Staggering Footage Of The Abandoned Missile Silo Near Denver

If you have ever traveled east on I-70, you may (or may not) remember passing the tiny town of Deer Trail, which sits a mere 59 miles away from the heart of the city. Known as the “Home of the World’s First Rodeo,” Deer Trail is home to nearly 550 friendly residents, as well as a few restaurants, gas stations, and shops. What you may not realize about this small Eastern Plains town, however, is that it hides an old Titan I Missile Silo.

Launched during the Cold War, the Titan I was the first Intercontinental Ballistic Missile of its kind that was in use from 1961 to 1965.

After this period of time, the elaborate underground silo was abandoned.

It is now only visited by those brave enough to plunge into the depths of this dark world.

Thanks to YouTube user TheUnknownCameraman, we can get a firsthand look at this important Cold War dwelling from the comfort of our own well-lit homes:

(Please note: The Missile Silo is on private property, so please contact the land owner before exploring.)
