Thank you for uploading this video! I remember catching these shows wayyy back when I was in high school, and never paid much attention to it. I'm much more interested in history and ghost towns now, so thank you again!
Live in GF love Phoenix as my second home, been thorough many of the relics of these mines (shout out EXploring Abandoned) and it Is a place one can truly touch history with your hands. Needs to be preserved.
Cannondale2019 I’m a driver for DCT and haul chips from Lavington to Castlegar five days a week for close to 20 years now I often think about the mining history of the places I’m passing by Miss you Bill,you were amazing wish I could have met you ✊🇨🇦
While it is true the town is gone many of the underground workings are still there and intact. There is still a ten car train parked on a siding in the mountain.
My great grandfathers brother was a hotel Keeper in Roseland according to the 1901 census. His name was Martin Salmon. His nephew John J Salmon, was killed in a mine explosion in Phoenix about 1905. He is buried in Greenwood(?) I would like to find out where I can communicate with you, or your guest to find out what I can, about these two relatives.
"Home, home on the range. Where seldom is heard a discouraging word and the sky's are not cloudy all day." Never, when you work down deep underground. It works for a good miner's song.

where is the 727 now?
My favourite place.❤
i drive through Greenwood every Friday. i need to make a pit stop at this location
There is absolutely nothing left to see except a metal sculpture looking into an old open pit mine.
Why Phoenix not turn to Historic Site
because it was sitting on top of a massive copper ore body.
April 13 was a Saturday.
