    Thank you for not adding music in the background. I like hearing your feet crunching on the path.

    i spent much of my life in the State of Idaho and Oregon exploring old mines, abandoned ranches and just following old roads to see where the ended up. much like you do. I love to visit these types of places where I imagine what the people looked like, what they accomplished and marveled at the determination of these industrious people. I wonder why they left and where they went. iy life was much like yours except I had no way to document my experiences other than handwriting which I often didn't take the time to do so.

    I wish you would show different parts of the walls & ceilings slowly every now & then. There were so many right angles and things that looked like bricks. But thanks so much for this! Very awesome stuff to see! Hope you have some more Nevada videos I can watch!

    It's astounding to me these mines were most likely dug with a pick and shovel. Who were these miners? Where were they from? Where did they go? Did they really make enough money to survive as miners? A thousand questions that will never be answered. Thanks for allowing us to live these dreams through you.

    After Gly, of Abandoned & Forgotten Places spoke of you, I had to check out your ventures.These adets seemed to be a layering of mud and sediment. Seen some Chert on the walls of the last adet you were in. I wonder what the miners were going for. The fossils that you pointed out denote that this area was under water some 1,000 of yrs. ago. I did not see any quartz vein on the back of the adet, onless the miners cleaned it out as they went in. You never showed the face to show what mineral may have peetered out. Your "explore" was interesting. Thank you for documenting it and taking us along.

    Good video, looks like it was hard to hold a roof in that area, rock is too loose, but good explanation. Be safe

    All these people in the comments asking him to talk more, go do your own thing the way you want. Personally I like it this way. There's plenty others out there who ramble aimlessly. This is like I'm there.

    Nice video, looks pretty tough to get to some of these mines. Thanks for sharing! Do you ever worry about the air quality in the deeper or longer mines?

  • @waltermorris5786
    @waltermorris5786 Рік тому

    In most mines, the tunnel is literally following the ore vein.. If the vein curves to the right, so does the tunnel. Finally all ore veins Peter out. However, there might be several veins which emerge from a main vein.

    What do you think happened to the M-cave guy that explored the same territory in NV and had a very similar channel until his disappearance? He was very experienced like you and just gone one day without a trace.

    Probable makes sense to bring wire snips and wire or pliers to clip it and fix after with a crimp or wire wrap just don’t cut in the middle only @ ends you can mend with coat hanger make loops @ ends of the barb that you clip and run a coat hanger clipping through to mend it 😅😅😅

    Great explore and looks like good solid rock and almost no timber .As you where walking out it almost sounded like a steam train going upgrade in the loose gravel .Any way this was a great discovery and ⛏️🏆🤔 adventure

    how did the miners do that trip and not fall to their deaths, it is a deadly climb and a lot of loose rocks, what if one lost their footing? What do you see on this tracking, first mine, was it real dangerous.

      I questioned the animal that had dragged the deer in there and perhaps dispacted it.
