bump (for Marilyn Monroe)

Awesome pictures man, It's on my places to visit list

I love the Falls. I get up there at least 1 every month or so.

wow those are awesome man nice pics never seen the falls all frozen over

I've been there in the winter too. It's very beautiful, and there are ALOT less tourists.

Good one! Nice pix too...

Nice one mate ;)
Have you been in the powerplant down by there?

Yep, the lower plant at river level below Table Rock.

We (Avatar-X, Roadwolf, Nightbird, Boffo and a few others) made our way from the plant up through the tunnels and valve chambers to the upper road level and exited near Victoria Restaurant (next to the light battery).

I've since gone back and re-shot the plant and tunnels a few times at night myself, though.

I saw your shots of the upper plant awhile back. Some great work there.

Went there as a child and I have always wanted to go back.. nice pics

cool pics man!

Great pics! Makes me wish I was there right now.

very nice shots! still haven't seen the falls in person yet

nice pics !!

Great pics

thanks for sharing them. I haven't been there though

Great pics, one of those must see places

that one, right?

I really wanted to take the emergency lift back up lol. Didnt know there were tunnels that went up too!

Yep, that's the one. I'll toss up a pic or two from the tunnels later.

The tunnel/staircase and valve chambers was accessible through a small door in the main control room on the upper floor area. Kinda' hard to find. It was a helluva hike to the top, but got amazing pics.

Shit, I thought the title said "Nigeria on Ice".

Expected a bunch of western union scammers skidding around on an ice rink...

awesome pics.

awesome pics.

I found the tunnel to the escape lift, and to the stairs going to the top of the building, but didn't find a way to walk up to the top. Crazy shit.

This was w/ Siologen and Infectoid.. great expo. Did you see the lockers downstairs, marked w/ the number/letter combos? We managed to get the keys to the locker marked 'G1NGER - 4' lol

Did you notice on the lower levels that your ears popped when you walked through the baffles? That was weird.

I'd love to see your photos, link link link.

Have you abseiled the tunnels in the upper powerstation?
That place was totally dope (half a submerged powerstation..and the ORIGINAL, first ever tesla designed and made A/C generators..wow wow), but the lower floors were probably the scariest things I've done.

For the folks at home - this is the powerstation that's about 400m from the falls. Half of the powerstation is flooded (intentionally, it used to then drop into the tubes 8 stories below to turn the turbines).. It was built over 100 years ago, and is situated literally on / in the feeding river.

Down the bottom of the station, there are HUGE, and I mean HUGE redbrick tunnels that lead out UNDER the fall curtain. The only way into them is to abseil from the bottom floor of this powerstation.

One floor below ground level, it's absolute dark.
Two floors down, the roof is leaking like it's raining hard.
Three, four, five floors down, nothing has been touched for decades. The staircases are rusted out under your feet, the walls are running with water, and it's raining, inside a building.
6, 7, 8 floors down, the ground is totally flooded, it's cold, foggy, pissing down ice cold water, and you're 8 stories underground, with only one thin brick wall protecting you from the force of the niagara river pouring in on top of you.

Crazy crazy stuff!

^^ thats a ridiculous pic
