the steel chunks that you picked up that said ESCO, are bucket teeth from an excavator/front end loader. made right across the river from me in Portland OR. Well they used to be, theyve been outsourced to China (shocker) for 10 plus years now.
So, now the esco company has relocated from where it used to be across the river, to China, on the opposite side of the Pacific river?
I wish I would've just looked down 2" on my screen and seen your post, because it would've saved me 10 minutes of Google searches to figure out exactly what those worn looking "esco" industrial parts were. At first, I thought they were like mini buckets that would've been attached to a large trencher chain or wheel. But I finally figured out that the business end of those things was on the opposite side from the opening that I assumed were mini buckets for a trencher.
*@**20:30** Not only is there a cave entrance at ground or 6 o'clock but also a much bigger cave entrance up high at 2 o'clock*
Probably cheaper but what about the quality? Probably so cheap quality doesn't matter if they are 20 time's cheaper, I have a early LED torch(Flashlight) i bought 27 years ago with 19 LED's made from aircraft grade aluminium and cost me at that time £20, I have seen plastic replicas for £0.50
I've never heard of a snake shot before. Coincidentally, snakes and scorpions are the first thing I thought of when the dog was running around. 🐕
Picking up cans is a good way to have a scorpion fall out on you. Those things can move quickly.
I love taking these walks with you and Bear. Also, I really enjoy the views you get from the drone. Glad you found the mine. That was interesting. I look forward to your next videos. Thank you.
Normally rattlesnakes will curl up, rattle their tail to make their presence known, and move away from a threat than strike it. Usually you get bit because you came upon it suddenly or your dog put it's nose somewhere and startled the snake. I've walked within a foot of one and it rattled its tail to warn me and I jumped away. This was at night. I don't think it had any intention of biting me it just didn't want to be stepped on.
But when you get that close to one it definitely raises your blood pressure, and your fear meter goes right off the charts until you get away from it and know it can't reach you.
A young snake will bite to where an adult wouldn't so much because it knows it needs the next bite for food.
It's so cool to see the geography from the air. You can explore so many miles without the legwork. And the detail is incredible!
I just learned about k-9 rattle snake training. It’s run by someone who handles snakes and they teach dogs about the snake how to recognize it and gives the dog exposure to a rattle snake to help your dog to try and avoid them.
When walking in Snake country I walk with a long stick, making a point to whack the bushes and tap the rocks. Seems to work for me.
I like your dog. Just like you, enjoys exploring. A great companion.
Love the drone footage, you don't see many of those Troopers any more, those were one of my favorite 4x4s when they came out but I never did get one.
Rattle snake shots do NOT make the dog immune from rattle snake bites. The give the dog an additional 20-30 minutes to get your dog to emergency.
This is the best time of year for exploring.
Cool finds. The cave would be interesting to see up close.
The caves are interesting, I just think it's wise to stay out of them
@@RemoteTrooper where cave?
@@willbarker1693 It's at the end of the video
Those look like air compressors for heat pumps

Another great video..Good to see your four legged buddy out with you
Another Nice video. It's not boring at all, it's a paradise All It's Own. I do the same most days, exploring the desert floor. Very soothing. And I like your Dog. Thanks.
Your dog trying too lead you somewhere.
Thank you my dear fellow Nevadan citizen for showing me the splendor of our beloved Mojave desert.
I 2nd that from Fernley, NV
The tins haven't been touched in a 100 years lol... That made me laugh
Good exploring, love the dog. Very alert.
Thank you for the walk and drone sights
When I started watching, I was worried about your dog and snakes, but I was glad to hear you have him protected. The only time I was worried after that was when you were looking at the homemade bucket. There was a lot of spider web that looked like black widow web. While widow bite isn't usually fatal for people, I don't know about dogs and widow bites.
The other area to watch out for widows are the old tires. I used to stack up tires and check them once a week for black widows. I could collect 3 to 5 widows a week that way!
The orange cans with electrical connectors look like some form of detector. I suspect something for the rail road, or seismology? I am always interested in electronic stuff, and those would have gone home with me to find out more. Did you get a better shot of the label on the cans?
The cave looks more like a mine adit. But looking at the tailings pile, it must be small, like it didn't pan out, or they quit too soon!
If you are not mine experienced, I recommend not entering a mine, as there are too many dangers, especially if it is old and not maintained. The main danger isn't things living in them, but hidden dangers of rotted boards or rocks that are about to break off from the ceiling. Never enter a mine alone, and never enter without telling someone who can alert the authorities if you are late getting back in contact with them! Dogs and mines don't mix either, they don't see well, and there are too many places where they can fall.
Love the walks Trooper. I never miss one. Thanks.
Love the videos...my dad used to take us places like that to explore. we would take our dog with us when the dog had to diggin he would use four footie drive.😄
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing 😊
I love this video. Very interesting. Also, your dog is awesome. 😊
Thanks for taking us on your adventure.
You and your dog make a great team. Really enjoy your explorations together. ♡ from Pasadena
*Yes, but wait until the drone can transport then detach him and the dog cam can enter the caves.*
I've been searching so hard for a video of someone just walking in the remotest parts of deserts. My knees just can't handle it anymore or I would so move to desert. It's just so quiet.
Awesome, Boss Dog! Really pleased you mentioned the snake innoculation, cause the snake concern registered before you mention the shot. I would have been paranoid all through the video, would have been afraid to watch.
Love Dogs!
Happy Trails to You!
I appreciate that! We gotta take care of the pups!
With as many flippy's and whoop-dee-dos and spinners and roundabouts and overs and unders I think you shook that drones memory like an Etch A Sketch and cleared it LOL
*Etch A Sketch.

💯🤜🤛 Good looking out.

Holy s*it what king of FPV drone is that? I have a Mavic 2 Pro and it’s not going that fast. The sound at 18:50 is sick. Use a pad man, keep dirt and dust out of those motors.
DJI FPV, you think the dust will hurt it?
@@RemoteTrooper the motors have bearings, I’m not sure they are sealed (water can affect them so probably not). I use a pad with mine here in Arizona. Just a suggestion. What is the top speed on that thing? Mine tops out at about 45.
@@Hidden_Destinations On paper the max speed is 86 mph, now I want to test it lol. I'll likely bring a pad now, I appreciate that.
Looked like a desert owl.
Gonna have to look up the snake shot....never heard of it!
at 20:31 you can see a cave above the mine shaft. possibly several. love the drone footage and the video
Hey Buddy! This was a very relaxing video. Just hanging out with the dog. You would make a great
fighter pilot dude! Regards from Ody Slim
I love trippin around the desert. Vicariously w you
Wonderful footage! Smart dog. ‘Interesting to know drone height as you top hills that look like mountains to me. Thanks for sharing!!😊
Cool video, the first green bottle is a mountain dew and the second is boonesfarm
Strawberry Hill?
Downed quite a few of those in college 50+ years ago…..
When are you going to go back and explore that cave?
Probably never, I really really don't like going into caves lol
Those Esco items are removable teeth from either a trencher or a backhoe. It's to bad those old beer cans; the ones with the "church key" punctures don't have a label.
@Kevin Holland
Those tab top cans are probably from the mid 1960s or so, the church key cans of beer might be from the 1930s or 1940s!
@@watershed44 it's all they had in the 50s.lucky lager or Pabst blue ribbon
How many of my neighbors are flying over and spying on me with one of those drones. Not cool.
Great video
sorry for question , what drone ar you use ?!? can i have name of your drone model , thank you !!
I love that the dog stares at you
That bunny hop was impressive!
Very cool area and love the info on the snake shot.
It does NOT make your dog immune. It gives you another 20-30 minutes to get your dog to emergency. And they only last about 6 months.
Would love to have you come out to our mine sites near tonapah and Winnemucca
Now this sounds interesting for sure. Don't know if I'd be brave enough to enter but it still sounds kinda cool !
The buckets guy❤️
Very interesting 👌
The FPV drone looks like so much fun! Lol
Dude! The cave. We need to see what's inside! LOL. But seriously.🍻
That's the perfect place for those fast drone shots.
Those orange things were scroll type refrigeration compressors !
Your videos are great. I was interested in getting a drone, and I like your rig. What drone system are you using?
My Autrailian shepherd , Australian border collie mix, us to run thru the field like a deer like the hop he did it was beautiful and so was ha
Occasionally looks like the surface of Mars.
Cool drone footage
What Drone is that?
The red metal tank things are A/C Compressor housings.
I usually take trekking poles with me and tap the ground as I'm walking along.... I also stick them into sagebrush before walking by. I was bitten by a rattlesnake walking by a clump of sagebrush.... never saw it, never heard it..... initially thought I just was poked by the sagebrush... (it was dusk). Got back to my truck, and in the headlights could see the fang marks and blood at the puncture site. I was lucky though, it was a dry bite (something like 20% of bites are dry bites where no venom is injected). My dog also was bitten on the nose once by a rattlesnake as she was digging a hole to chase a ground squirrel. Five years later and the puncture marks are still visible!
Looked like teeth from an excavator or loader bucket.
The amount of trash always surprises me. M
That cactus you were talking about that was strange it's called a pencil cactus we got them here in Southern Arizona but not too many of them that's definitely desert Nevada style. That's pretty cool man that drone action too bad the battery only lasts about 4 seconds that's pretty bad and then the signal goes out they need to improve that a little bit so you can go to more places basically if that's not in line in sight it's adios I guess but man it's got a good picture really awesome good video bro real good video.
That is so awesome. What kind of drone is that? I love going out to places but since I’m in a wheelchair, I am very limited if there is no concrete where I can navigate around in my wheelchair and I thought about how fun it would be if I had one of these drones love your videos, man. Thanks for sharing.
The cave doesn't appear to be natural. Likely an exploratory mine, judging by the small waste rock piles and excavated face of the surrounding hillside...it was probably a lone prospector or a very small team that gave up after short work. But chances are, they would've poked around a few more spots close by so keep your eyes open.
Have you tried to hike Mt. Potosi where Carol Lombards plane crashed? Would be cool to see you take that drone up!
*Carole Lombard.
Wht drone is this ? I want one!
The little silver pot with a spout is an electric coffee pot. Looks like circa late 70s -80s.
I find rattlesnakes. Scorpions and black widows to be out and about at night in the desert. The desert comes alive at night.
I may have missed, what drone and eyewear is that?
DJI FPV kit
CPW cans California Powder works . Gunpowder used for blasting when they built the railroad .
What sort of drone were you using?
DJI FPV
Where is this outside of Las Vegas? I would like to go see if it’s a cave.
What’s the name of the tune playing at 1:47?
Thank you
It's been more than 40 years since I was in the Armagosa area...I would wander around the desert in that area and came across many empty and rusty black powder cans testimonial to the amount of mining activities in the past...Had to be careful when I was walking around out there because of the deep shafts that were sprinkled all over the desert...I don't recommend walking around out there after dark.... Don't want to fall into one of those pits...No fence or warning signs around them...💀☠️...
Looked like a bottle for Ripple red
@1:44 electric coffee pot percolator
I'm probably fortunate caves are uncommon around me. I would absolutely have to explore
What sort of Drone do you have with the goggles?
DJI FPV, it's a blast!
@@RemoteTrooper Thank you, love your content keep it up
what drone do you have please?
DJI FPV
What kind of camera are you using? Great footage!
Thanks! It's a Sony FDR-AX43 on a Weebill gimbal
@@RemoteTrooper
Great setup, for sure!👍
There's a guy still missing in that area, he got lost in a cave or something
I had never heard of a rattlesnake vaccine! Have you gotten one yourself?
I don't but I keep a satellite communicator with SOS function if I'm to far out there with a bite.
@@RemoteTrooper I don't think a vaccine would help me anyway, I'd die of pure horror if a rattlesnake bit me.
What type of Drone do you have
DJI FPV
Are you out by moapa?
👍👍👍👍
@14:20 those are freon compressors from air conditioning units. Scroll Compressors.
That dead bird was likely a poisoned owl. People nearby are probably using rodent bait stations which result in easy prey.
We discovered an owl dead right beneath the owl box and then a few weeks later the poor barn cat 😔😠
Properly secure your structures and use traps and maybe adopt feral cats 👍
At 4.44 that was the tooth of a front end loader or backhoe.
Your dog may have gotten a "snake shot" but there are sharp little cactus sprouts less than an inch tall all over the desert. Get your dog some plastic booties if you are going to run him out over the desert with you. If you don't believe me, try walking barefoot for 100 yards through the same area.The cactus sprouts are dark grey and almost invisible.
YES for snakes are deaf.
That hot out there. You and your dog. Needs a drink of water.
I like your video and your beautiful music 🎶 bilel from algeria 🇩🇿
Jet Provost?
A percolator
Have you visited the cave on foot? Would be nice to see what’s lurking inside😮
Sucks to see all the garbage there..
That was a tooth to an excavater bucket . Worth $30
I live in Las Vegas, I got a 4 x 4 let’s go to it and hike it and see if it’s actually a cave
