What to Bring: Yourself, curiosity and any urban exploration photos you may want to share

This meetup event will allow anyone interested or curious about Urban Exploration to be able to look at some photos and/or ask any reasonable questions. This will help anyone approach it with a better understanding of the community, what it entails and any dangers that may come along with it. This will be an informal discussion where we will talk about everything from what gear we bring to Ontario's Trespass to Property Act. We are by no means experts, so we would like to invite anyone to share any photos, stories, or tips they may have.

We'll be sharing our photos and experiences exploring Europe and how it relates to our experiences in North America. If you have any questions regarding any photos in particular please feel free to check out our flickr links below:

BaRTiMuS: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bsynowiec/

We decided to go with a more informal setting for this meet so any photos will be shown on a tablet and in print. If you would like to share any photos and would like me to get them onto a tablet for you please feel free to PM me.

**DISCLAIMER**
Questions such as "How did you get into this location", "Where exactly is this location" and "will you take me here or there" are not reasonable questions. This event is put on in order to help anyone interested get started on the right foot and not a tutorial on trespassing.

Hmmm I love getting bj's from old dudes. Ironically, that's on our agenda: "Confrontations from squatters and how to best deal with these uncomfortable situations".

Oh man, I think we've just effectively scared everyone off from attending this event. Lol.

Not me. I dont care what Barts sexual inclinations are. He's my hero. And I like that shot looking down on Dundas Square, so I guess that includes you too Qualdoth. :lol:

One of my favorite things to photograph. Wish I could go but live too far away. Have you been to Barber Mill in Georgetown,ON? You would love it, but it is going to be developed so you would need to get there soon. You can check out my pics on pbase.com/Susan Grexton. It is well worth going there.

Sounds familiar, I think some of us went there a number of years ago

*sigh*


Sorry I missed this one. 24 hours without keeping any food down wasn't conducive to leaving bed last night. I hope Bart wore his Village People costume for Bynx.
