Hello fellow urbexers, I have come to request an elevation of my status from Level 1 to the highly prestigious, Level 2. I've always been interested in history and how life was like back then, and that led me to discovering urban exploring, areas preserved for me to see and imagine what life was like back then. I made this account in September 2023, but I only really started posting in February 2024, and up until the past few days, my posts were sporadic. My first ever urbex activity was rooftopping a school, and after that, I got addicted to rooftopping schools, but after a while, I committed more to actual abandoned places, which I pursued whenever I had free time. It's taken me a little bit of time, since I focus a lot of my time on school and other extra-curriculars, along with the fact that making plans with friends is hard, but I found a little bit of time over the past few days and that has allowed me to finally reach and also surpass the minimum requirements, with 5 locations and 12 albums, with all my locations having write-ups. My photography skills may not be good, and my albums may not be the best, but I am always looking to improve. I always try my best to take interiors pictures that help people see my journey through the entire place, as I walked through it. I also forgot to take good exteriors a lot in my earlier albums, something that I have been working on in my last few, and I hope to work towards a better balance and more visually appealing albums in the future. Overall, I believe that Level 2 will bring me more locations that can allow me to practice my skills and help me with making albums that are better for anyone stumbling across them. I will also continue to work on finding locations for this community, and doing writeups for them, and Level 2 will give me some more motivation in doing that. That is why I believe that I should be considered for promotion to level 2. Thank you. If there's any advice that anyone can give on any of my locations or albums, I'd be really happy to hear about it.

February 2023: We have a hunt camp in Nemegos. We are the first camp on the right after you cross the bridge and before you cross the tracks. Our buildings are red with green roofs. We spend a lot of time up there from April to mid November. My husband Bill just got back from a 2 week stay. Even though it is February, he was able to drive in from the south end of the Nemegos Road off Hwy 667. The road is not always open, but this year the logging company that logged 2 years ago, has opened up the road to get their wood out. Some years the CPR plows it, but not every year.The north end of Nemegos Road that goes to Hwy 101 is not open this winter. For the record, there are 5 permanent residents in Nemegos as of this date. They are Gary & Janet Sneider, John Stevens (Janet's brother) and brothers Larry and George Koski. Levis Andelin was a permanent resident up until a few years back. He spends the winters in Chapleau and summers in Nemegos. There are many part time residents in the spring, summer and fall months such as ourselves Bill & Jan Hilliard. We hail from North Bay area. Other camp owners are from Chapleau, Sault Ste. Marie, ON., Ottawa, ON, several from Michigan USA, New York USA. Everyone is off-grid. Most folks use a combination of generators & solar power. The CPR operates the Budd Car from Sudbury to White River on a regular schedule. Nemegos is a flagstop. It drops us right at our door. How cool is that! Drop in anytime. We'd be glad to see you!
