KISawyer AFB after closure.

A video tour of K.I Sawyer a year after it was closed. Every college graduate in America can return to their college campus and relive their glory days. It's different for military personnel and families. OUR old stomping grounds are either restricted or closed entirely. What were once vibrant self-contained cities are now ghost towns. There are said to be only two good bases in the U.S.Air Force: the one you just left, and the one you're going to next. But Sawyer truly was a special place. On a ski trip to Suicide Bowl in Ishpeming in 1996, I swung through K.I. and grabbed as much footage as I could. Much of the base was under three feet of snow, and the roads weren't plowed. But you'll still get a feel for it. Today, the base looks much the same as it did when I was stationed there 1980-82. the south gate has been reconfigured, but most of the rest of the buildings are there. Except for a few houses that exploded when the meth labs blew up. If you're thinking about planning a trip to the U.P., I say 'go for it'! Marquette is a happening place that has retained its charm. It's a great vacation spot. . . in July. Read the comments below. You'll hear the fondness that people had for the Upper Peninsula and the "Base in the Woods".
