Watching this in 2019 like damn it!
It's gone.... 😥
according to All Trails, it's still there... .I'm heading there today
@@june_bot What did you find after all?
MrThree1zero fuel tank was there, random chimney by the river, and the home. However the house is boarded up. Stable is gone. Still a cool trail to explore. I posted pic on my instagram: june_bot
Right!?
Went yesterday 1/15/2020 like Miguel June said , everything he saw is still there . Was really hoping to see the stable tho :(
Kinda cool........LOVE the front gate....I really hope they saved it and just didn't toss it in a dumpster
It is truly amazing how disrespectful Americans are and how successful they are at destroying things. From abandoned ranches to any public transit system the creep of squalor is amazing. You guys I would not include as disrespectful. So this wasn’t pointing at you. Thanks for the videos.
Just found your channel. You guys are very, very good.
It’s obvious that a lot of work went into this video.
The book, Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon -David McGowan, brought me to you guys. As Rustic Canyon is very close to The Spahn Movie Ranch.
Even though it’s now 2020 & the structure is long gone, it’s still fascinating to see what McGowan was describing in his book. So, thank you for your video. It’s very interesting
Thank you for watching! That definitely sounds like a book we'll have to check out. :)
I'm glad you guys look normal, another group looked like the rejected suicide squad wannabes. Yours has style.
Never understood the compulsion people have to mess up everything with graffiti. IMHO one of the worst characteristics of the human race.
Whats your fake video game name again?
worst in the US by far. Having to fly for work over 43 years got to see our country. Also the most with the homeless and illegals................
Sorry to tell you this, but I don't play video games.
By people who never had a checking account. They can't sign a check with a spray can.
@@MegaBait1616Seriously all those illegals that crossed the Atlantic need to gtfo .
My wife and I did this hike several times back in the 90s. Sad to hear that it has been demolished... especially the ornate gateway. Glad you guys got some footage of it before it was gone!
I'm reading: "Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon" and it mentioned this place when it talked about Charles Manson. So I search youtube and found this video.
It's a good read too by the way.
Just reading that book right now !
@@mattigrooves7843 A lot of the names in the book can be overwhelming. Next, I'm going to pick up "Programmed to Kill".
Doug0101 indeed, it’s quite obliterating at times. Doug, I don’t always know what to make of it. Plus, his cynical side can get a bit exasperating at times, dint you think ?
Doug0101 Programmed To Kill, what’s that, Doug ?
@@mattigrooves7843 "Programmed to Kill" is David McGowan's book previous to "Weird Scenes In Laurel Canyon". It explores the CIA's Mk Ultra program. You'll see him mention it a few times as you read further.
Nice job, but you guys should make a longer videos like 15 to 20 minutes.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just stumbled upon you two and I’m really enjoying the content you’re sharing! I have no doubt, if you keep this up you’ll be getting your gold play button soon!! Wishing you two nothing, but the best!! Cheers and Godspeed...
Your videos are so professional and informative! I wouldn't be surprised to see you on Discovery Channel!!!
Exactly I❤👻
I hiked out yesterday. The front gate is gone, the barn is gone and the machine house is boarded up. When I first went to this place over 10 years ago there was an old bomb shelter as well (that's now gone too). Still fun to explore. You can take the stone steps all the way down, still see the water tower, the machine room, and the gardens. There's also another burnt out structure nearby with an old chimney and bath and a wrecked out truck on the connecting fire road.
Since the pandemic, I have been passing time watching a lot of UA-cam videos, with WW 2 videos being among my favorites, including Hitler's home movies taken by Eva Braun at Berchtesgaden, the horrors of Stalin, etc. So this one was an unexpected treat. Nazis! Also, I believe that some of the music for this video is the same as that used for the series Criminally Listed. Pardon me as I continue to go stir-crazy.
Me too
Did you just call roundabout a "traffic circle"?
Looks like a Manson family hide out😀
I really love this episode. It's mysterious, thought-provoking, and FUN. What an interesting place, and the history is amazing. I am so glad that Oddity Odysseys did a segment on Murphy's Ranch. I feel like I learning some important information here and was entertained at the same time. Bravo! Keep 'em coming!
+BrillBlonde Thank you for your encouragement! We've heard lots of positive feedback from hikers who appreciated the tidbit of information about the demolition. Hopefully what we show you next will be intact for a long time. :)
Great job guys! I liked it a lot! Hope to see more and more!
+Exploring With Steve Thank you! That means a lot coming from a seasoned explorer such as yourself. We have two episodes left this season, but we're definitely working on breaking new ground for season two. Have a great week :)
Good stuff, super informative - thank you!
+Jeremy Favis Thank you for taking the time to comment! We appreciate it :)
Great to watch this again. What did they put in the place of this? Return visit maybe.
I had heard of this place a few years ago but you 2 seemed to have a better history on it
Is it destroyed Rn ? In 2017 does anyone know ?
no
Ok, I'm home at 8pm waiting for this weeks video!!!
Thank you for sharing a piece of history before it's destroyed
I was lucky enough to visit the ranch before they tore it down
Heading here today. Hopefully some of the stuff is still there
The barn is collapsed now
This was my favorite hike in LA... it's crazy how much history is behind it, yet so few people knew it was even there... Such a disappointment that they had to tear down such a great part of the past. I never got to go into the barn so I'm glad I got to see it through this video
+Tim Gilmour I'm glad we were able to share the barn with you. We really thought they'd at least preserve the main gate. Everything else we're about to show you in the coming weeks is still standing so stay tuned and thank you for watching!
Just went today theyre still standing
Love it guys....Then think of the McCarthy Witch Hunt that went on out there..All the blacklisted "Reds".....Disney...J Edgar.....Oh the humanity!!!!!!
Taggers are garbage they ruin everything :/
I can’t believe it’s been 6years
Through my lens brought me here
is everything destroyed now? i want to visit this summer. i need to know lol
no, this place is still up
Awesome video! You guys got some great shots. I think it's partially still standing. You can do a 5ish mile hike starting on Inspiration Loop in Will Rogers, go onto Backbone Trail which takes you into Topanga State Park and then connect to Murphy Ranch to end the hike!
Is the main gate still there
Hey! I went here today and like some have said, the power house is still intact but boarded up. Sadly, the barn has fallen into utter ruin. It's no longer a building, just a pile of wood and rubble.
Good video, I travel throughout the US photographing these locations. I'd like to join u guys on some adventures. I am based out of Vegas
+Cryptid Hunter Thanks for watching! We're discussing branching out of CA for season 2, so if we're in your area that would be a great team effort! And if you're ever out here, let us know at oddityodysseys@gmail.com Have a great weekend :)
OK thats it, Im moving to California and opening up a spray paint store, may even rent out ladders and scaffolding !!
You're super hot topic by your self need less your utbe utube postings of "what u don't know history" of our local Californians more historical picture young lady is very informative need a 3ed camera to in prove footage
Found your channel this morning and am really enjoying your productions. You two play off each other very well and you've obviously done your homework prior to your trips as the narration is very well done. I enjoy going places and seeing things with a bit of interesting back story. Where possible, I like to recreate historic photos for my own enjoyment to create a 'then and now' experience. Thanks so much for sharing your hobby, passion etc. for exploring with the rest of us.
I was there on Saturday before they torn it up...
Leann McElhaney torn it down?
Subscriber 29,055. Keep up the good work.
Even with the Nazi connection, I can't say I'm sad to hear the place was being demolished.
I went last Saturday and some of the buildings are gone and you can’t even go inside of the house anymore. The city did destroy most of it.
Still there in 2022.
Another good episode and well done! Love the bloopers too.
+Janet Gasman Thank you!
I love your videos I just wish your videos were longer than what they are now because about the time we really get into the video it's over needs to be longer. Keep up the good work.
Would still love the show even if she wasn't so cute and he wasn't so corny lol great show!
lol "7th annual empty water tank festival" XD
I wonder if there are old videos to show what It looked like.. just curious
Very informative video. I bike up there all the time.
Great video. Very interesting!!!
+Sandra Mello Thank you for watching!
Is it gone now?
i won't have to waste my time doing this hike. thanks!
Just found your channel, love it! Subbed.....
Hey great episode, I wrote the story about the demolition a while back in January under "Murphy Ranch Demolition Date". Glad you got the chance to visit, there are still unknown buildings you haven't checked out deeper in Rustic Canyon, I have an article on my site if you are interested. Good luck.
Quit a few structures are still up right? The City did not demolish all the structures. Most just boarded up, and even heard the horse stable is still up as of summer of 2017.
Keep up the awesome work! Love the videos.
I just came across your channel through an article by press enterprise.
Love from Hemet
+Mahoney D Awesome!!! Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed :)
coffee in that big cup, most of what you are drinking is milk and sugar water .. americans are strange when it comes to coffee., they flavour it with allsorts of crap , add large amounts of sugar.. its like they are kids and mommy is giving them their first coffee, with the least amount of
actual coffee and the rest fat. i dont think they actually like coffee.
Colonel Mustard Because on tv what you see is most Americans drinking coffee with copious amounts of sugar & cream makes it true?? Idiot
2016?
I find your thing quite interesting...
69
Simply loven It thanks
Casale is pronounced- Ca-sa-lee.
20,000 gallons of fuel...Boomba!
It’s all still there smh half of the barn is collapsed though and the main house is boarded it so you can go inside anymore
We filmed this episode over two years ago. We did do an update video later on explaining it's current condition. Certainly lucked out that we went when we did!
Me to MrThree1zero its 2019
Fascinating!!!!!
+TSue McMahon So much history, so little time :) Thanks for watching!
I appreciate the hard work you guys put into these episodes. Thank you!
We certainly appreciate you watching! :)
You should really look up the LA city and county knife laws before a cop with nothing better to do ruins your day. Cool video.
Love your show 👍
Is it still there?
Herr Schmitt is the German equivalent to Mr. Smith in English.
Buildings are still there
Quit a few of the buildings are boarded up, correct? The City did not demolish most of the building, is that your saw?
Well done
Well done!
6:24 :)
Nice vid.
love all the so called explorers milling around acting like its all very brave while mommys SUV parked up top only 10 minutes away
I’ve always like learning about nazi’s
As of 05/28/2018 the powerhouse is still there but you can not go inside it is sealed with metal boards. I could not find the water facility or the barn. Lots of stairs.. This is what tired me out so I really couldn't explore like how I wanted too. There were some folks trying to find it also. Not that demolition could not be done ... it would also be very difficult because of the location. The stairs are super steep with vegetation overgrown on them. This is a regular hiking path and most people don't even know why the building are there. The place is heavily tagged and there are hundreds of spray cans and water bottles everywhere. That place is going to stay there in legal limbo since the city of LA doesn't really have the funding to demolish anything to give the land to Topanga Canyon Park.
