Interesting. I had no idea they detonated bombs outside the testing range.
They were using bombs instead of drilling rigs for awhile!
Green Valley, Colorado
The aim of Project Rulison was to determine if natural gas could be easily liberated from underground regions. The test had a yield of 43-kilotons. After the test, the natural gas that was extracted was determined to be too radioactive to be sold commercially.

Rio Blanco, Colorado
The Rio Blanco test site had three simultaneously detonated 30 kiloton bombs, each at the bottom of a shaft more than a mile deep. The blast was marginally successful in causing the gas to collect in the cavity and fissures produced by the bombs, however the gas was too radioactive to be sold commercially.

There's good dispersed camping in the Sacramento Mountains, too. Even more good camping west of Barko's neck of the woods.
Barko, thanks for the link to the atomictourist site. Interesting.
