Around The Pit

Circling billions of gallons of toxic water at America’s largest Superfund site.

This toxic hole is 7,000 feet long, 5,600 feet wide, and 1,600 feet deep, and it will be with us now for the next 10,000 years, at least.

In an adapted excerpt from his forthcoming book, The Way Around: A Field Guide to Going Nowhere, Nicholas Triolo details a 20-mile hike around America's largest Superfund site.

Read this excerpt exclusively on Longreads.
