    I love tuning in to such stories. People tend to think about finding the mine over finding the canyon the mine is in first. Nowadays we don’t live in a time period that needs constant trips at eye level in a massive place, we can do this from satellite surveying to see what eye level can not. Even hidden canyons. Find the correct canyon and then you can find the mine. It’s on an old government trail that has been abandoned, used by military during Indian War. After this war, nobody used this trail anymore and it’s covered in dense brush. Thus even in Waltz time he even called it the Old government trail.

      It's never gonna be over! It's not about a virus! You get sick, OH NO, shut the world down! Aaahhhh! You're not going to die from it! You have to be tested to even know if you have it or not! Wtf is wrong with everyone! When did it become ok to take everyone's rights away so they dont get sick?! The only deaths are from severely old people with immunity problems! Usually the FORCED isolation of these folks that kill them! Even with every SINGLE death counted as a covid death you still have a 98% chance of surviving! The only reason you are scared and believe ANYTHING you believe is because you cant turn your tv OFF! Turn it off! I guarantee you you wont see any pandemic ANYWHERE else! The fake, plastic, people, you, and the rest of the world , seem to believe without question, dont give a shit about your safety or well being! How naive can one be? When has the government really given a shit about you? Look up flu numbers! Look up tuberculosis numbers! Hell any damn one! Makes covid laughable! Everyone seems to forget WHO was charged in supreme court for falsely claiming the swine flu was a pandemic! Turns out that was just a big scam for more rich people to get richer! Its ALWAYS been about the money! What makes ignorant people think itts any different this time? ! Politicians are fake! Reporters dont actually report! Youd think people so concerned about a virus would actually know what they're! Wear your mask, stand 6 ft apart. 🤣 it's disgusting how truly ignorant and stupid people have become! Smdh

    Good job Hank! Great tale! No disrespect bro...the phrase is "finer than frog hair". I use it a lot. Just helping. I have a question that been bugging me. I did studies on Geronimo which instructed me the Goyatkla was from the Bedonkohe Apache. I've never heard this referenced in any modern account. Was told this was a small offshoot band made of 3 or 4 related families. Any light you guys could shed on this would be greatly appreciated. Please keep doing what you do. Lvya. D

    • @mikehunt8375
      @mikehunt8375 3 роки тому

      Our owners would never advise that! You kidding me. Real history? That's not taught in schools! Hell, spelling and reading ismt even taught anymore. Besides that, schools wont open back up again! Libraries wont either. As for old folks? Sorry, they need to live their last years alone and die of loneliness because they might catch a "viris" and die that way. People are so completely ignorant and clueless to actually think they will ever have any simple rights back! People have grown spineless and tv programmed to even realize it! They just sit down nod in agreement and then go force their bs on others! All the while patting themselves on the back like they're actually good people! Oh no! You might get sick! Better never come out again and definitely if you see others call your slave owners on them! If we truly are a free people then shouldn't we have the choice to get sick or die from starvation and poverty? I for one dont give a fuck about a virus, first, because I dont own a tv so I haven't even seen said virus, second, I'm actually healthy and stay active! Staying healthy and active you have a 99.9% chance of surviving! So why aren't your benevolent rulers mentioning anything about that? Instead you're told every thing but mega corporations have to shut down, cause viruses dont like it there, wear a mask, and stand 6 ft a part. If that truly makes ANY sense to you then you've been watching to much tv and dont even understand what a virus is or how its transferred! Youd think people who were so scared of something they'd actually learn what it is! Nope, the fake , plastic, people on tv are good enough for every one!

      Many of the open pit mines in the area were covered over a metal plate and only a few feet of dirt was required to fill over it. The original mine filled with water and was used to water cattle for many years. After the Forest Services stopped issuing grazing permits. They sealed the mine as described.
