I visited the Georgia Guidestones today - pics

So, i was traveling across Georgia today for business and decided to take a small detour to the Georgia Guidestones just to see them in person for myself. I passed by a beautiful lake and a massive dam that both were 10 or so miles out from the guidestones, but other than that the area was quite remote. Mostly there were churches, pine forests, feed mills, farms, a few trailer parks, and off the road homes.

It's striking at how easily this monument, or whatever it is, could just be completely passed over if you didnt know what you were looking for. There are no signs or advertisements telling you anything about it, except for one lone street sign:




The road leading to it is little more than the little dirt roads leading to private residences that youd see in most out of the way rural areas..

The parking area is nothing more than granite slabs laid down to create a square. The guidestone slabs themselves are quite impressive, and after them the first thing you see are 2 signs clearly indicating that there is surveillance in the area:







There was an adjacent home nearby with many signs clearly indicating to keep the hell out. There was also an old barn nearby that didnt appear to be occupied.

The Georgia Guidestones are accompanied by a stone pedestal as well as a granite slab buried into the ground, both embedded with information on the origin of the stones and some other astronomical and physical characteristics:







That last photo shows something about a time capsule to be dug up but gives no date. I found this odd.


I took some other photos of the stones, including a column drilled into one (indicating the celestial pole) and the horizontal slot (signifying the sun's horizontal travel):









Of course the most famous slab:



I thought the top slab looked rather precarious lying on the three columns, but of course its likely quite sturdy:



I also saw this engraving in a few spots on the slabs - not sure what it means (possibly the contractor?)



Probably the most striking thing about this site is the sheer remoteness. In the 20 minutes of travel off the main highway (where the lake is) and the 30 minutes of being at the guidestones site, i did not encounter a single vehicle or person. I was completely alone , which im usually at extreme peace with, but i was uneasy at this place. It was a bit eerie, for lack of a better word.

Adjacent field:



I drove around a field to get to the opposite side from the stones (maybe 1/2 a mile away or so) as the field above, you can see the security camera and the stones on the horizon:



Again , complete desolation.

Im not sure how, if these stones are a guide as the official story states, why theyre so remote. No future civilization would ever find them in time!
