“Gly”: Last month (January, 2024) RUclips deleted nearly 300 of my subscribers and they continue to do so daily. Let’s show em who’s boss! Hit that subscribe button and let’s see if we can make a difference. Thank you for your support!
This has been happening to others too, I am still subscribed. RUclips is getting rather sneaky! Wouldn't cancelling subscribers be a way of paying you less?
Why are they doing that? It’s not like this is a political channel. I know they have a leftist agenda but what does that have to do with mine exploration?.
I can never get enough, about seeing all that timbering.. Couple that, with great cinemaphotography, great story line, and you've got what amounts, to magic.
22:13 Notice that the lower ladder is made one way and the upper ladder is made another way. The lower ladder is made in the traditional style with the rungs inset, but the upper ladder has the rungs scabbed on the surface as if it was done sometime later by others.
@@robertherrmann4823 Saw cuts to the sides and a chisel to take out the middle. At least that is how we did it. We used 2 X 4's for the rungs so they took longer to wear out. Most use a 1X board as it is cheaper.
@@myfavoritemartian1 thanks, that’s what I figured, but those notches look very precise with the surface of the rungs being so flush with the sides. I guess practice makes perfect. What with all the mill power available, one would think maybe they could have made a notching die press to knock them out faster.
@@robertherrmann4823 I worked in a mine much like that one from 1959 thru 1968. They are so very hand to mouth that it is ridiculous. It was my Uncle, three hired guys and me (A kid). If you watch boat builders you will see just how precision a chisel can be. We had 4 shovels, 2 picks and 1 rock drill. It took 3 years before we got to build a bunk house and we always cooked over a campfire. If the Selective Service and the war had not come along, I might still be there. (JK)
I used to live in Bullhead City, AZ and there were many times on my days off that I would hop on my motorcycle and just head out into the desert just to see beautiful country like what you're seeing here. Those days are long gone. I'm 72 years old now and I can't do that kind of stuff anymore. So I'm living back in Indiana. But I tell you the pictures that I have and the memories that I have is something that I could never lose or forget because it's just amazing how beautiful that country is out there. Thank you for wonderful mine trip today. You be careful and have a safe visit on your next endever.
Now with the sneak peeks earlier in the week about the upcoming episode I feel like I’m watching a preview to something really awesome. And then the release date comes up, it’s time to watch Abandoned and Forgotten Places.. TRULY AWESOME STUFF my friend.
I really like the new intro. Not wasting time with the Google Earth zoomy but getting right into it with the usual great music. Today: "There is No Sequel", Lupus Nocte, and "Sunset Dew", Philip Ayers.
“Gly”: I’m going to be trying different things in the coming months to see if I can make the RUclips algorithm happier. Maybe then, it’ll stop deleting my subscribers and disabling their notifications. 😠
I like the drone flights over the mine site. It helps me with the geography, the lay of the land and helps to generate in my mind a 3 dimensional view of the entire mine. Some mines are very complex but this works well for the smaller mines.
“Gly”: Thanks! I think so too. An overview is important for this kind of exploring. However, if it’s a mine full of hidden artifacts then I will not do drone work to help protect the location from theft and vandalism.
Some men are fearless, some men are foolish and most men are a little of both. So I will tell you once again Gly...be careful and safe my fave, fearless, explorer! 🙏🏽
What beautiful Rugged Country! Such great views from the Bird's eye point of view, thank you for always giving us such a great view of the region where you explore. Well, most times anyways, some places you can't because it would give away the location. And, by the way, I totally support your refusal to give locations of mines, because we just can't have nice things. there are far too many people who never grew up being taught to have respect for our history and the sanctity of historical sites. Like a bunch of stupid juvies they go in and remove things for themselves and also damage and deface the places with graffiti of all kinds. So great job as always Gly for doing your best in both documenting and preserving these jewels of our history.
“Gly”: Thank you! Yes, it’s important to be a good steward of these sites. Had this one been full of artifacts I would’ve just began filming inside the mine. It’s happened on a few occasions where I did a few hours of drone work only to never use the footage because the mine was filled with artifacts.
I just wanted to add that I used to work as a dump truck driver for a very large Landscaping company and we used to sell large boulders for wealthy landowners as well as developers and Boulders or Rock of any kind is extremely heavy, and Quartz is among the heavier of the minerals and that massive boulder that came down behind that partially gobbed wall at timestamp 24:51, from the size of it looks to be about 1/2 to 3/4 of a metric tonne (500kg to 750kg or 1,102 lbs. to 1,653lbs.) if that fell on top of your head, you likely wouldn't even feel the pain before it broke your neck and crushed your upper torso. I'm sure that we all have enough of an imagination to figure out what such a boulder would do to you if it hit various parts of your body. The point being, that it's not something you would be able to brush off or walk away from, to put it mildly. When you showed the other "widow makers" in that mine; I have a healthy respect for the weight of Rock no matter what it's composition because when it comes to the human body, the differences in weight between the minerals comprising rocks, is nothing more than semantics, for all of the difference it makes. LOL when you go through tight spaces that is where I get really nervous for you and sometimes, I don't know how you do it Gly! You got Titanium Cojones to go into some of the places you decide to go into! Thanks again for a top-notch video, and as always, I wait with bated breath for your next episode!
“Gly”: You are 100% correct and despite me wanting to do it, that’s why I did not climb up that ladder to explore the stope. The rocks in there were just too fractured and ready to fall. I’ll bet that stope looked 10 times worse.
another great and awesome video thanks for making my day you are so handsome and awesome and a great history teacher take care be safe stay warm inthe cold days
loving the drone the drone Montague at the begin of the video i wish i had a VR head set to watch with but as a poor student computing it not something i can afford given I currently in the process of building out my first desktop computer it takeover ten years for me to actually do it but watching your video brighten my day as i get to pretend i am right there with you make me feel a lot less stressed about my impending assignments i am working with VMs
Great drone footage and we love the history and geology! We never really understood much of mining technology until we started watching your videos - thank you!
Thank you Gly. Your content continues to improve with each video. I like your professionalism and courage to say now when things get too sketchy. Awesome as usual.
Very nice area gly , that cylinder clearly said " cold water " heater , unless you had a Hot springs near , you would have to heat cold water ! Lol 😁☠️
Awesome mom and pop mine ! All the wood work. A few 😱 places , rocks that have fallen or already slabbed off. Awesome video. Stay safe out there ! Hope Laura is doing ok? See you next weekend ! 👍🏻🙂
I'm opening the Vulcan mine in elko nv. may 12th for first time since 60's I would like to invite you to do a explore of it if you I will be operating there this yr till Oct maybe Nov let me know....
So sorry that RUclips is treating you this way!! 😡 We love and appreciate all the hard work and time you put into each and every episode, even if RUclips doesn’t…
...👍🏾🙏👍🏾✨✨✨HEY BOB... THAT WAS FUN AND FANTASTIC AS YOU WENT INTO THAT MINE...THAT SECOND MINE WAS MUD AND WATER LIKE ...😳... I ENJOY THAT EITHER THO IT'S DIDN'T GO FAR BUT I STILL ENJOY BOTH OF THOSE MINE AND I WILL SEE YOU IN YOUR NEXT VIDEO AS YOU CONTINUALLY STAY UP AND STAND GRATEFUL SIR✨✨✨👍🏾🙏👍🏾...
Gly, you should check out John Janzen's dives of the Delaware copper mine located in the Keweenaw peninsula in my home state of Michigan! He's got a couple of videos on RUclips. You'll see tons of really cool artifacts still in the mine, like several intact ore cars, lots of rail, tool boxes, dynamite boxes, compressor piping, barrels, plus amazing architecture. There are stulls down there as big as trees!
Watching from Australia and enjoying my breakfast watching exploration at its best . The drown shots are inspiring to see , Great Episode, you doing a solo which is a surprise . A Great find Friend Gly, always looking forward to watching your next adventure . This U- tube thing is a disgrace , there needs to be a way to make thing s happen .Maybe do a meet up with a few other shows and make them notice . Your hard work needs to be recognized and credited . Best wishes from the land down under
“Gly”: Thank you. I’m doing my best to spread the word but I’m just one popcorn packing peanut in an ocean of peanuts all struggling with similar issues. It’s tough out there right now for creators and I hope they get things fixed soon.
Enjoying watching your awesome videos have just subscribed to your blog so I can follow the latest shows thanks for all the work you do bring us a great show on abandoned mines great work mate take care and stay safe blessings everyone from tropical far north Queensland tablelands thanks for sharing love it
Coming in late to view your episode. Had a birthday party to be at yesterday. Again, you found some cool, older mines, so old that much of them are collapsing. Too bad that you couldn't get back further in the 2nd mine to get a view of that upper adet connection. Where'd you wash off your boots on the way home? It was pretty gooey in that last mine. The erosion of those hills, in that area, are a great "feature" to see. Thank you for filming the area & scenery for we "armchair" viewers.
“Gly”: Technically, tailings are what come off the tail of a sluice or a mill site. Waste rock is worthless rock that is discarded during the ore extraction process.
Hey Gly, another really cool video from you. Awesome scenery around the mine there and the work that went into the tramway, WOW!!! As you stated, my subscription was also kicked. Anyway we are up and going again. Take care and be safe out there. Look forward to seeing next weeks video.
“Gly”: The pew pew is in my Jeep at all times, I just don’t carry it into the mine unless the area has a strange feeling about it. Some locations are prime mountain lion habitat and in situations like that you will definitely see me carry.
Good morning Gly! We have been subscribed since the beginning and have you tuned in before the coffee pot stops brewing every Sat. morning 😊. Really hope we all can help you figure out how to fix this RUclips "thing" going on? We have a couple other RUclips channels (different genres) that we watch and they don't seem to be having the same subscriber issue? At least I don't think so? Curious why your channel is being affected? Stay safe and stay healthy. Jim & Michele
“Gly”: It might very well be that RUclips has mine exploring channels partially shadow banned but it’s all speculation and rumor. I’ve contacted RUclips but I can’t get a straight answer out of those guys. All I get is… “keep producing content”. Well, this hamster 🐹 can only go round and round on the wheel without food and water for so long before he finally falls off.
Yep. Exactly? I don't know all the specific "in's-and-out's of how RUclips makes their money, but, I have to assume that the bigger your channel gets translates into more revenue for them also? How is that a bad thing??
“Gly”: Last month, January, my channel made less than minimum wage. Minimum wage workers typically put in 40 hours a week, I average 80 hours a week. Sure, I consider it a labor of love but this is getting ridiculous. Larger RUclipsrs make money with in video sponsorships but can you imagine me stopping in the middle of a mine explore and promoting a VPN or some kind of silly video game? Or maybe do a flashlight review on some cheap Chinese flashlight? Nope, not going to happen. Lol
Ya.....I don't blame you at all for stopping down and doing a promo. I know a little about Patreon? Paying for a subscription to continue to join you on yoir explores would unfortunately be a bummer to some, however, it is a small price to pay for what we enjoy, would help your effort financially, and (I think?) give you the freedom you're looking for? Sure, you're going to lose some subscribers, but, given what has been presented to you through RUclips this may be the only way the channel can survive? It's obvious you're trying to do anything and everything in your power NOT to have to go that route, but, the channel may have no choice? Whatever you end up deciding to do it feels like the bulk of your followers will join you. At the end of the day, RUclips is making it impossible to simply afford to do what you? I know this has to be tough for you to be put in this position. You'll make the right decision. Supporting you 100% Jim & Michele
Gly I have enjoyed watching you for some time. Then I realize I have a Miners story. I needed to drive a load into hunts point NY.for the first time. I ran into another driver with my company doing the same load and we became friends. Before driving he said he was a working miner. He had a way of saying it funny. As he worked someone hit him in the head with something. The very next thing he remembers is he was in the hospital. He didn't go back. He didn't want to say what kind of injury it was. Being a tough guy in a mine leads to injuries! Who else has a story? He lived in West Virginia I should have said.
“Gly”: You can’t have eyes in the back of your head. Many miners were injured or killed because of their incompetent work fellows. It wasn’t just the dangers of the mine you had to worry about, it was the man next to you doing something reckless too.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Back in the times this mine was being worked you would be lucky to have any treatment if you lived. The age of survival has to be lower than the other population due just close quarters inside.
Hey Gly! @ 46:40 What you need is a land drone! 😎 One that you could strategically drive into those impassible areas so you can get a glimpse of what is past it. possibly with an HD camera, lights, and zoom capability. Just a thought. 🤔I don't know if you would be interested but, I could maybe build you one if you'd like. Nothings better than custom. 😉
The larger heater was The Perfection Stove company, started in the 1880's peaked pre 1950 and appears parts ceased to be made by 1981, cheap electricity was their demise...
“Gly”: Yes, I caught that when I was editing. I wish I would’ve noticed it when I was flying the drone but it blended in with the surroundings so well, I didn’t see it.
Awesome thanks Gly for responding I think it would be awesome if some time in the future maybe yall can get together again around the camp fire 🔥 like yall did that one time ....
“Gly”: Last month (January, 2024) RUclips deleted nearly 300 of my subscribers and they continue to do so daily. Let’s show em who’s boss! Hit that subscribe button and let’s see if we can make a difference. Thank you for your support!

“Gly”: Thanks for the info.
@@JimD-f3l I think they stop my comments so people cant read the truth
Privately owned platform. Just saying...
This has been happening to others too, I am still subscribed. RUclips is getting rather sneaky! Wouldn't cancelling subscribers be a way of paying you less?
Why are they doing that? It’s not like this is a political channel. I know they have a leftist agenda but what does that have to do with mine exploration?.
Thanks!
“Gly”: Thank you very much!
Gly, I would enjoy an episode where you describe in detail each piece of safety equipment that you have and what it does for you.
I can never get enough, about seeing all that timbering.. Couple that, with great cinemaphotography, great story line, and you've got what amounts, to magic.
“Gly”: Thank you very much! It’s a labor of love and I love what I do. 👍
Gly, your Saturday morning job has some of the sweetest views. It's not a job unless you love it.
You explore what I would not, I live vicariously through people like you, keep up the good work and thanks. Keep safe!
Thanks, Gly, for choosing your battles wisely. We don't want to have to send in an expedition just to save your boots!
Very nice effort, Gly
The amount of work those miner's had to do is mind blowing
And a special thank you to whoever gave you the tip off 👍

My beautiful backyard, the Bradshaw mountains. And we call the waste rock tailings in these parts.
“Gly”: Technically, tailings are what come off the tail of a sluice or a mill site. Waste rock is worthless rock that is discarded during the ore extraction process.
Between Wickenburg and Prescott?!? Around the crown king area
Another awesome Solo explore ✌❤🙏🍻🇬🇧
For those wedge areas you can't crawl past... Maybe we need a Mini Bob? Like a mini tank rc with a cam. 🙂
I look forward to these videos every week! You never disappoint Gly! Thank you
“Gly”: Thank you!
Hey Gly, another really cool video from you. Awesome scenery around the mine there and the work that went into the tramway, WOW!!!
As you stated, my subscription was also kicked. Anyway we are up and going again. Take care and be safe out there. Look forward to seeing next weeks video.
Ah - to bad the mine had those collapses. Great find and video and thanks for the explanation of the tram and rock work. Keep at it!
9:15 big rock right side of screen looks like a oversized cross.
Gly, I keep noticing an empty holster, you should always be carrying protection when you’re out there.

Ya.....I don't blame you at all for stopping down and doing a promo.
I know a little about Patreon? Paying for a subscription to continue to join you on yoir explores would unfortunately be a bummer to some, however, it is a small price to pay for what we enjoy, would help your effort financially, and (I think?) give you the freedom you're looking for?
Sure, you're going to lose some subscribers, but, given what has been presented to you through RUclips this may be the only way the channel can survive?
It's obvious you're trying to do anything and everything in your power NOT to have to go that route, but, the channel may have no choice?
Whatever you end up deciding to do it feels like the bulk of your followers will join you.
At the end of the day, RUclips is making it impossible to simply afford to do what you?
I know this has to be tough for you to be put in this position.
You'll make the right decision.
Supporting you 100%

At about 14:04 you can see one of the old tram buckets laying in the wash.
“Gly”: I saw that too when I was editing. I wonder if that’s a tram bucket or just a 55 gallon barrel. 🤔
Back when the mines were operational did the workers have lighting in the mines?
“Gly”: Depending on how old the mine is they either had electric lights, carbide lamps, candles or oil lamps.
Gly I have enjoyed watching you for some time. Then I realize I have a Miners story.
I needed to drive a load into hunts point NY.for the first time. I ran into another driver with my company doing the same load and we became friends.
Before driving he said he was a working miner. He had a way of saying it funny. As he worked someone hit him in the head with something. The very next thing he remembers is he was in the hospital. He didn't go back. He didn't want to say what kind of injury it was.
Being a tough guy in a mine leads to injuries!
Who else has a story? He lived in West Virginia I should have said.
“Gly”: You can’t have eyes in the back of your head. Many miners were injured or killed because of their incompetent work fellows. It wasn’t just the dangers of the mine you had to worry about, it was the man next to you doing something reckless too.
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces Back in the times this mine was being worked you would be lucky to have any treatment if you lived. The age of survival has to be lower than the other population due just close quarters inside.
Hello Gly, thanks for showing us. The timber and ladders seem in good order, I thought?
Another great video experience, thanks for the work you do Gly!!
Gly,
It looked more like a cold water heater to me simply because hot water is already hot 😂😂😂😂
Another great explore gly!
Another great episode. Drone footage is always awesome. Are you flying solo again?
“Gly”: Just for a little while, Laura will be back in April.
Hey Gly! @ 46:40 What you need is a land drone! 😎 One that you could strategically drive into those impassible areas so you can get a glimpse of what is past it. possibly with an HD camera, lights, and zoom capability. Just a thought. 🤔I don't know if you would be interested but, I could maybe build you one if you'd like. Nothings better than custom. 😉
Awesome video
thats why when you work in mine you have to scale the area before going in.
“Gly”: Yep, that’s correct.
The larger heater was The Perfection Stove company, started in the 1880's peaked pre 1950 and appears parts ceased to be made by 1981, cheap electricity was their demise...
Bat guano, is good stuff. Take a sample home and see what your garden says about it!
Great video! Your drone skills are A+!
Good morning Gly ,, what an interesting and exciting explore. Rattlesnake our tail end could be the rattle😂😂.
“Gly”: Rattlesnakes have feelings too. Lol
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces yeah, sure, sure Gly!! Okay😊
Your too good Tku😎
Gly, great experience you provided for us, thank you. Can you tell us what the purpose was for them putting up the gobbing wall?
13:00 bottom right of the screen is what appears to be a fairly large stacked rock foundation. Looks way too big for a simple miners cabin.
“Gly”: Yes, I caught that when I was editing. I wish I would’ve noticed it when I was flying the drone but it blended in with the surroundings so well, I didn’t see it.
Yes Nail's Gly! Cause a Barrel of Monkey's Would be too much Excitment for them Miner's Somewhere Robin Williams got a Chuckle!!!; )😂😅
There's a ladder going up into a stope in that 2nd haulage you went into.
Sure would have been cool to be there when it was happening huh? So awesome.
Greetings from Poteet Texas
That's the kind of mud I feel like I'm trapped in when trying to run in my dreams 😅
Thanks
You should add a camera on a stick so that you peek around corners and into holes. As always a good video. 🇨🇦
It looks like extremely hard work to me.
Thozse miners didnt notice the view 😊
Great video really enjoyed the exploring ... hey what ever happened to Mr M & Randy ??? Do you still talk to them ???
“Gly”: We all parted company over two years ago but we still stay in touch. They are both doing well.
Awesome thanks Gly for responding I think it would be awesome if some time in the future maybe yall can get together again around the camp fire 🔥 like yall did that one time ....
Oh what’s under the sheet metal outside? Holes? Rattlesnakes? Another mine entrance? Root cellar?
“Gly”: Maybe all of the above!
