    I can't help think of the hopes and dreams of the miners who put so much effort into the prospecting, hauling in of supplies, and "digging" with most basic of tools and equipment, these mines, of which most of them paid back less than their cost...thanks for posting, just subscribed.

      This guy 'Super Billy Explores,' in Mexico, to me are much more creepy to watch. As well as mines these guys explore caves. The caves and mines seem to always look constricting. It never fails to give me the heebee-jeevees.

    "the upper level only went 25ft".. that 25ft. probably took them over 2 weeks maybe more to excavate.
    I absolutely LOVE what you do, especially as a 35 year old disabled person who hiked the P.C.T. in 2015. My heart fuels yours..

    That's wonderful how barren these areas are. Looks like an alien planet though. Good video. 👍

    Anything interesting in your searches along the Wasatch Front? I know that’s very north of your search area but it would be exciting to find something hidden away. I really enjoy your channel and look forward to the next!

    Ran into a skunk on the top most adit of that one. Pretty sweet little copper mine. Had current papers last time I was out. Was looking to explore the the couple way up on the hill side just down the way. Love it man!

    Malachite is copper ore. It is also used in as a stone jewelry.

    Great videos, thanks for sharing. How do you guys plan for snake encounters? It does not look like you wear gaiters or similar products. Clearly you are in areas where snakes would be common. What do you do if you get bit and are out in the middle of nowhere?

  • @sarahstrong7174

    Must have been so much sheer, brutal, hard, work digging out those tunnels & if you got sick or injured on the way you would be lucky if you even got some first aid. Maybe if you were very lucky you might get to see a good herbalist. Some were very good.

    Dude be careful out in them mines in the west desert. They can be very dangerous. If you find Susan Powell thought that would be cool.

    Why is it hot in the cave?

    • @lnbjr7
      @lnbjr7 7 місяців тому

      I suspect the mountain absorbs a heck of a lot of heat every day and over time that warms the mountain through and through.

    Be careful with all the rodent infested shafts. Hanta is bad.
