Abandoned & Forgotten Places
Documenting abandoned mines like never before!
Let's take abandoned mine exploring to the next level!
With your support you can help make this the best abandoned mine exploring channel on RUclips!
Shot entirely in 4K! ...so, turn up those video settings!
On this channel we go deep... REALLY DEEP into abandoned mines and tunnels all throughout the western United States. We researched some of the harder to find mines and hiked or 4x4 back into them to explore and reveal their hidden secrets. Many of these remote locations are filled with cool artifacts, antiques and unique geology that will have you guessing as to why the old prospectors worked so hard to find gold, silver, and other minerals.
A&FP moves just a bit slower as compared to other mine exploring channels. Gly discusses why the miners chose these sites and he points out the geology and minerals that got them excited. Veins of quartz filled with gold and silver made many men lose sleep in the 1800’s and early 1900’s and modern prospecting still does to this very day.
DANGERS? Oh yes, there’s allot of dangers associated with old mines. Un-exploded dynamite, blasting caps, bad air, bats, spiders, and snakes all find their home in abandoned mine shafts and tunnels. Oh, and let’s not forget rotting timbers, flooded passages and collapsing rock!
Gly takes abandoned mine exploring seriously with all the proper safety equipment, training, and experience necessary to do this activity as safe as possible but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a bit of fun along the way. “Gly”, your host and his band of crazy characters “Old Bob” (Gly’s Jeep), “Quackers” (Gly’s duck) and “Bobbie” (Gly’s hula girl) are sure to brighten your day with their comments and silly antics. Heck, they may even give you a chuckle or two.
Just like Saturday morning cartoons before the internet was invented, Abandoned and Forgotten Places uploads each Saturday at 7:00AM PST. (that’s 10:00AM for you eastern folks) so don’t forget to click that subscribe button and bell icon to receive notifications of new episodes!
Please LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT! All these things help grow our channel and your financial support helps us find new locations and helps put fuel into “Old Bobs” tank. Old Bob, thanks you!
Ok, now for the ugly stuff...

“Gly”: Happy July 4th everyone and thank you for helping make this channel a huge success! I’m really happy you enjoyed this series and I’m grateful to all of you who told your family and friends and helped the channel reach 20,000 subscribers. I’ll do my best to keep taking you to interesting locations, thank you so very much! Have a great day! 💥 🧨 🧨 💥
Happy 4th of July, Gly and have fun exploring.
38:30 Amen. Thank you Gly. :'-) Happy 244th, America!
GLY.....i actually watched WANDERHUSSY's video with BOB the jeep in it...she wasnt sure if she wanted to run into yall..but youre a nice guy..here is the video
ruclips.net/video/y5Kgo3OtU-o/видео.html
that would be cool if both of you guys did a collaboration..
Buddy, you scare the bejesus out of me knowing you're filming rather than hanging on for dear life. I've worked some heights before but always with safeties, fall restrictors, etc, and STILL had as much nerve sweat as effort sweat. I've presumed you're not hand held but if not PLEASE get something helmet or body mounted. Hell, I don't necessarily think it's a bad idea to carry a few replacements for the rungs and a claw hammer for those damn ladders. It's REALLY hard to tell the condition before actually needing to trust them. And asking your friend "hand me that boulder" made me chuckle. Good move of course but still lol'd
That camera distortion is litteraly what being on mushrooms looks like
🤣
facts
can confirm this is a true statement
I was honestly thinking I was spontaneously tripping lol
This is true. Didn't realize it until I read your comment, but you're right. So glad I don't do things of that nature anymore.
A very touching prayer for those miners, may they forever rest in peace.
Amen.
Holdup bro I gotta rest I'm tired af from being dead

This guy is unbelievable. He’s risking his life every time he enters theses abandoned mine. This is only my second episode is WOW. That’s all I have to say. Real Heart pounder
I wish I had videos of every mine I've been in. We didn't have small digital camera's like we do today...
Better him than me.
It's my second episode too!
Gly is actually very safe compared to many other utube mine explorers.
My second video too lol
How in the world could those miners dig straight up hundreds of feet like that???
They were incredible people!!!
I find it quite interesting how the camera starts to develop a very strange glitch right at the place where the men where reported to have died. It's probably just a coincidence but strange none the same.
I noticed that also. You're not wrong though. You have the right idea
I thought it was the lsd acting up
Tommyknockers..
Coincidence lol nothing more 😅
I immediately began re-watching once it began to do that, and paused to check the comments. I share your sentiments and observation, never know - just really interesting to say the least! :O
Ghosts messing with the camera.
but on a serious note, ive never seen camera trouble like that before. ever.
I thought I had accidental dropped acid I had to pause the video and pull up another one to make sure lol
Its kinda distracting, and kinda awesome lol
@@RyannTM I thought the same thing, went into the comments to figure it out
I know! At 19:20 the ghost interference was so strong! The ghosts energy they put off makes a camera look all wavy like water. They say ghosts do it purposely, when they are near.
@@ghostlaboratory1683 its not ghosts, he accidentally switched on hyperlapse, and thats why its looking all funny. Apparently it's a good example of how it is to trip on shrooms.
I'm not a religious person but that prayer was very touching, I don't think I've seen many mine explorers on RUclips doing that for the lost souls in these old accidents, really awesome. Hopefully somebody puts up a memorial for those men eventually, it really should have been done long ago.
I agree. Not a religious person myself, but rememberance, compassion/empathy, and respect for your fellow man like Gly showed, is always a good thing
Did you notice the orb or probly dust at the bottom of the screen right after he finished the prayer. Coincidence?
I am a religious person, and it means well for these dead people. I hope someone prayed for them while they were alive.....
@@Snizake2012 he’s in a dusty mine so yes confidence.
@@FSXflyermaster i figured but was a kind of a trip lol
May GOD bless anyone that had to go under ground to make a living ....
To the ones that never came out my prayers are for you to rest in peace..
I am a proud coal miners daughter. They worked mainly on their knees and crawled along hunched back. It was also very warm in the tunnels so the miners worked topless. Because of some gasses off the coal, you were searched for matches and cigarettes or a pipe before you went down. the miners had to use a pick axe to get the coal of the seams. Later the started to use drills which made the work easier and faster. Thankfully there wasn't any dangerous cave ins when my dad was underground. When he worked the night shift, my mother was always worried.
Most coal mines are actually really cool and average about 68 degrees. I have heard about a few really hot mines but thankfully I never had to work in 1 of those. Respect to your dad
Coal sucks. So unhealthy. Respect and prayers but please don't promote coal
I'm a huge fan Ms Lynn
@@MaxRamos8 bro stfu
@@MaxRamos8 Coal is good,you will be glad of it one day,dont drink so much kool aid,..
Excellent explore, Gly, though a bit somber and sad. Reminds me of thirty years ago, took a tour into the Bobtail Mine in Central City, CO. The guide took us in 1/4 mile, told us that about 100 feet further there was a vertical shaft that went down 1400' below the adit level, and that at the lowest level one day they blasted into an underground lake that rapidly flooded the entire mine up to about a foot below the adit level and killed 14 miners who were down there. They brought in two 3000gpm diesel pumps and pumped 24/7 for three months without lowering the water level even an inch. The miners are still down there, and that haunted me for quite a long time. You never know when it's your time. Stay safe, bud.
“Gly”: Yes, your correct. The story of this mine was a somber one but it really needed to be told. Maybe it’ll inspire someone to erect a proper memorial outside the mine someday.
Abandoned and Forgotten Places Thank you for telling it! They must have had a decent idea where the men had been working, but it must have become dangerous for the rescuers; looks like they gave it a hell of a try to recover, but must have been working too far over in the stope. Pity.
Wait ... so, basically ground water filled in to a depth of 1399 ?
vlepo2000 Yes. According to the guide, it filled to that level in less than one day. There were extensive workings at 100 foot intervals all the way down; the miners didn't have any chance at all to get out.
That's roughly seven hundred seventy-seven million gallons of water they pumped out, and roughly what Bill Gates made per month in 2011.
Where did they put all that water? Also has anyone dove it?
This guy went 400ft underground to pray FOR lost souls, how can anyone dislike this video? crazy people lol
maybe they just don't like the part where he travel to the smooth sand and added some track marks of his veicle?
@@coloradohikertrash9958 good original joke
what is amazing to me is all lumber and materials had to be hand carried down in this mine
The amount of material just completely baffles me
How much it would all cost ,looks like new
Everything about these mines is just mind blowing. The amount of work put in to shoveling out the dirt is unfathomable. It doesn’t look like there’s a rail cart system in there
@@LegendLength If you pay close attention to all the timber that has been used, it is all tightly grained with zero knots. This ensures maximum load bearing with minimal defects and the only way to be sure of that is through milling. I wouldn't be surprised if the larger beams are actual heart cores. So aside from all the expense of the machinery and tools required you're looking at a small fortune it top grade lumber as well, which is likely why much of it has remained in relatively pristine condition as well where moisture has not come into contact and caused rot.
good job my friend ...... thanks for doing that for the men that lost their lives ......that timbering you saw with the lagging going in at an angle is how you quickly re enforce a drift or if you are driving a drift through soft and unstable ground ....I got a cat that makes those noises when you were coming up the incline
“Gly”: Thanks Jeff! I was trying to reproduce the sound Smurf’s make when there trying to make more Smurf’s. Lol
That timbering method is called "spiling" and the angled lagging timbers themselves are "spiles".
Meanwhile there are women protesting and yelling KILL ALL MEN! "We live in a society"
V u pp i7 i7
Tommy knockers
as an ex miner in uk that was a lovely moving tribute to the poor souls that lost there lives in the mine. as you were climbing back out the drift/incline you definately sounded like a squirrell on speed lol. love your videos keep up the good work and thank you.. God bless and stay safe.
I can’t imagine the hustle and commotions that were happening as they were trying to rescue those men. Everywhere a piece of wood could fit it was cut and placed
I'm enjoying your exploration immensely. I'm 75 now and not able to explore like that anymore. Thanks a lot for such a great video and I'll check out more
The production value of this show is insane. The sweeping drone and camera shots. I can hardly begin to think of how long making one of these would take
“Gly”: Thank you! Post production per video is on average 15 - 20 hours right now and that doesn’t include travel to site, filming, final rendering or uploading to RUclips.
Abandoned and Forgotten Places damn, we’re lucky you’re so dedicated!
Imagine that craved this out to dig
Wow. Hope you’re making the money you deserve for all that work you put in
To literally move mountains for your fallen brothers, god bless the souls that died and the ones that tried. Amen.
Thank you so much for posting this video, it helped tremendously with giving me closure for my uncle Jim who was a victim in this tragic accident. RIP uncle jimmy.
Oh no im sorry for your loss.. :(
No jimmies were killed in the mine according to the reports.
@@SQUAREHEADSAM1912 can you share us the report?
Why isn't there a grave marker with the miners names on it placed there and this is one mine that should be sealed permanently...
“Gly”: Well, it’s my hope someone will watch this series and do exactly that. These men need a proper memorial.
I was thinking the same thing the entire time i was watching this video. What a shame the mine owner doesn't put a marker in place with the names and birth dates to honer their graves ! That is their cemetery and their families deserve a place where they can go to honor their loved ones!
@@EXDAMDEM There is no marker, for this reason, every disrespectful idiot would try this, the owner should have him arrested for trespassing and endangering more lives especially if these idiots would have also died or hurt now the owner would be reliable. This whole area is being considered high risk because these clueless RUclipsrs don't give a crap about how this affects the community because they want to blow them closed the only have partial facts about the history of the mines or people involved. It wasn't long ago people got shot for less than this around here and I, for one, wish for that makes a comeback. Respect and common sense are not hard. The families of this man know where they can be honored and understand and understand why it is the way it is. Maybe they should have been actually asked before just assuming the dead needed a miracle and this guy was chosen or self-proclaimed to be the miracle when he is anything but. HONOR them by leaving them alone and made stay off peoples OWNED Claims
@@pattymcdarment1395 Harsh. Being an ex miner myself, If the men were removed and interred somewhere else, then this is just a mine. We held no particular reverence for a dusty hole in the ground. What you were saying is like: If so many people are killed on freeways, they should be shutdown as hallowed ground? No. Only if the men were not reclaimed. But then mines were never totally closed because of deaths. We miners all knew that.
@@pattymcdarment1395 Chiming in here 4 months later to say: who do you think you are? Apparently the only person in this comment section to have an issue with what was shown here. What exactly are you doing here anyway? If you don't like what he's doing, feel free to keep scrolling.
Those poor souls, atleast they didnt suffer. Seeing how that came to rest. Their bones would have been ground to bits
I believe you were much closer to the lost miners than you realize. Even though the picture quality went downhill, I noticed a "stain" that was almost black/dark brown coming from a rock to your right while you were in the tomb. It could be anything, but it was in the debris field on top of some seriously large support timber. Since you were below the collapse it is plausible that gravity did its thing with the blood. I also wondered from the looks of some of the supports of they had a partial collapse or warning sign and tried to reinforce the hanging wall because they knew they didnt have the time to get out before it all came down. The large beams were probably the rescue team, but when you were near the collapse up top there were a few smaller beams that looked snapped. Not removed. Lastly, it was a very humane thing of you to say a prayer for them souls lost. Much respect.
I have seen a lot of times that part and didnt find that rock you mentioned, can you share the minute of the video where you saw this?
@37:04 Our idea of "Safe zone" differs wildly. Me sitting here in front of my laptop watching this video is what I consider my "Safe zone".
Incredible! Great explore... and the "miners tomb" was just astonishing. Seeing the sheer amount of cribbing and how it was put in just shows us how hard they were trying to get to those lost souls. Thank you for documenting and sharing that incredible piece of history with us.
“Gly”: Thanks Paul!
I appreciate the heck out of your tenacity to carry on even in the face of real danger for entertainment and educational exploration purposes, much respect, rest in peace to those miners
Id be too terrified of just going into a mine in fear of collapse like that
This needs a proper memorial. That is essentially those men's grave. They should erect a memorial for them
I was thinking the same thing the entire time i was watching this video. What a shame the mine owner doesn't put a marker in place with the names and birth dates to honer their graves ! That is their cemetery and their families deserve a place where they can go to honor their loved ones!
Any Ark player would know that’s not camera distortion you’re just an artifact cave
He should watch out for megalos and bats
underrated comment lol
swamp cave???
Thanks for that series Gly, a fascinating insight into how these miners were desperate to get to those who lost their lives! and a nice final tribute to those lost soul,s, this nail biting series will be very difficult to follow!!
“Gly”: Thank you!
This was an amazing series. I really felt emotion when you entered their “tomb”. I appreciate the kindness and compassion shown to those lost souls. On a side note, I think a collab with Wonderhussy would be cool! Stay safe and thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
It’s such utter chaos down there, I can’t imagine how loud and terrifying collapses must be. That’s truly terrible.
Absolutely my favorite explore so far. God Bless those men's families and all those that searched for them. Thank you for bringing us their story!! Keep it up man, you make our evenings interesting, my kids and I watch your videos almost every week! Love Mr M and Randy as well!
One of the best series, I watched every episode with anticipation. Well done and nice memorial for the miners.
Fantastic ..
You have to have the balls of a brass monkey to crawl around those abandoned mines!
Again, the fur was standing up on the back of my neck when you headed into the collapse. Those poor guys. RIP Men!
Went hiking on a remote mountain with 3 of my friends last week and we started getting down way too late and it was pitch black in the forest. We were completely alone in the mountain with iphone flashlight lol , thankfully we manage to speed through/sprinting down the mountain and got out before midnight. That was the scariest moment of my life, can't even imagine what would it feel like going down an abandoned mine, so much respect!!!
First Time watcher and wow. Just can’t get enough. Thx again for risking it. Wow. Lol. Its breath taking. Would love to do such an Exploration.
RIP TO THE 3 miners.
I think we all had a minute of silence when you prayed for those 3 souls. Very touching. Glad you guys had a safe exploration in this mine, it was really cool, and yet somber. You da man!
Very good conclusion and history on this mine, May the miners that lost their lives RIP. Sharing on my FB page/ thanks again Gly and Mr. M.
Great mini series and in awe for all the work these miners did for their livelihood. Thank you for saying a prayer and leaving a memorial. RIP to the lost miners.
That is an amazing mine! Thanks for the tour Gly and for the prayer for the lost miners. May they Rest In Peace.
I had heard one of the miners quit a week prior to the collapse, due to safety concerns. Any comments? Very nice job! Love the work you've done so I don't have to.
“Gly”: You are correct. Actually, it was more than one that quit.
19:10 When the LSD starts kicking in...
Oh I thought I was the only one that seen that, lol
Lol
do to the iron and the earths magnetic field its messing with the camera
Lol
joshua rushold nerd jk jk thx for explaining
I have a tip for you. When climbing those mine ladders, don't step on the middle of the rings. Weak ones will break every time. Step on the ring close to the vertical wood. That will put weight on the part of the ring with the most support, not in the middle with no support. Left foot to the left end of the rung, right rung to the right end of the rung. I'll bet you won't break any more.
He always steps on the edges.
Same tip applies to wood and rope bridges too for anyone possibly wondering
12:53 he clearly does.
Have you seen the size of that guy there's no way he's going to step in the middle of one of those skinny ladders. I trust my wife with that guy.not you. What a stupid thing to say to him.
Thank you for the prayer for those men! A wonderful show of class and total respect for them! You are a good man!
One of the Best explores of all the channels ever including Franks, Thanks for your great offerings on ebay, glad I can help support your channel. Stay safe & have a Happy Holiday.
Your last walk out on the inclined walkway was so funny, I almost fell off my chair with laughter. I feel your pain my friend.
Excellent journey and sincere tribute to the list miners! Cool shout out to Wonder Hussy she is intriguing. Thanks again! Stay safe.
I sure appreciate what you people do and how you do it. It appears all you bring back is the pictures, super great. Keep up the good work, I look forward to more exploring where I cannot go.
Gly that almost two rungs too many huh!! Those Poor miners didn't have much of a chance Bless those lost !!, Thank's for the both of you climbing all around a very good video!!!; )
Great finale to this series! The RIP on the beam was a good clue to where the lost miners were. After all these years not much would be left to recover so it's just as well they were never found. Seeing the location or tomb was a like paying respects at a grave site. I think if Sarah (Wonderhussy) was with you on this trek she would have made a little memorial out of stones and a makeshift cross. There have been so many mine disasters over the years.. in 1972, 91 men died of carbon monoxide poisoning after a fire broke out underground at the Sunshine Mine in Kellogg, Idaho. However, there's not much information about the Silver Souls Mine complex or who the three men were who perished there.
“Gly”: Thanks! Contact me privately at abandonedandforgottenplaces@hotmail.com and I will send you the report about this mine. It’s something I cannot share here in the comments section as it will reveal its location.
This was nice to see you paying your respect and giving the prayer, I think all of us watching said amen after the prayer was said.
A prayer for the miners, rescuers and families. Thanks for the explore.
This bloke got hell strong balls to do this I would never do this kinda stuff well done
I really enjoyed this series, it was one heck of a mine. I look forward to Saturday mornings :)
One of your most interesting documentaries Gly. Loved every minute. Let’s have some more!!!!!
Gary.
Amazing series, you did a great job on these. I'm ready for the next adventure.
Just retired after 43 years of mining coal in Pennsylvania. I'd love to see some of those old mines in the West!
I will say after discovering and binge watching yours and other mine explorer channels for the last couple weeks, that this is by far the most tragic episode I've seen. Those two passages just evoke the mournful determination of the miners trying to recover their fallen comrades and the grief at the end when they realized they couldn't. I think even if this was your first video and you watched with the sound off and missed the 'RIP' on the board you'd be able to tell something terrible happened there. Greatest respect for your prayer.
u respond to a lot of people and are very active an seem to love what u do i miss this level of passion on RUclips man keep up the good work!
“Gly”: Thanks! Yeah, I enjoy interacting with my viewers. I think it’s just as important as producing a quality video.
Thank you for pointing out where the blocked off portion was and the woodworking changed. I'm glad i watched the rest of this mine and some of your other videos to further drill in the desperation and skilled patchwork they tried to do to save those men. Thank you for your prayer for them.
This is by far the best channel on RUclips. I need to stop trolling about colonoscopy stuff and showing more support.
I've never trolled a colonoscopy channel before. Hmmmm.... I wonder what that would be like? 😉
Hello Gly, first of congratulations on reaching 20 K that's awesome but richly deserved. Secondly, this was a very sad show being able to get to near where the miners last were before they sadly lost their lives, it does make one stop and pause and reflect on just how frail we are as a species and the very dangerous working conditions these brave souls turned up to work every day. I want to thank you for being respectful throughout this series and for trying to bring some closure to their fate. Thank you as always, take care. xx💖
“Gly”: Thanks Sue. Yes, this was a somber story but it was one that really needed to be told. With no memorial at the site those men deserved allot more than just a write up of there fate in a newspaper. Over 100 hours went into this project and I think it turned out pretty well without becoming too dark for the audience. I’m happy to bring there story to the world.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces I totally agree, they should have a bit more than a write up and I thought it was very touching that you made that cross and I prayed along with you for them. xxx
Love the effort you make to see the whole cave. Thank you
My grandfather was a miner and was in the sunshine mine fire here in kellogg idaho he saved a few but you got to have some balls to do what your doing in these old abandoned mines ! Mad respect to you for doing this :)
Awesome try, on trying to find the missing miners. It was a nice prayer to honor the missing miners
Wow, I was moved when I saw all that debris. They must have worked so incredibly hard to try to get to them in time, but ultimately failed. 😢
The timelapse on the incline was incredible !
Mountain climbing, inside a mountain !!!
Big Respect to you for going down there and also all my respect to all the Miners! I am too scared to go down in an abandoned Mine. R.I.P all Miners which already died with much hurt down there. ✝️
This was a great series, doing a deep dive into this mine complex, Gly! That was a seriously sketchy area under the collapse, but thanks for taking us there and thanks for the words you spoke for the miners who lost their lives. I love your channel, with your obvious enthusiasm for the explorations and the explanations of what we're seeing, and why the miners did what they did, when we tag along with you.
“Gly”: Thank you very much!
Awsome. You sounded like my dogs "squeaky toys" when you were coming out. Also, I watched Wunderhussy's episode when she put the card on your windshield... She was scared to death she was going to be caught.
I’m not religious but it’s nice that you said a prayer and showed respect, Ive seen a lot of exploration channels that would’ve just headed on down there for content alone and act pretty disrespectfully.
I love this channel... I grew up & live in a mining town, Sudbury Ontario, and since I was a kid I would never wanna be a miner! I get anxious just watching you in these places.
As my grandfather mined in the late 1800s and early 1900s, I find your presentations highly interesting. Please include the definitions for mining terms in future presentations .
He’s posted links to glossaries of terms if you look through comments of older videos
Lmao you killed me at the end that was funny, it’s late night and my two dogs were staring at me like what are you laughing at , good stuff, keep it up and I’ll keep watching :)
One of the most comprehensive coverages of an extensive mine with some worse than "sketchy" sections. This mine brings home how dangerous the work was & still is. Looking forward to your next series with anticipation.
“Gly”: Thank you!
Please do more of these where you are looking for mines that took workers or others. It is a great memorial to those workers as well as a warning for anyone wanting to take up mining or mine exploration. This is fun but it is definitely dangerous especially solo exploration. PLEASE DO MORE LIKE THIS!!!
I just started watching these videos, vey cool. Reminds me of the story my grandfather told me of when he worked in a silver mine. He was in a cave-in, the others perished, his back was broken. It took several days to dig him out, luckily there was enough air flow & I believe he said they used a generator to pump air in.
Thank you for the prayer for the souls of the men buried in this collapse !!
Impressed with your prayer. Nice guy. Live near the Virginia Mines and NC mines.
This is the best thing I've ever watched on RUclips. I was holding my breath every single second as I was watching this video and, to be honest, I was hoping that you would find something from those men. I had no idea how bad the situation was down there...anyway, I really admire what you do and I wish I could join you. One more fan is added on your list! Stay safe guys!
You never know where Wonder Hussy will show up! Thanks Gly for a seriously good exploration. I'm sure those miners heard your prayer!
Jack Lisiecki Wherever it is - it will be the middle of nowhere.
Hahaha omg this is SO worth watching until the end lol the out-of-breath rat run speed-up part is hilarious. 😂
Very touched by the prayer. Sweet and Simple.
Great Job and Bless you for the great Respect. Jim
So sad.first time I've kind of been in a mine.my husband worked in a coal mine .I was always worried about him.there was a cave in and 2 of his buddies were killed.so sad and dangerous too.❤🖒🇺🇸
Wonder Hussy,,,,,,,,I was watching the episode when she put that sticker there,,,,Now I watched you find it,,,How cool is That???
Thank you for having a stabilized camera and good lighting 🙏🏻
That was fun. Thank you for filming. That was an eye opener. I would love to follow you all around once!
May those men rest in peace and their souls live in heaven. Amen.
I can only hope that they knew the Lord and had salvation in their hearts if I may say it that way, they are definitely in eternity somewhere,call on the name of the Lord and you shall be saved that's as the gospel says
Loved the show tonight and I like the prayer there's not enough these days good to see. LOL you sounded like a chipmunk running from a coyote. My great grandpa followed by my grandpa and uncles were all copper miners in Upper Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula better known at the Copper Country or Range. Staring in the mid 1800s. Massive solid native copper deposits were mIned, The Indians were mining it in pits for over 2000 years and many shafts were sunk over these locations. Out croppings of pure native copper and float copper found laying on the ground from the ice age I've got some real nice chunks weighing a good 18lbs as well sticking tommys, oil wick and carbides. Problem is with lake superior winters leave most mines flooded leaving one or two levels open. Large stamp mills and smelters were built. The ingots and cakes were then loaded on ships down lake superior to Detroit for electric lines. Narrow Gauge and standard gauge rail lines hauled the loads to the mills with steam locomotives. Wish I could go back in time with a good video camera for a week. Steam powered railroads and wooden ships, too cool.
im from ontonogan michigan copper all over to find
I have always wanted to explore an abandoned mine but lack the experience and equipment. Thank you for taking us through these mines so that I can feel as if I was there. You do a great job showcasing these amazing human ant tunnels.
This was an amazing mini series. Thank you!
I have a lot of respect for miners. It’s sad to think that one morning they said goodbye to their families and didn’t realize that they’d never be back.
This breaks my heart. I so badly wish their bodies could be recovered and laid to rest.
“Gly”: I agree, but it would just be way to dangerous to remove that rubble.
Abandoned and Forgotten Places absolutely agree. I just wish that wasn’t the case. I’m sure they wouldn’t want others dying trying to recover their bodies. It’s sad none the less
I was going to ask if they managed to recover
Basically laid themselves to rest underneath that rubble. Im sorry to be so morbid about it but hopefully they're in a better place now.
Absolutely fascinating!!! Thank you!
I am so glad you said a prayer, When you said were entering the tomb I got a feeling that something should be said or done.
The time and effort involved in cutting into the area under the collapse and the amount of cribbing in that section was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. Stay safe out there, thanks again for sharing.
That is one of the best explores you have done Gly, even though slightly sad.
I cant even begin to imagine the bedlam and desperation the rescuers/ discoverers to try and get to their mates down there. All of that timber was put there in desperation.
That's a mine that should probably be closed off forever and a memorial erected outside to the mens memories.
“Gly”: I agree. That section should be permanently sealed and a proper monument erected.
I have to say you are fulfilling a dream of mine. I was born in the Rocky Mountains and I use to watch for old mine shafts every time we went for drives. They were always fascinating and I wanted to explore them. I went through an old Limestone mine once, but it had nothing on these. Definitely hooked on these videos. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through your explorations lol. Stay safe, friend.
The climbing back up the incline fast forward was hilarious. Sounded like a mouse trying to catch his breath. Great vid!
