🚲Cycling to the Nike Missile Base in Los Angeles California 🎯

I cycled up Oat Mountain to find an abandoned Missile base! Exploring the forgotten remnants of the Cold War era, I ventured up to the abandoned Nike missile base near Oat Mountain in LA County. Hidden amidst the rugged terrain and overgrown vegetation, the base stands as a haunting relic of a bygone time. The winding trails leading to the site offered breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and valleys, contrasting sharply with the eerie stillness that enveloped the decaying structures. As I walked through the crumbling buildings and rusting machinery, I couldn’t help but imagine the tension that once gripped this place. The silence now feels both peaceful and unsettling, a stark reminder of how time erases the fears of the past. This exploration was a fascinating journey through history, offering a unique blend of adventure and reflection in the midst of LA’s natural beauty. #nike #coldwar #missile
