  • Join me in this first of a two-part video series as I explore the site of the Salt Rive Cave Massacre in the mountains of Arizona. This is also known as the Skeleton Cave fight and took place in the 1870s between the U.S. Army and a band of Apache Indians. As I boat into the area and hike up the mountain I see and find many interesting rocks, animals, and other natural oddities.

    anywhere they have jumping cactus, you should bring a comb with you. it's the best tool for removing any segments of the cactus that gets stuck to you. you put the comb behind the segment where the needles are stuck into you and pull it out real fast. It hurts but it works

    My wife and I both enjoy learning history. That is one of the reasons we like your channel; you include information about what happened in the areas you explore. thank you for making such great videos.

    Like the long exploring videos. Most are places that I will never go and see myself, so getting to sort of take a ride there for a bit when others video exploring those places.

    As usual an excellent video. Thanks for sharing not only your adventures in metal detecting or river hunting but discovery and passing information along as well. You go, and do what a lot of us can't for our own reasons whether health, financial, family obligations, or a multitude of life's doings, we get taken along. I don't know if you realize what a positive impact that has on those who follow you. A thank you seems somewhat petty, but who you are, and what you do is very much appreciated. May you be safe, stay strong, live long, and keep doing what you enjoy.

  • @theflinx
    @theflinx 7 лет назад +4

    Being an AZ native, I think your crazy hiking alone in places like that for many reasons. I hope you leave a note with your boat saying where you were going, and also notify someone about when you expect to get back.

    Love your content, sir. Can’t count the number of times you’ve just dropped a nugget of knowledge or wisdom that has made me pause the videos to look up more info. You have a valuable wealth of knowledge on so many subjects. Really appreciate you sharing it with us.
    I remember seeing a father-son team of paranormal investigators go into that cave. I’m almost cringing as I wait for you to tell the rest of the tale of what happened there.

    Great videos, EXCELLENT. I can tell you first hand about Africanized bees here in Texas. Got into them shredding a pecan orchard. I was stung over 200 times before I could get off my tractor. Started off in the ER, Ended up in the hospital. Damn near killed me. Not a great experience

    Note: If you access via Hell's Hip Ridge stay away from the Horse Mesa Dam. Local dutch hunter Jim Hatt tells a tale that Homeland security has the area monitored with motion sensors. Stating when you trip a sensor that an Apache Helicopter will immediately be on route to pat you down.

    Great adventure. That’s one nice thing about the desert country is how well it preserves all that history. In that dry climate wood can last on the surface for a hundred years or more. I explore tons of old homestead sites, stage stops, wagon roads and am constantly amazed with how long the traces of that history can last around here.
    On another note, I completely don’t understand how some people can be so inconsiderate of those old sites. So frustrating to see modern trash there.
    Really enjoying your videos. Thanks for taking the time to do them for us!

    New subscriber to your channel here, great content! The only change I could suggest is that those of us using Apple IPads with crummy speakers find the volume a bit too low. I have my volume to max and can hear it ok, but turn on a fan or background noise and I find it a touch too low to hear. People on PC's won't have this problem. Thanks, love the channel so far!

    A couple of friends and I went hiking up from Part Cove at Apache lake soon after a rain and found this INCREDIBLE waterfall that was gushing down and we could walk behind it. Long hike, but SO worth it! You follow the dry riverbed up from the cove and start hiking up and to the right. No trails, so it's make your own. Damn it was awesome!!!!!!! Wish I had the video to show you, but the guy that has it got into,,,, drugs,,,, so I don't speak with him anymore. But man I wish I could get my hands on that video.
