Living local to fort Pitt, iv known about the tunnels for a good 7 years but have failed to find the entrance on a number of occasions

In 2020 I got told that an entrance had been found and you can access the part of the tunnels, but I held off going for ages because it got very popular with other explores.

In Feb 2021, I finally went to the small part tunnels, because it had died down with other people going to it, get into the tunnels well that was an interesting one for sure but I’m gonna leave it there. Once inside I was surprised that a lot had been back filed in but there was still a decent amount to see, overall spent a good 30/40 mins in there taking photos.

The Guardhouse :
Well there is not much to say about the guardhouse & iv been before, but to my surprise, I was surprised to see it still open 😂 This one is not that interesting only because it one room but made a good mooch.
