Centralia, Pennsylvania
It's not hard to find Centralia...
...But why would you want to?
Devoid of all life, dirt and rock mark the underground fire's past progress
Steam and smoke escape through a myriad of crevices
Pennsylvania's Department of Environmental Protection monitor underground
temperatures.
At a depth of ten feet: 270° - Twenty-five feet: 360°. Highest
temperatures found: 750°+.
A weather-beaten picket fence and dying trees mark this lot
Brick columns buttress the walls of a lonely row house
