- Not too much is known about this abandoned quarry. We believe it closed down around 1996 and everything here has been sitting ever since.

Tetanus jungle gym, that's a good one! :)
This is making me want to explore abandoned places
Me too. I'm ready to get in my car and go locate abandoned buildings....
I looked up the DEISTER MACHINE COMPANY. They're out of Ft. Wayne, Indiana with loyal pool of employees- 50% have been there 20 years or more. Company makes the shaking screen machines to separate rocks.
This reminds me of the quarry I grew up by in Yardley, PA. It wasn’t located in my town, but it reminds me of it.
Well done. Probably one of my favorite videos you have done. That barn was beautiful. Unbelievable craftsmanship in those old beams and stones. The house was a real shame. All of that vandalism done to that structure is just senseless. Very thought provoking subject matter. Couldn't help trying to imagine the people's lives who worked here and what it was like. This was a good one man. Thank you so much for the upload.
I’ve always said that if you’re gonna purchase a vintage crane.. make sure it’s a Bucyrus Erie.
They are da BEST!! 🤪🤣😂
bucyrus erie with the 3-53. simply rhymed, felt like typing ;)
I live in PA. Would like to know where this site is located. I used to work at South bend limestone quarry. Looking forward to your next adventure!
wondering the same thing myself, also in Pa
I live in Warsaw, below So Bend but hey, so close. Site is pretty amazing huh?
same here
I’d check out his friend Jay’s video and comments section, someone there may have disclosed the location- worth a check at least.
Edit: just saw a comment here saying the phone book on the video shows it’s in the Poconos, which at least cuts your search in half lol
@@xpan195 thank you
Cool engineering and love the old Ford in the trees.
Chris, I love your videos! Really well shot and edited. Plus you have a very pleasing delivery. I wish you much success and happiness👍.
Agreed !
The stone barn was beautiful! Those big old timbers!
I love that kind of stuff
On something like this place, have you ever thought about going to the nearest town to see if you could find someone who worked there and see if they would talk to you? Maybe they have pictures of it when it was in working condition. I love how you and Jay are so respectful of everything.
Good idea
That Bucyrus Eire 22B (possibly) crane would be worth quite a large sum now if it was in running condition.
Interesting place.
I have never understood why the states don’t insist private companies remove old equipment and restore the property when they are done with it. The machinery just sits, sometimes leaking fuels, oils, hydraulic fluids, chemicals, etc.
Absolutely agree. The tour is always fascinating. But the trash left behind is a disgrace.
because it's private property
9:11 CRAZY BIRD CALL
@@Marcel_Audubon I know of private properties that have been confiscated for other uses. It should be done in this and other cases too. There`s NO excuse for this corroding and rotting mess (please see my other comment above).
I do so believe this is a old sand mine where they extracted the minerals needed to make cement. I've watched other explorers visit it. Super cool place!
You are partially correct, the furnace is for making cement powder which comes from limestone, they also were making fly ash and a number of different size aggregate
There’s a Pike and Monroe County phone book on the desk in the office, so there’s a general location.
The Poconos region
Wow, that was an amazing explore. It had so much to look at. Thanks for the adventure!!!
Was a cool explore, have been there. It was a concrete plant at one time. Hung out with Jay at some meet ups.
Haven't seen any info online or on any of the paperwork that was there. Plus the sign says it was a sand and limestone quarry.
Check out the abandoned cement factory in Cementon, NY between Saugerties and Catskill
We will definitely look into it thanks
I have some pictures that I took when I found it
@@yankies0002 do you have an instagram that you could show me. I have the same name on instagram as my RUclips name.
Fantastic video. Thank you for showing us.
Thanks for showing us what we would never see otherwise. Just think their was people spent there life working there. Like I did Ford Motor Co. I enjoyed it.
Thank you for showing us this place and from those heights that some of us would NEVER climb!! 😁👍
My husband came in while I was watching this and started naming everything off lol.
He is a miner and says he could get this up and running in no time😉
Says with such small screens they might’ve been crushing quartz. It’s really popular for landscaping etc.
And where there’s quartz…
Oh well anyway now I’ve got him to agree to some adventures in Oregon (where we live) haha.
I put your show on just to light a fire in him to go adventuring. I grew up doing that, and I sorely miss it💗 so thank you for doing this old quarry😅😍
I don’t record or make videos, but if you know of any places in Oregon that I don’t, I would love some tips. Already been to the grist mill about 20 years ago. Have photos of my son at the time, sitting in a window of it, as well as one of me. Really great photos💗 we live in the Willamette valley if anyone wants to email me so we don’t attract a bunch of people, I would love it. I hate it when places get popular. I like to feel like I’m the first haha😅
First part of the video, that box to me, is what they call a "Shaker Table". It sifts through the larger material and drops the smaller material to the bottom.
The rotating thing after the truck scene, is called a "Trommel". It indeed rotates the material.
Near the end of the video, the "Box" is from what I understand, is part of a "Crusher Plant". They would dump loads of material into it and then with that motor running it would have little gears that would rotate and crush up the material.
Great information thanks!
Deister Machine out of Ft Wayne, IN made the shaker table. They're still in business and were founded in 1912...so that particular site isn't as old as that at least.
"Copy crose nest?" "Copy" "Yeaaaa, there's a 20 ft tree growing in the hopper" " Roger that. Leave it for the night shift. "
Lol too funny
Thanks Chris, always nice to see you again. Watching your video and listening to a little bit of Jazz.
That was so cool! It reminds me of that last scene in the first Dirty Harry movie where Clint Eastwood is chasing the killer all through one of those things while it’s running.
I grew up in the Poconos... Born and raised! Lots of beauty and cool things to find
Awesome location.
I don't know how old that crane might be, from the 40s or 50s maybe? That whole area must have been full of cacophonous noise for a good 40 years, and then... utter silence. Thanks for the video!
Awesome views!! Great work Chris!
Would make a great movie set for a movie. Would love to have the money to fix it up and make it into the Biggest Tree house. Its very cool how you can walk up in the trees tops and what a view of the country. I'd sand blast and paint all the metal green and brown weatherize it. and blending in with the land scape.
Super awesome explore. You address most of the same questions I think about when I’m looking at old places...wonder who was the last person to use that toilet, imagine how loud it must’ve been when that machine was running, those stones were the very ones about to go through the machine when it was switched off for the last time... also ❤️ the outtakes!! 😁
Very interesting place.Thanks for making awesome videos! You are so great at making videos.
You really need to check out the abandoned Billmeyer limestone Quarry in
Bainbridge Pa.. the quarry flooded in the 60’s closed that same year. In 83 it was used for scuba divers and now it’s abandoned. Since 83 many scuba divers have been killed due to lack of knowing how deep the tanks are that are still flooded to this day
Very nice explore and the natural decay makes the spot perfect.
I like the old F750 Ford. You should have checked the inside door frame to see what year it was made. Thanks for these old abandoned places. Waiting for you to do an old drive in theater. Although because of this pandemic I heard their starting to open some of them back up.
I'd like to find some for sure. Check out the abandoned roller rink video I did. The second part of it is a drive in.
A lot of expensive equipment just left to rust away.
this was a really interesting post! just imagine in another era and place the job of breaking big stones into small stones would be done without big equipment, by prisoners and called 'hard labor'
Amazing find. Loved the information and showing us around. Thank you.
The Allis-Chalmers name plate you showed at 4:44 reminded me of a story in a _Reader's Digest_ humor collection (I think it was "Life in these United States. For those unfamiliar with the firm, the company was formed in 1901 in Milwaukee, WI, from a consolidation of several manufacturers of industrial equipment. It was a huge company; so huge that the town that sprung up around its factory was named after it: West Allis, WI. In the blurb in RD, a man whose firm did business with A-C was dictating a letter to them to his new secretary. When she handed him the perfectly typed letter, he was amused to see the salutation, "Dear Alice..." I believe you're right, they dug up large limestone or other rocks, dumped them up on top into that big hopper you found near the end, crushed them, moved them by belts to other crushers, reducing them further, and sizing them through shaker screens until they were run through that rotating pipe apparatus, heating the fine stuff to make it into lime for bagging. What an elevated maze---some film company should use it as a location! Stay safe, everybody.
They are(were) big manufacturers of farm equipment especially farm tractors.
16:13 THOSE GORGEOUS WINDOWS!!!
A fantastic find, amazing that everything was left and still pretty intact and solid too. Thank you for sharing. x
Not too much damage considering it closed in 96
@@MobileInstinct Yes I agree. x
Thanks for all your great content
Heyyyyooo good to get a vidya from ya in the middle of the day bud! Hope you’re well homie, I’ve been putting mixes of your videos on repeat at night to get to sleep bc they’re so relaxing and it’s been harder to sleep some nights on furlough from work as long as I have been now! Preciate the great content on those nights, not that they are boring at all but they bring a ASMR punch as well to me and I’m not normally into ASMR.
Great video, loved the tour and the place. I really don't know if I would trust walking on some of that stuff, but...
That’s cool to see that old stuff. I haul out of sand and gravel plants with my dump truck here in AZ🌵
Limestone quarry / cement plant . The trommel was for drying the lime stone
Nice tour. To me, this is more of a former sand and gravel pit than quarry. A quarry usually is when they are removing strips of stone and many times will fill up with water once they are done and not pumping it out after excavating. Becket, MA and Rock of Ages in Barre, VT come to mind.
The heat coming from that machine from friction when running would have been tremendous .
Great find out there in the woods of Pennsylvania. You're braver than I am. I would not climb on that stuff.
I absolutely love love love this channel
Very beautiful location.
I'm in PA(Lower Bucks County)and I would love to know where this is.
I know of one quarry that I'm roughly 25 minutes from, but that one is still operating so I know it's not that one.
If anyone has any location info on this particular spot, PLEASE pass it along!!
Otherwise this was a great video that I really enjoyed...thank you.
This looks like a place where the movie North Country was filmed. Good movie you gotta watch it.
Epic drone shots, loved the bloopers too funny
Good times man
JP videos did a shoot on this , and it was for getting gravel and sand for cement. You did a good job on this!!!
It wasn't for a cement, I'm not sure where he was getting his info from. But this was a sand and limestone quarry. We went through all the paperwork and nothing came up for a cement company
9:12 CRAZY BIRD CALL
Who is controlling the drone?
There's a setting that automatically follows or circles
So cool 😎!
That’s interesting! I didn’t know that!
Very inter-rusting adventure!
😆
Welcome to my home state. What a cool find.
Excellent video, quite interesting. I think u were touring a gravel plant which had installed a vibratory rock crusher making gravel of various grades for everything from concrete making to road paving. Cheers.
This was really awesome looking place! :)
I've seen a video or two in the past of this place. I live in West PA, but I'll have to head out there some time soon and check it out.
This is so cool. Thanks for sharing it.
I'm new to your channel,,I love your videos,,thay are so interesting,,i love to see stories of things left behind for years
nice Keen boots (: i hope they are the quality ones. I bought a pair that blew out almost immediately, three months looked like three years on my previous pair
Very good at explaining things
I was curious about the Ford F-750 @ 9:14. I tried to look up a match of that same body style and found that the closest looking model dates way back to 1956. Which sparks even more curiosity because if this site really did close down some time around the mid-90s then why would such an old out of date vintage pick-up truck still be in use up to that point in time?
this company must have had millions to waste...back in the day that unit would have costed thousands
Chris Cook a lot just for the jaw.
"Costed" isn't a word; it's just "cost".
Allis Chalmers also made farm tractors.
They tried to make tractors!
No they actually had successful tractors my cousins have one.
Enjoyed this -- excellent work. I see 'Deister Machine Vibrating Screens' still manufactures -- the Allis-Chalmers name only survives.
Be careful, wasps love to build nests in places like that.
At 5:58 you know what kind of Hopper that is?!
A Dennis Hopper lol 🤣
(Ba dum dum PSSSH 🥁)
😆
Thanks for sharing!
This is also sort of a reply to H3N2 - Thank you for showing us this impressive but disgusting use of land in Pennsylvania. They have denuded it of trees and other living things, taken the valuable stone out of it, no doubt made a HUGE profit from it (otherwise they wouldn`t have bothered!) I think that because they brought all that equipment IN, which is obviously UNUSABLE now, they should HAVE TO TAKE IT OUT - never MIND "The game"! It`s a HORRIBLE mess for which the company is responsible, and they SHOULDN`T be allowed to get away with it! I feel the same way about ALL of the other rusting and rotting RELICS you have shown us, notably the abandoned YACHT in the river and the abandoned CHINA factory! (I`ve seen others but those are two of the most memorable!)
Yes those 2 were my favorite explore. Especially the yacht
I'm glad companies leave stuff to rot away. I love exploring abandoned things like this!
@@journeywithjay - yes, it is interesting to explore rotting relics, but they could be unsafe (this one didn`t appear to be!) and I would enjoy (and have enjoyed) tours of various WORKING plants and factories. (So far, I`ve toured an open-face asbestos mine, an aluminum extrusion plant and a candy factory!)
Chris, Jay, all the kings horsemen, all of ....
Heck yeah!!!
Pennsylvania is beautiful
THANK YOU CHIS,,,HEADING WEST? LOTS HEAT IN UTAH ETC...SAFE TRAVELS,,GEAT VIDEO
I live in Pennsylvania and I was just thinking about exploring a strip mining quarry this morning! What a coincidence! I'm definitely checking this place out! Where is it?
I’d definitely look through Jay’s video and comments to see if anyone disclosed a location, I’m scrolling thru here and no one seems to know.
Edit: someone here noted that the phone book in the video says pike and monroe county which is the poconos. Hopefully someone in Jay’s vid knows. Good luck!
If you know a bit about geology and vegetation and such its easier to locate places.
Where at in PA? I would like to go. I’m guessing western PA., thanks
Thanks for the video
I"m thinking Eastern Pa right off Rt 80. At 5:02 you can see ski trails in the distance and it looks to be Camelback, spent a lot of time there as a kid. Would be cool to know.
I want to go too! If you find out, please let me know
Definitely eastern, the phone book said Monroe county/Mt. Pocono
The answer to the location is on the cassette tape :) have fun searching google maps
danhero666 got it. But there’s history. A merger with several locations from Hazelton to Pittsburgh. What else you got?
Reminds me of the "watchtower" scene from the first "Wrong Turn". This whole are would be PERFECT to shoot a horror movie!
You seen the infamous British horror "Eden Lake" (2008) yet? If some Yank production company ever decides to remake that movie Stateside (surprised one hasn't by now!) the quarry would be a great place to film it...!
I grew up next to a gravel pit quarry that ceased being used somewhere in the early 60’s after they broke into an underground river and all the pits flooded. There was a steam shovel still at the bottom of the biggest pit. We used to sneak in there to swim and fish. The fish were so hungry that they would nibble on you when you swam. It is now underneath a highway, unfortunately. But it was cool while it lasted.
Another great video as usual! You do a great job!
Interesting explore, funny outtakes... 👍😆👍
Ooooo I wanna go there! Also, hello Jay!
Hey there!! If you ever come up this way traveling. Just hit me up I will show you all around
Oh my goodness! That place is BEAUTIFUL. I'd rather spend a day there than at the funfair! I want to be the dude in the little wooden hut up near that crusher, toward the end.
Hey what ya doin' up there..?
I'm crushin' rocks, damn-it!
Good one, Jay!
Thanks but Chris made the video, I just found the place lol
I’m new here. My family has been in the quarry business for 3 generations and I love seeing all of this. Do you have a discord I could join
Also I have a 1953 Ford f750 big job like the water truck
Looks like this was a sand quarry and the structure you was on would have been known as the shaker and screener and the the round timber was the dryer, so how it worked was somewhere on the property would've been a crusher that would crush the sandstone boulders then the crushed product would go through the screens and sort the different size stones and some would get crushed small enough to be sand like play sand or concrete sand and that where the dryer came into play the sand would need to be dry otherwise it couldn't be loaded onto truck, rail car,ect. The only reason I know this process is I use to haul sand the went to PPG for auto glass. Awesome video
Cool explore.. Great footage!
Awesome exploration
You know a lot about this stuff Most impressive
very cool area to explore
Love your channel
Enjoy Pennswoods brother Mobile
The F on that truck would let me to believe it is a Ford. Big block V-8 9:18
Looks like a decent small house with a huge barn, at one time. I would have liked to have seen it before it was a quarry with all the equipment. I wonder if you ever get yourself in scary situations, on structures that are not too stable. Interesting as usual.
I'm pretty careful and check things out pretty well ahead of time.
I figured but still good to know for sure. Ha!
That’s awesome!!
That “barn” is an old equipment shed
The thing you looked at was a big trauma and the stack coming out. The top is an old it’s a vintage asphalt plant.

Screaming jimmy?
The lack of graffiti and vandalism is so wonderful!!
Agree which is one of the reasons why we decided not to name the location of this place.
Only because there's a lack of younger locals. The location is on almost every abandoned website there is, visitors rarely vandalize. One reason I never understood not giving out locations, it doesn't thwart local kids at all.
