Welcome to our journey back in time as we explore 38 incredible real-life photos of the American Old West all taken before 1900. This video is a treasure trove of historical moments, capturing the raw essence of a bygone era.
Imagine the daring spirit of the pioneers and settlers who ventured across the Great Plains, seeking new beginnings. We'll see the majestic mountains that stood as silent witnesses to this era of exploration and the railroad towns and outposts that sprang up along the way.
Get ready to be transported to the heart of gold mining activities and gold rush towns, where dreams were made and often shattered. We'll glimpse into the future ghost towns, once thriving but now whispers of the past.
Our journey will take us through sod houses that sheltered resilient families, stagecoaches and covered wagons that traversed the canyons and canyonlands, and horse trails that wound through mountain summits and passes.
Experience the exhilaration of the explorers, riding alongside horses and cattle, and witness the rise and fall of boomtowns.
This video is more than a collection of old west photos; it's a vibrant tapestry of American history, filled with stories of struggle, survival, and the indomitable human spirit.

WOW, I LIVED IN THE BLACK HILLS FOR A FEW YEARS, 2004 Time frame. Recognize a few of these places, still have a DEEP love for that area, but being from Michigan most of my life, I came back because I missed the water. GREAT PRESENTATION!😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
black hills matter
All I can say is I belong back in those times.......a longing like no other. I wonder where I was on the map in my past life. Wherever it was I was mighty happy. Thanks for the look back my friend.
Hey man no one ain’t stopping you from not showering every day if that’s your thing. 😂😂
Notice there was no bodily comfort in the Old West. You had to be a rugged person to make it back then. Just loved the wonderful pics, watching as I set from the comfort of my couch!
If that's all you had that's all you knew.
These pictures are a portal to the past. Thanks for preserving this incredible history.
I agree with you. I love the past so interesting!
Amazing!! Congratulations!!
I love the photos of the old west that is really nice of you to post these real photos on your youtube channel. Love it keep up the great work!
One of your bests yet. There was no room for wokeness in this era. It was eat or be eaten. Day to day survival was harsh enough.
Thank goodness for continual technical progress of the west. Even just 30 years later, technological revolution in the early 20th century vastly improved people's lives.
Wonderful History,rough,tough but probably all and all still better than it is today without all the slime and filth.
I've heard the first two songs watching pro rodeo wrecks.
I like pictures like this, because people have all but forgotten just how brutal life was when the country was expanding. Countless souls dead and forgotten on those wide expanses of territory. Disease swept them away so often, it became seen as an everyday occurrence. There were no roads for a very long time, only native, wagon or prospector trails. It was vicious, violent, savage and heartbreaking.
Thank you all, who came here before me. My life is a paradise compared to the hell you endured in pursuit of freedom and hopefully a better life.
Well said - thank you for these great comments.
@@TheHistoryLounge I'm an author, inventor, music composer, etc., so it's easier for me to be inspired and express it, than I would suppose others could. Check out Coop's Corner Collection Inspirational Stories and Poems. A beautiful book making its own history.
@user-fv5ms4sz8e That's one way to look at it. Life was also beautiful unspoiled country, fresh air, clean sparkling water and the freedom of the wide open spaces. If life was too rough on the high plains go back East the big cities in the northeast had all the comforts and conveniences.
@@rtflone My observation was in appreciation for the many sacrifices made, not anything else.
How do you even participate in memorial day? Do you go to the memorials or graveyards and go, "Yeah, they died horrible deaths, but they had a good time before they laid down their lives for freedom?" What a ridiculous and heartless thing you said about my comment.
That music had my foot stomping and the moonshine flowing. Actually it was a Lone Star beer , but it's the best tasting thay nayver yiz. 😮
Love the Lone Star!
Greetings from Asturias - Spain. Gracias por su trabajo.
Thank You!!!
Thank you!
Thanks again. New music. I'll bet it can be hard to find new music, but it makes it more pleasant. Again, tks. Those were some tough people that opened new country and settled it not knowing just what they were in for.
Hi Rick - Thank you for your kind words and positive comments. I’m glad you liked the video!
I LOVE all the Indian photos. They are such beautiful people their facial features are just so beautiful to me. Can anyone imagine LIVING in a wigwam? Now that's minimalist living! Ha ha ha And the old timey sod schoolhouse? Ha ha or the Horse and buggy drawn Wells Fargo? The man sitting in the back with a riffle across his lap? This was really fun. Thank you.
Thank you for your great comments!
Stunning photos, mind blowing and beautifully presented! The people who opened the American West were true pioneers, indomitable spirit and enterprise to overcome the hardships they had to endure.
I agree with you it is totally mind blowing!
Good stuff, thanks for posting...
Thanks for watching!
@@TheHistoryLounge 👍👍👍
Beautifully put together as always . Thanks .
Thanks, @ry491!
I love this channel too!
These folks were tough as nails, no crybabies here !!!!!!!!!
Amazing. Loved every second of this. More please. 🤠
Hey, Thanks, Eric - I really appreciate it!
I have to say Wonderful pictures of the Old West , Allways been interested in the Western Days of Old . I did feel sorry a bit for horses with Stagecoach? We what the Western on T V , ON average 6 peaple riding, six horses, In those days I've counted fifteen peaple? Four Horses, Anyway, I love my Westerners, I would have loved to live in those Times, The Trouble is how long ?
650 Thousand young Soldiers lost in the Civil War , i think that figure is on the Union side alone, ? Anyway. Brilliant Pictures, 😂.
All so interesting to see. Have subscribed. 👍
O homem evoluiu. Em partes, claro!
Hey. Cool old west video. As a Spokane Washington resident, it'd be cool if you guys found a bunch of pictures of historic Spokane, and did a video of it.
❤❤❤👍👍👍
There was no whining and complaining.. men and women did what they had to do to survive.
Survival looks different in every generation.
Estados Unidos tem história. Nesse mesmo tempo o Brasil vivia tempos difíceis. Simplesmente não existia nada. Que temos hoje.
//;;//;//;;//...
After watching, all I can say is good job rockstar games for the rdr 2.. wow all the things look the same in the game and in video.
In Mark Twains book Roughing It, he wrote about he and his brother traveling to Colorado. They strung their hammocks up inside the stage coach to avoid the punishing ride. Very interesting book.
Awesome photos....who is the band that is playing the music

Those people look tiny compared to the hotel at 2:38.
I heard tell somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota there lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon. Apparently, one day his woman ran off with another guy.
5:00 jackpot stage caoch in RDR2
Personnally....I would preferred to live back then....the destruction of resources....govt....society....education....etc....etc....mess is only getting worse....and a lot bigger. Lol.
American history from which comes American culture.
Something new migrants will know nothing about ... if they ever cared.
Sounds like you have something against migrants. Why - just because they're migrants? I'd bet your ancestors were migrants, too.
You would be surprised what new migrants know about American history, especially those that study to become citizens. But as a Native American, you probably know it all, eh? Or were you referring to your own ancestors?
@@brucestaples4510 And, judging from your response, you'd be surprised all they don't know. Take a gander at "The Squad" in D.C. and their statements as an example.
Americans are inculcated with American history having grown up with it all about them. An educational system that once taught American history and celebrated American Judeo-Christian customs throughout the years.
Yet you can so smugly sit back in your comfy chair, hot coffee, chocolate or more than likely -- whiskey, at hand and pontificate about someone you know nothing about.
Go back to your somnolent ways and do everyone a welcome favor.
Donald Trump needs to see this video to understand who the real americans were. Now most americans (not all) have forgotten this part of history.
