Deep Under Colorado is a Sprawling Remnant of the Cold War

WARNING: Under no circumstances should you enter this property. By doing so you risk bodily harm and/or prosecution for trespassing on private property.

These days, you don't hear too much about the Cold War, but at the time the United States was readily prepared for a disaster that luckily never came to fruition.

You're probably familiar with what's underneath Cheyenne Mountain, but did you know that a sprawling missile silo was built right here in Colorado?

Keep scrolling to learn about, and take a virtual tour, of a bleak reminder of the Cold War that has been sitting abandoned deep under Colorado since the 1960s.

Abandoned Missile Silo Deep Beneath Colorado

Just outside of Deer Trail, Colorado, in the middle of nowhere, is a large field that is currently privately owned but was once the site of a sprawling missile silo constructed by the United States Government during the Cold War.

The underground facility is absolutely massive, and while trespassing is strictly prohibited, that hasn't stopped the likes of numerous urban explorers as well as graffiti "artists," some with more artistic talent than others.

Again, please do not attempt to explore the site yourself as it is not only illegal but can be very dangerous as well.

However, if you keep scrolling you'll see a glimpse into the past as we take a virtual tour of the sprawling tunnels and sites where if provoked, the United States had planned on firing massive missiles out of.
