McCulloch bought it in 1963... he tested motors out of that building... not sure what is in it now... but it is the famous ledge everyone sits on to watch the site 6 failures!!  

Long Military history goes to site 6 by the way.

my knowledge tip of the day!   :rotflmao

The one along the launch ramp. Don't know what they use it for these days.

Love seeing stuff like that.   :good

Hmmm.  I thought it was just an office and restrooms.  I'll have to take a closer look next time and see what its use is for.   :stupid  :confused  :stupid

Site 6 is a blast to launch and retrieve if you have your act together. We got a 9.5 last time I used it. I guess we had room for improvement on speed.  :laugh    :laugh

Yup.  With the right crew and 4wd for when the ramp is slippery....its easy enough.  I have the right partner that we can easily launch and retrieve.   :beer
