Overview

Radio Tower Bluff Road (sometimes referred to as Missile Base Road) is a unique trail just south of Green River, Utah. It is a short spur off of Crystal Geyser Road (Little Valley Road) and will take you back toward a section of the old missile base. Conspiracy theorists have reason to converge on this area. Located in the immediate area in the surrounding hills is the abandoned USAF Green River Launch Complex, known informally as New Area 51. With a quick scan of the area, keen observers can locate the abandoned buildings from the military complex which was closed down in the 1970s. This area also has some unique geology to note. If you are in the area, be sure to take this leisurely drive and explore what Green River has to offer.
