    Didnt the iriquoi style wooden armor have a "skirt" as apposed to leggings or pants? Could that be a simple explanation of the "one legged" cryptids described in the vinland saga? Could the european surcoats and maille shirts be the simple explanation of the iraquoi oral history of one legged beings?

    I have a similar inflatable boat that is even smaller and can go down to inches of water. A Sea Eagle Paddleski. Sea Eagle is America's most popular inflatable kayak brand (their out of Long Island NY). I have their current model, Paddleski 437ps & the previous model the 435ps which I've had over a decade and used hundreds of times. Both versions fit int he trunk of a car. The tubes are smaller than Kaboat and you can very easily cart these on portages or even carry them with your hands a very short distance alone. The 437ps has larger tubes than the 435ps and can take up to a 6HP motor. The 435ps can take up to a 3HP motor, but also offers paddling performance comparable to the average inflatable kayak which I really like because I enjoy kayaking. Best of both worlds. The 437ps can be kayaked also, but only in calm conditions and it's more work. I'm pretty sure Kaboat would not be fun to kayak at all with tubes that large. But as your using a much more powerful motor, these boats won't handle that kind of speed, but are far more portable and no doubt easier to setup. So portable I've taken mine to more than 150 locations. I compared to Kaboat and met one person that has both. The Paddleski is similar, offers superior paddling and much more portable. But if you need a larger motor than 6HP, Kaboat offers that.

I lead a few trips to it and truly wish I took pictures down the tube into the camber with the falls. Doing research I have found no internet information on the cave. Love your videos. Kevin

    I'm going to do the four mineshafts on the SRT just outside of Otisville with a few friends in a couple weeks. The ones right before where your drone shot the high rock wall near what I think must have been a stamping mill and/or a staging areo for loading ore onto train cars. I've explored Shawangung Mine / Mamakating Mine many times before. I only got as far as the ore chute and the old hoover vacuum and I was more than waste deep in water in 2014. they've since barred it off. You're very lucky to have been able to explore while they drained the water for "reasons".

      I grew up in Otisville and have been to and in the mines. Most are caved in but one youcan go in. It goes back a few hundred feet Y's off then stops. There is one tunnel going left and stopping. A tunnel to the right is blocked but you can see down it. The mines are down the old train bed with No tracks. You can access them just outside Otisville on route 211 and Otisville rd. The shawangunk ridge trail is right there. They are about 2 miles down on the left. If you take Main street all the way up to a horseshoe turn that turns into schobl street that drive way on the turn used to run to the mines. That is where the mines are that caved in.

    A similar copper mine tunnel exists in Manchester dug the side of a steep hill. I walked to its blind end, maybe 200 feet into the hillside when I was 11 or 12 years old. It was about 6 feet in diameter and I wore my father's hip boots against the 18 inches or so of water. The hillside has since slipped and covered the mouth of the tunnel. At the top of the hill is a deep conical depression which I think was an attempt to create a vertical shaft down to the tunnel. Although it's been decades, using the depression atop the hill, I'm pretty sure I can find the location of the tunnel mouth. Immediately below it is a stream where you can still find rocks with the green tinge of what I guess is the malachite ore. But the ore wasn't pure enough or in sufficient quantity and the mine was abandoned. The Manchester Historical Society has additional information, including some old photographs.
