There is a building in Harrisburg that we will be checking periodically. We have survival office set up with refrigeration nearby, coffee, food to last for a few days, adequate emergency lighting, etc. The occupier of this space is ready as a next generation leader for after Z-Day.

GPS N40° 13.766', W076° 47.2678'

In the event of Z-Day, anyone who survives long enough to make the trip is welcome to join me at Owen J. Roberts High School. If you think about it on that side of the river Owen J. is the highest point around you can see for miles in any direction, plus its plenty of room for hunderds of people, has its own generator and well, and constantly has enough food to feed hundreds of students in both the middle and high scools. Plus This gives two groups of survivors a facility that has radio comunication with the other group. At the first hint of zombie attack I will be taking and securing the high ground. With some minor fortification these building are as good as any castle from the middle ages. Plus quick access to Rt23 / Rt100 / Rt422 /Rt 401 and Rt113 via Rt100 we can go any direction for supplies or to search for other survivors. Hopefully we never live to see Z-Day, but if we do ill see you there!

Whats up, Khruschev here. I live 5 min away from the Pittsburgh childrens hospital of UPMC, It would make a Great point of meeting come Z-day.

I plan to use the mental ward (visited the spot), and found it is one way in/ 2 ways out.
First, Its in a centralized location to the city. Second, it has ample room for about 250+ people. Third, emergency hospital generators and emergency back up for contaminated waterm (12 day supply for hospital on full capacity). Fourth, there is a cafeteria with emergency foods and canistars of gas. Fifth, the ability to quarrentine newcomers into one room, to make sure they are not infected or attempting a location take over. Final reason, the almost unlimited medical supplies, and mediceins to treat injurys and illness.

The plan for a speedy transient entry will be as follows.
At the emergency entrance, there will be a dream catcher hanging off the revolving doors.
Take it, it will be your ticket in.
Upon discovery of the missing dream catcher, the patrol will announce everyone currently residing at the compound to take defensive and protective measures to insure no contamination.
Once the lock down is completed, There will be a time and location left for you to enter along with a challenge and password.
BE AT THE LOCATION WITH THE DREAM CATCHER VISIBLE, OR YOU WILL NOT GAIN ENTRANCE AND POSSIBLY WILL BE FIRED APON.
*You will be instructed to strip, place all articles into a box (your effects will all be returned, cleaned), seperated, and deloused. This is only the first part of quarintine.
*You and your group (still naked and seperated) will be inspected by security and a doctor, then placed in a room with a bed, meal, toilet bucket, and blanket for but not limited to 5 days. You will be provided 2 meals a day, and will have completed a metal evaluation before being able to enter general population.

There is an area called Vintondale. It is up almost into the mountains, there are several ways to get there without traveling through very populated areas. The specific location I am talking about is the Eliza Furnace. http://www.indianacountyparks.org/parks/ef/ef.html

It is located off of a nature trail, though it can be reached by road also, if that is a viable mode of transportation (who knows how it will actually go down).
40.517241, -78.864949‎
+40° 31' 2.07", -78° 51' 53.82"
If you're running a GPS that will get you close, you'll be bale to see it, it's basicly a huge oven. If no GPS it's just west of the intersection where 271 meets and runs with 422.

There is a nature trail that parallels this called the "Ghost Town Trail" which is on any local area map.

When it goes down I will lay several survey stakes near the furnace. If you wish to make contact stick the stakes into the ground. I will be monitoring the area for a while. If after 2 days there is no response from me...there is probably no me....lol

I hope to have a short-wave with me, if it's running I will be monitoring, and my handle is BigLoki. I can't guarantee a join-up. But one of mine will meet one of yours to discuss it. This is only a temporary location for me (hopefully one season) if I abandon my temp. location, I will provide directions to my former set-up. They will be in a plastic baggie in the upper portion of the mouth of the furnace. At my former location there will be a set of directions for another meeting place near my next BOL. Obviously if I left that location because of a security issue, I will not give you directions to your possible death (if I can help it), but rather directions to meet near my next BOL, and a reason why I left the present one.

Not ideal, but better than most will leave you.

To my Philly/Philly area survivers. Any ideas on where to meet/fortify. I would suggest that it is not within the city due to the sheer number of infected to be expected within urban enviroments, but not too far so that when necessary raid groups can be organized to scout and gather the abundant resources located within the city.
