keeping the locations hidden is a must do these days! the drunks and lots of the shooter up a-holes just don't care about anything but there destruction.. great vid.. ..happy trails always..
@@doug6885 currently searching for Beck Cabin in another tab with Google Earth.. So far only found the mountain pass but combing the area in high resolution hopefully can locate and tour digitally without needing to go there..
I've been riding dual sport bikes for 40 years. Cyclist, the jeep and 4x4 crowds were pretty respectful. Not until the "side by side" did we start seeing utter destruction and massive amounts of litter. They've torn apart an area about by Searchlight Nevada in just a few months.
The one thing we know about early man and woman was that they were artists. I really like your work here, im the same sort of person who loves the desert and its peace and beauty.
Glad you enjoyed it. I will be including some more petroglyphs and pictographs in future videos. There are some really neat panels that are hidden deep in the mountains.
Aw...Buster Wilson's place. We camped there many times in the lower cabin in the 70's. The water was still running into a trough. I have pictures of us hanging out. The outside of the cabin was covered in mud but you can't tell from the video. Later in the 70's the Hell's Angels found the place and took it over. We use to camp in the upper cabin but was kind of spooky. There was a story that there was gold hidden inside. I remember it having a stove and a place to have a fire. Why did you walked up to the second one when we drove our VW's up. Buster also had another (3rd) cabin on the other side of the Main Road, but never went there. Lot's of fun. Thanks for the adventures.
I really like the places you explore and hope to get out there eventually. I also share your passion for preserving these areas and hope others respect what our wild lands have to offer. Peace....:-)
The graffiti on the petroglyphs, shot up relics, and general disregard for history is why we can have nice things and why explorers, such as yourself, can’t typically give away the actual locations in good conscious. They will likely just get destroyed. Another great video and thanks for the adventure!
Just stumbled on your channel, THANK YOU! I live for exploring in Southern New Mexico, an unexpected injury has me down with a ruptured disk and awaiting surgery. you sir are keeping me sane while I am down! it is getting me out of the house at least till I can resume exploring on my own again. Thank you. such beauty that too many people would never bother looking up from their phones to see. Again appreciate you!
Thank you for watching. I had loads of fun at Cimarron when I was a Boy Scout. Three times my troop traveled from Fairbanks Alaska to Philmont to spend a month hiking on the mesas. Then we would hike many of the trails all through the Pacific Northwest and Canada. Three months traveling, what a great time.
I really enjoy all your video's that you have put out so far. I also appreciate you taking the time to show others that the aboriginal people's of the southwest also live in some really harsh places and survived. I have been exploring the Arizona deserts and mountains for over 50 years. I have found some really interesting places that have seen very little of modern man and like you plan on keeping it that way. Keep up the great work! 👍👍👍 G. J. Phx. Az.
Thanks for the Video,much appreciated! Had to wonder about what those natives were thinking and creating on rock at that time. Certainly not that someone would be viewing it on a small phone device, many many years later!
Really appreciate your videos and information. Thank you for sharing your adventures, history and care in your explorations. For those of us who can't do this anymore its greatly appreciated!
Thank you for sharing your hikes among these forgotten places, a little history reminds us how difficult life was, and yet I envy those who endured it with their simple but real ways of life in this so beautiful nature .
So glad I found your site! I love those petroglyphs...I'm in the New Mexico desert, so have explored here for them, mines, caves, rocks, etc.. So many memories! it's been a long year, so am glad to watch yours. Thank you very much...
What a great spot, so beautiful! I love your videos, and i love to go exploring i just wish i had a vehicle that could take me to those places. Man i miss my Blazer it took me everywhere! Thanks for sharing. 👍😀
I used to curate a museum which had a two stall outhouse as part of the preserved site and virtually everybody would explore it. So yes people like to see it. Love your site , keep up the excellent work.
This is such a beautiful place! I'm so glad you make these videos, i have always been amazed be the desert. You have given me a chance to see it! Also, you should make the petroglyph pictures you took into frameable art, i would love to have them hanging on a wall
Love the photos ! How I long to understand the who, what and why of this place. Thank you for sharing this. I am putting together a small adventure now. Just waiting for the glue to cure.
Well, I wanted to go exploring... But now I've found your channel and have been binge-watching each video all the way to the end! Great vids! Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your efforts to show a bygone era which is still partially standing so we can see what it was like back then. Rough and tough men and women back then.
The videos are great, i'm enjoying the scenery very much, and also the information that you give in that area. I'm looking forward to seeing more videos. Thanks for the great job that your doing.
I watched this one again . I liked it loved the views. You are to calm I would still be in a rant over the person who defaced the rock. Keep up the great work. I'v got to get out and explore my self. Thanks again.
Love these videos. I agree you should keep the locations secret because you have people who don’t respect these great hieroglyph. These hieroglyphs are so important for us to study of ancient civilizations and there cultures and people just love to Destroy. With that said I’d love to go hiking with this guy. It would be such a great idea if you would set up a hiking trip for your viewers to get a chance to experience things like going into some of these caves and hiking up the mountains. I’d certainly would love to go…
Great job I have some photos. That would blow your mind and I was just a carpenter. Building a cabin. Rock formations are in insane. Somebody else had to put these rocks like this. They look like Eagle's Wings
Love seeing these forgotten places soo neat, I would be out there cause I have a idea where it's at, but I will not disclose it cause I agrees with the beep, & plus it very hot out ,so you are a very brave hiker, 👍,the pictures other rocks look Asia a child drew them, so cool
Just found your videos and think they are cool. I to get "angry" (for lack of speech) when I see people with no sense defaceing something thats been around a lot longer then they"ll even live. The spiral shaped petro speaks of where we come from. Made of earth. The wavy lines means theres water around. The human shape with the mountain goat is the "clan" name. Didn't see them all but now you know a part of the story. Great work. Turtles mean your on turtle island. Enjoy
Thank you for that. I get really upset. It is these people that get roads into certain areas closed down, forcing people who don't have the means or the ability to get to these wonderful sites from enjoying them.
I really enjoy your videos, keep them coming. I grew up in Arizona and as a kid enjoyed seeing the same things you are seeing here, the drawings really resemble each other. Its soo sad about the vandalism, seen none of that back in the 60's and early 80's when I was seeing this stuff, even as a kid back then we would HAVE NEVER considered defacing them, its so sad.
Me gusta piñón piña y juniper. Increíble para mi nariz! Bridge Mountain hike awaits, high on the Wilson Cliffs for you, DT. Dadgummit DT. I wanted to see if the outhouse was a two-holer! Edited because inquiring minds want to know. Your truck is in the canyon that leads to Bridge Mountain via Red Rock Summit. A doctor from Colorado that specializes in the 14er summits has a great video on Bridge Mountain. I call BM hike a mini Grand Canyon.
8th generation Nevadan and have learned more for you than any of them, my grandmother being a Nevada Historian , you would think that I would know more ? Regardless, thanks for the information, really interesting. And knowing your stuff, backing it up with facts. Looking forward to seeing more, and if you ever need company, I want to go. I’m quiet and respectful and can hike.
My wife and I have spent a lot of time in S.E. Utah exploring cedar mesa, bears ears, and comb ridge for the beautiful petroglyphs. Unfortunately, too many people think defacing them is fun and don't have any respect for the historical value. Like you I could rant for hrs. but I'll stop by saying at least the areas you are exploring are remote and lazy people don't want to hike to get to them....:-)
For the life of me I will never understand why people do this. Even when I was young and dumb I would have never considered defacing anything……it’s like erasing history. Makes me pissed
Those petroglyphs on the scattered stones were obviously part of a much larger structure. As you made it to the cliff wall there were obvious signs of stone infastructure. Perfect stacking, straight lines and signs of mortar. The forest service had no intention of maintaining those buildings because they would attract attention to the site. All of these national parks are protected and controlled so most people don't know or find out about the ancient people that inhabited these places prior to their destruction. I understand and thank you for keeping these locations as secret as possible. I sure would be interested in more footage of the initial "cliff" wall and hieroglyphs- very fascinating, the stacking of those stones were very precise and it makes me wonder if the story of that "mining" site may have been a bit altered throughout time.
Built a cabin in San Diego found petroglyphs on the side of the mountain was called The Vision Quest in a day I have photographs. Looks like one of the same areas that you're in
Got one like that here where I live .. good thing is you need a 4x4 to even get close. Where any of those 'bell rocks' .. the site that I go has them .. they do 'sound'.
Thank you for this video. Very well done! Lovely scenery, fascinating glimpse of a not-so-ancient moment in history when pioneers were staking a claim and trying to make a dent in the universe. I, too, despise those who deface our priceless, Native American/Indigenous/First Nations cultural artifacts. Again, thank you for this video.
One of the petroglyphs looked like a man with a bow and arrow .means a monster slayer saw similar in monument valley Navaho country.back in the day I imagine a lot of the scrub and trees was clear from the property. thanks!
I like the rock pictocliff looks like they came from the rock face above, if put back together I wonder what story it would tell interesting 🤔 wish their was a way to restore it.
I was trying to find another cabin that the people who ran cattle in the area told me about, that is why I hiked. I found the third cabin but it was just a pile of mud and lumber and did not include it in the video.
The upper cabin, no idea. There is some indication it may of been used until the 1980s. The lower cabin was used up till it was disassembled by the BLM fire-team by local ranch hands, prospectors and hunters.
Happy that I was able to give you a little in-site of the area. I wanted to tell more, but was not happy how I told the story so I left it out. Maybe I will do an update.
My now deceased father who was very knowledgeable about things of the past and old once told me that these petroglyphs were a way to communicate that there was water close by or the wheat grass grows well on this side etc. I didn't see any religious symbols... But after they were taught christianity sometimes you would see symbols representing that. I only wish I could talk with my father to really retain the things he taught me so long ago.
I liked the stills at the end. Keep making it your own and learn a little more here and there on how to present it just the way you want it. Maybe a short intro that will start all your videos. You can get super creative. The world’s your oyster.
Did you or do you know Dr. Halsey Miller? Circa 1965, North Carolina. The “desert” forest is just beautiful. There’s one lady that did a whole channel hunting out houses which are almost all gone now.
Dr. Miller has probably passed away by now. He was very active in the Southwest as a paleontologist and made several major discoveries. He loved the desert for most everything about it. He was a Professor at High Point College, High Point, N. C. In 1965. I was fortunate to do several local exploration on the Cape Fear River with him as a student.
So cool, I have hiked a lot places like this. Studying rock art. Shame some people can not just enjoy this history. Feeling they have to leave some kind of useless marking. I have spread my father’s and one brother’s ashes in such a area. I would like mine there as well. 🤷🏻♂️😁 Thanks for sharing, and caring. 👌✌️
So, at the 5 min. mark you are at the rock face. Which it is, now. Back at it's creation it was a tree. I've wondered why all the glyphs are scattered and always written on what looks like carbon buildup, but it was the inside of the tree we are seeing, broken and scattered on the base of the tree. Wow. Of course this is the nutty me speaking, I just think too much.
You've been watching that Hangman guy's videos! Right? Did you tell him what you thought up? . . . . . You should before someone else does, just sayin'.
That many petroglyphs in an area is highly significant. They didn't do that for nothing. It takes time and energy, plus, makin the noise to do it, knowing hostiles may hear, and come looking.
Knocked it outta the park again with that music. A little too short though. LOL Those petraglyphs look like they were put there last week. Amazing. They must be markings of stories told by an ancient people. The 15 minute rant gets a big AMEN! from me. I watch a lot of desert videos and UrbEx and hate vandalism too.
keeping the locations hidden is a must do these days! the drunks and lots of the shooter up a-holes just don't care about anything but there destruction.. great vid.. ..happy trails always..
Thank You

Never tried ringing the rocks in this area. We have a few sites that ringing rocks and it is neat to hear them.

Thank you again. Great video and for all great that you keep the places secret!
Thank you, very informative. Could you add the dates first/last occupied or abandoned
Very interesting place.
Outstanding content 👍
I grew up in places like that. 👍 everything comes out at night. Be careful where you look for shade.
The upper cabin is one of the best places to camp. You can drive to it and that's what makes it one of the best.
I was trying to find another cabin that the people who ran cattle in the area told me about, that is why I hiked. I found the third cabin but it was just a pile of mud and lumber and did not include it in the video.
Great video. Just was wondering what they must done for water at.the second site. Maybe pack it in from the first?
There are a couple seeps near by above the site. It is ikely they used a gravity feed line.
Amazing just beautiful. It’s a shame people have to ruin things. Yes I watched to the end
Thank you for watching. It is a sad thing that people destroy. Because of the things that happened last year it is getting worse.
very cool petroglyphs, I know where these are.
Shh! They are neat to see.
Any idea when the site was last occupied? looks like 60+ years.
The upper cabin, no idea. There is some indication it may of been used until the 1980s. The lower cabin was used up till it was disassembled by the BLM fire-team by local ranch hands, prospectors and hunters.
I've seen petroglyphs throughout Utah and Nevada ,have never seen those type figures.Would like to know how old they are.
I have wondered about the history of the lower ranch. It's cool to know there's petroglyphs in the area.
Happy that I was able to give you a little in-site of the area. I wanted to tell more, but was not happy how I told the story so I left it out. Maybe I will do an update.
Was there pine trees in that little valley and are there any of the methusula trees around? Are the petroglyphs Paiute or Shoshone?

Thanks real good stuff. Don't feel bad about the rant If I had been there I would have been up set also.
Maybe you can contact archeologists about the petroglyphs, one of those looks Egyptian. That was so awesome!
These have already been studied back in the 1950s. Not a good paper and I feel a new study needs to be done, but it is all there is for now.

Dr. Miller has probably passed away by now. He was very active in the Southwest as a paleontologist and made several major discoveries. He loved the desert for most everything about it. He was a Professor at High Point College, High Point, N. C. In 1965. I was fortunate to do several local exploration on the Cape Fear River with him as a student.
I have already sent an email to a friend who works at a scientific papers archive to see if he can find any papers written.
One discovery is at Cretaceous dinosaurian remains from Southern Arizona, JSTOR. Halsey W. Miller Jr.
Nice, thank you.
Whaat was that pictograph of where u (very understandably) ranted about the vandalization?
What’s the water source for the upper house area? Also elevation of the upper house.
So cool, I have hiked a lot places like this. Studying
rock art. Shame some people
can not just enjoy this history.
Feeling they have to leave some
kind of useless marking.
I have spread my father’s and
one brother’s ashes in such a
area. I would like mine there
as well. 🤷🏻♂️😁
Thanks for sharing, and caring.
👌✌️
Your welcome
Great video and thank you for the rock art stills.
Wonderful! Thanks.
Thank you too!
So, at the 5 min. mark you are at the rock face. Which it is, now. Back at it's creation it was a tree. I've wondered why all the glyphs are scattered and always written on what looks like carbon buildup, but it was the inside of the tree we are seeing, broken and scattered on the base of the tree. Wow. Of course this is the nutty me speaking, I just think too much.
You've been watching that Hangman guy's videos! Right? Did you tell him what you thought up?

That many petroglyphs in an area is highly significant. They didn't do that for nothing. It takes time and energy, plus, makin the noise to do it, knowing hostiles may hear, and come looking.
Knocked it outta the park again with that music. A little too short though. LOL
Those petraglyphs look like they were put there last week. Amazing. They must be markings of stories told by an ancient people.
The 15 minute rant gets a big AMEN! from me. I watch a lot of desert videos and UrbEx and hate vandalism too.
You have any footage of the Lovelock Bat cave?
