Looking for Mines in Little Tujunga

- I decided to poke around Nehr Canyon and Limerock Canyon to look for adits of abandoned mines in the Little Tujunga area on the western section of the San Gabriel Mountains. I found a small mine in Limerock Canyon and an even smaller mine in Nehr Canyon. I'm sure that there are more out there. This was just a quick recon mission to scout out areas that might be worth exploring more.
I plan on doing more videos on mines in the area soon. Sometimes I find mines that go deep into the earth with multiple levels and other times the tunnels go back only a couple of feet or 10's of feet like in this video.
This is going below all videos in my long form content:
FYI: I explore a lot and stumble upon many different things. The way I go about sharing locations is that if someone tells me to keep a spot secret before I wind up finding it on my own, I keep those spots secret. Otherwise, I share information at my own discretion because I like sharing what I find. I may take things down, obscure locations, or remove data upon request as I have done in the past, but a lot of the places I visit are less well known (because I'm exploring), so I could potentially be removing everything if I did things the other way around, which I don't want to do.
If there is a spot you'd like me to keep secret (if I find it), let me know BEFORE. I change my mind about what I keep secret on my own, but if we talk, I am much less likely to jeopardize my integrity than change my mind. There are a few secrets I don't share with people because I agree to keep these spots on the down low (even when I have heard about them through different parties before visiting). If I find a spot on my own on publicly accessible land and I decided to share it despite you not wanting me to, THAT'S ON YOU. These areas are for everyone to enjoy, explore, and share with the world. Feel free to reach out. I am a reasonable person.
God job hunting theses ones down. There're definitely better mines in the eastern half and in the front range of the san gabriels, but it's still cool to find these little ones.
Btw right at the parking area for limerock canyon are the ruins of a limekiln. It's in that fenced off area right next to the road. There's a big chimney built into the ground. I believe it's from the 1890s or so.
Nice, I think I might have seen it but I'm not sure. I'll definitely poke around a little more next time I'm out there. There are definitely some great mines out East. Pacoima canyon has some of the better ones I've seen in the Western Range, but it was neat checking out these. I'm sure there are more in Pacoima canyon that I haven't found yet, so I might try and poke around that area a little more in the future. That second one you found in Nehr Canyon was pretty awesome.
gonna go out to little tujunga canyon tomorrow after watching. 😝😝
Awesome, I'll try to see if I can find some better mines here too in the future. Forgotten mining history (the RUclips channel) found a really neat one in Nehr canyon, but I need to spend a little more time there to locate it (this was pretty quick). If you haven't been to the dutch louie tunnel in Pacoima Canyon, that one is pretty nice, and goes back further than these.
I like caves
Awesome! I plan on visiting more in the future.
