Anyone know if you can walk around them? I drove over the Skyway the other day and for the first time I have been down there they all were spinning and think it would be pretty cool to go stand under them and check them out.
Are they in a restricted area?
No you can’t walk around them. its restricted like any other major power supplier.
edit: it is private security so maybe you can be nice and get a tour. or bribe him
Ah damn. Thats what I was wondering. I didn’t know if the actual wind things were in a separate area that you can go see without being in the actual power plant.
Is there a access road at least you can drive up to?
yes there is. its all gated off. IIRC you can get kind of close
Drive out to Wyoming Co. Out there they’re just in the middle of cornfields. You can walk right up to the bottom of them…but you might get shot at by a farmer.
You can see a bunch in random fields flying in to the buffalo airport. Like you said tho, they all seem to be on personal properly. Some farmer might think I am a terrorist or something.
THEY KILL SEAGULLS!!!
You can get pretty close to them from the water side…
Go to Weathersfield and drive right up to the base of one if you want. You can park 1" away if you like.
what if you want to get closer?
I don’t recommend that.:snky::tinfoilhat:
would i be able to touch it and stroke the base?
I got to sit atop 2 of them…but it’s unlikely you’ll get the same oportunity.
Dan loves stroking the base.
Go out to the ones in Wyoming. There is a public road off of the main route. From there you should be able to get pretty close to these things.
yeah i was there one day and you can jump and sit a top of them. i thought there would be a noise to them and there really wasn’t a sound from these things. it’s better to go really early in the morning as no one would look at you funny for parking your car in front of them taking pictures.
I used to ride my bike out there with my uncle all the time. The farmers don’t care if you go up to them.
You know how I know you’re gay?
I was alos out in sheldon last week on 20A and you can drive right up to them and lick the base.
Anyone have specific places for them? I am not familar with the area and i cant find anything online for location of them.
