These caves would make a good collab with aquachigger.
Speelee is the Greek word for cave. So now you know how to pronounce speeleeology.
@@joekidwell4773just posted the same thing. Cool dude!
@aquachigger
15:46 is it just me or was that a golf ball
MATT! I am a professional CAVE DIVER here in Mexico, would love to come to the ranch and explore to see if the water passages lead any further!
@OfftheRanch - this might be your guy! We want more content of this kind no matter what it takes!!!!
Oh man get this guy over there!
This is the man!
Matt! I am with this guy. I have explored caves my entire life, and lead other professional cavers into them. I have all the equipment to come out.
make this happen
We absolutely need to have an entire "Exploring The Ranch" series, this was an epic episode.More please Matt.
He could take a weekend and hike, camp, and explore the entire property
Ranch walk: Matt's new podcast they walk the ranch and talk.
For reallll please
Isn't that what these videos are?
@@BIGGER_REDFr bro, people are really delusional😂
Mikey had me spitting coffee 2min in the video. He smells different when he’s awake is AWESOME
“He smells different when he’s awake” are the greatest words ever spoken. Whatever you’re paying Mikey is not enough.
I knew I would find this comment somewhere
Creepy and Funny 😬
🤣🤦♂️ Yeah, I have no idea why my mind immediately shot to a "Spooning" that drove me to spit coffee out my nose...😂
lol dude is for sure a treasure
That's from a prof song
I'm with the Timpanogos Grotto, and I've been goingthing this seriously for years. We could get a team out there and help survey and map the caves with you. If they keep going and get mazy please be careful. You can easily die in there.
Also a caver, but a looong way from Texas. Would be great fun to explore and map these. Also the comment about using GPR to find candidates. Maybe something a University geology department would be interested in doing as a field project? They'd probably have access to the gear and any historic data from USGS etc to maybe narrow down candidates for hopefully finding larger systems. Oh, and Matt now has at least one real Man Cave!
We all need to comment on this so Matt sees it.
I have a feeling there's a decent amount of moving water down there, since the cave system was made by water, there's probably a decent river system running through the region. I wouldn't rule out this system connecting to National Bridge Caverns since they're in the same area, the mammoth cave system travels for hundreds of miles.
@@mamasaurus564 hes not stupid he knows common sense
Matt's all about safety at the range. He has all the correct equipment. He just needs to get professional help in gear for cave crawling like gas/air detectors and better lighting. One day a small rock chipper to open up a few of those tight access holes and such. I wish him luck on this becoming a major new find for the Ranch. He would have teams of covers who would want to spend time here.
Most impressed Matt went into this seemingly so brave. I mean he went in unarmed..... 😅
REMEMBER-- Geolocate/GPS locations of caves/holes and put warning signs or grills covering entrances so anybody strolling the area won't fall into one and "sue you for damages".....Just a thought, BE CAREFUL WHEN DOING THESE EXPLORATIONS!!!!!!!!!!
Matt you should reach out to the aquachigger, (another youtuber) he explores and documents undiscovered caves all over the eastern USA. He might be a good asset for future episodes
I just said the same thing!! 👍🏻
Matt, if you find someone with a Ground Penetrating Radar you could see just how deep those caves could go. You know that Carlsbad Caverns when they were found was only a small hole in the ground until they took picks and shovels and opened everything up.
I was thinking they could start by just lowering a phone down the holes using the software they are using at the abandoned ghost town to map the mines
Or they could use, The Action Adventure Twins
great post I never learned about the Carlsbad Carverns
Matt definitely likes things that penetrate.
Or maybe contact the closest university and see if they have a geology department who might want to come out as a field trip and get some experience with GPR.
I can see the insurance premiums skyrocket each time Matt says come explore our caves. This video is definitely top of my list of favorites.
This is one of the best videos you have done in quite awhile. It's awesome that Mere, Jenna, Clint, Mikey, Dave were all involved and mostly having fun. Great video.
It’s either the best or the stupidest 😂
@@barbaraegan9939 Kinda the same thing lol
Definitely better with the crew. A little more Jenna would be nice
I also love the fact that you guys are still 6 years old at heart and still STOKED to roll big rocks down hills! 😊
MEN! MEN! MEN!
Thats just being male😂😂
I see big rock at top of hill
I push rock, rock now at bottom of hill
I smile
Not gonna lie - this episode gave me serious anxiety. It was cool - mostly - but getting stuck in a cave is a phobia for sure. 😳
This was pretty mild. @EvenDarker used to creep me out, but I'm past that now.
Man my claustrophobia was going nuts in just the first couple minutes.
Me too!!!
Mine too!!!
There is very little that bothers me but caves gives me a little anxiety. Throw in water and it shoots up.
Not for I.
Just stumbling around in nature looking for holes in the ground with your friends.
I can't believe this episode went by so fast...
Great one, thanks.
Top man, I used to be a caving instructor, did a lot of new cave exploration in my day. Absolutely love being underground exploring. Not everyone will go into a flooded tube top marks lol. You just chain gang rocks out and debris although it will keep flooding is it filters down. Laughed loudly at cave crickets 😂 some nice flowstone in the last cave. When you get big caves with a lot of it, it looks like an alien landscape.
31:15 ”Jenna get hyped!! What were we doing? Oh yeah we were lookin for a cave”
Mikey, you are the positive sunlight in a group that everyone needs. That rock went for a good ride! Let boys be boys!
“Expensive” wine, explosions, and now a secret cave tunnel? This series keeps getting better and better
Pro tip don't disturb water in caves, it could be holding toxic gas and when it's disturbed it can come out displacing all the oxygen
Yeee I’ve heard dead air can kill you
Right... I noticed right away how dirty that clear water changed barely disturbing it, turned brown. Exciting video, no telling what the future hunts provide? I was wondering before the disturbance "wonder what the ppm reading would be on that?". Same danger metal detecting old wells, disturbing the settlement.
That was what I was more worried about in the whole video
Gotta have detecting gear that lets you know of low oxygen or toxic gasses
This is limestone, no danger
The thing that scares me the most about caves is the hole can be 2 feet wide but 100 feet deep.
Yes but way more fun that a hole a 100 feet wide and only 2 feet deep! LoL!
It isnt the girth of the hole it's the motion inside of it? Wait what were we talking about again?
Can I just say exploring caves is probably my biggest fear to die from.
It's one of mine, too. The story of the Nutty Putty Caves incident instilled a deep and passionate fear of caving in me.
@@raydenmorris5220The Last Descent! That movie gave me severe anxiety lol
@@danielkustra9071 OH yeah, for sure.
Qxir does a good video on death in caves
I'm not afraid of dying from exploring caves at all. I'm not sure how I'd ever end up in a cave.
By the shape of the rocks and the types of the speleothems in the caves, those caves would likely be full of water if it wasn't for the draught (they're right by the river, so no surprise there). Such caves can be really dangerous, I can't believe you just went in! Also it might be a good idea to survey the ground with a low-frequency GPR before blasting it away, just in case there's a big hole underneath 😁😁
Agree
(they did already fire a whole bunch of shotholes, wonder what may be uncovered when the rubble is cleared??)
Adults having the imagination of a kid. Beautiful. Being carefree with a sense of danger. I think all adults need this once in a while. Great video!❤
I'm absolutely loving Mikey and his infectiously positive personality. I'm wondering if I missed a video a while back introducing him? I just started noticing him in videos awhile back. I know I'm being nosey, but I'd just like to know a little of his backstory. Is he someone Matt has known for a while? How long has he been working for Matt? What is his role? I see him helping Matt with a lot, and he seems to be with Matt for just about every video and adventure recently. I'm definitely not complaining, he has made a GREAT addition, and I know I'm just being nosey, but I'm curious!
Right? I feel like Mikey just showed up in a video one day with no explanation as if he's been around forever. Unless I missed some video explaining who he was and why he is around now lol
Don't quote me but i think he worked for bunker branding initially and just started helping Matt out with jobs now he's Matt's right hand man / side kick
I agree, He is a fabulous addition. He is very similar to Matt, no wonder he is his side kick. He is entertaining and not afraid of anything. Has tons of energy just like Matt seems to have.
Mikey has been here a while, he's just been a very background character. I'm loving them bringing more people into the videos. Mikey and the cameraman for sure are great.
First I noticed him was in the bus stuff.
You need to do a collab with Aquachigger and have him explore some of the caves. He is experienced and fearless
He is doing better than he used to. He use to go alone at least he is going in caves with friends of mine now.
Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time
Going back to watch all the cave content. Matt youve got way better at caving
This is by far the most terrifying and satisfying episode that I’ve seen so far. You have some great hiking trails for real. This will be an excellent resort when it’s finished.
A underground cave with water and almost no room? Mat your freaking crazy for going in that small tunnel
Hello yah he's crazy, crazy like a fox. He found ancient living monster crickets. 😮
Gave me anxiety when he went in the water I was Mikey pull him out !
@@nofilterRaiderwhere’s your sense of adventure? The only thing I’d be worried about with all those crickets is there may be a snake in there having lunch.
@@peternorton5648 I like adventures just not tight spaces
@@peternorton5648Says the person who's never died in a spelunking incident.
Action Adventure Twins for the cave exploration!!! They are amazing!!! And you should deff run a well for a nonpotable water source for your fire truck and trailer. Then when the water is lower you can explore easier.
If you dry up the cave that takes the fun out of it. 😊
@@Underground_Adventures right right. It does for y'all cave nuts but for Matt and his crew who are already scared of them it would make it easier for them. Lol. Some of the shat y'all cavers do is psycho AF. Lmao. Im game for absolutely most of the caves. But some of the crazy shat y'all true cavers do is way outta my league and I'm not at all messed up with letting it be known. Lmao 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@glencalhoun9544 lmao Honestly I don't like the water caves to much... But Edward (twin) loves tight water crawls. I love vertical and I never turn down a cave trip .
@@Underground_Adventures no doubt. Always trying to get to a spot no one else has before. Lol. Crazy AF with it. Lol. I'll always watch though. Heart pounding. Lmao.
@@glencalhoun9544 that is the ultimate goal of my caving. Lol vertical caving and passing water crawls tend to be the way to find new places....
Thanks for watching.
Appreciate the shout out for the twins.
So, for lowering a camera into the caves, I'd recommend getting one of those 360° cameras if you don't have one, that way you can see everything around in the cave before you decide to actually go in it.
Insta360 could sponsor
Actually a bad ideal .... 360 camera has lens that stick out.... One touch from a rock and it'll be trash..... Ask me how I know? Lol
Yeah, that's why I was drooling about getting under that cap rock. I'm from around the Snake river canyon. Cave heaven. You could find new ones that have never had access. There was a guy in N Cali from Itali who made a whole complex of rooms with lit areas from above. He grew fruit trees underground that reached up to the light. The trees wouldn't grow on the surface, it was too hot.
I'm drooling over Jenna in that tank top
@@I_Scorched_Youtf is wrong with you 😢 go find a girlfriend 😮
I would love to see a series exploring these types of things - this was fantastic and really exciting. Get experts in (no shortage of volunteers im sure) and let you explore safely
I love Mikey's energy. He's the ultimate hype man!
Great to see Mere back out in the wild. Great video!
There has got to be a huge collab possibility with exploring these caves.
Actionadventuretwins for caves, The divetalk guys is there is any flooded caves. List goes on haha
Probably the air causing more pains than the water . Could be methane build up in the cave or cyanide that occur naturally in some water sheds. As the sulfides are exposed to air and water all kinds of stuff toxic can leach out into the water . Might wanna sample water while down there . Take air samples if possible too.
Yeah caves can get sketchy like that. Uranium dust you never know whats going on in a cave thats never been explored or tested
Every so often I'll be watching one of these videos and it hits me all over again that Matt is an actual doctor. Matt killing it with the vertebrae nomenclature was one of those moments.
Ikr? I was surprised he wasn't more confident in his snake ID
I feel the same way
@8:30 "O by the way guys we have an airfield" What a subtle flex lol. Get that runway fixed up and we can fly in to the ranch!
The cement area around the cave entrance is a Spring Box designed to capture water and keep debris and animals out.
This is what I was thinking too. 👍
I was thinking...how the crap did they get a cement mixer down there???@@gardengatesopen
Exactly.
Mikey is this channel's LS George. Brings another level of humour and energy to proceedings. A great addition to the team.
that's an insult to George... George at least brings content and hype, Mikey on the other hand is just someone who is immature for his age but thinks he is funny.
Oh yeah, George brings so much content… 🙄
Here, I’ll demonstrate his _genius…_ **ahem** BUENAS DIAS!!!!!
🤣🤦🏻♂️🥱
@@vincedibona4687 I'd rather hear that, instead of some moron on a rock saying 'I''m batman'...
@vincedibona4687 simp detected
It was so good to see Mere in this video even though it was only a brief appearance! ❤
MIkey is like a golden Labrador. Always happy to be along, always fun to have around, but sometimes make you wonder what is really going on in that cute little head of theirs. As for appetite.... I'm sure he can munch as much and as fast as a Lab.
Mikey is an absolute unit.
Why you compare him to a dog?
@@_Chris_SouthwestDetroit Because he's to nice to compare him to an evil cat?
@@Kar4ever3 Thats fucking disrespectful man, Don’t ever compare a Human being to a freaking animal
@@_Chris_SouthwestDetroit Because everyone knows dogs are way better than people
Clint Jenna and Mikey content are Prime always! 👌 Love the change of pace from all the trucks and cars!!
Has to be one of my favorite videos you guys have ever done. I feel like that’s the most genuine side of Matt I’ve ever seen.
Matt, take a sample of the water from the cave and check the lithium level in it, if it is very high, that could be the reason it’s making you feel good..Texas is know for having areas that have high lithium loaded aquifers.. People used to flock to Mineral Wells to soak in the lithium baths there…. I want to come down for the eclipse in April… I’m in Dallas… when you get further along I’ll maybe I can help you get your horse thing off the ground… I was a trainer for many years and can help you get it off the ground…
I got to say the amount of uploads on both channels lately has been awesome! Absolutely enjoy it.
there's also vetranch, you know. but I haven't tuned in for a few years, I'm not sure if they are still coming.
On a side note, the cave with water could easily be pumped.
@@trailguyDr Karri runs VetRanch.❤
How cool would it be if you found a waterfall underneath your property like Ruby Falls in Chattanooga? I'm looking forward to your further exploring and the progress in this ranch. Can't wait to vacation there.
It's always a good day to find new things.
Matt you should make videos this long or longer. My wife and I enjoy watching your videos. It's like top 5 things we love to do together.
It's a underground subterranean river. And I believe the concrete box around it was probably used to fill with water for use in a wildfire. We have them here near rivers and streams in the forest
31:26 lol I enjoy that cry for help / job availability
Matt, no kidding, do not take these caves lightly. There are MANY videos on channels like @ScaryInteresting that go into depth of why the even the most simple mistakes can be life threatening.
The Nutty Putty story still haunts my mind.
Scary Interesting made me realise that cave diving is the most insane thing one can possibly do. The risk of things going wrong is mind blowing.
No ounce of btch made in Matt's blood. He didn't listen to anything you said 😂
As soon as you get some sort of restaurant opened there, you need to get the landing strip opened up for small planes. There are groups of people scattered all across the country that go to places like your for a fly in breakfast, on weekends. Imagine somewhere from 6 to 10, or more, planes landing there on a Saturday morning, just for breakfast.
Great job on the video folks! Thanks for making it. I love these videos with all of you in them. Mikey has no fear.
I’m so claustrophobic that my heart is racing watching you crawl in that cave!
MIkey is great. He has that golden retriever vibe and is down to try anything lol.
Ahaha
Your vlogs just get better and better.
So enoyable.
Haha, this would have been my dream activity as a kid, just exploring the wilderness, looking for caves and snakes, not worrying about getting in trouble 😂
Yeah... and as an adult hopefully you realize you’re approaching the intersection of “fuckaround “ and “find out.”
Something tells me that map was drawn out by a kid who did all the exploring.
I would use ground penetrating radar anywhere you plan to build due to possible catastraphic sink hole possibilities.
Walking trails and side-by-side trails would be nice to
You and Mer are so funny together. Need to see more of your interaction.
Everyone have a blessed day, do something nice for someone today, we need to be the change, it only takes random acts of kindness.
This video had me on the edge of my seat the entire time... Absolutely love watching you guys explore this place
This episode is awesome and Matt this maybe the best selling point for your new ranch .... well, it's something new for all your following on RUclips...
I think you could get the RUclipsr aquachigger to look over all that landscape and he could tell you everything and the history, he does a lot of different things on RUclips and he loves caves ...
I have to say. I think the best addition to the channel has been Mikey. His little bit of wacky is great.
As a person who used to work at Natural Bridge Cavern’s this is awesome
Lost cave?! I hope it finds it was back home ❤thoughts and prayers
Great comment. 👍😄
Mikey is friggin awesome! Pulling the arrow out didn't seem to mess him up too bad.
Very strange look’s from people when I wear that shirt.
Some of the really big rocks along the "trails" could easily be used for bouldering and rock climbing, so if you cleared out the area around them, you could have another attraction to bring people to the resort. I'm not really a gun guy, but if I could come climb some rocks and end the day at a range, I think that would be awesome!
Matt, you legit need to make a rock crawling course for rock buggy events!
That should be next vehicle build, a rock crawler.
Wow, that is amazing. I’ve been to Carlsbad caverns in New Mexico a few times. I wonder if your newly rediscovered caves opens up to a larger cavern? That would be an awesome tourist attraction for The Desperado.
have you never heard of "actionadventure twins"? cave explorers extraordinaire.
I have . 😊
Abandoned resort just keeps on getting more and more interesting!
Mate u know is a good day when Matt uploads a 40 min video
That's the next new shirt design, Cave Zombie! 41:00 - soon as you make it, I'll buy it!
You should have the Texas A&M speleological society come out and explore
there's nothing more fun than exploring your property like this. Glad you brought us on for the ride, I know it was awesome
You definitely need that 360 camera Matt!
If you and Mere ever come to Utah again you should book a tour of the Timpanogas Cave. It's so cool. It's a quarter mile hike to get to it and the scenery is beautiful!
Awesome video! Loved the hiking and searching for caves, so cool. When Matt went down that 1st hole, i felt claustrophobic and panic set in a tiny bit, I was so scared for him!
Hilarious, Mikey on the dead tree stump, parkouring 😅. Loved the whole gang there, what a fun adventure!
When you find the caves you need to get a GPS and put a marker on the GPS so you can find the caves easier with the coordinates
!!!!!
The hill country is made up of a lot of limestone which is water soluble and granite, thus with time you get a lot of caves. There's some caves at the Enchanted Rock State Park too, the pink granite outcrop Matt has visited a few times.
Theres a lot of caves from texas to california for that reason.
That cave is a bit different than these caves, but still cool nonetheless.
Gosh. I hope they chose that lot for sure coz their home would be perfect there
You broke the number one rule Matt! You told mere. Glad to see Clint and Mere back to 100%
It's rock. The Talking Heads did this song decades back, with lyrics around the time that Matt was born. "Letting the days go by, water flowing underground". And thus, caves in rocks! Matt, I hope this project works.
Lol
Same as it EVER was.
You need a strong shop vacuum with a long hose. You can vacuum out some of the dirt and I bet the caves are a LOT bigger
You should call the action adventure twins! They do all sorts of caving.
I can't believe you actually went in!!! Omg I have claustrophobia so this makes me feel like I can't breath! On the other hand what a great adventure!
I know someone has already said it probably or youve already thought it, but you definitely need some kind of warning signs around all of the caves you find and along trails and even at the entrance. And make sure theyre mapped out better with accurate gps coordinates just in case someone does go miss you can explore then first to make sure.
I LOVE caves! The last one you showed is SUPER cool with all of the formations!!! It looked like there are some draperies forming in there, I thought I might have seen some crystal looking stuff and maybe a little flowstone and of course stalactites. That cave may prove to be even more awesome than it already is!❤ Fabulous video Matt!!!
So that's what it looks like when Jenna and Clint go outdoors with their hyperactive kids.
Thanks for the video! I'm so looking forward for the next one!
You could setup a pulley system above those cave holes and use your wench on Earl to lower you down, if you can access them with Earl or even a side by side
The Action adventure twins would be perfect to explore the caves on your property.
Caveman hikes youtube channel. They go through some bonkers caves. That guys got one video he basically.crawled face first into a daddy long legs den and the farther he went in the denser it got it was creepin me the hell out man frankly. Guy has no fear of caves its nuts
Yes!! That's what I commented and im glad to see other people recommending them
Yeah the whole time I was watching this I was getting flashbacks to ActionAdventureTwins videos.
I agree call the twins.
Honestly I’d have some one come out that specializes in finding stuff in the ground and has technology to see holes in the ground. Would probably be well worth the cost in the future of having the resort to clean up dangerous areas and possibly build out a cave for guests to explore if any good ones pop up which I’m guessing there diffently is atleast one huge cave somewhere
By far my favorite video of the series yet!
Hey Matt great video. I was wondering how dudes heart condition is going, I really enjoy seeing him and Jenna on your show. You have the best supporting cast.
Hey Matt, you should get AquaChigger (Beau Ouimette) out there. That man loves to crawl down scary holes and discover/explore caves.
Matt you should get a 360 cam
and send it down the holes
Been loving all this extended content and can't wait to book a stay!
Great video Matt. You had me on the edge of the seat a few times, and Mickey going down that little hole almost putting his arms down just about freaked me out. !!!!!!! Looks like there is so much to explore on that HUGE piece of land with clearly so much history to be found.
Love your videos, love from Australia ❤❤❤
There's a big caving festival next week in Georgia you should go to. It's probably the best/biggest caving event in the country and we would love to have you and your family.
This video with the way it was cut and the story developed had some amazing Found Footage Vibes. I was almost expecting it to turn into a horror movie. 😂
