Ontario Abandoned Places will be rebranded as Ominous Abandoned Places

Exploring solo vs group

What are people's preferences when it comes to exploring alone or with friends? I've only ever done solo missions. I assume that having someone around is useful for assisted climbing, watching for alarms, etc., but you also have to coordinate and the bigger group might attract more attention.

I find it depends on the site, doing my normal house exploring I prefer to be solo, easier to go unnoticed. But for larger sites I find one other person is good, for example we have an abandoned navy base here which is a very large site I'll bring my brother as videographer, gaffer, sherpa, and just an extra set of hands. Have tried a larger group (a film group) but it became difficult with everyone walking into other peoples shots and added to the risk of somebody noticing more cars then normal outside an abandoned building.

I almost always go with one other person, since I get pretty scared otherwise (also it’s more fun for me.) Sometimes we bring others as well though.
