Exploring with Wade (16 min.)
Kitsault was (is) a company mining town constructed in the early 1980s and apparently abandoned in late 1983. It had houses, duplexes, apartment buildings, shopping mall, recreation center, a guest/visitor lodge, school, and hospital. And everything is remarkably well preserved with furniture, fixtures, books, etc., still in place. The town is privately owned, is apparently difficult to reach, and looked after by hired care takers, so nothing has been looted or vandalized. It would be ideal as a giant movie or television set for any production supposed to take place in the late 1970s or early 1980s. Although there is minimal maintenance being carried out, it still is remarkable how well everything is preserved. It really looks like you could walk into most any building and immediately take up residence.
