Years ago, any spare time I had I was out in the Mojave dry washing Old Gold Mine tailing piles for gold! By myself, Loved it out there. But time takes it's toll! Now I just sit in my chair and ride shotgun with Wonderhussy.. Thank God for you and the bravery you possess. One of a kind you are. Thank You Sarah
I wonder 🤔 how many times you’ve said, “I probably shouldn’t be wearing flip flops”? I sure appreciate you braving the dangers so we can all see the coolest of the coolest in the most remote places! Thanks!
Wonderhussy, that tire did not look worn to a point of having to get a new tire. As a matter of fact, it looked like there was lots of tread. But to each his own.
Esp. if she does get suckered into changing them..the garage will sell them, won't even tell her, "used" for 300 or more..I sold my used set for five hundred Canadian...
I've been living the Hanta Virus nightmare. Travel trailer in the Mohave Desert. I'm moving into a nursing home because I'm coming down with all sorts of diseases and conditions at 69. I have recently acquired Lupus which can give one all sorts of issues and now I'm struggling with losing my ability to walk. Weak legs no fun. Asthma and suddenly I'm on oxygen. I think once I get out of this old falling apart trailer? I think my health can only improve. I hope so. I'm giving up my freedom way earlier than I thought I would in my life. But taking my guitar and a positive attitude. I used to cook in a couple nursing homes a few years back. They're not so bad. Send prayers!!😂❤I'm tired of being stranded with a broken down trailer and broken down car in a terrible economy. I couldn't see anywhere out but this. So I'll be travelling via utube from now on. Whew....how strange.😢
Well Sir I hope all works out for you! I t doesn't help when people are putting all kinds of crap in out atmosphere. I think they target our older generation on purpose. Also there is no oath that a doctor goes by anymore I wouldn't trust the Doctors these days either. They get paid to much money from the gov or insurance co,s Anything to get you depending on a monthly payment (MEDS ETC)
I hope things improve for you soon, UnderTheTornado! Here's wishing you the best and smooth sailing in these stormy seas. I'm 62 with some health issues myself and can sympathize with you. Best of luck to you!
Hey a million thanks to your Massachusetts friend for finding this little gem in the middle of nowhere!! 👍 Just loved it. I so love the stories you tell on how it must of have been for the folks living there back in the day! Very thankful that you made it up there with no problems, no flat tires or breakdowns! I know you take that risk for us as well as far yourself to find awesome findings to explore, and we all appreciate it and love you for it. 🥰 You're truly the new modern day pioneer woman who loves the great outdoors! Thank you so much for another great find Sarah! Just a side note for you: Please take your boots 🥾 and have gloves on when you explore just to protect yourself, don't want anything to happen to ya!! Just saying 🥴😆 On to the next great find. Happy trails Wonderhussy!! Love ya girl 💕
Miss Wonderhussey, that international truck was a 1952 according to my hubby. He said they made them around that time 1952 - 1955. They came with the 2 windows in the back or 1 big window later on. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and your family. Stay safe on those adventures. 🥰💖👍👍👍👍👍(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
WH please take Hantavirus seriously and protect yourself. I knew someone who DIED in 1997 after sweeping out a cabin in SB mountains! She and her fiancé both contracted but she succumbed. Retired RN here who ❤ your channel.
Very unlikely, 6812. It would'nt be ms Lloyd then, surely ? That's her way. As she said, ya can get knocked over going to your local shop for a loaf, etc...
I wish I could sit every young person under the age of 20 in front of you for a lecture on "true freedom". Safety, the Nanny State, the free ride, ALL these notions conspire to enslave the populous. I sooooo enjoy your programming...Wonderhussy! You are my Wonderhussy! Forever!
Been gone for a while in a VA rubber room. After you've been locked up for a week or 3, it sure is nice to see the world through your experiences. It helps you appreciate the little things. 😅
As someone who is sensitive to too much sun, Coppertone QT was a "Quick Tanner" that would stain your hands if you didn't wear gloves. It smelled terrible. The fire hazard was probably due to methane accumulation. I know smoking in outhouses was hazardous.
Wow, you really took me back to when we used to stay at the old hunters cabin. The outhouse had a No Smoking sign and we never knew why. Thank you for explaining!
I was in 1st grade in 1968. My parents used to go camping all over the Rockies from Yellowstone to the Mogollon Rim in Arizona. I would say my parents went camping excessively sometimes 6 or 7 times in the summer and a few times in even in the snow. The 12-mile hike when I turned 14 was a fun one. My favorite thing was finding ghost towns also ancient Anasazi ruins. I learned how to use a manual film camera when I was 6 years old.
Sarah and any off grid junkie just a word of caution about changing flat tires - when getting new tires installed insist on hand tight with a lug wrench not a impact driver .out in the middle of no where even Sasquarch may not get the lug nuts loose. Also throw away the cheap lug wrench and get a 4 way lug wrench .
Impact wrench or Hand tightened is fine as long as the lugs are properly torqued afterwards. I nearly had a tire fall off in the middle of nowhere due to improperly torqued lugs. 4 of the six had completely fallen off and the other two were barely hanging on by a half inch. Luckily I was able to tighten the remaining two and get back to town. All of the bolts were bent and had to be pounded out and replaced. The wheel as well because of all the flopping around made the bolt holes egg shaped instead of round. Would have been a complete nightmare if that tire had fallen off completely where we were. Properly torqued lug nuts can be broken loose easy enough even for those of us without much arm strength. I just use what little body weight I have and jump on the wrench to break them loose 😅 Anyway, that’s my unsolicited 2 cents worth of opinion. Properly torque the lug nuts and possibly save yourself from a huge disaster.
never goto a shop where a idiot uses an impact driver to tighten lug nuts .... I twisted a t wrench in half with my hands trying to get lug nuts off my 8 lug truck , had to get a socket and a breaker bar
In April of "68 I was gettin' ready to graduate high school. Yes, you should use a little personal protection in those nasty cabins. Very interesting place as usual.
As the beetle was a sexy new car ? And the young misses is from good ol' Germany? Your jokes on cars are too good. 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for sharing your adventures and knowledge. Three thumbs up 👍👍 from Denmark 🇩🇰
Everybody gotta be somewhere. I'm very happy to travel with you Wonderhussy. Love what you share with us. I have to join the chorus of fans urging you to be more cautious when you are exploring. You don't get extra points for ignoring precautions you know about. 😊 Keep bringing us these adventures. Stay safe Sarah. ❤
That weight is a window weight to help raise and lower windows. As for Mary Worth, that comic moved at such a slow pace that I would not be surprised if the story still has not been concluded yet.

Nice adventure... lots of fun watching and listening to your thoughts. Good sense of humor. Love one video about Utah I believe it was About the young couple probably dry humping. 😂😂😂😂.❤.
Rad cabin! I'm a man (more or less) and armed (more or less) and I'd still get the heebee-geebees spending the night up there alone - even in my truck.
I´m pleased by your diligence in buckling in _John_ into the passenger seat. Because he is getting a little soft in the middle, safety is paramount. _Safety first!_
I love it when you find old newspapers and read them out loud. It kinda puts us back in time. From the Future!! It’s way cool my kiddos don’t know what a paper is. Thanks for sharing, it’s so nostalgic and a strange sight into the past of lives that once walked there. Only trying to strike it with the gold bug. Thanks keep it up love it. ❤❤❤ 🖖
Great adventure, I was 12 in April 1968, getting ready to start junior high, love the newspaper ads! Wow, I SURE miss those grocery prices! Thank you. I sure wish I could do what you do. ❤
April 23, 68 is my birthday, I may have been trying to get to class, on time, at Pierce College in Woodland Hills, SoCal. But most likely I was blowing school off and driving my 58 VW Bug through Malibu Canyon headed to the beach.
There's a couple bars of AT&T service at that site. I almost camped there so I didn't have to use my Starlink, but went down lower instead. I'm guessing you recorded this before I came through because my card isn't on the wall.
@@ExploringCabinsandMines I don't know. Whoever Wonder hussy keeps saying is threatening! I just wondered if "they" were targeting just her going to these cabins.
Holy cow Sahara; If you don't have one of them emergency satellite beacons "I'm" going to start worrying ... This might make a good topic in another video along with desert survival..
MSRP on that VW was $1699.00 and lots of folks wondered if it was worth it with a same year full size American sedan starting at only about a thousand dollars more . The Beetle's fuel economy wasn't as important with 34 cent a gallon gas .
I quit my job washing dishes at the elks Lodge after school for $1:25 to work at orange Julius for $1:35. Moving on up to the east side. I finally got a piece of the rock.😅
That weight looks like a window weight for old double hung windows. The weight counterbalanced the weight of the window so the window would stay where it was put.
Thank you for your service✌ I hope you still find your adventure on 2 or 4 wheels, even if it's just cruising main! Life moves slower but you can see every wildflower in the roadside ditches and feel every fault in the Earth...
Wow!! That view 🙌🏻 so awesome! So remote I love it! I could sit out there all day and, night time would be awesome!! Thank your guy for sending you here! And omg you’re too funny…camel toes HAHAHA. And the newspaper….not cool what that rich lady said, buuuuuut I guess that’s how things were back then 🤷🏻♀️really sad! Thank you beautiful lady again for killing it in this video ✌🏼be safe 💜
TY-WH! Yep. I saw plenty of those when they demo older houses, and they are usually in the wall, with ropes an pulleys too. A real problem when the ropes rot out, but sometimes it's just a few hours work.
Hey Sarah, Thanks for taking us on this adventure! Both cottages were amazing, but that second one was fantastic, and obviously in good enough shape that it must still be used from time to time. I wonder about the history of the first one 🤔 Given how remote it is, it's hard to imagine people living there year round as recently as 1968. Wouldn't you just love to know the history around these places?! Either way, thanks for sharing your adventure here with us. Your channel is so cool and you are so entertaining! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Got to air down! Those KO2s wear fast...rotate and then upgrade to the new KO3s. You should make your way to the old Barker Ranch...super cool outing, but takes a full day. ...and yes some of those cabins in "___x__x___x___y" are maintained and usable if need be...just not the ones that are all full of rat disease. But over the years - maintained. Thanks for sharing!
That place is so sick have stayed there multiple times. We actual opened it up last time there was a tree that fell and blocked the road. But looks like you did find the third cabin up there that over looks the valley that you wont say. When you come down from the second cabin on the ridge you just go left. Its a really nice cabin as well and has some very old glass and some other cool artifacts
That weight looks like a 'window weight'. They were used inside window frames to counter the weight of the movable part of a window so they were easy to open, and didn't drop hard enough to shatter the glass when you closed it. One was each side, with rope and a pulley.
I used to live near Rosamund CA, had a friend who lived there. On the road out to her place, there was a graffitied, abandoned hanger. She told me that no one would go near it because Charlie's "Family" used to occupy it. Rosamund is a couple hours away from Bishop.
I agree with you Sarah Jane, GREAT find with a million dollar view . The great desert country IF one gets off the interstate highway !!! Harry in AK PS Used to get to the hills every chance we got when living in Fallon , NV for many years .
Wonder Hussey, love it when you read the newspapers, when you go into these cabins or these areas, it takes me back in time when you read them, don’t ever stop
Thank you Wonderhussy ❤ I do everything I can not to pass the flu to anyone else. The shared cabin brings back memories of traveling when people were welcoming not so fearful. Have a most wonderful day Wonderhussy
Have been up to that area many times. Usually in winter. The hilltop cabin looked much more mouse poop ridden than I remember. That cabin also used to have a good water collection system off the roof so there was usually water out back. And last but not least there are a couple more cabins in the area. One with a really nice deck but not as big a view. Worth exploring the area more. Your video is the 1st time I have ever seen the gate open. I have always parked at the bottom and walked in. I kind of like that better. Less people come in then. Feels more like real exploring. Hope you found a nice camp.
WonderHussy, PLEASE talk to your 4×4 shop about a HiLift jack. It WILL get you up AND out of MOST situations (along with your shovel) NECESSARY tool for 4 wheeling !!!
That "plumb bob" is actually a window sash counter-weight, very common in old fashioned windows. It's unlikely that primitive cabin had such a window installed, so they probably used it for something else. I used to have about 20 of tbose weights, left over from a house that burned down.
When I was younger I loved getting out and enjoying life but now I always worry am I gonna breakdown you have so much energy I love it god speed wonderhussy ❤
The weight is for the window. It is a counterweight. They ride inside the wall to help you lift the window open. A piece of rope ran over a pulley. This shack may not have had windows like that.
![Gunna - HIM ALL ALONG [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/w7Wf0h1Q8a4/mqdefault.jpg)
That heavy cast iron weight is a counterweight from a sash window, lets you slide the sash up and down and takes the weight to make it easy!
You guys are quick..LOL
Thank you for the interesting informative background information
I grew up in an old house with wood windows. It was a real talent knowing how to unstick them.
@@Dills1995 We always rubbed the window frames ( wooden drawer slides too) with a bar of soap. don't want to go crazy with that though.

Wow!! That view 🙌🏻 so awesome! So remote I love it! I could sit out there all day and, night time would be awesome!! Thank your guy for sending you here! And omg you’re too funny…camel toes HAHAHA. And the newspaper….not cool what that rich lady said, buuuuuut I guess that’s how things were back then 🤷🏻♀️really sad! Thank you beautiful lady again for killing it in this video ✌🏼be safe 💜
I thought I knew where you were, but when I saw the rusted gate, I knew exactly where you are and where you're going. Love it up there.
I believe that the weight in the first cabin served as a window counter balance
TY-WH! Yep. I saw plenty of those when they demo older houses, and they are usually in the wall, with ropes an pulleys too. A real problem when the ropes rot out, but sometimes it's just a few hours work.
Hey Sarah, Thanks for taking us on this adventure! Both cottages were amazing, but that second one was fantastic, and obviously in good enough shape that it must still be used from time to time. I wonder about the history of the first one 🤔 Given how remote it is, it's hard to imagine people living there year round as recently as 1968. Wouldn't you just love to know the history around these places?! Either way, thanks for sharing your adventure here with us. Your channel is so cool and you are so entertaining! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
HEY HUSSY!!! Love your informational videos.
In 68 I was 18 going into the military , 6 years living the life LOL .
the front end of a truck you showed,, went to the International cab across the road,
This was such a cool video…..I really enjoy how you create your videos …..the old newspapers were fascinating! Stay safe ❤
Got to air down! Those KO2s wear fast...rotate and then upgrade to the new KO3s. You should make your way to the old Barker Ranch...super cool outing, but takes a full day. ...and yes some of those cabins in "___x__x___x___y" are maintained and usable if need be...just not the ones that are all full of rat disease. But over the years - maintained.
Thanks for sharing!
Love the time you spent in the newspaper, it's like a look back in time.
That place is so sick have stayed there multiple times. We actual opened it up last time there was a tree that fell and blocked the road. But looks like you did find the third cabin up there that over looks the valley that you wont say. When you come down from the second cabin on the ridge you just go left. Its a really nice cabin as well and has some very old glass and some other cool artifacts
That weight looks like a 'window weight'. They were used inside window frames to counter the weight of the movable part of a window so they were easy to open, and didn't drop hard enough to shatter the glass when you closed it. One was each side, with rope and a pulley.
Botanical desert plants! when the desert sniffs the rain. Loads mooore of that great desert eco-system content WH ... nu big fan in Oz 🌵👈
The solitude is alluring!
Hey FYI I was looking at your forerunner and it looks like you need to check out your front Ball joints possible alignment
Thanks for the thrilling ride over Rocks.❤
Boy that newspaper boy had a ride to deliver that paper… 😂
I hope they tipped him generously.
I used to live near Rosamund CA, had a friend who lived there. On the road out to her place, there was a graffitied, abandoned hanger. She told me that no one would go near it because Charlie's "Family" used to occupy it. Rosamund is a couple hours away from Bishop.
If you actually lived near "Rosamund", as I did some 45 years ago in Cal City, you would then know it's spelled "Rosamond".
I agree with you Sarah Jane, GREAT find with a million dollar view . The great desert country IF one gets off the interstate highway !!! Harry in AK PS Used to get to the hills every chance we got when living in Fallon , NV for many years .
I liked Mrs. Olsen pitching her coffee, but the coffee babe was more my style.
You're amazing. You inspire me. I finally got out of my shell this past weekend. I thought of you
Love your courage. You inspire me and I need it. 57 retired need motivation. I promise I'm a good person
Hi Hussy! Greetings from Redmond Oregon
Great video! Love your sense of humor! Keep 'em coming!!!
Wonder Hussey, love it when you read the newspapers, when you go into these cabins or these areas, it takes me back in time when you read them, don’t ever stop
The QT is quick tanning and that weight is from in the wall for the old windows. Weight so the window would stay open.
Sara, Thanks for showing such interesting places with your usual wonderful descriptions!
Thank you Wonderhussy ❤ I do everything I can not to pass the flu to anyone else. The shared cabin brings back memories of traveling when people were welcoming not so fearful. Have a most wonderful day Wonderhussy
Have been up to that area many times. Usually in winter. The hilltop cabin looked much more mouse poop ridden than I remember. That cabin also used to have a good water collection system off the roof so there was usually water out back. And last but not least there are a couple more cabins in the area. One with a really nice deck but not as big a view. Worth exploring the area more. Your video is the 1st time I have ever seen the gate open. I have always parked at the bottom and walked in. I kind of like that better. Less people come in then. Feels more like real exploring. Hope you found a nice camp.
@WonderhussyAdventuresvc ah, err, don't have a means to text. Email? Sort of old school here.
She found the other one you mentioned, stay tuned until next week.
You know Sarah isn’t lying about not being a beer drinker when she mistakes a bottle opener for a flag mount.😉
WonderHussy, PLEASE talk to your 4×4 shop about a HiLift jack. It WILL get you up AND out of MOST situations (along with your shovel) NECESSARY tool for 4 wheeling !!!
It is so nice to watch your show because I am trapped inside of world of old age!
That "plumb bob" is actually a window sash counter-weight, very common in old fashioned windows. It's unlikely that primitive cabin had such a window installed, so they probably used it for something else. I used to have about 20 of tbose weights, left over from a house that burned down.
Thanks for Saving the trip !!!🙏🏼🎶🔑🦅🇺🇸🥊🌎🎡👀
When I was younger I loved getting out and enjoying life but now I always worry am I gonna breakdown you have so much energy I love it god speed wonderhussy ❤
I just turned 3 years old April of 1968. We were living in Burbank, CA just off the 5 and Alameda.
I wonder what the purpose is of the old washtub nailed on the side of the 2nd cabin.
The weight is for the window. It is a counterweight. They ride inside the wall to help you lift the window open. A piece of rope ran over a pulley. This shack may not have had windows like that.
