I think we could have shortened the hike if we knew a better route. But it's an 8 Mile minimum. *That last room which I crawled down in the crack of was unbelievably narrow and rough. Would never do that without these guys.
RUclips has come out and said comments don't have any weight to the algorithm... but.... they aren't being fully truthful .... what it does is it brings people back to the video multiple times to argue in the comments... driving views up and making it seem like they keep coming back, and can drive their individual retention beyond 100% .. and that's where the algorithm weight comes from.
Perhaps that's true. But I never give it much thought. Like, we don't need Channel growth for views. We like that people like it and we like the people interacting comment. But this is not something I encourage.
Thank you! Productions been a little slow. RUclips isn't really my life priority but we do have some videos getting ready for the main channel. They should be sufficiently terrifying. I think it's our best work ever I don't know if the algorithm will care but eventually... it should be pretty cool.
Since there's no underwater caves near where we live, I have absolutely no frame of reference for what that's like. But sometimes our caves fill up with water and I've crawled through them without diving equipment. That seemed fun enough but I wouldn't want to do it on the regular. Cuz it's dirty and cold.
"Easy to find" is not a term I have ever heard for caving in this area. Where at in Oregon? Southern Oregon is mostly small Limestone caves, which are extremely difficult to find. There's also a large lava bed in Northern California. Those are easy to find but a bit of a drive. Mid and East Oregon is generally lava, and your best bet for locating caves on Google. And how far are you willing to travel? It's a big state. Most of the caves are private. Public caves include the Oregon Caves as well as a few in the Bend Oregon area. Those can be found on google. Most public caves close on November 1st for winter for bats and snow reasons. In fact most caving in the Pacific Northwest becomes difficult right about now as temperatures drop and the caves are below snow levels in the mountains.
@@EvenDarker thanks for your reply, I will be driving across the state into Washington, following highway 1, but I didn’t think about the snow tbh. I will do a bit of research on google, though I think Northern California might be the best bet.
Struggling to breathe UP there. This is after 15 miles of hiking and at 2 miles high atmosphere. So yeah the air is a little thin but not because we're in a cave.
That really is quite a cave discovery. But then, the hike is a “quite” too.

I'm from Portugal and I love to watch your videos, I'm very claustrophobic and you my hero man👏👏
This deserves such much more interaction and view's overall I can't believe it doesn't
Thanks! We don't mind. We're just down here havin a good time.
True dedication right here. Very pretty scenery!
Thank you. A lot of people like caves and caving but very few people are doing the "work."

Man, I checked your main channel and saw you haven't uploaded in months! Scared the hell out of me, so happy to see you're still alive and doing well!

I love your content. Any day you're still alive is a good day.
We may stretch the definition of “alive” at times.
I. Admire you guys so much.
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you. We appreciate viewers and nice comments.
So was this 15 miles both ways? Looked kinda like a head banger cave at some locations.
Dog, it was almost 8 each way, across swamps full of downed timber, and steep brushy Mt Adams. It was a dark to dark day.
@@billsanders9387 That's one heck of a day right there.
You're still alive 🤜🏻🤛🏻
We can never die
16:23 Woww - what an interesting landscape.
When your butt is too big, think skinny thoughts and puuussshh 😂😂😂
We hiked 15 miles for this or he hiked 15 miles for this
19:35 Always keep a compass with you.
would you ever do underwater cave diving? it seems a lot more dangerous.

13:37 Yeah - that's fn knobbly. 😆
The floor IS lava
There's a couple caves out here that are erosional caves below the lava field. And there it's the ceiling is lava.
I love you guys videos they are awesome you guys have some huge balls to go in them tight ass caves and tunnels 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Pretty neat.
Hey guys, I am visiting Oregon next month, what easy to find/fun cave would you recommend me? I am very experienced but never done lava caves..

to be fair, sourdough IS the best sandwich bread
With PB & J?
@@EvenDarker okay maybe not THE best...
Sorry for asking
Why did you stop posting on the other Chanel?
Because I've been sick.
We did explain that in a video on the other channel. I don't know if anyone watches it or doesn't care.
@@EvenDarker Oooh sorry , Quick recovery bro . I pray God give you and your son better health . Quick recovery
Quick recovery! Thanks. 2 years so far. Getting to exercise the most important lesson I learned caving; patience.
Why did you stop posting on your other channel?
There's a video on the main channel explaining called "injury update."
Where’s Jacob been lately ?
I don't know. Probably school. I'll go find him on Christmas break.

Do you guys ever use oxygen? Sounds like your struggling to breath down there.
Struggling to breathe UP there.

@@EvenDarker ahh okay I get it.
