Storytime: The Discovery of Oregon Caves National Monument
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 жов 2024
- This video shows the Oregon Caves National Monument. I go a slightly different route in presentation this time. Instead of information, the video will tell the story of Elijah Davidson, who discovered the caves on a hunting trip. One difficulty I had was that tripods and lights are not allowed. Having a stable camera is key in dark locations so I did the best I could with the situation. The employees of the monument give a great tour and lots of information when you visit. They tell you the story of Elijah Davidson so I thought I would do the same. I hope you enjoy the story and views of the cave.

Wow! Awesome story and gorgeous views! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Marty!
Fascinating cave, but spooky! Thanks for the story, Matt Cook.
Thank you. This one is especially not scary in my opinion because of all the man made equipment. Lights, doors, walkways, steps, etc.
Awesome job Matt!!! Those rock formations were so cool looking!!!! I really enjoyed watching thanks! ... You for sure have an act for story telling!!!! 👍😃👍
Thank you! I will have to think of more stories to tell. Rocks were way different than my last cave video. Formed more by water than lava.
There's rock and various minerals a cave may add.
Which our species may admire as beauty or being
somehow unique. If my reader is laid under calcite
saturated cave ceiling drip your bones will become
bonded to the cave interior. Under a crystal shroud.
Hard and translucent for future ages. Until our sun
expands as a red giant and uses flame to swallow
our planet. Unless your tomb went elsewhere
first to remember long extinct primitives said to be
"Human".
Been there a few times last time was 11 or so years ago. Another great video
I think I went 15-20 years ago but don't remember it at all. Does it look like you remember it? Have humans ruined it?
Love the story telling time... very nice video, thanks!
Thank you!
I've got so much Oregon left to explore!! Thanks for adding to my list, it's getting bigger.....
Any time. I am still finding new things as I go. I don't think it ever ends.
Well done Matt. Great views of the cave and a well told story of how Elijah discovered these wonderful caves. Thanks for sharing. Hope you are having a great weekend.
Thanks Dave! I got to explore some gold mines this weekend. They were flooded but was cool to see the opening anyways.
I started feeling claustrophobic after his last match went out...what a story! Thanks!
Glad you felt like you were there. This part of the cave was super open. There is another section you can do where you have to crawl.
Hi Matt! Another fantastic video. I had a chance to watch that website your talking about and that is so cool climbing the North sister you guys is an amazing couple. Love it ! now I have a chance to watch it and see the hidden gems of Oregon. Thanks.
Absolutely! Thanks for checking it out. I hope you can visit any of these places and make a fun video. Please let me know when you do.
@@MattCookOregon If we do that would be summer time 😁
wow this is looks amazing inside the caves and the firecamp too.
Absolutely. Thank you. Would you go inside?
I loved this story, great filming under difficult circumstances and a really wonderful narration of Elijah's story. I'm so glad to hear that Bruno also made it out alive. Awesome video my friend. ❤
Thanks so much Arielle! It was very difficult as tripods are not allowed in the cave!
This was a really good video. I truly enjoyed it.
First comment! You win a brand new car! Thanks. I really appreciate it dude.
Fantastic film, a gripping tale enhanced by progressing through the cave itself as the story unfolded. I thought the photos and videos looked quite good under the circumstances. Very nice work as usual.
Thanks dude. Was fun to try something different with the voiceover. I was so bummed when I walked in with all my gear and they say no tripods hahaha.
That was awesome!
Speechless
Thank you Dirk! This was fun. Much easier also without having to research facts hahaha
Great video Matt! Love the history and combined images / video! :)
Thank you! I just wish I had a tripod to make them all really good.
Amazing story thank you for this knowledge shared and taught.
Thanks Jason. Everybody has to visit this one. There is also a 2nd cave where you get guided through a crawl, could be scary for some.
@@MattCookOregon I havent been I will make sure my next time I am in Oregon
ayan ayan great adventure going inside the cave and the history of that place is nice too
ayan ayan! Thank you.
Awesome production and story!
Thanks man. I have really been enjoyed your bigfoot content but there is just too much for me to keep up with at the moment.
What a treat of a video. Very informative and nice to see inside of what looks like a amazing cave. Good work Matt.
Thank you! Was a bit of a challenge with no lights or tripods allowed. Did what I could with what I had haha.
@@MattCookOregon Ha the strict rule of cave club. You did good though
Wowww I'm loving Oregon. Thank you, my friend!
Thank you! Oregon is pretty much the only thing I cover so please enjoy
Nice production Matt very professional😁
Funny how I let this footage sit and didn't think I was going to use it at all. Thanks for the encouragement.
Matt.Cook.Oregon yeah man you got mad editing skills thanks for sharing!
@@pnwadventuresandgearreview8749 I have a plan to edit a video on livestream. Stay tuned.
I takes a bit of navigating to get to this kind of videos on youtube, but I'm glad I did. Enjoyed the story and the images. Happy to have learnt something new. Subscribed.
Thanks so much! You can find me right between the makeup tutorials and cringe compilations!
@@MattCookOregon I was actually looking for a makeup tutorial, but my hand slipped.
@@transylvaniaoutdoors4218 Just wait til you see my fortnite dance video come out.
@@MattCookOregon To be honest, I don't even know what that means.
@@transylvaniaoutdoors4218 bad joke haha
Wonderful story... 👍... exceptionally well done!
Thanks for binge watching some videos dude!
that was cool ... so many things for my list !!! thank you !
Thanks Michelle. This channel should help a list, exploring Oregon is all we do.
I really enjoyed this video. I’m a history geek anyway, and this brought the story to life. Thanks for creating this video!
Thank you. I enjoy history as well. Doing the research makes videos take so long. Fun but tough to do on youtube.
I enjoyed your video and how you tied the story to the video you were able to shoot. Did you compile the story from multiple sources? Might be good to add that to the comments.
Good idea! Yeah so this is the story that the rangers tell when you tour the cave. I don't like filming people so I told the story in my own words.
@@MattCookOregon Pretty cool. I have claustrophobia, so there won't be any way I will be in that cave. Watching it from my computer was much safer for me. lol
Cool story bro. :) and a nice cave!
Thank you! One of the many places we all can't wait to open back up after all this bullshit.
Nice to know the human history of the caves.
I like the story telling aspect. Usually caves are a geological story.
I remember going here about 20 years ago when I lived in southern Oregon I need to make a return trip but I don't know if you knew but the Oregon Caves Chateau is known to be haunted! Great videos Matt keep it up!
Thanks Tim. I almost didn't make this video. I was a little disappointed that they didn't allow lights, tripods, and made us stick with the tour guide. Found the footage half a year later and decided to upload. Haunted? Not sure if I heard that one. I have been wanting to make a spooky video for awhile now.
@@MattCookOregon Yes its said to be haunted by the ghost of Elizabeth who died there back in the 1930s but currently the Chateau has been closed since October 2018 for major renovations until next year but I did just come back from a trip to Sahalie and Koosah falls those are 2 beautiful waterfalls especially Sahalie I'll have the video uploaded in the next few hours!
Before my group tour walked underground
our guide asked me to step up front. Saying
my helmet decal denoted me as a member
of organized cave exploration and that the
Oregon Caves staffing were honored by my
presence. I thanked my speaker and said
I'd be the last to follow everybody else, be
silent to hear every word said by our guide,
and my lamp light would only scan the cave
extent behind our walking party, "Personal
interests", I said, which earned me a smile.
Right on. What group? The experience is a bit touristy to an expert for sure. But it is such a cool cave.
Parents moved to cave junction in 98,I finally made it up The long road caves highway and suggest anyone in the area should go.
It's nice. I haven't tried the hikes outside the cave. They could be worth checking out.
Loved it !!!
Thank you! I would like to go back and do other parts of this part. There is a crawl through the cave you can do, that would be a fun video.
very nice place and very good video keep it up bro
Thanks a bunch
How did Bruno get injured? Was it because of the bear?
As far as I could tell, no one knows. Probably the bear. Versions of the story mentioned the dog had cuts.
GREAT VIDEO (despite a few glitches) :)
Little men have small problems.
sorry i offended u by correcting you
You took the time to write it. It is your problem, not mine.
Where are these caves located
Southwest Oregon. Can't miss em.
@@MattCookOregon ok I’ll just put southwest Oregon in the gps I’m sure it will take me right there lol
@@MattCookOregon so cave junction
@@earthangel428 What do I look like your personal travel agent? 🤣
Dogs are the worst.
and the best.
I love dogs, but man do they stress me out sometimes. We thought we were going to loose ours. a while back and had to weigh the cost of it.
With the kids its like sure ill spend what ever it takes to make you better, but with a dog, there is a limit.
Great video, Id love to check it out.
Thank you. Funny to be talking about dogs in one of my only videos without my dog. But yeah the story. That's rough to have to be in a tough decision over a dogs health like that.
I've also been there 4 a few times 2 I've been down 2 the very bottom which there say is haunted and about one mile below the earth and they had me tell the story 2 other ppl
Very cool. Haunted? I wanted to do the crawling tour but it wasn't an option at the time.
Elijah goes into a cave until his matches are all gone and he finds himself in complete darkness. I hope this story isn't true. People can't really be that stupid. Can they?
Elijah was Einstein level compared to the news I read lately!
first white man to "discover" cave
Please contact the park service about this. I am just telling the story they tell.
What would have been more interesting would be to tell the story from a native American perspective. A white man acting like he was the first human to see this.🙄
Bummer. I worked hard on this...
Amazing film sir.
Thank you!
