I've seen a large crumbling building just off the freeway many times so I decided to find out more about it. It used to be a cement factory built 1916 and was closed sometime in the late 70's I believe due to the company building a new plant a few miles west in Durkee. The Factory was easy to find and very accessible. It was super neat to explore but incredibly dangerous, sunken floors and roofs, crumbling walls ect. We came across the office, the floor was at least 6in thick with old papers dating back to 1956 and earlier. There are also two old houses on the property. I would recommend bringing a mask due to the immense amount of rat feces on the floor, luckily we had our bandanas to aid in being able to breath. The floors in the houses seemed pretty safe but I'd still be careful.
