The "front door" to Cheyenne Mountain and the underground NORAD Cheyenne Mountain Operations Center. The tunnel entrance is 29 feet wide and 22.5 feet high. The famous 25-ton blast doors are one-third of a mile into the mountain and open into the side of the tunnel. The "back door" (South Portal) is at the end of the 0.9-mile tunnel.
