I was pretty hesitant when it came to exploring this abandoned mine especially when every mine report on this location said it had bad air. Will curiosity kill the cat or will I make some amazing discoveries?

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...

Yeah we have lots of similar wet mines in BC. Some are even frozen! Oh and congratulations you finally passed me on the subscriber count!
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota Mr. Frank
“Gly”: See… what did I tell ya… devilishly handsome good looks and a charming personality wins the day. 😂 Lol. Thanks Frank!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Boy! is that ever a "togune in cheek? remark.....ha,ha.(got the joke). Both of you are some great explorers.
2 questions.
First question: where on earth is BC?
Second question: would it be correct to assume a frozen mine is more dangerous than one that isn't frozen?
I've honestly never even heard of a frozen mine.
I know mine water is generally cold, but yikes.
@@jakehildebrand1824 British Columbia, Canada
Loved the opening drone shots! I never fail to appreciate the high quality of your videos - excellent lighting. Thanks for another adventure, Gly.
It’s not even that good lol
@@devinb5937 you’re joking right?!
I have to agree 100% All his videos show his effort and dedication!
@@devinb5937 He tried and he did good. His opening skills have improved a lot if you've seen older videos.
I love his vids coz iv bin in a coal mine before
The more I watch these videos. The more I want to become a Miner or study rocks and geology or something! This channel is amazing and thank you for explaining lots of the stuff you see, it’s really fascinating. Keep up the great work!
From the beautiful opening to the waterfall and the prolific signage, the poured concrete floors in the buildings and the concrete in the mine, you have found a great, interesting site.
I'm now anxious for the next followup video. It bothers me that people can't simply visit a place, take only pictures and leave only footprints. Pulling walls apart, breaking nearly anything they can find, truly reveals the lack of respect for the history of the operation. And it spoils the place for those who visit later. Thank you for making the trek and recording it.
Yay! More video of the forgotten mines. Good morning Gly, and yt family. Happy 4th of July weekend everyone! Happy birthday America and I love the mine videos you bring to us...thank you!
💞😊❤🇺🇸
Your opening cinematography never ceases to amaze me. The folks in Hollywood could learn a few things.
From a country song. "Know when to walk away..."
From a movie. "A man's gotta know his limitations."
Both are great pieces of advice when exploring abandoned buildings or mines. It's great to see someone with the right gear and the right outlook posting on RUclips.
Also I just found out that back in the day my dad worked in the mine! It was on top of the world or close to it in the Globe, Miami area of Az. He explained a lot of things to me! I now understand more about stopes and drifts! Makes it easier to follow along when you understand things lol! Miners had it rough! That’s for sure! They aren’t appreciated enough imo! And I appreciate you for dedicating yourself to going into these places as dangerous as it is! Do you ever get scared being hundreds of feet in a mine!?! I get scared just watching lol so thank you for your hard work and knowledge! 🙏 Becareful in there!!
the caves you have been finding in your videos that the miners have mined into are very interesting to us. we would love to poke our heads into them to see all the formations! keep up the great work!
“Gly”: If you ever get out to Nevada email me, I have the coordinates to some really awesome cave locations. 👍
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces can this apply to me also!? That would be a dream come true! It’s a bucket list number for me!
Gly once again you have stuned us with your awsomness. Your content and edit is second to none! Discovery channel doesnt have a chance with what you do, go teach those guys a thing or two! Absolutely stunning sir. Stay safe Mr. E
Hey Gly, I work as a underground coal miner on the longwall in a very wet mine and we have a serious underground waterfall we are moving our longwall in 3 weeks close to that waterfall. we pump close to 25million gallons a day out of our mine. Wonderful video Gly.
GLY…. Splush , splash,, I was taking a bath on a Saturday…anyway if the miners could see u now . They would probably say that man has stamina and dedication written all over him . The transparency in this episode is outstanding in this video. I am loving your charisma every video you put out GLY . Such impressive work you display. Also I am putting in a good word for OLD BOB ,, that five gallon bucket just so happens to be for his tip jar,,hahahaha. So I’ll gladly start filling that up. Always a huge supporter of your platform and thank you for having me aboard. Wishing you much continued success and happiness GLY . Your an awesome guy in my book . Thank you so much .
Love the old growth, dense scrub forests. Some places are really nice.
Great places if you like silence and solitude.
I’ve been watching itchy boots for a long time,fantastic channel🇦🇺
Gly, I would absolutely love to see a collaboration of you and Brent at Cerro Gordo exploring the union mine
OMG I HAVE BEEN THINKING THAT FOR A WHILE NOW! I was just watching some of Brent’s videos the other day and was wondering if Gly has ever been there or if he has a plan to! That would be an epic video!!!
Another awesome adventure so far Gly ,
Keen for more as usual 👍.
Frank would love this mine, nice and wet 😀.
Pete Australia 🇦🇺
I'm 42 seconds in and so floored by your editing. VERY nice work Gly. I appreciate the effort!
Motion picture quality! 👍
Don't forget Itchy boots is a geologist by training. Been following her since she rode from India to The Netherlands on an Enfield
Just an absolutely awesome video of what looks to be a big mine! Gly, I hope you didn't get lost coming out of that mine! I don't think I would ever choose to explore mines that are that wet. So I appreciate even more the sacrifice you made to go in that mine! Can't wait for the next video.
I would probably leave the mine alone and stay out, we would love to see many more of your episodes it's not worth your life, WE NEED YOU GLY for more adventures ❤️ Looking forward to your next episode!!!!
If Gly was my man he would have me scared to death half of the time...worrying about his safety. He is a guy who lives dangerously...lives right on the edge but its part of his likeability. Be safe out there Gly! 🙏🏽
I concur.
Thank you GLY for another most excellent episode! It's too bad that Brent doesn't have a robust water source like this mine has. If you are watching A&FP I think that you know who I am referencing to. I hope that some day GLY can join Brent in an expansive exploration of that mine. I am sure that it would be awesome!
Agree 100%! I bet Brent would appreciate just a fraction of that water here in this mine! Wouldn’t it be great to see a collaboration with Gly and Brent!?
Gly iam 65years old I so wish I could walk through with you I could learn so much from you and being with you I would feel safe I love your show wished I could be there in like a class 1 mine I still wouldn't do it with out having you as a guide
Thank you for bringing us this very interesting and informative video presentation. This is certainly a major mine with a huge amount of work that had gone into it, which may yet have a future as far as having further excavations of ore. The outbuildings were very impressive too. Thank you for the work that you put into the productions.
EPIC drone sequence to start this episode Gly! Great job! 😎👍
VERY enjoyable. Thanks so much for sharing with us! Can't wait to see more. Be safe!
I had on headphones, and that waterfall is a hidden treasure. Frank can be all blasé about wet mines, but you don't catch too many. ;) Can't wait to see part 2.
Awesome explore Gly, all the best from Oz. Stay safe..............
Another great explore Gly. Thank you for such good content and video quality. Looking forward to next week as usual. Stay safe and healthy.
enjoy the history and the buildings along with the mines themselves, the drone gives an extra perspective too. Thank you
I don’t remember the last time you were in a wet mine! This one is amazing but the bad air was really quite worrying. Glad you were cautious about it. Oh and Happy July 4th for Monday from the UK.
One of my fav episodes Gly. I loved the atmospheric values the mine has. It is great to see that not all mines are in safe, pristine condition. Take care, regards Ken
I’m confused. Why is it great to see a mine NOT in a safe condition?
Gly, you continue to impress me with your professional production. Outstanding show............. Thank you!
I love watching your videos! It was a toss up of watching golf on tv or you...I choose you every time! LOL ;)~
ol scratchy foots has gotta nice combination of good music and beautiful scenery..rides a bike and flys a drone atta same time
Itchy Boots is awesome! She's from Sweden or Denmark I think. Some great solo adventures. Be cool if yall got together and you showed her a mine, when she comes through the SW.
Happy birthday America and Canada! This loos like a mine from BC with all the water :-) Peace
Ok this mine is right up my alley, can't wait for next week Thanks Gly✌️ Napa California
In the "workshop" building, I suspect the tool base was for a crane to lift cars on and off the tracks. Being located at the end of the tracks inside the build makes it easy to put a cart anywhere in the shop you want, and just as easy to put it back on the tracks.
Beryl (beryllium aluminum silicate), is the more common Be ore, often associated with tungsten ores. Beryl's noteworthy minerals are aquamarine (iron impurity) or Emerald (Chromium or Vanadium impurity), although the pure form is usually white.
Thanks Pete for the geolocial info.
Hey Gly, Your explores/videos are truly amazing!
Would you consider making a video that details the gear that you use, maybe some of the specialized techniques required, dangers involved and how to avoid problems, etc.? Stuff that could help those of us just getting into this type of exploration?
Thanks,
Ziggy 👍
Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing. You mentioned Itchy Boots I already follow her channel as well. Super cool
Thank you for your videos, I look forward to watching them.
Amazing water fall. Wallet were solid yellow. not good. See you next week. Stay safe
.
Checked out Itchy Boots channel before you mentioned it. I love the fact that she is well researched. She explains about the areas that she visits in a thorough manner. I really enjoy her content. I really enjoy your content as well. great channel. Keep up the great work!
Been following since you were in the 20K Subs - enjoy the program!
I like the background music during the "thumbnail", the way it diminishes as you "roll" to the portel. Quite the mountainous ridges in that area!! An "eyefull" for us mid-westerners. Water/sm. creek draws wildlife (for drinking), therefore snakes come for the sm. animals. (or is elevation too high?) At 29:57, cool flow stone. The mine is so deep into the mt. ridge that there are "cave scours" from water movement. We know that you walked it all, but thanks for the sped up parts. ALOT of Sulfide on the walls as you walk to the waterfall. Quite a ladder at 37:30!! (nope, not today, this ones not for Gly)ha,ha. As the credits scroll, the ridge above the camp looks like Limestone, so thats why there are cave features within the adet. It makes me nervous to watch searches/explores of mines with water in them. (Can't get over those that "HAVE NO FEAR".) This "explore" was a great find and a super film! Thanks again.
Thanks Gly, stay safe
Thanks!
Loved the waterfall. Thanks.
Happy 4th Gly! Big luvs from NH 🇺🇸
Thanks for this week's adventure. I've been enjoying the travels of Itchy Boots, as well. Stay safe.
I think this was my favorite opening of all your episodes. Many thanks for letting us be armchair explorers with you.
Here in the land of Oz, your show drops, late Sat - Sunday morning. I often find myself experiencing moments of anxiety, waiting for the " show", to begin. Gly.. You are by far, the best RUclips abandoned mine explorer out there. Know i've said it before, but your efforts in bringing us the best quality in viewing, is first class. Know you take all precautions out there, and that you don't seem to have a death wish {unlike that other guy you mentioned }.. Just be careful you don't get shot in the arse.. You Americans and your guns🤪🤪
Here we go again, you and your channel recommendations. Now I have stuck and need to watch all of this Itchy Boots channel videos. about 1 year ago I watch all your videos if you remember? :D
love ur recent editing . like I've said before I've explored many abandoned mines in northeast Washington. I'd love to fly out and meet you and see if we can explore depths. level 3 bud. my background has provided me with an abundance of safety and send it moments. hand in hand
Very cool location , beautiful country ! I have to make one correction tho - in the one building is a Cold water heater or water heater , you don't have to heat hot water ! 🥴😎
I wish we had mines like this in Germany.
I would like to explore these.
But after Episode 112 I would not recommend you to explore German forgotten places.
Most of these we call "Lost Places".
And most of them are WW2 bunkers. And you can still feel what the people were doing down there back then.
I'm not a believer but what I've felt in some places...
Let me say that, I'd like to have a guardian angel down there.
Oh and I'm still happy after all these years that you beat cancer.
Stay safe.
Nice aerial footage. Now, that is what I call country roads. Thumbnail that view. I'm expecting the Batmobile to pull up, ha ha ha. Hey, they hit a water main. Sorry frank is not up to a cold shower.
This mine as you noted was really dark, thanks for taking us through this one. I suppose all of that water would be snowmelt unless there is a lake up topside. A natural born Canadian Water Spaniel like Frank would love that mine.
Happy 4th of July Gly! Have a blessed weekend and adventures! 🇺🇲
You need to check out ghost town living with Brent Underwood at Cerro Gordo and go down his mines! In sure you would love it! He has done so much to preserve this old ghost town. I'm sure you would love it. 😀
That opening shot with that drone...wow..it looked so inviting
Old bobs looking good Gly, extreme Bob !!!
Yes, yes, I am a viewer of Noraly and Itchy Boots.
She has an education in geology and she is headed from Mexico through US to Alaska. Maybe you can do a colab visit with her?
I really enjoy your channel
Was hoping someone would suggest that!!. Two great RUclipsrs.
I think Better Bob and Alaska would enjoy driving out to unexplored mines!
This was awesome to listen to with headphones on. I could hear it getting louder and louder as you got close to the drift. Thanks once again for all your hard work to show us all these awesome places.
Oh my, those cable marks in the timber and rock at 37:27
2:05 OK, now THAT was an intro! 😃
Thanks for schooling the viewer on bad air. I hadn't a clue what you meant till you explained it. Another way you reach your audience well!!
Wow ye the opening scene great quality and drone footage but that music is epic!
You should invest in an LEP flashlight. Pretty much a laser beam flashlight, it’ll let you look way deep into tunnels. Maybe add a UV flashlight also.
🇨🇦 Wow that was good I wear head fones all the time watching your shows. It sounds better hat you don't hear with out hdfones on. That water fall was really cool. That lumber looked rotted thou. Be safe eh.
Can't wait till next week to see the rest
What an epic mine! I can't wait to see next weeks video already. I love big mines like this. I knew there had to be ore chutes in those tunnels to the left. I can only imagine the stopes and other workings that they built this massive tunnel for.
Another outstanding episode.
Nice sinister sound when in fast forward!!!!
Heard the water at 35:50....Awesome drone footage...& great mine video. It was like I was there,....thanks so much for sharing Gly.
Every episode keeps getting better , well done just cant get enough of your episodes. Love your taste of music
Gotta say I appreciate your taste in music! Have added a few to my favorites. Cheers!
It's your mineiest mine yet! Great viddy!
when i saw the twinkies, i was sure i had seen this mine before on youtube and why remember, because Shango used to put twinkies inside the mines he visited and if i remember correctly i was before he split his main channel off, with a seperate mining channel like yours and when i saw the waterfall i was sure, the only difference with the waterfall, when he visited it, their was no rope attached to the ladder and looking forward to part 2 of this mine
Awesome drone shots and that mine is dark, just eats up the lights. The colors are so impressive. The waterfall is cool coming from the snow melt from those gorgeous mountains. Wow what a mine. And a reminder folks don't kick Gly's bucket, it might fight back.
Been patiently waiting this morning...lol
This makes my Saturday sweeter now that I have this to watch later this evening. Thanks Gly!
Miss seeing collaborations with you and Mister M.
You should come down under one day especially western Australian Pilbara and goldfields sooooo many abandoned mines
Nice cold mine in the hot state of Nevada, the wood rot is highly reminiscent of Canadian mines, any timber works usually rot away because of the extreme temperature changes and high moisture levels. A wet mine always rots wood. Kind of an unusual mine for Nevada, must be in the northern part of the state. Loved the intro and the way you used the music to influence the imagery, once again, well done Gly!!! Can't wait for the next episode!
Honestly, your cinematic drone shots always leave me in awe.
Nice one Gly well you got running water and that will bring in oxygen with it go up the big ladder and follow it
Great adventure for the birthday weekend of this beautiful country called America! Thanks Gly!
Yippee more videos! Happy early fourth July Gly! Great video! Awesome job on your channel! You always do excellent work on your videos. 😁💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
The U S 0f A, is 246 years old this 4th. of July birthday. I'm so glad that I was born here.
I really like this episode. Be honest I've gotten board of the same type of mines you explore are all the same. Interesting to see a wet mine and timbers. Color of the blue was more amazing when it was wet.
“Gly”: If Forest Gump explored mines he’d say…
29:25 Hostess Zingers! My favorite pastry snack! Who needs TWINKIES?!?
As always Gly... thanks for sharing the adventure!!!
That mine has some of the strangest ground I've seen before.
Wow Gly, that intro gave me goose bumps, I can see why you gave it that music with a backdrop like that. This is the wettest mine I've seen you explore yet, other than one's that are flooded.
Definitely a "Frank ladder". LOL. Nice to see some of the buildings too. Thank you Gly.
Nice work again Gly very polished performance
Hey!!! 🤦 you kicked the bucket 3X’s at the cliff hanger! 😳 😂😂 🤔 🤙
The title of this video sounds really interesting... an underground waterfall? And the beginning of the video was awesome. Everyone have a great 4th of July weekend. Ohh and you too Gly!
Gly on the percussion mouse, DA-DA-DA-DAAA....DA! Great intro Gly. George.
