I google earthed it and it falls in the hills of the Catskill Mountains , approximatly 40 miles southeast of  Binghamton, N.Y. just like the article says..google earth doesnt show a very good image of the area but it is in a valley amoung tall hills..... Looks like theres may be some legitamacy to this...

I live about about 1.5 hours from hancock and travel down that way often for work.  Let me know what you need and I will see what I can do.  I will be doing some logging work for the DEC down there for the next 2 weeks.

Yeah, the entire area is in low resolution on Google Earth.  While the area seems remote enough for something like this, I'm still unsure.

Any serious reconnaissance of the area would inolve being off the beaten path, and if a serious <insert word> compound be dangerous.

When you google earth that Roods Road address, it is incorrect.  From what I can tell it is actually more north than that address.  I believe the compound is closer to Moslem Road.  On google earth there appears to be a compound very close to the area of Moslem Road, and somewhere off of Roods Road.

Edit: Ok, I have pinpointed the location on Google Earth of Moselm Road and Roods Road using roadmaps available on google and other sites directly.

Its a bit of a haul from Buffalo, but if anyone wants to caravan for a "camping trip" in the Catskill Forest Park region, I'm good to go.

For your Google Earth perusal, I believe this to be a more accurate location of the compound.  Keep in mind this is preliminary and of course I'm working on information that I got from that article and other google searches.


Google Earth Lat/Long: 42 03'51.92" N,   75 20'36.59" W

You'll see that this places you directly on a a light colored splotch which may be a clearing with buildings, and near another area (North West just a teeny bit from the main area) which appears to be a darker colored area (may possibly be a big dirt clearing or something?  Firing range?)  Google Earth measure calls this area about .11 +/- .01 across in various directions...In other words, about .11 square miles....11 square miles is about 70 acres...70 acres is the purported size of the compound in the article!  That triangle of what appears to be roads to the East of the area in question is Roods Road and Moslem Road.




Google Map of Hancock, NY, zoom in near the water to see Moslem and Rood Road

I found another satellite imagery service (Microsoft is apparently giving it a try) image that agrees with my thoughts.  The pictures are actually better than Google Earth.  



local.live.com/default.aspx?cp=42.058457|-75.337571&style=h&lvl=15&v=1

This actually shows a main compound area and two smaller ancillary compound areas.  Rood Road is marked, and Moslem Road is the unmarked road headed SE in the bottom right corner of the map.  The road IS  marked, but not when the image is centered like this.

Looks like a great place for a pig roast. Say the word and the "caja china" is mobile.
We park out in front of the place and have a bash!!

Ed,
I can swing by the county office building and get tax maps and owner info if you want.  I am in the timber industry and can probably get permission from the surronding land owners to walk thier property and scope it out and do some recon work for you.  If anyone with a pistol permit want to join me, feel free.

Roasted pig,Cuban style

Maybe we can make this a Spring picnic.Accessible from PA,NYC and western NY

Can test night vision equipment,etc

I say we plan this for Spring,which is around the corner.Find a nearby camping site,range,etc and as a site seeing trip,we check the neighbors out.

I'll bring the beer!



I'm up for a pig roast. And lots of bacon for breakfast, of course.

Would this be a good trip to lug the long range photography gear along? I'd love to do some wildlife photography up there, spring should be good for the nuthatches and the 1200mm stabilized lens lets me get good pictures of the skittish little creatures. Since I can't bring handguns or post-ban lowers to NY from NJ, I might as well bring optics to share. Nice stabilized binoculars for spotting too. Somewhere I've got a statewide collection of  topo maps that are overlaid with known roads and trails, forget the publisher but I picked them up a while ago while scouting for places to buy land for a winter cabin.

Sounds like its turning into a real sneak-n-peak operation. Tell you what, I'll stay in the rear with the beer and the gear! Just call me the camp bitch.

I cut-pasted an article from 2002 from The New York post about this place. Its been 'discovered' a long time ago by the media, DHS, FBI, etc. Take a look at the link to the other thread in General.

If you do a google on the group that runs the compound, you will find links to a bunch of info on them as well as some blog entries. Found out they have compounds in some other states as well, closest being VA and the NY compound. Definitely peaks your curiosity.

This report is pretty friggin disturbing.
Their head honcho was the one who set up Daniel Pearl, and that alone earns him a one way trip to meet Allah in my book.
Think he'd accept a bunch of 55 grain engraved invitations from the crew here?

Squirrels,nuts,penguins......same difference!

Anyway,what about a camping trip there in the Spring with those who can make it from NY,NJ,PA and any other place that wants to go.

Then, a couple of us go and check the story out with the neighbors.If any truth we take a closer look.
Case closed!

Why don't you tell the guys in the other thread what you know about this "intelligence" net nuts.Who cares if they call you an apologist? SP10 and I have called you worse!



Ed,
I think this is a great idea.  Alot less invasive (sp?) then what I was planning.  I would love to have a campout, pig roast, and meet everyone.  If there is no truth to this story than aleast we will have a fun camping trip to remember.

Thanks for the ingo.

Anything else will be most welcome



I have Delorme Topo maps on CD rom for that area and a digital video camera that could be handy. I’m in for a camping trip and some “hiking” if we do it in the spring.
A good place to meet is the Roscoe diner in Roscoe about 25 mile east of Hancock on RT 17, good food. Looking at the map this camp is closer to Deposit than Hancock.
