Exploring and Old Abandoned Nuclear Test Site with my Goat

In the town of Dawsonville in North Georgia, there’s an old government secret. Dawson Forest was once home to Georgia Nuclear Aircraft Laboratory. My goat and I went exploring at this old testing facility. The United States Airforce along with Lockheed tested military equipment with radiation with the intent to figure out how to design a nuclear powered aircraft. What remains today is hardly recognizable as any sort of top secret site. Let me know your thoughts on this video in the comments below! Please share with a friend too :)

*Notes* I found out later that the building referred to as the Blockhouse was the building they used to conduct nuclear experiments, it wasn't necessarily where the main reactor was.

Blockhouse 34.351169,-84.144011
Pumphouse 34.355899,-84.140347
Rebar hole 34.366323, -84.167891
Tunnel 34.365258, -84.169409
