shoulder in in case the law zooms in. I can understand it to some extent having seen some of the responses of police on youtube, but I thought (or hoped) that such things were a rarity. Am I wrong? Of course there is always the chance you might encounter a thug or weirdo, but you could do that in your own area. Here in the UK there are trespass laws but they seem to be very different for me the ones over there. you have right to wander and there are ancent footpaths, all over the place a cross private land. you are perfectly free to follow the path. If you do wander across land that has not got a path, or you wander off the path, the owner can only ask you to get back on the path or leave his property. The police would not get involved tresspass unless a crime was committed and even then it would not be a big deal, unless the crime was serious. There are some restricted military areas but they tend to have fences and warning signs. The claim is usually it's for your safty as there may be gun firing. You have got all that land around and people seem so afraid to step on in case you trespass what harm could you do walking a cross the desert. Perhaps they are afraid you will leave footprints and they will send you the bill when the owner has to bring in his cleaning lady to wipe them away!
@ExploreWithUs8 жыл бұрын
Your post is spot on, and I have pinned it to the top due to the fact that you do a very good job of pointing out the problem with most of these comments. Most of the people spewing nonsense about trespassing have no idea what they are talking about. Each state has their own trespassing laws, but they are usually very sensible, and are for the most part considered to be a minor crime if committed. What is even more interesting is the fact that US citizens have so little knowledge of public land, and the buildings located on private land. Where this video was filmed, the law states that owners of private property have to either post of fence in the land for it to be considered trespassing. That means if the land is not fenced or posted with signage, you are not trespassing (unless the owner has told you to leave or not trespass). So it's very easy to ensure you are not trespassing. It seems many people, as you correctly pointed out, are too afraid to enjoy their outdoors, so they don't want anyone else to either. This is why I think they like to say silly things about trespassing. They hate seeing others out enjoying their lives while they are afraid to do it themselves. At least that is how I see it. What do you think?

No conspiracy there, just a training compound in the middle of nowhere to keep the OP secret. Exciting find.

or.....dive into your imagination. It's a movie set. About a group of building contractors who have had their families kidnapped by cartel so they could be forced to build a mock town so the cartel could practice a raid to set El Chapo free. The contractors know they and their families are going to die anyway, so they build all sorts of flaws and inacuracies into the town to help draw attention of law enforcement -- they even build in a purposely chosen place hoping it will be discovered by a curious KZbinr......... :)

Can't be a movie set. They would have taken it down unless they owned the land. They also wouldn't post signs about load bearing walls. Bullet casing found in one of the units and it looks like some of the units are Seacan's that are welded together. Definitely military or a private training facility

View This I've been on sets. They don't put load bearing signs on sets. At least not on any of the ones I've seen. It's also sitting next to a small base that they can't access because of no trespassing signs. It's clearly something private or military.

Nah, we make 'em out of 2 x 4's with 4 x 8 luan sheets or plywood if necessary. We usually make 'em at the shop, paint 'em, disassemble 'em, drive them to location and slap them together again. If we torch them with pyro, the trash detail deals with what's left. If the flats are good and especially if they're unique, we take them back and store them, and rent them out. If they're just standard walls then it gets turned to scrap and recycled. Fancy stuff like castles, etc, is wood frames with molded fibershell wall details...this is actual concrete made to withstand weather and probably real training scenarios. Producers and studios are WAY too cheap to ever build something so substantial! LOL

It's not cheaply built though... it's steel! Movie sets have no backs and are propped up with only concern for how it looks from the camera's view. This "set" is designed to withstand some rough action. May look cheap, and generic, minus architectural features, but it's tough. 10:44 shows steel not wood "studs" or "joists".

If it was a paintball site you'd see all sorts of splat marks on the walls. Same applies if they were using SIMs type rounds with real weapons. Didn't see any spent brass inside or outside, but they typically have to police ALL that up along with spent smoke grenades, etc., before they're allowed to clear a training site.

If they policed the place like they're supposed to, it might look that nice, but someone usually breaks a window shutter or door during training. Most MOUT sites also have openings in walls, which are covered with plywood, so they can practice breaching using explosives, without really damaging the buildings themselves.

Kelvin Patterson "The Ozarks and the adjacent Ouachita Mountains represent the only large area of rugged topography between the Appalachians and the Rockies. The highest peaks, many exceeding 2,000 feet (600 m), are in the Boston Mountains in Arkansas." The Ozarks are just a short drive over in Missouri. Additionally, Mount Sunflower, in Kansas, comes in at 4,039 ft / 1,231 m - It's just so wide it doesn't have the rugged terrain of typical mountains.

yes this is a training site for learning how to clear, breach, or set up a defence position at a village in the middle East of where ever this scenario and environment applies. it is either military ( not likely because you "stumbled" upon it) or its owned by a private contracting company for training agents for security contracts over seas. by the looks of it those units look fairly knew. iv trained in mok villages just like the ones in this video. based on the terrain looks like might be in New Mexico.
