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...

The C.S.P. bricks were manufactured by the the California Sewer Pipe Company, located in Vernon, CA. (Los Angeles). CSP began operations in 1900, making a variety of bricks including fire bricks. They were in business as late as 1915 and probably longer. I could not find a record of when they closed, but they have definitely been gone for many years. Stay Safe.
I had to laugh when you remarked that you didn't want a wet foot! Here in UK, 95% of old mines are flooded, we end up walking through chest high COOOOOLD water! Whatever time of year, the water is always COOOOOLD! But fair play to you Gly, I would have been crapping my pants at all that collapsed material, keep them coming Braveheart!
As always you never leave us disappointed. Don’t know what the mine is like until you get in it. What we say was really cool. Thank you for hiking on 2 wet noodle’s for legs to show us this one. Keep up the great exploring and most of all-Stay safe out there. We want you around for a long time.
I could never be disappointed in a Gly video either.. I always say he could take us on an adventure to a store and I’d be right here watching 😂

Whats so genuine about your channel and explores is that your put up a "story" every week with a new location for us to see. You don't "miss a beat" except for unforseen "holdups" like Jeep repair generally. (hopefully never a "repair" on you). We travel along with you and see or run into what you do. We had our day planned to be with you and you had the day planned to find "new ground" and a unexplored mine or scenic, uniique area. So today, we all ran into a soft phoritic type geology and over time the mine fell in or closed in by the soft soil makeup. Darn! we all say, had alot hinged on this outing and explore, but there are alot of abandoned mines in those hills you're searching, and "good ol' Gly" will find another for we all to see. Thanks for doing all the "leg work" though. See you next Sat.
Getting old ain't for sissies. I'm almost 70, I can feel your pain. Thanks for the ride Gly.
I am 84 and also have neuropathy in both lower legs - NO hiking around for any distance more than about 1/2 mile or so. Anyway, thanks for the videos!
Bob - My buddies and I buzzed around Death Valley in the early 1960's using a WWII 3/4 ton Ambulance. Good adventures before people started burning down everything.
Hi Gly, George here. Gly, once a few years ago, up in Massachusetts, I was working with friends, building a kitchen remodel/addition. We poured a concrete foundation one day and went home for the night...next day, we come to work and the homeowner, a wonderful Lady who's name I will not share, The homeowner had gone out after we left and sat in the concrete naked. When we got to work the next day, we were going to chalk lines, lay down the pressure treated bottom plate on the new concrete....when I looked at what was a really nice imprint of what was obviously a lovely lady. We had a blushing laugh and looked up to see her turning away with a cup of tea, going back into the old part of the house laughing quietly. I bet you would blush too if you found that instead of a miners handprint and date...
Those cholla cactus are ruthless. The thorns can go through just about anything. Been stuck plenty of times bouldering around Joshua tree
Right at 18:03 there's a shaft straight up. You can see it when you're scurrying out of the timbered section at first.
Good Saturday morning Gly! Looking forward to your Mine exploration and such fantastic Mines you share with us which most would never otherwise be able to see. 😊👏
Wow what a great day. If you only had a shot thru the collapse. Much better safe than sorry. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I've seen you get into some pretty dangerous areas and you continued on, so to see you back out of this mine tells me this is one mine no one should go into. Great job Gly!
Nothing better than a lil rockin cowbell on a Saturday night. No telling what you've had found if that mine went back further. Have a good weekend Gly.
I just love you, Gly! This week was a bit crazy. I was so glad when you got out of that mine! I’ve Have had the pleasure of following you since your beginning. You are my favorite “ mine guy”. I am a retired environmental education teacher with a degree in geology. I am thrilled to go right into the earth down these miners paths. You are so awesome the way you get all excited about stuff. Never change.
But usually you pick
Such wonderful music. But, this week the music you had was awful. I hope it was just a special. Im retired now but have to go to your site to sign up to give you a few bucks every month. Just love ya, Gly! 😘
We really enjoy your productions Guy. Every week is a win!
Thanks for the tour Gly. It's something I'll have to live through you to do. Too old, too broken and no experience!
At least this trip not a total bust, thanks for taking a stab at it, you explaining items and the workings gave us an idea what the miners did. I know by now to trust you at your word, there's a reason for not risking your life a d I soooo appreciate not being a witness to any harm that comes your way!!
Nice to read comments from other viewers who look forward to Gly's next adventure while bringing us along every Saturday morning. Thanks Gly!
Look who remembered his helmet! Glad you had it for this one especially, so sketchy, could have gone badly.
What always amazes me about the places you show us is how early miners found these areas, how they got all equipment to the site, and how could timber supports hold up massive weight of all that rock.😮👍💕
Thanks Gly for the adventure! I always look forward to these epic explorations! Merry Christmas Sir!
Just have to say I love watching your videos. I’m a 62yr old grandmother living in Darwin Australia - I’m claustrophobic and have never been in a mine and never will, but I’m also an adventurer and understand the thrill of discovering new (old) things. I’m a passionate storm chaser and wildlife researcher, but I have always had an interest in the Australian gold rush years. I’ve also lived on the goldfields near Kalgoorlie in Western Australia for a time, so am very interested in old workings. Have come across many old sites in our outback travels and just love to dream about the old timers that lived their lives out in the middle of nowhere. Thank you so much for what you do. It’s so much appreciated - all the best from Down Under!😁
If you hadn't filmed it, we wouldn't believe you went that far into that mine. I would have stopped at the portal. Do people still mine like this where they dynamite into the hill and extract gold or silver or other minerals? Are there still places with gold that the old timers never found out there? Thanks for putting yourself in danger so we can see these places. You make the best mine video's out there and it I hope you can still do it a few more years.
The following is a good description of my favorite prospector/explorer Gly.
"Not too tall, not too top heavy, not too wide...just perfect!"
Just playin...but you are my favorite prospector and explorer. Be careful out there! 🙏🏽
Not to mention a walking encyclopedia at times
It was cool seeing that old saw horse still standing there. Imaging the timber work done with that.
Goodmorning Gly!
Thanks for the awesome video and love what you do for us!
My wife and I are heading to Joshua Tree today to take in a day trip and do some poking around.
Stay healthy.
Jim & Michele.
Here's a tip Gly, next time you have to crawl through thorns or mud or anything else unpleasant, grab a rock that is bigger than your hand and use it as a spacer between you and the offending material. That is what we used to do as kids growing up in the greater desert southwest. Works like a charm.
That is one scary place GLy! right at 16:06, about 2 seconds after you say "I'll be darned" a bit of material falls down in front of the camera right in the middle of the frame! seeing all of how soft the walls and back of the mine are I wouldn't have gone under those heavy timbers but turned around right there. Did you notice that material falling down from the back of the mine like that while you were walking in? it happens several seconds later again, and I wouldn't have gone as deep as you did, but I'm a big chicken when it comes to any hint of collapse, you got cojones of steel bruh! also seeing that stull holding up a large portion of the back of the mine with all those cracks around it, I'm surprised it was even still standing in that condition it looked like it was going to collapse at any second, yeah that was definitely a breath holding moment. We3ll, you gave it your best shot Gly and this location was definitely not safe, glad that it was collapse where it was because it looked to be a death trap to me. From the position of the mill site you can see what looks to be an adit really high up on the hill, or was that just a cave or dark spot that went nowhere? Anyways thanks again for taking us with you on this adventure and showing us this location, I'm such a rock hound that I would have spent the whole day picking through the waste rock pile for nice bits of rock. I have a bit of neuropathy as well so I know what you mean but mine is NOT numbness, the opposite of it actually but I can relate. Take care of those wet noodles and rest your legs for a while. see you on wednesday if you have something to show us, if not then next Saturday! TTFN
Good morning, Gly. Wow! I was having some serious anxiety watching you go through this one. Seriously sketchy!!!
Glad you backed out and decided to not spend much time inside. Stay safe, sweetie.
Jeff said she have some health problems brother I'm sending prayers God bless you
Sweet a new video on my birthday! Thanks Gly! Always excited to see places I'll never be able to go, physically.
That was definitely a No Way mine. I used to think a Rokon Trail Blazer would be just the ticket but with your drone and it’s 9-mile remote control range you can quickly reconnoiter a location in advance.
Thank you, Gly. We get older and sometimes wiser from our experiences, sometimes not.
Valiant effort, at 71 I know about the legs and being bent over for any length of time. Stay safe my friend, see you next Saturday, unless you fall out of your shorts again. lol
Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Dang,that mine was waaaaaay dangerous to go in.Yikes!!Take care good man 👍🙏👊👊👌
Our only concern, is that you stay safe out there Gly. Open or collapsed mines? Who cares, as your content is always great. SEEYA next Wednesday Friend.
Good stuff Gly , nice adventure.
Always need more Cowbell 🙂.
Pete Australia 🇦🇺
Always enjoy your videos and thanks for explaining the geology behind the mines
Love when you describe the geology all out of breath. Cracks me up. Don't know how you fit in there with those giant balls. 😄
You can see the vertical timbers in the back of the mine wicking up the water. I was nervous when you went past the vertical timber where the ceiling had caved in, and the rest of the crumbling roof was resting on it.
Good video.
That's some nasty altered ground they drove through. We have a couple spots of that stuff and they require ground support and constant attention. I've had to come in and muck out air-slacked material with an LHD before.
That entrance is a beautiful sight to see
I was re-watching your video on your stance on removing artifacts from mines. Reminds me of the old saying "take only pictures, leave only footprints"
Been laying here waiting for the video to drop so I can watch it and get my day started. Oh! And we all could use more Cowbell.
I always look forward to Saturday & a new Gly video
The best method of removing Jumping Choya spines is with a hair comb. Love your videos, keep on exploring.
not a mine for amateurs...., omg so remote....good to see your one of my mob, planning ahead ie the two way radios......better to be one step ahead than one step behind....anothe great video.....
Good morning from Syracuse NY brother and thank you for sharing your adventures
Hey Gly, congratulations on finding this one and remembering to bring your helmet👍👍
😂 👍
Lol, more Cowbell. I'm glad Bucket didn't have to remind you to take your Helmet this time! 😂🙏👌
Dig the bucket note! (More🐮🔔)
I feel bad it was clasped, you might have found some really neat artifacts, but you never know until you explore it, thanks for sharing 👍
Looking forward to your next episode!
Good morning Gly,,,,, superb scenery with drone at the beginning. Also excellent strategy on safety with the two way radio. Nice array of artifacts. Time doesn’t leave much of a trace for history. You were smart not to advance again. At least you had some adventures outside. Thanks for sharing the history again even after all this time , it’s still holds true that’s it’s the adventure that matters. Thanks again for keeping old history alive🫵😉🌟💫
Chuckle, love the little notes on the pail lid. I agree..... more cowbell ! ! !
Gly, Incredible view, (3:19) with your permission; I would like to use a still image for a screen saver on my phone. Thanks once again, you have made a terrific Saturday.
Thank you Gly. Again it had its moments of suspense and so glad you got out safely. Enjoyed seeing the external features of the mine. And i did see some brilliant blue sky before it became completely overcast. As always your photography and dialogue are first rate! I always look forward to 10 am Saturdays. Thanks again for all the work and dedication you put into your videos! Take care of yourself!
Yeah Gly we are really happy you brought us here too.
I’m the 33rd 👍 😳 Gly, I look forward to your productions every Saturday! Ultimately you have one job and that’s to return safely and do your editing :-)
What an awesome video Gly!
🤣 @ Noodle legs! Loved the music at the start of your video. Safe adventures.....
I literally LOL when the cacti attacked your thumbs! 😂I was out hunting for crystals and I sat in a cactus well I had those needles in my butt for almost a month! It was awful! Those things are awful and determined lol
Oh and just wanted to say GREAT IDEA for the two way radios!!! You just never know and they could be the one thing that saves your life given that kind of situation! And also, I can’t believe you went in there lol so glad you did and the video aired so I know you are ok!!! But everything about that entrance screamed DO NOT ENTER! Lol I appreciate your bravery Gly!!! :)
Founded in 1887 as the Los Angeles Pressed Brick and Terra Cotta Company, owner Charles H. Frost built this company into a leading supplier of brick and tile in Southern California. This first factory complex operated from 1887 until 1916 on a site bounded by College Street (on the north) Alpine Street (south), Cleveland Street (east) and an alley that is no longer in existence to the west. This factory produced fire brick, pressed brick, cream, buff, red, gray and old gold standard and Roman-shaped bricks until it ceased operation in 1916
Cool stuff man. Those bricks been out there a long time.
Gly, I ALWAYS have fun going along with you
26:40 some drone coverage would have been nice now i feel deprived haaha😂😂😂
Thanks for the effort Gly . At least you are trying for the awesome adventure.
I got you figured out. That's because I'm smart you see. " way radio is for talking to yourself, and the light on the back of your head is to see where you've been... Hehehe. Take care Gly. TTFN
Hiya Gly, wonder if you would ever consider making up identified sample box set of the mineral and rocks from the geology, perhaps that is hindered like the rocks you used to sell... its too bad there isn't a way to separate all that red tape
I thought it was somewhat funny when you said let's get to a safe spot.
I didn't see a safe spot in that whole mine !
Thanks Gly look forward to your videos every week!
The safe spot being outside 😊
That is one crazy and scary mine. When the music started I said, "MORE COWBELL"! Then you said the same thing, LOL. Did you find any history on this mine? Did they stop because of the dangerous soft rock? Was this a gold mine? Also, that is MR. NOODLE LEGS!
you got to know your limits, thats for sure, my dad went spaghetti legs on top of a mountain, had to walk back down a 2 hour walk, backwards. his legs would give out walking down forwards
Keep going down into that treacherous mine Gly, I ain't scared! 😁
Ohh Ya! More Cow Bell!
Comedy sure went downhill since those days.
Quite the remote location today , and that entrance was pretty well hidden there with all that growth at the portal . Could clearly see that vein they were chasing up in overhead . Sketchy to say the least ….. considering the crumbly rock it is running through. Better to stay cautious through situations like that rather than risk something else. Thanks again for my Saturday morning Gly “ FIX” 😉👍. Stay safe Man , and Happy Holidays from Us here in El Cajon , Ca. C-ya next time 🤞😊
Wow!!! Very scary mine. What a shame. Thanks again for sharing your adventures here in Australia.
Is it just me, or is that portal you crawled into an 1800s job that someone began working again in the 1950s? the way it's cut into the hill seems more hand-worked than the later ones do.
Would love to see more drone work up that hill; can see a trail up there.
Always More Cowbell ! LOL. Thank you. (1 of the best snl). Bricks look to be from 1915 from what I can find.
15:35 was a huge hanger rock over your head.
Scary
You should see the hangers in glys shorts! 🤪
Always a pleasure to go along with you even if it isn't a mine with good access. I can't think of anything I'd rather do then check it out
Well at least you remembered your helmet this weekend :)
Resubscribed today,I had unsubscribed a couple of episodes back because of too many ads, but I missed your channel so I came back and remembered how much I enjoy watching you. Thanks gly.
Hey, my boyfriend is into mineral hunting and he suggests that you get a high power 365nm wave length UV light to bring with you on your journeys underground. Look up the UV Beast, it’s very affordable for the power it packs. Just make sure it’s 365nm
👏 You wore your helmet! 😁 Kdng Still like the content! Great job
Wow! Super sketchy lookin mine! Hard to see why the miners put that much into it in the 1st place. Awesome!
So the question that must be asked... What was so valuable up on that hill for them to build the tresell and how did they get material to the big iron chute?
6:23 Those tan colored bricks are Fire bricks used for lining a kiln, chimney or a melt pot. The red bricks are just plain clay building bricks.
**I guess that's the mine exploring breaks....Kinda like a female I once knew: Looks good on the outside, but a little shallow on the inside. Still an interesting place! As always, the picture quality is very clear. See ya !
Slot canyons scare me too. What a fradycat !lol
got your helmet (Good Boy) LOL
At 26:32 I think I see another adit, in the upper-left corner of the frame. Might be an entrance to the upper levels of the mine.
Back in the day I used to go wandering in the desert on my own in and out of mineshaft the only time I got hurt I got a blister on my foot put a lot of moleskin on it and kept on going
Nice! I like the opening track
Wow, that was claustrophobic! I am glad to see that you know your limitations, some don't. I am sympathetic with the neuropathy, my feet go numb and left arm has a nerve path that constantly tingles. Do you have nerve pain besides the strength loss? Chemo can save your life but it comes at a cost. All aside I enjoy all your videos, thank you.
Gly, glad you got out that very sketchy mine....I was hoping to see some kool artifacts in the mine.....That old mine wont be there much longer..........The scenery was fantastic.....Thanks for the Video...................JB.👍
Of course::: fun-fun And LARGE THANKS GLY😊
Awesome intro music! You know what’s even more awesome? BEING ABLE TO GO INTO THIS MINE!!
Differnt acc been following you forever mohave desert tortoise was old acc if think anyway good stuff stay safe! always let people know where your going n such if your going alone!
Just thinking that those fenderwells look like part of a compressor housing.
When you find an extremely dangerous mine like this, do you post a sign or message to let anyone else who might come across it know that they really 100% I mean it not go in? Obviously a lot of these old mines are dangerous, but this one looked especially nasty, like it could come down any minute. I could tell you were eager to get out of there!
very dangerous-WOW
Great adventure and superb artifacts. Thank you for taking us with you.
Thank you, I really enjoy your films and I have learnt an awful lot from them.
That was not a very healthy first tunnel there wow very crumbly, hope there is a safe way in.
Overwatch..... That sounds like a good scheme to be part of. Will have to see if anything like this exists in the UK.
There it goes again, that bucket lid has the cure! Man, Gly your the Luckiest Dude i know. Going where only animals get water and don't go any further than that. That was bordering on reckless. My opinion, it would be better to blow that shut, no more entry. I'm with you about maintaining your health, vitamins... etc. Please stay safe.
“Gly”: It’s a race against time to document as many as possible before they do just that.
