Urban Exploration as defined by the athority (Wikipedia) on the net is “the examination of the normally unseen or off-limits parts of urban areas or industrial facilities. Urban exploration is also commonly referred to as infiltration, although some people consider infiltration to be more closely associated with the exploration of active or inhabited sites. It may also be referred to as “draining” (when exploring drains) “urban spelunking”, “urban caving”, or “building hacking”.

The nature of this activity presents various risks, including both physical danger and the possibility of arrest and punishment. Many, but not all, of the activities associated with Urban Exploration could be considered tresspassing or other violations of local or regional laws.”

I personally don’t see anything wrong with it.  Most UE practiconers are alot like the folks I hike with  Leave no Trace is their Moto.  Vandals deface, defile, rob, and steal– UE practicioners leave a site as they found it and usually will not share the location of a site unless its to a trusted source.  Many UE sites have disclaimers, but my favorite Infiltration does not and either do I.  Look, if you do something illegal and get caught– its your fault and you can’t blame anyone but yourself.  This portion of my site shares my UE adventures and hopefully encourages UE adventures of your own.

Here are links to some of my adventures:
