Jer and Shane outside the Documentation Center - and the start of the bunker system.
Peering into one of the many rooms - and standing in an air-raid shelter. At one time these rooms were completely and lavishly furnished - however now all that remains is the bare concrete. Many places are now blocked off from visitors - but if they weren't you could easily get lost in the maze of underground tunnels (apparently 4 miles worth). Amazing how these bunkers were carved/built out of the rock in these mountains.

Below is a picture of a buffer where on the otherside was an entrance to the bunkers. Each entrance was built with 3 machine guns aimed at the entrance behind a buffer wall. Peering through one of the machine gun holes - can you make out the staircase? Any uninvited guest didn't stand a chance.
