lilcrawler Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I've been doing some research, and the US Government opens up the Trinity Site two days a year. I'm planning on trying to go the first Saturday in April, so if anyone happens to be in NM, you are welcome to come with me. It's about 2.5 hours away from Socorro. http://www.wsmr.army.mil/PAO/Trinity/Pages/default.aspx Directions are located here:http://www.wsmr.army.mil/PAO/Trinity/Pages/DirectionsMaps.aspx I'm probably going to take the Alamagordo entrance.

DHappel Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 That would be very interesting. A few years ago I met up with a friend from NM at a Triumph gathering in Taos. He had always been very quiet about what he did but was obviously very intelligent. Turns out he works at Los Almos and took a few of us for a short tour - nothing fancy but it was cool to be there with an 'insider'. He still won't say what he does there. He might just be the janitor for all I know, but you get that feeling he 'knows stuff'. Sort of like talking to a special forces guy, they don't brag or really say much, but you just get that feeling there's a lot going on underneath. Now would I actually drive out there in April? That's a tough call. Maybe is all I could say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvRovr Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I believe that's the same weekend the Baja trip departs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHappel Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Looks like they also have a fall date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilcrawler Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Looks like they also have a fall date.Yeah, but I'm trying to stuff all these things in before my classes get too hard. Plus, I'm not expecting an enormous turnout for this either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilcrawler Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 I could go again in October. After all, it's only a couple hours away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVRMAN2 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Don't tell us when you go we'll know by the warm, radiating glow that you and your disco will have afterwards. You can "geiger" count on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure what you are thinking there. It's usually not a good business decision to wager with people with no money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
