    This one looks more professional than the abandoned one at Nipigon, but still has that homemade aura. https://ominous.app/browse/album/5759?page=2That’s an album of photos from the nipigon one, which seems to have been built by the onterrible government back in the day. This may have been as well.Good photos and thanks for making the effort to post this one.
