Also look for purple paint on trees, sign post, fences, etc. That also means no trespassing. Although one generally sees that out in the country more often than in the city.
More online investigation than onsite exploration these days.

Thanks, I was not aware of this.

I imagine a truck might have an issue, I cleared it easy on my motorcycle w/o ducking, so most cars should fit.

Nc, just send me a message anytime you wanna go check something out.

Someone should pretend to be a cop/investigator and go to his work today and ask him what he knows about trespassing. :lol:

I was up there today, the house is in fact gone. All that remains is a flat dirt area covered by hay. There is what appears to be a shed on the back side of the lot, I was not able to make it there before the wonderful STLCO cops showed up to escort me from the area. They were nice about it, but told me not to come back.

I think it may have been the big truck with mud tires tipping someone off. I was there for about 30 mins wandering around. They pulled up, no lights or anything, walk over just to ask what I was doing. Told them I was scouting an area for a photo shoot, showed them my AP pass and my documentation. They were pretty cool with me about it. I guess someone who maybe lives around there might have tipped them off.
