you don't need a map... it's all abandoned and it's all wide open with no patrols ever. The EDIC seems to no longer seal the buildings which I used to open back up. Over the summer I opened everything and they never sealed it again, unfortunetly. There's also tunnels too, I marked paths in some of them with orange so people dont get lost, they're small steam tunnels.

^^^^^

This, you don't need to scout it out just go.  I was there last the last week of January, the only thing you'll run into is an occasional dog walker.

I am not a huge fan of this place, to be brutally honest, but i did enjoy these shots from my two visits this year.

I like that first shot.  I've never seen the red wall with the hospital bag thing though, is that in the hospital building somewhere I take it?

Not that I recall. I hid it in a cooler before I left.

I was at Belchertown last weekend and there is NO security and there where other people coming in as we were leaving
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
