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”: We have a real mystery here. What do you think is on the end of the yellow rope? Why would someone go through so much trouble to climb through such a small hole? They would’ve had to be REALLY skinny and they would’ve had to go feet first into the unknown. I can’t stop thinking what might be on the end of the rope. Your thoughts?
Maybe they never climbed down but dropped in a camera to view the footage afterward but it got snagged. There must be like, you know, I mean, uhm . . . ten years of footage on it by now. You need one of them thar "weasel cams." Or, there is a pack or a knot at the end. It is probably not as exciting as you think. A body would be cool, but not of the poor weasel.
I commented I thought hopefully nobody was at the end of the yellow rope. I was going to subscribe you on 5 of my families accounts but noticed my comment can't be seen from this account. What would cause my comment to be hidden.
Could be that guy that went missing looking for the "M cave"...lol
“Gly”: This has happened before with other people’s accounts. I don’t know what the issue is, RUclips can be quirky sometimes.
A skeleton!
good example why to bring rope and gear ..... can't wait to see you guys get into the larger shafts ......imagine what is down there waiting for you ...... keep'em coming sonny Jim
“Gly”: I think I’m going to find what’s hanging on the end of that yellow rope Jeff. 💀 Stay tuned!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces hell yes!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces If you need someone skinnier and crazier than you, Jeff could do it.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces no doubt you will ..... hope they are not hungry
Big eyes sleestak
Yipee Mr M is back absolutely brilliant what a shame about his knee hope he makes a quick recovery and soon as this came up it was a watch straight away love this channel one of the best on RUclips take care and keep safe Love from Lincolnshire England
Also from Lincolnshire England and also love this channel!
I’d say when that wrung snapped it up’d the “pucker” factor a little! 🤣
Yes, Gly we all appreciate those “Don’t try this at home moments” that you bring to us.
Mr. M - Take Care of that Knee, Glad to see Randy Back and Gly - Stay Safe... Long Time, Supporter - Thanks Again...
Gly.... You officially graduate in "old man noises" class...... Great explore guys.... Saturdays can't be more fun....
Wel, well, well... The 3 stooges are back together again I see. Gly is Moe, Mr. M is Curly, Randy is Larry. Love the adventures you take us on every week. I'm glad you can wiggle down those tight spots. Beautiful scenery. Stay safe guys. Relax that knee Mr. M. we 'kneed' you out there.
I jumped from choppers in Viet Nam in 1969, but you my man are crazy. Jerry Orr
I'm glad you found the connection to the shaft. Too bad you couldn't have dropped a gopro about 20' down through that hole around the collapse.
Thank you Randy it looks like we'll be seeing a lot more of you thank you for all you do
Oops, I pulled the trigger too quick. Mister M's show came up yesterday (Friday). Besides your Wednesday teaser, I think more people would see Lost/Forgotten Footage if he ran it every Friday, the day before your show. It also makes a great lead-in to today's show....
Best wishes for a fast recovery to Mr. M, I hope nothing serious happened at this accident.
We use to go down in the mines in Tombstone Az when I was growing up we would strap a couple cases of brew and homemade torches and explore thank god the ladders always held up
"isn't that scary lookin... That means it's more fun"
I really do like videos with randy, he’s a nice addition to the show, hope to see him on more duo adventures w/Gly
I keep waiting for you to drop that camera rig. Why in ** do you not have some sort of safety strap on that thing ?!
“Gly”: I had a strap, it constantly gets in the way and snags on things.
"Wow, I gotta be flippin' crazy." -- Gly, 2021, saying what we thought in 2019 :-D
Hey Gang, well Gly I think I have finally seen a ladder that was questionable to you. Thanks for the amazing episode and congratulations on finding that connector. Glad all three of you are back together. Mr. M take it easy on the knee we need you along to add your special spice to the episodes. Take care all and looking forward to the next one.
the pirate adventure music in the intro is entertaining every time
I concur.
Amazing sound effects! So that's what painstaking sounds like, passing a gallstone. Sorry, couldn't help myself. You guys are, like Tony, the tiger would say GREAT!!
Let's get the boys to 140k! It'll be a win-winze! 👍😄
Looking forward for your show all week :)
Me too😎
Yaa!Yeah!!
AaFP, coffee, eggs, bacon its a beautiful Saturday
Lol @ "Look, maw, no hands! (14:59)" Gly, tempting fate yet again. Hey, I'm showing 132k subs; growing so fast!
Well Gly, I must say that first step was eye opening... :-) I thought that was going to be a Loony Toon Eye Popping moment... Lol
Damn Mr M. sorry to hear about the knee. I have the same issues with my left one from a small kid accident. Take care you 3 musketeers!
Thanks for the video!
LLAP
@Abandoned and Forgotten Place Please use a rubber mat or even a jacket, to protect the rope from rubbing as it’s going over edge. I’ve already seen one accident when someone didn’t protect the rope. “It’ll be alright” is what he always said …. Until the day it wasn’t alright! Luckily he only fell 20 feet when the rope failed. Now he always takes a rubber mat to protect the ropes from rubbing. Stay safe and look after the penguin fluffers 😉
@@martinr1834 I think more would protect their ropes after seeing a close friend fall due to a rope failing, because it hadn’t been protected. It’s not a nice thing to whiteness - especially when they’re looking iight nto your eyes as they fall!
Mmm pop tarts and a new episode from Gly Coolness! Best part of Saturday morning!!
[slides his 2nd pop tart under a book] =)
I love the show Gly, and can't thank you enough for bring the adventure to my home each week! I was always an outdoors/adventureous type of person, but because of health issues; I'm unable to get out and hike and do what I love to do. I always look forward to your show each week! thanks again and God Bless!
“Gly”: Thank you!
Good job Gly.....Hope Mr. M is ok............also good job Randy...............JB..........
All my life I had the same knee problem as does Mr. M. Mine started when I was deep into high school sports....ruined much in my following years and caused embarrassing moments even when I was still young in my 20ss. i just arrived from Germany and his friends from both the university and military school and wives of those who were married had prepared a huge welcoming party for me and I blew it within the first 10 minutes: I wanted to admire one of the babies crawling on the blanket with its mother sitting next to it and I lowered myself on my knees....Bad mistake! My bum-knee chose right their to cracked real loud, I let out a squeal of pain, turned pale and passed out. (Never ever happened before or ever since and I am 82) now! I ended up in the emergency room with a cast the next day. They used to cast stuff they would never dream of doing now. We still had the party and many of us stayed in touch. However, just like Mr M. my knee popped on and off throughout my life and often put me out of commission , yet there was nothing that could be done about it. I never succumbed to the temptation of having surgery and eventually realizes what a good choice that was. (Sorry doctors! You know what I mean...leave knees alone unless the bone sticks out or the knee cap turned backwards) I am 82, still climbing the 16 steps of our stilt home numerous times daily! But even there I stepped "wrong" but always going downstairs at least 4 times in the past 20 years and was stuck upstairs for days. So Mr. M. , look at it this way: at least you were not deep inside a mine and the rescuers had to come a drag you out! I bet your Mary has no sympathy for you and told you a hundred times to watch your knee and not do stuff like that! :). I know I don't just speak for myself if I say we will be just as happy as you do everything you did up to now, be part of everything, man the 'Schnozzer-5000', make some of your videos , do your crazy rides with Gly in Bob and we will be happy while you pamper that knee! You don't need to climb up ...or down. Just be there! --------- Gly, I don't know what to say after what you did today! That was insane! I was so afraid when you pulled that yellow rope that it was either going to a\cause the rest of the collapse or you'll pull out some bones attached to it from the last mas wiggling through there! The latter could still be true because no one could co through after the collapse, so how did the rope get there? There could be a man attached to it buried under debris! Why else would someone leave this rope behind? He never told anyone about going down there and his name would still be among the missing!
“Gly”: It’s a real mystery! Maybe when I go down the shaft there’ll be a drift that goes the direction of the yellow rope and I’ll look up and see it hanging from a stope.
Mr. M: hey I'm back
mine shaft: not for long :/
I bet part of your anatomy got extra watertight when that rung snapped. Let's hope there isn't a previous explorer dangling on the end of that yellow rope. Great video as ever Gly.
“Gly”: It’s a real mystery! I wanna know where that rope goes!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces I think I can foresee what the next video will be about.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces it's almost a" gotta' do it" now.
Prayers for Mr M
Great follow up 👍 Those reverse ladders/combo skip ladders have always looked sketchy , especially when they're not notched in ! Will be great to see the follow up on the previous one also ! Be safe to you guys 😉
I love that Jeep lol it makes me jealous, mine is an '06 Wrangler but it's stock to the BONE, with a stock bottle jack under the passenger seat, (for some reason) 17 inch wheels and zipper windows and everything! 😇👍
But, at least I've been able to roll the vinyl top back open the last few weeks, in this extreme heat up around here just North of Seattle! So, that's a plus. ➕
I guess I'm mostly jealous of those giant tires, mine looks so wimpy in comparison lol but I still love it.
"Energy requirement directly proportionate to body mass." (HeH)
Gly: we do appreciate everything you do. Especially the strenuous things. I hope the old timer is OK. (LOL I am 70...)
Whew! Gives new meaning to "gettin' the shaft'!!
Hopefully there isn't a person at the end of the yellow rope.
One of these days Gly you're going to meet a sleestack in one of those tunnels. =)
😂👍
I've been watching all the episodes from the beginning and they brought back really good memories for me. Stuck in lockdown during Covid, I was off on another adventure with you. You all didn't know this but you were a great comfort through some really tough times. I hope my support, big hugs, love and prayers will help you through yours. I can't tell you how much these adventures have meant to me.
Your camera is so good quality its like we are with you down there bro,nice interesting video,thank you so much for sharing and stay safe,thumb's up as usual... ;-)
“Gly”: I try to edit it in such a way to make you feel like your right there with me. I’m happy you’re enjoying it!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces
KUDOS
So love being there with you all. No musty smells thanks. Sleestak stink
Randy needs a better helmet than a bike helmet.
Gly, the miner comedian...
Excellent to see the safety precautions WORK! Best of Luck from New York!
Saturday's wouldn't be the same without you, Randy and Mr M. Appreciate all you guys do to entertain and educate me. Thanks!
Being crazy keeps you from being lazy keeps the mind clear an not hazy as pops always said good stuff guy’s sorry on the knee mr m, about 5 seconds of butt pucker on the ladder glad you roped off pretty cool mine as always be safe 👍👍👍👍👍
Gly, Mr. M, and Randy, you three gents are doing some awesome and amazing exploring. I gotta say it's NUTS, but I love the shows.
Keep em going!!! and Thanks
Very interestingly crazy 😜 Glad I didn’t miss this!!!💕
Good morning from Rienzi Mississippi love the videos stay safe. Mr. M hope you recover soon will say a prayer for you.
Good morning everybody from north Padre island 🏝 Good to see Mr.M" back !
The ladder wasn’t for garden gnomes…it was for Tommyknockers!!!
Mr. M, I love your channel! Glad you're back. Take care of that knee. Gly, thanks for being, ah, brave enough (and/or crazy enough) to show us the depths of the mines!
Lived in Nevada for many MANY years. While I do like the area generally, the geological layout gets to you. No Trees, no green...nothing. I have since moved to the midwest and I REALLY enjoy it. The ONLY thing I would like to have back is the low humidity. Other than that, I don't miss it.
TVR: we purchased an abandoned mine. Now we're removing collapse, mucking..
Gly: challenge accepted! We've taken a shovel...😂I expected:"Randy, can you bring that ore car here?" Crazy episode! I don't think it's possible to dig out that winze without shoring up, so mystery of that rope stands forever. Tbh, those inverse ladders are not reliable by definition! Why don't they just put another bar over normal ladders? And what do you think about "all rungs broken, all floors and supports vanished"-shaft mystery you filmed with torpedo?
Thank you so much for your footage and show love this mine stuff. Being in the uk don't get to see this kind of stuff love it thank you so much
Another great adventure guys, take care of that knee Mr. M, God only gave us two. I have to have both replaced and on the 22nd, I have to have my back evaluated for surgery. You guys are lucky to still do that climbing and exploring. Gly, Randy and Mr. M stay cool and careful. 👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸❤
My favorite sleestak hunt without the dogs or the Canary.. KUDOS. Love the fines , throat catchy, morsels.MSHA makes us wear dust counters & noise meters.
Glad you guys made it out of another mine! Speedy recovery for Mr. M.
Thanks for having quality channels!
Gly....will be sending to you and Randy 2 pairs of those new men's under-ware with the built in pouch!! Size xxxl!!!!!
Rest up and heal fast, Mr. M.! Great Video Gly, you were definitely channeling Frank in this one, thankfully the camera work didn't suffer for it. Har har. Thanks Gents
No stopey goodness today... Is Gly by any chance from Wisconsin? Because there was something very badger-y about that scramble into the bottom of the shaft! A *live* badger, thank goodness. That trip down the winze gave me the willies.
just wondering if you've ever found 100+-year-old human skeletons in old abandoned mines?
Been watching you channel for quite awhile now and it just keeps getting better and better. Come on 140,000 subscribers! Wanna see what’s down in the deepest part of that other mine. Go get em Gly and crew! Watch Mr. M. We want home nice and healthy.
Well this ol squirrel was having a good day, but after watching your episode, I'm having a GREAT day. That was a terrific mine to explore. It was good to see Mr. M as well. Any thought of putting your camera through that small hole to see where it led to?
Those ladders in the mines always made me a little nervous. They look ladders but apparently some are ladder like objects. This looked like particularly sketchy descent. Just using a head mounted gopro might of worked a little better when it's this rough.
If it was me exploring and the first step on the ladder snapped, I would take it as a sign and go home. LoL. Great job exploring! Be very very careful!
You guys need one of those big blue collapsible tents for Mr. M. when you're Shnoz'ing.
Great episode, sorry the shaft was blocked I bet you could have gone possibly another
200 foot deeper :)
Looking forward to next weeks episode :)
I follow your adventures with great apriciation.
A question. I know it would be a lot of extra work in editing but would it be possible to release a 360 Virtual Reality video from your 360 camera? We are some guys using therse VR headsets and it would be awesome to get into the mine and get a true feel for the size.
Again, it would be some work for you in editing to stabelize and edit it, but just one..?..
That was great I always watch your explorers, that yellow rope at the cave-in I hope that someone was trapped down there before you went down to explore. 👍👍👍👍
Nebraska watching! We like it but not worth die for it. I like the dates on the wall's and names and history with it.
Hi to a fellow Nebraskan!
@@michelleholliday5136 Hello
Well you guys did it... you broke the first rung and Mr M while you were at it!?! Is that a Beatles tune .. an intelligent octopus 🐙? Man dude that rope at the bottom where the collapse of the wall made short work of your day.. those are some sketchy ladders 🪜that you came up .. last weeks footage... can't even turn a shovel around in there! That's another fine mess you've gotten me into, Stanley...
Ugh...
I hope Mr M's knee is okay! 🙏
The gallon Coca-Cola bottle you found looks like the ones for the syrup used by soda fountains in the ‘50’s, when it was mixed with soda water right at the counter. Just not the fancy stainless steel containers it comes in today. You could buy the syrup from the drug store to settle a kid’s upset stomach back then. Thanks for some beautiful and exciting videos!
Makes me wonder if someone was on the end of that rope when the shaft collapsed down it looked tight.
Maybe that collapse was purposely caused by one sleestak disposing of another.
See, they've said it for how many years? "Watch that first step, it's a doozie!"
Why did they put the rungs on the back side? Trusting a 6d nail seems dumb
This stuff is really cool for an arm chair explorer.Not to sound dumb ok? Somebody carved that shaft with a bucket & pick ? Did he see a real gold vain and follow it or was he just digging think it looked like it could have gold?
Geez it's amazing to me how much VOLUME of rock those old timers were able to remove from the mine just using the equivalent of a wheelbarrow at a time. Those old miners were tough!
Gly, something that bothers me. How difficult would it be, to rig a nylon harness to go over your head and shoulder. Put a Caribiner or D-ring on one end to hold your big camera. That way, you could swing it behind you, to your side or in front of you while climbing. Another alternative, hang the camera from your waist belt while climbing/descending. It REALLY bothers me that you don't have Both Hands while you're climbing or descending. IF something happened... ladder or rung(s) failed, something falls on you, you lose your footing and you had to grab something to save 'Mama Gly's Little Boy,' that camera's going to the bottom! OK, that said, it was another fantastic show! They just get better and better.............
“Gly”: I’ve tried many different methods but either the camera is pointed in the wrong direction or I keep hitting the camera rig on the back of the mine. The camera is on and rolling when climbing ladders so I can capture the shot so it always needs to be pointed in somewhat the right direction. The helmet cam works OK for this but nothing captures the shot better than the camera rig. It’s a bit of a hassle but I don’t mind.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces You might ought to get a wrist or clip lanyard for the thing though, just a loose one. As it is, you have one shot at keeping your grip if it got bumped and wrested loose... and even if it's unusable footage during, if you're mid-climb and need that hand with nowhere to set it, you can just let the camera dangle for a moment.
To be fair to the ladder .. it was turned inside out so they could hoist a tugger bucket up it like rails, and there were no notches for the rungs to sit into . Even my svelte 6' 135lbs probably would have had issues going down old ladders like that . Ropes are a life line . Miss you M, heal fast .
Hi Guy and Mr. M. Would like to know
the Music that Mr. M plays on his videos
Abandon and Forgotten Footage.
I finally subscribed, sorry i didnt do so sooner. Ive been following the channel for close to a year now. Thank you for all your hard work and the risks you guys take to show us this stuff before its all sealed up for good. Itd be neat to see you guys team up with Ghost Town Living. I said the same thing on one of his videos too
Nice to see you ⭐️👍Mr M!, ⭐️👍you are going to need some armor for those knees, maybe some nailers or some sports gear, carhart has some double duck double front heavy duty jeans that have pockets over the knees to stuff in a little bit of knee protection, not much but some, and they were pretty good, Just take a month of Sundays to get some of the stiffness out, no good for hot weather, maybe some knee and elbow gear for skateboarding I don't know, I just know that my knees are pretty screwed up and I would need to protect them
Certain type of nuts indeed! Big Gigantic Nuts! Got some balls to make that dissent, whew!!
Gee shovel I would have been tempered to dig and clear part of the shaft collapse, of course I saw several boards stacked up too, may have been able to clear it up. Yellow rope hung up maybe a body on the end of it ... LOL thanks for taking us along.
Can't decide if you took one too many blows to the head, or have balls the size of coconuts! heh heh heh NOT a hole you'd find me in! As always good job.
Your a mad man... but it makes great content.
“Gly”: Thanks!
I watch a lot of these mine videos yours are among 2 or 3 that are the best. Explanations in commentary that are detailed with geology, what miners were after, construction etc, great camera work and pictures and a willingness to don full safety gear to explore dangerous areas which are often skipped by others somewhat younger and less adventurous. Others often don't even give the name of mine or if unknown the approximate location. All this makes them the most interesting. My regret is I never got a chance to do this when young.
Pretty amazing exploration. Thanks guys.
I think, Randy would have fitted into that hole. He is skinny. But I guess, u will find the other end of that winze, where the air is coming from.
18:06 I swear something from down below threw a rock “up” at you from down below.
Hello, good to see you again! Wonderful blessed program. You have a voice that's feels good to listen to a story teller☆ thanks 😊
If you could only have cleaned up that shaft it would have been a Reverse-Schnazzolation!
Don't know guys twisted knee, first step giving in, maybe this should be an adventure for another day
I thought people that clime mountains we'er nuts buy your on a other level you got bigger balls then me and I'm half crazy!!
I wouldn't say that step was scary, but Randy can you please grab me a fresh pair of underwear? LOL
Question about this. In Frank's new video after going through the skinny hole and down a ways further he also got to a shaft. But the shaft where you guys were in this video, it appears you are at the bottom or at least on a plug.
So, does this mine connect to two different shafts at different depths?
Good morning from Arizona🌵 Your a Superman Gly. Be safe.
Reverse ladder, to drag an ore bucket up, I was wondering why the rungs were reversed so that when you stepped on them it pushes them off the vertical 2 X 4.
