Missile Silo Ranger Program (Visit Delta-09)

A ranger is on-site at Launch Facility Delta-09 intermittently throughout the summer season (Memorial Day – Labor Day). The ranger is available to give a formal program or provide informal interpretation of the history and operations that occurred at the silo.

At this program, visitors will be able to look through a glass viewing enclosure at a Minuteman II training missile on display. The ranger will explain how the missile would launch, the power of its warhead and the variety of structures on the topside.

Delta-09 is located off Interstate 90, exit 116 approximately one-half mile to the south of the interstate.
