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”: Hey Everyone! Mr M did an excellent video about the SCHNOZZOLATOR 5000 and how it will be used. Here’s the link and be sure to subscribe to his channel for more fun filled behind the scenes stuff: ruclips.net/video/XcMqFpoSxjM/видео.html
Tell Mr. M to get better! You guys work well together, Thanks for another great mine!
My problem would be, I would want to sample the mines and see what, if any, gold or silver was still available in profitable amounts...
Great explore! Cool, extensive mine.
@@jimren5638 The vibration was the camera mic, when Gly gets going, he sometimes shakes, which is why his camera has motion stabilizers on it! It works fine for the video, but not the sound.
Never never never have your camera on fish-eyed, just saying
When you get 1 million you will need a scout and I'm putting in my resume right now!!
Best quote today: “I don’t like this mine. I didn’t like it last night...and I don’t like it now.” - Mr. M
“I think we are gunna be here for a while.” Going into shaft #2
This whole video had me freaked out. I am definately outside sitting in the jeep, from a broken nail. Lol
They should cover these open mines.no telling how many ppls m animals have disappeared without a trace into them😬
Am hearing a "gieger counter" unfortunately the Koreans who make this Samsung haven't quite grasped the concept of predictive text and spell check,So interfere with perfectly good spelling inserting the interpretation and as of now a need their "assistance" it is not there
Worst quote: 30:40 you're that hungry or it's just a psychopath thing past 12 years old ? You looked sympathetic. Last time.
I enjoy your videos each week.
Im paralyzed and in a wheelchair so I couldn't go into the type of mines you go into. I did get to go into the Park city mine adventures in Utah when it was open. My grandfather worked in mines in Utah and Nevada during the depression, so I have a bit of mining curiosity in my genes?
But I can still feel some of the excitement watching these videos. Thank you 😊.
I went into the park city mine on my honeymoon 1992. That was one deep mine and couldn't believe how long the cage took to get below. Glad you got to go too.
Nothin better than chillin with Gly and Mr. M on a Saturday morning!!
Hell yea perfect morning cup of coffee guy and Mr m perfect morning
MORE A SUNDAY EVENING
I love the duo you two have. You are the curious Pooh that have to poke your head in every little bend and hole.. And Mr M is the Eeyore of caves... Following along without argue but expecting troubles along the way. 😁😁
“Gly”: That’s a great analogy! Lol
Best description ever👍👍
"miners always used gravity...." Reminds me of a story my boss told me. He grew up in a mining family and went to college to be a geologist. Had a test one day in class with a diagram of a hill and ore body. Question was how far down and at what angle would you dig to get down to the ore body. Boss answered the question and then made a note that a Geologist would dig down while a miner would dig under, stope up and let gravity do the work......
The slo mo of the bats was great
Really enjoy all of these videos, but I especially enjoy these long ones... I know it's not always possible and not everyone may like it, but I really get wrapped up in the exploration, the relatively uncut nature really immerses me. Thanks so much for your work guys PS really enjoyed the geologic explanations on this one, really made it clear
“Gly”: Thank you very much!
Fantastic! Bored on a snowy day in lockdown! A whole hour? Yes!
Thank you for explaining the geology. Brings back old memories of terminology we learned at Pasadena City college. I'm sure most geology students have learned a few things by watching your channel.
Dwayne -- Here's one that they didn't teach you in College . --- Mining terminology is so confusing . The miners REMOVE ore and waste rock , so instead of an "Adit" , technically shouldn't it be called a "Subtract-it" . LOL . --- < Doc , Miner for over 50 years > .
You out did yourself today with pointing out the veins, lens/tables, etc. Thanks. Give my best to Mr. M. He is priceless..
I like how safe you guys are doing this. There are other youtube channels that do this that are just asking to be lost forever.
I guess it comes down to the question, "where are you 100% safe?" Gly said he feels safer there than driving on a road. I believe that. He's also a professional that knows what he's doing. Any sport, recreation or hobby has a certain amount of background danger. It is an acceptable risk.
“Gly”: We do try to be as safe as possible given the circumstances but this still is a VERY dangerous activity.
Yes, it is time again for a great Saturday adventure. Say hi to Mister M.
I like how Gly gets so happy when he sees new tunnels and wildlife ... It's looks just like a kid in a candy store.
“Gly”: I absolutely love exploring these places.
I love this long episodes with a lot of explanations on how oldtimers prospected and then dug those mines... It has been never clear for me how all that was done. Geology or composition of those mines comments are also of big help! Thank you guys!
Everything was done by hand and they were strong men who looked like iron, not like the men of today. They look like. A piece of biscuit or chocolate melts. away from the sun and rely on working women
Oh my goodness, this is the best one yet. I love how you're giving us a tour as well as a walkthrough and not rushing it like some adrenaline junkie trying to get through every nook and cranny. I love the slower pace, like a tour guide does it. Great job, and great footage!! Woah, you really need your filtered masks on... there so much dust and particles, please be careful.
Really admire the two camera work and the editing together which gives me a great sense of the dimensions and layout of the mine. Much more so than a one man team could put over. Glys enthusiasm and Mr M’s wry sense of humour make for a great episode guys.
“Gly”: Thank you!
Hi from Germany, always a great Saturday afternoon event!
I'm currently recovering from having a staph infection and hospitalization and I must say watching these shows and hearing Gly's reassuring voice as he gets ready to go down into the mine; it's nice and makes for a more mellow evening.
Good morning brothers from snowy Syracuse NY and quarantine
Finally...seems like its been forever
Awesome super excited, Thank you for another exciting adventure !!!!
Gly, your not lying!! I've been telling people for years when they hear I explored mines, theyre like don't you feel scared, threatened or claustrophobic? Im like it's the very opposite for me I feel safe, secure, and comfortable!! And unlike out here a lot of the time the mine itself is providing you free endless entertainment!!! Especially the more you know!!!
Saturdays favorite show. 👍😋
My wife said and i quote love seeing the bats show them more great views in a awesome mine thanks for allowing me to tag along.
I messaged frank from the other mine explore channel yesterday about doing a link up video. Actualy got a message back saying when the border is open again he's all up for it 😀🔥🎥
“Gly”: Yes, we will be collaborating again sometime in the future after the covid situation settles down.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces brilliant I'm sure I speak for your viewers when I say. looking forward to that one. Big shout to you and Mr m From your viewers across the pond
The lens lesson around the 45 minute mark was fantastic.
Mr. M is my spirit animal in this episode. I would never step into that mine. Holy crap. 😬 Thanks for another great adventure guys!
@Abandoned and Forgotten Places,
Oh wow Gly!
Mr M’s reaction was priceless! I would loved to know what he said off camera!???🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The best part of all this was seeing all the bats. Love those furry things!
The double lighting with M walking behind, with, flood is great ... Effect enlarges the perspective and looks superb ...
Wanted to ask, what lights are you using ? And how many ...
“Gly”: Each of us has nearly 5000 lumens of light that can be increased or decreased depending on the mine. To much light washes out the colors of the rocks but in the larger areas 5000 lumens really does do a nice job illuminating large areas.
39:50 Mr. M your killing me!!! HA! HA!
I just want to say that you hit the nail directly on the head when you say what the interests of exploring these mines are, it’s about the substantial work and effort that was put into building these mines and also what’s neat is how they build the oar shoots and how the stopes were made and how old time oar carts looked like and what was used to pull them in and out and also the main shaft is a neat feature along with all the equipment used like the air compressors and everything that makes a mine, I’m pretty sure I watched a clip the other day of one of the people you had mentioned in a earlier video about a moth ago, he just recently explored a mine and it had massive massive air compressors tanks and all kinds of cool things and cool oar carts etc, I’d just like to point out gly that I really think it’d bring a lot of interested viewers if you explored class 5 mines since you have the equipment to do so, I just way to say that the first video I watched I took interest in was when you explored that 4500 or 7500 foot inclined shaft, I found that was very very interesting indeed and from that point in I kept watching while I sit and eat my mcdons every night lol, stay safe out they’re! I’m really enjoying the content and I’m always looking forward to seeing your next video, take care I hope you see this.
“Gly”: Hi Kyle, I’m really happy your enjoying the channel! Yes, class 5 mines is where the adventure really begins and I look forward to discovering all the amazing artifacts that haven’t been removing due to inaccessibility. I truly believe that what I’m going to find down in the bottom of these shafts is going to be absolutely incredible.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces ever since me and a friend explored a little mine nothing serious like you go through it just caught my attention and ever since I’ve found massive interest in it and started searching of a good RUclipsr who blogs the stuff and you actually have the gear to do so with a non static mic or a potato camera lol. Now I understand that ya it’s hard to find good and safe class 5 mines to explore and I totally respect the safety for you and mr. M, to all extent. it is very dangerous not only material falling but all the trapped gasses etc underneath, I really think class 5 mines hold a lot of valuable items that’ll soon be covered up once everything gives away and as each day goes by ones always being destroyed by Mother Nature, and I want to note as well that it was the video where you tried to locate the body’s that were lost in a mine and they had to make a new man way/portal and tried to reach them but couldn’t and you had ended up finding your way underneath the collapse where they’re souls rest, that was effort and that’s what effort along with hope does! I think you done a very good exploration of that mine and those are hard to come by, that was such a nicely built ladder all the way down to the sump and such a nicely built vertical shaft for the time being built, that went so far in the ground Ill go and look and correct my mistake if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure it was a 7500 foot shaft, (blew my mind) I absolutely love seeing stuff like that. it always sets a clear picture of the time frame/era of a miner working hard with a pic axe and how things are done just to earn a buck. These mines are a pure Crystal clear picture of the dedication hard work the amount of hours by all those who worked and they’re definitely one of a kind! I wish I didn’t live so far because I’d really love to tag along on the adventures I’m always learning something new in your videos and I love every minute of it! and just a first person look would be absolutely worth every second of my time!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces it was the souls mine exploration, I don’t know why I thought it was a 7500 foot vertical shaft it was inclined shaft and you got to the level 500 and you also had 4 parts to the video, another thing I’d like to say is it’s nice to see you answer your subs even when you have a lot of viewers, half the people now don’t answer or only answer If you pay to they’re channel, that makes me happy that you keep up with comments! Cheers to you and Mr. M great pair you guys are!
Thank you Gly for explaining the different types of ore bodies in these old mines. NOW I know why mines look the way they do when you guys are exploring them. It's details like this that make your channel a joy to watch. Take care you two!!
“Gly”: Thank you!
Thank you so much, guys! You always make my day better!!!
It's always great to wake up to a new episode of A&FP!!!! And then I saw bats........yeah....bats.....
EDIT: What are you going to do when you run out of mines in your area? It would be great to eventually turn this into a travel show of sorts.
30:44 Loved this little b-roll interlude. More please
41:37 just managed to keep it a family show Mr M 😂
He does struggle with that!!
Another awesome video gly!!! Thank you
I'm bettin' Mr. M got pissed off about that little trick Gly played on him leaving him standing there wondering if Gly was ok or not and so he went back to the Jeep. Lol!
He had to take a break. A.K.A. he's pissed off! Mr. M. Mentions he didn't like the layout of area too much. In a way the video goes different after Mr. M. speaks of not liking the mines. The air was thick, and it's not from the bat guano! If you know what I mean?
High from Tadley in Hampshire England excellent job I really look forward to the next show regards Kevin stay safe.
I love tadley.👍
Thanks again Gly and Mr. M for a wonderful Saturday episode. Hope Mr. M is back up and going full steam. All of you take care and remember to give Mary the info your supposed to. See you guys next weekend.
Hi Gly & Mister M, wow what an awesome episode, I love the longer video's even though currently it's 1:05 AM here in the UK 😉, oops bedtime I think. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💖
When you encounter bats, why don't we hear the echolocation squeaks of the bats? Mr, M Rocks crawling threw rocks!
“Gly”: Soon I’ll be ordering a new microphone that’ll do a better job of capturing ambient background noises.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces that's cool now
Bat echolocation frequency is way above human hearing. 9khz-200khz. Humans top out at 20khz.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Wow my studio monitors await this!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Make sure you're not expecting to exceed the bandwidth of the codecs in any given processing step or distribution... some will roll off to a cap of 12-15khz, a lot of the bat echolocation won't make it.
Hope Mr. M. is on the mend...🤭😏. You guy's are great! 🏆. Just watching you makes me feel nervous .... You're braver than I would ever be, in a cave. 😬
“Gly”: He’s doing much better now. Just a few bruises.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Glad to hear it. Thanks. 👍👍
Gly, you are awesome. Great introduction info. Lens and tabular. Brilliant, thank you.
102k subscribers and an hour long vid!! awww man.. hits the spot. well on you guys! keep it going.
Great work Gly Thank you for all you do. Every day is a learning day when you’re involved.
I especially liked the slo-mo bat segment. You even got the music right! Another thanks to both of you.
Great video as ever! Thanks so much!
Thanks for this adventure Gly and Mr. M. I live on the east coast and I’m pretty sure I’ll never do this in person. I’ll drink some margaritas for you! Lol
Outstanding! Thank you for sharing your amazing adventure with all of us that can only dream of doing the same! , (Although I've got coal miner in my blood, I think I would be waiting a few feet behind Mr. M with some of the places you fearlessly go)
Awesome episode. Great that you explain what's going on and why you do what you do... Thank you..
Total respect to the miners they sure had a tough life.
Hey man thanks for this vedio i like it and i hope you have a great day and be careful to yourself and your friend with you. Good luck from Palestine...
Been looking forward to this. Good morning everyone from Arizona🌵
👋from the Pinals!
Great video Gly and Mr. M. I love these long videos and all the things you point out in the mine and in the rocks Gly. Sure hope Mr. M is ok after his spill. Hopefully it was only a bit of bruised pride. Take care you two. See ya next week. Stay healthy and safe.
I love bats Gly & Mr M! Glad you take care not to disturb them too much. Its their cave now the miners have left! ❤😊
Keep up your great work! Thank you!
Brilliant episode Gly and Mr. M! Love how informative it was and how you explain everything so clearly.
I was wondering if there was any way You would be able to show us how steep some of the stope inclines were? Sometimes it's hard to tell which way is up so even something like a weighted plumb bob would help a lot 👍
Keep making amazing videos!
Amazing that miners could work in these tight inhospitable tunnels! Thanks for close ups!
More commentary from Mr. M sure WEWD add to the footage... 😉. Thanks for treating us to these times of our history. 😎
One of the best.. love the explanation on how the body was formed . I love learning new things and you learned me .. thank you 👍
Oh yeah.... Finally another episode..... Nice to see you again guys
Great video! Keep up the good work!
Great episode again Gly. Looking forward to seeing the new toy in operation. 😎⛏
Gly - did yopu chip off a sample of the ore you were pointing out at 51:19? I would love to see an assay of that lovely looking rock! Great video, my friend! Very interesting and educational. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of mining!
“Gly”: Those certainly were some good looking veins. It would be interesting to know just how profitable this mine was.
This exploration had a little bit of everything. I really enjoyed it!
“Gly”: Thank you!
Wow I have my own Lens named Bruce... Neat!
I sure do hope Mr. M is ok. I'm 67 and I how it is to not bounce so well anymore.. :-(
Thanks for the video!
LLAP
Hell yea dope video man!
Rocks over my head duh!!!! It's all rock your in a mine lol. Good job Gly and Mr.M.
Hey Wow. Thanks for explaining lensing and tabular, then going up into the stopes. Love it.
Just what you need, a haulage level that isn't open to the levels above it, without ore chutes or passes, and full of bats. Mr. M says, "Thank you Gly for stress testing the false floor planks for me. At least the cholla spines weren't full blown Teddy Bear Cholla lumps just waiting to latch on. Nice pyrite - now you need a hammer and chisel. All the good samples are buried in the cut and fill piles. I really enjoyed this episode. Thanks for the excellent trip through history and thanks for the great video !!!
“Gly”: Your right, I bet there’s some nice pieces hiding in the cut and fill. Thanks Loyal!
Gly, you do realize, of course, that Mr M certainly did NOT trip on his shoelaces....He PRETENDED to be wounded so that he could sit out the next BAT TORNADO!!!! Thanks for another fascinating explore!
Mr M ain’t no dummy!!
“Gly”: It was really elegant and I wish I had caught it on camera. The way he tripped and fell was like River Dance crossed with ice Capades. Only music could have made it better.
Perhaps not far off.
Yesssssssssssssss great way to start the weekend
Hello Gly that was an interesting mine and video here today about how you explained about the veins running through the mountain and what you were talking about in the last couple minutes of the video is why I'm like you on wanting to explore and vedio it too cause if the people today had to do it like they did I'd know if it would be even done nowadays here cause of it being what I call real work too it's amazing to see how and what they done in their now too have a great day now and I hope Mr.M is doing well too there
Another great mine! Many small twists and turns in this one, and haven't seen timbering like that yet. Nice job!
Ah love seeing the old timber trunks used in mines. Just adds to the ingenuity factor of old.
Beautiful portal @ 47:49, very antique. Wowzers..
Still love this intro. The music and visuals are stunning and professional.
every show gets better and better
Love you guys. “That was fun sitting there with out you and hearing weird noises” lol
Hello the charts of ore bodies explain a lot of questions from past and help in future exploring .thank you Cjd wash state
2/2 In addition, are there any fed or state regs that dictate what can and cannot be removed from these mines? Would love to see a deeper dive into these issues. Great work, and great show! Keep up the educational and entertaining Saturday mornings, please.
“Gly”: Artifacts are technically protected by the antiquities act. It’s something you can Google and research as it’s quite lengthy.
Antiquities Act of 1906
(54 U.S.C. §§ 320301 to 320303) and Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979 (16 U.S.C. §§ 470aa - 470mm), Basically first offenders can face up to 1 year in prison and $20,000 in fines; repeat offenders 5 years guest of the federal gov't and $100,000 in fines. Anything 100 years or older is treated as an archaeological resource.
Privately owned land, with written landowner permission you can take items excluding human remains/grave goods (state laws vary and should be consulted).
Public Lands; simple answer is look but don't take anything made by humans (except for plastic bottles; those are definitely not old enough and for some reason are left all over... hmmmm). you can collect fossils (provided they are not in an archaeological context) and mineral specimens.. All those ribbons you see are geologists taking samples. Also; the 1872 mining law (30 U.S.C. §§ 22-42) may mean that some of these mines may have active non-patented claims on file that are current and may have territorial claim holders very close by.
My recommendation for everyone is to respect both the site and other explorers by following the "look but dont touch" and "Leave no trace" of your presence.
Hahahaha love the googly eyes on Mr. M's microphone! Awesome bat footage too!
Got really enjoyed the video especially all the hard lumber work they did to get ore out of the mines. Thank you for showing that and pointing out the ore body & the two types, very interesting .😊👍
33:33 That cut to Mr. M's point of view really helped me regain my bearings. Great editing there!
The multitude of colors of the rock in those stoops is amazing.
First hoping mr m is ok ❤️ just can’t tell you enough how much I enjoy your channel this mine was pretty cool had a lot to offer looking up in the stulls always makes a cool shot great stuff guy’s as always be safe 👍👍
Your the best...especially on a sick day!!!
Loved the bat video music montage! Also liked the two little eyes that Mr. M put on his fuzzy microphone cover.
Hope mr m is ok the stalls scare me stay safe from your Canadian friends
30:49 - Why is that music for the cute bat slow mo so perfect for a cute bat slow mo lol
Great intro with the ore body geology lesson - loved it. Thanks for pointing out all the mine features Gly - much appreciated. Learning quite a bit from you. It really is hard to believe how much material the miners removed. Hard work would be an understatement. Hope Mr. M is OK. Thanks for a great episode Gly.
“Gly”: Thank you!
Ya:ll need to sign some of the shirt and hoodie that be awesome
One of the jobs that miners do that shows how hard these men work is setting up all the timbers, just that job alone is so impressive.In a lot of the brilliant videos you have filmed there are literally in some cases 1000's of tonnes of wood 💪💎⚒💯❤
Those timbers up by ore chute 6 looked almost pristine, it's incredible.
hellooo...Your voice brilliant👍👍👍 when i watching your videos and listening to your voice it was like a radio host.
You guys are amazing, cant wait for the shnozolater to expand your explore
Your the first and still the best. Can’t believe how interesting this mine is
Hi there guys, Nice video. Well done job on those sound effects with the bats there. That was nice.
