Love seeing you go on all your amazing adventures. Having been down that river over 50 times I know it well. Those cabins housed dam site workers back in 1911. They were going to build a dam there at Coal Creek rapid. Camped on that beach a lot and it was always amazing. Really like the way they have stayed intact all these years. I didn't know there was a trail to it though. Keep up with your adventuring.
You’re only 5’3”? You pull a lot of punch for a tiny Huss. Been marathon viewing your library of videos again today. Great job, I find them extremely NON-boring.
Most likely a line cabin being that it is cattle country. And it was most likely a duplex as you said. A couple of cow boys would hang out there to take care of the cattle. They would keep their horses in the corral and pack their supplies in. The antlered petros are all about food. As in, this place has food! At least that's the way I understand it anyway. Great documentary as usual WH... Finally a place I haven't been LOL...
To partially address your question about when these structures were built, take a look at the nails they used. "Square" cut nails were used from the early 1800's until ca. 1890. Thereafter, the "round" wire nails (what you now buy at your local hardware store) came into general use. The door hinge you observed was likely machine (not hand) made.
Looks like you have found the Johnson Ranch House in Grand (County) Utah. Found it on The US Dept of Interior National Park Service/National Register of Historic Places Register Form OMB #1024-0018. NPS Form 10-900 has 46 pages of interesting info on this place. Too bad the location is a flood zone! Maybe that pipe piece was for irrigation. They tried growing fruit trees & failed! Gotta love the old LDS community. They never gave up trying new things to tame the land & feed their huge families! Section 8 page 18 has info about Florenz Aubert...he & his decedents were sheep farmers & held grazing permits between 1930 up until 2000!
Nice, and Jack and I visited old cabins , and went into one where light came through . I saw a limb that was Loaded with Wood Ticked. I pulled like 6 ticks from his neck. So be carful Shara.
Okay WH, I got notified as soon as this video was published (yes, I am a subscriber - you were my first. lol). I immediately got involved in other stuff, had to go to the store, cooked and ate dinner and then was on the phone for hours. It is now almost midnight and I am about to watch the video. I know I am going to like it. There are lots of people doing abandoned places and travelogues; but, you show respect for others in your videos and respect for place. You showed respect for the homeless people in the abandoned club in Vegas and you show respect to the abandoned places you visit. You follow the hikers rule, take only pictures and leave only footprints. That is why I watch your videos and I look forward to many more.
Another AY McDonald gem! A family owned business est 1856 still in operation in Dubuque Iowa. BTW they loved your Paoha Island find- called it priceless!!
Nice petroglyphs. Early peoples liked to make glyphs of game animals to pay homage to them as spirit creatures as well as to indicate their own passage in the territory. People make art to celebrate what is important to them as well as to note the beauty they appreciate.
WH -- You didn't hike far enough , another 8 miles would have brought you to the Historic Mc Pherson Ranch -- N 32* 22' 48.75'' - W 110* 00' 57.32'' -- Modern Ranch buildings , several Rock & Adobe buildings , Corral , etc. . Beautiful spot & very interesting . The hike is a rough one , easiest way to reach it is by rafting the river .
Truly outstanding work, you bring the history and mystery of the southwest to us. Just think, on that piece of canyon you would have seen William Lewis Manly and his intrepid companions float by in 1849 on his way to trial and heroism in Death Valley!
Hey there! I started watching your vids a couple of weeks back..really enjoy all your adventures! I live up here in British Columbia Canada. Rock on girl!
Being bored sitting at home waiting for a package, I played detective and did a little google hunt on your doorpost grafity to see if it could be real or not. I think it is real. I think it says Florenz Aubert, Price utah., november 28 1949. Florenz Aubert was born in 1894 in france and lived at 314 1st east street in Price, Carbon UT with his wife Grace Aubert(*1998 france) and his two sons lawrence (*1921) and August(*1923) and his 2 daughters Margaret(*1928) and Julia(*1934). He died in 1954 at the latter day saints hospital in salt lake city after a 4 week stay suffering from lung cancer. i can't find any deat certificates on the rest of the family so I guess the sons and daughters could be still alive who knows.
WH, just finished the video. Thought it was hilarious that you mentioned the hikers motto. Glad to see you using hiking boots and the stick. Sorry that you didn't give us more insight into the crazy Canadians. Another good one.
"Hayduke was here"...a reference to the fictional hero of Edward Abby's novel "The Monkey Wrench Gang"... Wonderhussy, you REALLY should read this book! Love your videos, thanks for what you do!
So everyone watched it twice for hickey reasons? Great exuberant tour. So glad you have some PPE and practical shoes. Sorry about your injuries. Some of those stone in the walls would weigh over 1,000 lbs. Alcohol makes me walk funny too. Anyone ever go up on top of those mesas? Sunscreen is your friend.... Tan lines?
Nice video as usual. I gotta get me one of those hike and strikes. I can't believe u tried it out on yourself. Brave lady. U have a wonderful spirit. No phony bologna your real ,true to yourself. I luv learning bout history of places. Your sister's dog looks a lot like one I used to have, she was a smart dog. Keep the adventures coming I really enjoy them
Just a comment helps me out with heel blisters. When you tie your boots use the iron bar technique. Basically it works this way, the first place where your boots have unfixed eyelets do a double over hand knot so you cross them twice, then as you move up you cross them once. but what it does is anchor your heel. I will re comment with a link to a video.
Funny story. I am a guy and I was walking outdoors it was 110 degrees at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix and some stuffed shirt guy came along and told me I had to put my shirt on. Literally I was about to pass out from the heat.
the Dubuque pipe fitting is called a Hi pressure reducer . It flows in the 10" fat end at 20-30 pounds of pressure and is restricted to less than half its size down to 3 3/4 will bring that Hi flow into a 140-180 pound blasto kit that peels down .mountain sides in mud...mud full of gold and a reward for knocking down so many tons a day as the fixes price of gold stayed at $35 dollars an ounce for decades and regimes. Till Carter and before he left in 79 silver went from a standard $3-5 Oz.and went to $50. I was positioned well I was hauling tons of it and stocking hotel cabinets cruising bars and naked ladies lined up to hand me $20s $50s and C-notes galore.And when the spike hit I was holding suitcases of it in fine art form. So the Indians dumped millions in.silver and gold stolen from Spaniards and our own forces and civilians butured robbed burned out. Vitirio was King of Texas New Mexico maybe a little az. even swamps to the east. He was boundless and he was a tactician and .new every advantage till between $ 1-3 billion in gold remains hidden some on a bomb practice range that guarantees if you are in the area to steal you will blown to smithereens. I think there's a deal with the Indians as when they needed gold and silver it came out for the jewelry trade...it still does. I was Crocodile Dundee of the reservations son. I saw a few things and sat with enigmatic shamans who don't reveal themselves. Old chief's wise to all the necessities of his tribe and vigilant not to let the next forget they are the witness the observers of the passing parade. Unaffected desiring nothing but happiness collectively. And demanding it like a little kid who wants to play. Not even the old ones forget how to effortlessly pull practical jokes that test mind and soul. and leave everyone laughing. Then they tell you who you are so you never forget because the whites parents they forget to tell their babies who they are. As no one told us but hid true histories and purposes most of us acting mistakenly thinking we could swear an oath to freedom which is America's religion ...and we were used to promote agendas that were not fair were not ethixcal to slowly build a wall of technology around an errant race of wildly varying IQs and a steady diet of sex and violence and violent sex and well the monkeys were in charge. screaming primates in a big blue zoo planet. so the age of excess is over. We would all do well to elect an Indian wise man president . But Trump is so cool maybe we lose the flouride and chem trails we don't deserve mercury in our kids vaccine and the UN resolution to restrict cannabis as it's a worthless purveyor of perverts and criminals so they got Nixon the crook to pretend to be a hard line law in order guy why he greenlighted disease profits and 90 million cancer infected doses of polio vaccine. So don't think if yer black yer a special target for abuse. This disease profit scheme hired hit men to suppress the many cures for cancer and.sold us chemo poison and radiation burning as the only way to kill this mysterious disease we must collect billions. Hell Royal Rife had a variable frequency generator you could tune to kill any pathogens any disease. I used it ...it worked . So suppression across the board and the new Rockefeller Allopathic chemical enslavement medicine approved itself as the experts and became drug schills meeting quotas for sex from expensive hookers hired as high paid salespersons. It's the truth. So I'm glad my grandfather didn't live to see this shit he would have died of a broken heart the way this country was run
Wonder if that pipe helped pump in water maybe. The river had to be quite a bit cleaner back when that was built I'd hope. Those boots sound nice and comfy, they're broke in for the next hike. =D
3 and1/4 like, is the width, No. 10 could be the model or line of the pipe..c likely cast iron galvanized and threaded with a removable plug for cleaning... very similar to the water piping from our 1800's water tower and ranch homestead here in rhe Cascadia area of northern California. Happy Trails. Paulson, good research dude !
Last September I camped just outside of Moab in the green river. I think it was called Goose island. It was in between the Canyon with the Green river right there and very close to Moab. I think I will be back this coming June.
Those rock walls along the trail was probably to prevent erosion. That was mostly likely a road that the trail follows. So they could get their wagon down to the love shack.
Another very interesting vid! The stone cabin and root cellar was fascinating. I wonder how they got the lumber in. By the river I'm thinking. Painful looking boo boo from your encounter with a tumble weed.
That white substance is probably akali and not salt. In Colorado here where I live we have that in abundance in low laying areas that has moisture. Hope this helps. Please keep making your videos, I really enjoy them. Have a great day!!
it was a gravity reduction pipe in which pressure is increased by smaller diameter reducers screwed into the line for pressure mining hydraulics or just raising water pressure.
That was a plumbing fixture. The company that made it built their foundry in the late 1880's they are still in business today. My guess is they had some kind of system built to bring water from the river. It would be interesting to look around to see if there are any pipes left to see how they did it.
The iron pipe you found started its life in Dubuque Ia from the A.Y. Macdonald company. it was more than likely used in a pump of some sort bringing water from the river. at any rate the A.Y. McDonald Co. is still in business today if interested go to google type in A. Y. McDonald Mfg. Co. been family owned since the beginning more than 160 years ago.. Andrew Young McDonald was an immigrant from Scotland who also fought in the civil war. who started it all
Next time you see that white stuff out in the desert next to water. You should smell see if you smell some surfer or reach down and feel the water. Might be a natural warm springs.
OK, Wonderhussy...I questioned why you had on flip-flops in another video. Thanks for the explanation. There are drawbacks to hiking boots. They can be uncomfortable for some people because of the shape of their feet. They take time to beak in which can be uncomfortable. And for sure they cause swelling around the ankle area after a long hike. So pluses & minuses like many things.
The metal fitting made by Morrison Co. is cast metal. Meaning the steel or metal was melted and poored into a cast to give it its shape. Things aren't made like that anymore. It's becoming a lost art form
Here is a tip to avoid blisters and sore feet when hiking: Wear a nylon sock(thin like pantyhose) inside your normal sock. It will decrease the friction on your skin.
I know this video was uploaded a long time ago but I just watched it, I noticed the water got very shallow I think this was a pack mule outpost, boats would bring supplies as far as they could by river then unloaded to these buildings then pack mules would carry the supplies the rest of the way into the town, I’m a new subscriber love your videos in the early 1980s I lived in Las Vegas and in Phoenix I would love to go into the desert and find stuff like you do keep the videos coming
I think that dude was from Price, Utah. It's not really that far away and kind of a straight line South East (from my recollection, anyway) :) Glad to see you actually wearing boots :P
Going back and watching all of your Utah videos, thanks!
Love seeing you go on all your amazing adventures. Having been down that river over 50 times I know it well. Those cabins housed dam site workers back in 1911. They were going to build a dam there at Coal Creek rapid. Camped on that beach a lot and it was always amazing. Really like the way they have stayed intact all these years.

Thanks again you too babe for sharing life with enthusiasm and passion for the wild side
You’re only 5’3”?
You pull a lot of punch for a tiny Huss.
Been marathon viewing your library of videos again today.
Great job, I find them extremely NON-boring.
It's good to see some of these places being protected! Love the rugged landscape out there!
Most likely a line cabin being that it is cattle country. And it was most likely a duplex as you said. A couple of cow boys would hang out there to take care of the cattle. They would keep their horses in the corral and pack their supplies in. The antlered petros are all about food. As in, this place has food! At least that's the way I understand it anyway. Great documentary as usual WH... Finally a place I haven't been LOL...
It is so amazing that there is grass growing inside the cabin. How wonderful. Such a great video!
Nature always takes over.

..... Like your smile..... Love your style.....!!
You're a trip WH! So glad you dodged all the axe murderers marauding in the canyons!
Not sure what the iron canister was used for but the #10 is likely the gauge of the steel that was forged. :)
Nice petroglyphs. Early peoples liked to make glyphs of game animals to pay homage to them as spirit creatures as well as to indicate their own passage in the territory. People make art to celebrate what is important to them as well as to note the beauty they appreciate.
Hiking wonder. Another fine take us along trip. You’re a great tour guide. Thank you
Glad to see you carrying the Hike & Strike!
Fell asleep watching youtube videos at work again. Happens to me a lot. I wonder how common this is?
Thanks Wondering Wonder Hussy, Glad you hiked the ten miles so I could see the cabins. Saved me a hike, I will take the raft if I go.
Did a 6 day rafting trip down the green. Nefertiti was our last camp ground on day 5. Beautiful place.
Nice job on the video Sara looking forward to more
I like the story about how you scraped your legs. It made me laugh.
WH -- You didn't hike far enough , another 8 miles would have brought you to the Historic Mc Pherson Ranch -- N 32* 22' 48.75'' - W 110* 00' 57.32'' -- Modern Ranch buildings , several Rock & Adobe buildings , Corral , etc. .

Thanks for the all the awesome videos!
G.W.Hayduke was a character in Edward Abbeys books.
Well, it's great to see that you have some decent hiking boots. Well done.
I found this about the Desolation canyon of the Green river system. Originally homesteaded by the Seabolt family in the early 1900s...Great video,
Great video. Envy you on your great adventures. Keep up the great work.
I always get stoked to see a wonderhussy adventure in my feed.
Rob Bennett semi?
Hey there! I started watching your vids a couple of weeks back..really enjoy all your adventures! I live up here in British Columbia Canada. Rock on girl!
Another great Video !

That was fun. Good video. Glad to see you have some self defense on you and some good hiking boots. Rock on, chickadee!
I like going on your hikes .....I love the Chilli Frito Pie .

Great video as always.
"Hayduke was here"...a reference to the fictional hero of Edward Abby's novel "The Monkey Wrench Gang"... Wonderhussy, you REALLY should read this book! Love your videos, thanks for what you do!
The A.Y. McDonald piece was an old part to a hand pump for water
So everyone watched it twice for hickey reasons? Great exuberant tour. So glad you have some PPE and practical shoes. Sorry about your injuries. Some of those stone in the walls would weigh over 1,000 lbs. Alcohol makes me walk funny too. Anyone ever go up on top of those mesas? Sunscreen is your friend.... Tan lines?
You're so brave wonder!! Be careful sweets!! Love your vids.

they were really neat!

I love this world,and you also need love wh,thanks for sharing life with enthusiasm and passion for life

God damn, I know what you are saying about after a long hike then putting you feet in the river, feels so good!!
+Jay Stone yes! Best feeling in the world
I emjoy your videos
love your videos
you always show some really nice videos keep it up really good stuff
Just picked up a pair of Hoka One One's myself. Pretty good boot, more of an off road running shoe.Anyway, I enjoy your videos!
Another very interesting vid! The stone cabin and root cellar was fascinating. I wonder how they got the lumber in. By the river I'm thinking. Painful looking boo boo from your encounter with a tumble weed.
That white substance is probably akali and not salt. In Colorado here where I live we have that in abundance in low laying areas that has moisture. Hope this helps. Please keep making your videos, I really enjoy them. Have a great day!!
Always look for the outhouse and the trashpile ! I think the iron thing is the top of a water well pump .
it was a gravity reduction pipe in which pressure is increased by smaller diameter reducers screwed into the line for pressure mining hydraulics or just raising water pressure.
Nice boots!
Yep extra inch is always good!
I luv ur vids!!!
That was a plumbing fixture. The company that made it built their foundry in the late 1880's they are still in business today. My guess is they had some kind of system built to bring water from the river. It would be interesting to look around to see if there are any pipes left to see how they did it.
thats what i was thinking,"pits" ! thank you ...
Ram pump?
Awesome Video! could have been a Trading Post back then...! that heavy item could be a 3 1/4 inch Iron Pipe!
HAYDUKE ! was a character in "edward abbey`s"{monkey wrench gang} y'all have to read that one for sure....
And the GW stands for George Washington!
been up in this area....awesome place.
Frito Pie.....
The iron pipe you found started its life in Dubuque Ia from the A.Y. Macdonald company. it was more than likely used in a pump of some sort bringing water from the river. at any rate the A.Y. McDonald Co. is still in business today if interested go to google type in A. Y. McDonald Mfg. Co. been family owned since the beginning more than 160 years ago.. Andrew Young McDonald was an immigrant from Scotland who also fought in the civil war. who started it all
David Paulson This is exactly what I came to the comment section for - thankyou so much!
Y'all beat me to it.
my only question.... were you still topless when you spotted the rafters? and hopefully you spotted then first? lol
David Paulson --shallow high schoolish dork...da were you topless, ohhh
Well done, sir.
Monkey toes, just like my girlfriend's, she wears flip-flops 24/7 as well.
Love your channel.
Thumbs Up !
You ever get into Wyoming? Love your vids, you find some awesome sites.
Do a longer vlog on that walking stick.....sounds cool.....and deadly
Epic.
I luv Utah!
Next time you see that white stuff out in the desert next to water. You should smell see if you smell some surfer or reach down and feel the water. Might be a natural warm springs.
OK, Wonderhussy...I questioned why you had on flip-flops in another video. Thanks for the explanation. There are drawbacks to hiking boots. They can be uncomfortable for some people because of the shape of their feet. They take time to beak in which can be uncomfortable. And for sure they cause swelling around the ankle area after a long hike.
So pluses & minuses like many things.
I think that isolation ment safety, just didn't want to be bothered by people, I wonder if I could live like that.
The metal fitting made by Morrison Co. is cast metal. Meaning the steel or metal was melted and poored into a cast to give it its shape. Things aren't made like that anymore. It's becoming a lost art form
Shoes won't hurt your feet/toes IF they fit
Man I have long toes too... I feel ur pain...
Here is a tip to avoid blisters and sore feet when hiking:
Wear a nylon sock(thin like pantyhose) inside your normal sock.
It will decrease the friction on your skin.
I know this video was uploaded a long time ago but I just watched it, I noticed the water got very shallow I think this was a pack mule outpost, boats would bring supplies as far as they could by river then unloaded to these buildings then pack mules would carry the supplies the rest of the way into the town, I’m a new subscriber love your videos in the early 1980s I lived in Las Vegas and in Phoenix I would love to go into the desert and find stuff like you do keep the videos coming
I think that dude was from Price, Utah. It's not really that far away and kind of a straight line South East (from my recollection, anyway) :) Glad to see you actually wearing boots :P
Dubuque Iowa was on the cast steel tube (water screen I'm assuming) and the hinge was stamped steel but love your videos ;)
17:00 check valve for a well to pump water.
