This is the site of a former US Air Force radar annex. The Thomas Gap-filler radar was active from 1958 to 1968. It had a FPS-18 radar. The building is clearly visible. Foundations for the radar tower are still in place. The building is now used for storage.

  • Red outline is incorrect. The old gap-filler radar facility is just to the north and east, that L-shaped building seen.
