I betcha that railroad was a thing of beauty in it's day. Definitely a big thank you on this one. Much appreciated. Please bucket list this one for a return explore.
That was an incredible find. I enjoyed that walk on the railroad bed. The mine looks to be quite extensive and I cant wait to see more from it. Thank you very much for your hard work and time! Regards from Ody Slim
Awesome, awesome explore! You sure do need to go back and camp a few days! Excellent! Thank you for sharing! Oh and that first cabin with the half walls probably had canvas or screen on the top half. Loved the root cellar! Great job!
If you noticed, the boards in the roof the width of them goes to show how big the trees were back in the day when they needed Lumber . Today you won't find boards that wide
Somebody put in a lot of work, gathering and stacking the stones for the cabin and out buildings. I'm sure they're gone now but the fruit of their labor lingers on. Sort of bitter sweet. Thanks for the video.
Boy a great adventure and a good size mine that keeps goingggg and then some .p.s. all that railroad bed and track looks like only room for 1 car by the bunker ?p.s. we all know you will be back and you will have a lot of people tagging along this has alot of exploring and a camp over for quite some nights ❤️ it all 🎩⛏️🏜️🏆🇺🇸🤔till later
Hi Jerith, wow what a stunning find, that old ore bin is still in a great state of repair, that intact in situ Sheave wheel has to be the star of the show though what a fantastic find. I agree, I have never seen any ore bins like this either that have the ore chutes in different orientations, very unique. Oh man how heart breaking to have to leave the mine, I do understand why though, will you be doing a revisit soon as the BLM love to bat gate these off. That mine looks fairly extensive, the colours in the veins are so beautiful and so vivid. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤
Great explore there, Jereth, it looks like you ran out of available time and battery power for your light just as you were getting to the most interesting area of the mine. When you return for Part 2, I hope you can bring some extra batteries and some rope for climbing into some of the more difficult areas. It would be great if you could manage to pull a couple of ore samples. God Bless and stay safe.
25:21 Looks like there would have been a large overhead wheel/pulley that would have been positioned on top of those two posts, so the ore would have been hoisted up and dumped into ore carts on the rails.
Really enjoyed the mine site trek and explore!! The lead up to the mine is important so keep doing that. This mine needs more explore and an hour long would be OK by me for a revisit. Found the mine online easily but nothing linked up properly to get a vertical chart or much more detailed history. Don't know if you could include detail history, old photos (if pubically available) and more detail in the geology you appear to be knowledgeable if on the various strata. Thanks for your efforts so far !!
You need to look for date nails in those ties, because that's the way in the old days they knew when to replace a tie, based on the 2-digit year on the head of the nail.
I was waiting for you to stop, get in the shade, drink and rest... 100 degree plus heat is HOT... Also, those 2 small stone huts with fireplace.. what would they burn, were there more trees back then, or did they bring wood or coal with them.. thanks, fantastic explore..👍👍
Can't wait for part 2 but please bring at least one friend and some gear. If I know you, you'll be scurrying up that ladder!

Please, please, please do a part two! Your videos are amazing. Thanks!

That area is worth an overnight camp. Cheers thanks for sharing.
Great explore, and not a bullet hole in sight.

Still shots are just awesome ..!!!

Nice narrative. Enjoyed the mine with all the colors.
Somebody put in a lot of work, gathering and stacking the stones for the cabin and out buildings.

Thanks for the video.
Wow, this was an exceptional exploration! Thanks for taking us along
The old railroad bed was way cool. This mine is a real historical treasure. Looking forward to part 2. Thanks for the great explore.
Just watched Tom and Julie Explore this mine. It’s a cool one
Good work WMD.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
great explore nice looking vein at the end!!!!
Awesome explore!
Great video!
👍👍👍👊😎

Brit' ish
@@iranortiz3883 please explain ??
That was interesting start to finish! Thanks.
This was a real good explore, hope you can come back to it someday.... Thanks.
That mine is awesome. Really cool to see the miners cabin too
Spectacular mineralization. I hope you return to explore upper and lower levels.
I most definitely will! Hopefully in a few weeks
This is an awesome place.. Thank you for sharing with us
Most of those ties had date nails with a number like 38 meaning 1938 03 like 1903 I would look for them they would be on top of the ties

You do a great job videoing & mixing stills. You would be great at filming museums.
We love watching your shows. Thank you
Sure do enjoy your videos and your respect for the past, first class. Thanks again for taking us along with you and stay safe out there.

Terrific job!
Awesome video. Thanks
Appreciate that, thanks for watching!
If you can give additional information on the metals in the views of materials I would appreciate the information. Thank you

Absolutely gorgeous out there. Wondering where the rattle snakes are hiding?
Fantastic stuff.. But you should take a shovel incase you get blocked in.. those old timbers are about to give way..
What a gem! When is part 2?
Nice explore!
That area must have been relatively successful if they bothered to run a railroad to it.
Thanks, buddy! That tram wheel was cool too! Fun explore..
The bull wheel was awesome especially with the cable still around it. Thanks for watching Ralph!
What a great video, and the minerals were awesome! Keep the videos coming!!😎👍
The reddish color on the wood looks so beautiful, i don't know if it's just the lighting, I wonder what kind they used?
Super Awesome

I would so get lost in there lol Kinda eerie.
Nice explore. Shame people have to tear things apart like that hoist. Thanks for sharing
Yeah truly is a shame but I'm glad it's still there to see. Thanks for watching!
Very interesting explore, did you ever go back?
Could you please provide the filming location. Thx
Great vid, what's the name of the railroad that went to the mines?
Hello Mine Detective i just subscribed you sound really young maybe it's the camera
Kewl
👏👏👍👍👊👊
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed this one.
Nice video, but you are chancing it by going alone
Question: not trees around . We’re the wood come from ?
