Former Bombing Range Open to Public -Carli Copell, Ped.6

Former Bombing Range Open to Public


This article is explaining the reopening of a "used to be" bombing range to open up to the public. The article reads, after two years of critical observation, San Miguel Island in California's Channel Islands has been set to reopen this month. One of the five islands that make up Channel Islands National Park near Ventura, San Miguel was closed two years ago by the military due to safety concerns. The US Navy examined the beaches, campgrounds, miles of trails and other areas at surface level looking for explosives. However, there are some new rules with the reopening of the island. Now visitors must sign a liability waivers and access permits in order to be able to step foot onto the range!

Analysis: This article was quite interesting to read about. I personally wouldn't go visit this place, but for people looking for a thrill this is the place for them. This can relate back to the actual bombing of the San miguel Islands. Very interesting read!
