Abandoned & Forgotten Places
Documenting abandoned mines like never before!
Let's take abandoned mine exploring to the next level!
With your support you can help make this the best abandoned mine exploring channel on UA-cam!
Shot entirely in 4K! ...so, turn up those video settings!
On this channel we go deep... REALLY DEEP into abandoned mines and tunnels all throughout the western United States. We researched some of the harder to find mines and hiked or 4x4 back into them to explore and reveal their hidden secrets. Many of these remote locations are filled with cool artifacts, antiques and unique geology that will have you guessing as to why the old prospectors worked so hard to find gold, silver, and other minerals.
A&FP moves just a bit slower as compared to other mine exploring channels. Gly discusses why the miners chose these sites and he points out the geology and minerals that got them excited. Veins of quartz filled with gold and silver made many men lose sleep in the 1800’s and early 1900’s and modern prospecting still does to this very day.
DANGERS? Oh yes, there’s allot of dangers associated with old mines. Un-exploded dynamite, blasting caps, bad air, bats, spiders, and snakes all find their home in abandoned mine shafts and tunnels. Oh, and let’s not forget rotting timbers, flooded passages and collapsing rock!
Gly takes abandoned mine exploring seriously with all the proper safety equipment, training, and experience necessary to do this activity as safe as possible but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a bit of fun along the way. “Gly”, your host and his band of crazy characters “Old Bob” (Gly’s Jeep), “Quackers” (Gly’s duck) and “Bobbie” (Gly’s hula girl) are sure to brighten your day with their comments and silly antics. Heck, they may even give you a chuckle or two.
Just like Saturday morning cartoons before the internet was invented, Abandoned and Forgotten Places uploads each Saturday at 7:00AM PST. (that’s 10:00AM for you eastern folks) so don’t forget to click that subscribe button and bell icon to receive notifications of new episodes!
Please LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT! All these things help grow our channel and your financial support helps us find new locations and helps put fuel into “Old Bobs” tank. Old Bob, thanks you!
Ok, now for the ugly stuff...

Cool rattlesnake. I like how the two of you respect the local wildlife - way cool! Mr. Snake thanks you too. Thanks to Laura and Gly for another excellent mine tour.
Thanks for letting the snake live. Every place has its things every thing has its place.
If only everyone would respect the wildlife and the old mines the way you do life would be better. Thanks Laura and Gly.
You truly have one of the best channels out there.
I can only say what I always say--more, please😂 enjoyed seeing the whole show. Thanks!
Mr. Slithers is a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake. Not sure where you are in this one, but Arizona has WDRs AND the Mojave Green as well which has a particularly nasty venom. Keep your eyeballs peeled! Lolin'!
Like how you included the butt scratch at the opening 😂
That was a good RATTLESNAKE and thank you for not killing it, I love all Snakes,
Ooh Gly these Wednesday Mines starting to be fun !!! Glad you Both didn't step in any old kitty a doo doo!!
The every reluctant, camera shy, Joe Blake. Couple that, with a good explore, and you've got " skat on a stick"🐍🤠
Hey Gly and Laura I love all of your videos. It`s really great that you are puting out a video on wendesday`s now , that`s twice the fun a week now yay!🙂 You two make a great team and I can`t wait for the next adventure!!!
Thank you both very much, nice mine.
Great job Gly and Laura ... Particularly the seam @10:15 in a Welsh coal mine it was known as the "Crank seam" 18" high and dug by a miner lying flat out on his side!! Hard job
I loved the old intro being back...THAT was AWESOME!!!
Fantastic mine exploration, plus we always love the geology, nature, history, and more - great job, Gly and Laura!
A cool project for Mine Operator. Looks like some real ore here. Love the scat and rattler.
This is just reiterating everyone's sentiment. You two make a great team! Awesome find Laura! We all envy you Laura, You have found a great find ... Gly. :-)
great as always , watch out for those darn snakes
Great mine! Can’t wait for Saturday!
When I said there was a snake in your boot last video, I was KIDDING! Pretty snake, very interesting mine. Must be some extensive workings above to build that much exterior support structure. Keep that upper entrance in your back pocket for later.
EXCELLENT time with you today. Thanx guys 💋🤍💋🤍💋
You guys are in a fantastic mood today, Glad to see it. I enjoyed this adventure. Keep up the great work. Be safe.
Awesome ! Nope rope was cool ! Haven’t seen one of those in a long time ! Can’t wait till next Wednesday’s! Be safe out there ! 🙂👍🏼
Thanks for another cool adventure and for respecting Mr snake. So many people don't seem to understand that they do good for the environment and have more right to be there than we do as humans. It's their home. We have ours. There's room for all. Take care and be safe
Good job Laura 👏👏👏 your a winner 🏆 😎👍
Hi Gly and Laura.... Brilliant mine it's the sort of mine you want to see so much work timber. Thanks again for the effort. Paul
The stall work is so beautiful in this mine❤
Sounded like you were very cautious going in with your hand on your hip I bet. 😂👍👍🇨🇦
What an intriguing mine area . Laura a fantastic find. Whatever Gly asks for Laura has granted him in this video 😊😂. Thank you both for the walk in time. And Mr . Snithers of course.
Great stuff Guy… as usual !
And Laura !
You both really hiked a long way to get to that one.
Great mine! I would love to crush up and pan some samples from that mine!
Interesting mine and wild life , love your work . Australia watching .
Most of em got called off to war is why allot of mines we're not cleaned out as good as normally would. Thanks for video
The rattleworm was a cool find and hopefully you didn’t get any kitty poo on your shoes. Terrific find there Laura. So glad you’re doing your old style videos again. I really enjoyed your older style but I like the new style too. I like seeing the drone footage and getting a birdseye look at the areas. Keep up the great work and be careful with the putty tats
Thoroughly enjoy all your content.Been watching for quite some time now
Thanks for the explore to both of you 👍
Stay safe
Great find Laura! This has been a fun adventure. I was biting my nails (not really) waiting for glowing eyes. You don’t want to see a cat because you’re on the menu.
Fantastic find
Gly it may be time for a new pair of boots looks like you had a blow out comming down the ladder😅
Rattlesnakes are attracted to body heat so watch out if you're sitting around or in a tent. I've had one snuggle up to my tent in the morning. 🐍
10:35 holy Schmidt, that's an old can :)
What a good mine - best one I think. Thank you.
Very interesting mine,always wonder if your see a cat worrying as always great video cheers guys x❤
What a nice little find and no calling cards! So where did these mine words come from? We know from usage What they are but stull, stope and winze don't sound like English. Do you know the origin?
Making a craft loaf of bread in a dutch oven and going deep. Thank you for all you do.
Gly, if there were explorers tagging the mine back in 1959, does that mean this mine closed down sometime in the 40s?
Just maybe the ore shoot got burned. Cause the ore shooting down. That's so fast. The friction made it burn...... Ha ha
What kinda oxygen detector do y’all use?
One of the first times i have seen you encounter a rattlesnake
Western Diamond Backs are pretty chill actually. I don't know if that is because they have some neurotoxins in addition to hemotoxins that most rattlers have? It is also true that a large number of people are familiar with the pacific northwest rattle snake, which are aggressive assholes. Compared to those, most desert rattlers are just super calm.
Thanks for the Wednesday explore video. Maybe you should have taken your rock hammer and got a few samples of that vein yourself.
You should put some bags of gold ore up for sale on your website.
Hi gly am a ways behind your content because of work have you ever encountered a mountain lion just keep yourself safe and Laura
Gotta love digging at the ole roids on the intro. Very attractive.
What drone do you use it takes great footage
Meant to ask before but forgot
I don't think the internet is ready for a M.Jackson impersonation from Gly
This must be the “ I -lean” mine ….. judging by that portal entrance anyway . And one thing I’d like to add about most ( not ALL., but most ….) rattlers I’ve ever met , is they are generally more aware of you , than you are aware of them . The more gentlemanly ones will give you your space if you respect theirs , and go about their merry way like yours did here . But if you startle one or poke your hand into an unwise opening somewhere somehow sometime you most certainly can get them riled up . If one does rattle , give them space , and make certain you look all around for any quiet company. Bites out in the middle of nowhere can be fatal , especially in heat and stressful conditions ( because the heart is already maximizing blood flow for body cooling , oxygen saturation,etc.) And the venom travels that much quicker than normal through your system . I know most doctors frown on tourniquets to slow blood flow from the bite area to rest of body , but it sure can’t hurt if done correctly to limit flow into vital organs . Stay safe Gly & Laura . C-ya 😎👍
Nice find Laura!!! Questions: will that drill steel cause a widow maker hazard? What type of rock is the vein in?
Ya otta show all of us what the tracks of Mr, slithers look like
Do the colors of the spray paint mean anything?
Saying in my best old prospector voice, "You found yourself a nice Sidewinder there." Yeah he looks like he was on a mission and wasn't worried about you two. In the mine you were having some Cat Skat Fever in the mine. Yeah I wouldn't have been surprised if you saw 2 eyes looking back at you as you panned up into that stoped out area. Yes we or I do dig the Wednesday videos, but then again I like all of them. More Gly and Laura the merrier. Also like the Monday Deep Shaft video's.
There's plenty of gold still in there, the question is just how much effort it would take to get it.
There's that incline stope yall can set anchors as you go
Schlitz, Schaefer and Schiff..
Out from under the rock that you were sitting on!!!!Yikes! While you were first "intro-ing", the snake kept moving to under a low bush. Me? I'd say, "get me outta here!". ha,ha. Do you still put down your "yellow signal flag" before you two enter adets? Re: scat, big cat, (you say), well they don't sleep by where their "poop area" is. Sure glad that you didn't run into that while you were documenting. Good explore; thanks.
Those were joint bars. Generally made out of flat bar and used for lighter rail. Larger ones are commonly called angle bars and are rolled like rail, beams, etc.
You guys make it sound like the '70's are sooo far back.
What kind of fool sets up a mine on fire 🔥? A pyro fool?
Many burned out areas in mines were accidental. Mine fires happened all the time. In my 45 years of mine exploration, I have found that when some punk-ass arsonist is trying to get his jollies, there is evidence left behind. An example is a mine in the Goodsprings Mountains where there is a burned out raise. At the bottom, there is a gas can and other left-over accelerants. Usually, there is evidence of a deliberately set fire. In another mine near Barstow, there were nice square sets that when I went back some twenty years later, were burned. You could see on the floor of the mine where the fire had started. Some A-hole had placed a bunch of wood next to the timbering and lit it on fire. A bunch of used matches were lying around. Same thing happened to the largest wooden head-frame out towards Red Mountain a few years ago. At least they caught that jerk. It was a historic landmark too. As far as I am concerned, arsonists should be tied to a stake to enjoy their own creation. Beautiful snattlerake. Ain't seen a Western Diamondback in a long time. Last interesting critter I saw in the desert was a large tortoise. Gave it a wide berth.
Hopefully you brought your sidearm for protection.
Does anyone know whether or not rattlesnakes are considered a delicacy by large cats 🤔???
Who are the people or the organization that puts up the barbed wire and signage in front of these mines?
BLM
Guess it was a bit too hot for mr slither too rattle.
Rattlers are docile creatures by nature. Leave them alone, and they will leave you alone. I live in the desert and laugh when winter visitors come out to hike and have to mess with the snakes. I have no symphony for those injured by these beautiful creatures of nature.
I work at a prison complex in Arizona in the middle of the desert. Bored inmates risk all kinds of things messing with the wildlife, but especially the rattlers.
A hell nah, I ain't going near the snake. But cool to see a rattlesnake. Hopefully, you don't encounter a mountain lion, like what happened at the Sasquatch mine
Well I would like to mention that ever since you released your first video I have been following you religiously and I am astonished at how you keep producing content and new explores I would think you have to be running out of mines I live in the northeast Ohio are mines are nasty unsafe coal shale mines
Thought this was a old one, my surprise. On to bigger and new things. Cool mine, not so much inside structure like some of your past videos.
i was out riding atv's on a mountain in utah and my 4 year old son almost stepped on a rattler as big as my wrist. that would have been a bad deal....
Grab some ore samples and show us some close ups!
😎 👍
I just don't get some peoples mentality, why set fire to an Ore Shute? It's simply mindless!
Gly... do you carry a gun?
I would!
and im back
personally i find the wed episodes to be much better, the "360°" episodes i find to be really annoying (how much work would it be to edit a forward facing version of the saterday show to release on monday (or maybe just a helmet cam with your audio synced over it (or laura cam, helmet cam view from laura's perspective, more video = more money 😁))), i know there are other channels i could watch that have normal video style, and i do watch a few caving channels, but none of the other mine channels are as goofy, weird and entertaining as you are 🤣
I so do agree with you.
