Seeing what Matthew has done to clean up and improve the property and old Atlas launch facility after it had been basically abandoned for 50+ years is truly amazing. We all enjoyed a tour of the facility before packing up our campsite. Matthew is knowledgeable and was a great guide explaining things and answering lots of questions from my son.
