Beautiful Natural Timbering, Colorful Minerals and Artifacts In This Mine - Plus Miner's Cabin

- After following a Jeep trail for 14 miles up a wash, we came to a miner's cabin with a nice mineral vein behind it. After checking out the cabin, we continued down another canyon and found an interesting mine. This 1910-era silver mine featured beautiful natural unmilled timbering, which was used for supporting the drift as well as for track ties. Copper and lead were also taken from this mine as secondary ores to silver. There is also a nice winze shaft going down about 75 feet with the skip track still intact. We climbed down the skip track to see what was down below. We found a few artifacts, one of which we have never seen before.
We hope you enjoy the video!
*This is a re-edit of a previously released video.
Gly just did this mine as well, nice to see another perspective ❤.
That's what a few people have said. I hope our version compares favorably. Thanks for watching!😁
@@TomandJulieMineExploring Indeed it does, you noticed things Gly didn't and I just prefer your style of exploring a bit more.
Hey guy's that was a cool lil mine, and drive to the 1st place and the 2nd one you drove to other side of the valley that a lone was cool 😎, enjoyed as all ways be safe and take care and I'll talk to you soon
Hi Gary. Glad that you enjoyed the mine and Jeep ride. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍😁
Hi there, Tom and Julie. This mine video looked very familiar to me and then I realized that Gly & Laura put out a video on Wednesday 4/17/24 in this same mine. Both teams showed basically the same features in the mine with a few differences. When G&L explored the mine, he showed there were no footprints on the mine floor. At 12:50, when you explored the shaft, both teams went into the drift near the bottom and saw the animal bones. Gly enhanced the scene and noticed the head had very sharp teeth for a carnivore; not a rabbit. Tom when you were climbing out, at 16:46, you found the Prince Albert Tobacco Can and Gly never explored there. At 18:28, when you discovered the vertical shaft with the air movement, Gly had already been in the upper mine and noticed a shaft going down to your mine which he expected to find there, but G&L both missed it when they were in your mine. It’s very interesting to compare the way teams explore and notice things in the same mine!! Never had a chance to do so before and in the same week! Thanks to both Teams for their wonderful perspectives and insights in the videos!! Keep Safe & Healthy!!!
Hi Cary. I heard that Gly was just there. To be honest, we were there several months ago. I guess it's fun to compare the way different people do things. Gly seems to focus more on his photography, and I focus more on carrying smaller camera gear so I'm able to easily access difficult to reach areas. I wouldn't be able to do a lot of the crawling and climbing that I do with that big gimble and other gear that he uses. I guess we all do what works best for us. Thanks for the comment, and I hope our explore measures up to Gly's.👍😁
Hello Julie and Tom. Would you believe Gly and Laurie was just in this mine too. I remember seeing the bones at the end of the shaft. He said that ladder wasn't designed for chunky boys. LOL Great video and that wash you were riding it on camera looked real tight. I'm surprised you were able to make it through there.
Yeah I saw that one too. Chunky boy hahaha.
Great video loved the old ore cart tracks 🙂
Hi Stephen. Yes, we heard that Gly was here recently. I think this one gets a fair number of visitors since you can drive right to it. Thanks for the comment!👍😁
That’s crazy Gly Coolness was just there at mine I watch his video Wednesday that’s so funny. You think you guys would have ran into each other. Great video and be safe out there my friends
Hi Vincent. I'm not sure when Gly was there. We were there several months ago and made this video. Thanks for the comment!👍😁
very nice thanks for sharing
You're welcome, Jerry. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍😁
Between the strap rail and the raw timbering, this mine looks to be old. Thanks Tom and Julie!
Hi William. I believe this area was first mined in the early 1900s. You're welcome, and thank you for watching!👌
Another interesting video as usual. Thanks!
Hi Brian. Glad that you found the video interesting. Thanks for watching!👍😁
Wow, those turquoise blue veins are beautiful.
Hi Robert. That was a beautiful mineral vein. Thanks for commenting!😀
The places you take that poor jeep.. To bad the cows got in the cabin.. Lots of color and interesting timber in the mines.
Hi Max. The Jeep is pretty happy. It needs new tires, is about all. I guess the cattle like the cabin on cold, windy days. I don't know why else they would go in there. That little vein is beautiful. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍😁
Hey guys, Gly was in that exact same mine just recently.
Hi Richie. That's what others have said. I hope our explore is as good as Gly's.😁
Fun with Tom and Julie Yes it was Nice Colors in that Vein!!!; )
Hi Richard. That little vein was great. Thanks for watching!👍⛏️
HEY,HEY, IT'S Tom and Julie , Thanks for taking us to explore today. 👍
Hi Lloyd. You're welcome. Thanks for taking the trip with us!😀
Nice little mine lots of timbering also. Great tobacco tin also. I have a favor I have to go back in the hospital for surgery Monday. I sure could use some prayers right about now. Hope to see y'all next week God bless you both and be safe.
Hi Jimmy. We will certainly keep you in our prayers. You have been very helpful to us, so that's the least we can do. Thanks for watching and for the blessing!🙏🙏❤️
Hi Jimmy, saw that you were having surgery and I’ve got you on my prayers for quick & complete healing to you in the name of Jesus.
James 5:16 The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective
Love you brother!
That mine looks like it''s a very old one, nice to see !
I think this area, in general, was mined in the early 1900s. Thanks for watching!⛏️👍
Hi guys I hope all are well. Tom you cracked me up a couple times on this explore.when you going along the wash and said where did the road go. It reminded of my drinking days when I couldn't see the road well I could but I was seeing double. :-) Peace
Hi Jimi. That one tight turn in the wash looked like a wall and a dead end. I know what you mean about driving and seeing double. There were a few times in my 20s that I would l9ok out in the morning to see if my car was in its parking spot and if there were any new dents in it. Thanks for commenting!✌️
another fun explore ....love them old miners cabins but will take a lot to clean up all them cow paddies.... keep them vids a coming and be safe out there you two
Hey Jeff. I have never seen a cabin so full of cow pies. How did they turn the door knob with their hooves? Thanks for the comment, we appreciate it!👍😁
Fun little mine and cabin. To bad you couldn't rope down to bottom. Windless must of been for something.
Hi David. It really didn't look like there was anything at the bottom, but you're right because you can never be sure unless you go all the way down. The windlass was for pulling up an ore bucket from below. Thanks for watching!👍😁
*T & J!*
You got Prince Albert in a can? 🙂
Always happy to see you folks out and about. Be safe, see you next one.
(Damn cedars grow like weeds in this neck of the woods. They use 'em for fenceposts;
they never rot out!)
- Ed on the Ridge
Hi Ed. Yep, we let Prince Albert out of the can for a little fresh air. The timbering is pretty nice in this one. Thanks for watching!👍😁
Love those older mines with strap rail and natural timbers. Thanks for taking us along. Take care of each other and be safe.
Hi Ed. We love both of those features, too. I especially like the unmilled timbers. You're welcome, and thank you for watching!👍😁
Hey T&J, good to see you guys back at it in the desert! nice colors but sketchy timber work, thank you guys stay safe!
Hi Raiderman. That was a nice little vein at the cabin. The natural timbers are pretty cool. Thanks for commenting!👍😁
My favorite mine exploring channel. Thanks for another one. I'm surprised there was no mine at the cabin. That looked like a valuable vein.
Hi Lorrin. Yes, I am a little surprised they didn't work that vein by the time cabin a little more, too. It looked good. Thanks for the comment!👍😁
Well, Julie made the "smart" move getting back into the Jeep out of the cold ay, so well done again and it was good to see how they worked the natural timbers, so thanks for the video and looking forward to some more Cheers
Hi Brian and Mary. I was looking around for Julie, and she had snuck back into the Jeep. The natural timbers are really fun to see. Thanks for watching!👍😁
Thank you, Tom and Julie that was a nice little explore. Awesome timbers and I think that cabin looked like a fixer-upper. lol have fun. Be safe. 🍻🍺👍
Hi David. That cabin needs some help quickly. I like those natural timbers, too. Thanks for the comment and beers!👍🍺🍺🍻
thank-you for the great video.
You're welcome, Tony. Thanks for watching!👍😁
I'm late to the show! Thanks, Tom & Julie! See ya next week.
Hi Jimmi. You're welcome and thank you for watching!👍😁
Hi Tom & Julie, I hope you are both well ??, we are all good. That cabin has definitely seen better days, it was built well though. I loved the blue in that vein, so colourful, the mine with the wheelbarrow was so sketchy in places but I loved seeing the natural timber used there, I guess the mine is pretty old if they were cutting down trees ???. Thank you for sharing, much love to you both. xx 🤗💞
Hi Sue. All is well with us, and I hope the same is true for you. The cattle took over the cabin, and I think the wind will blow it over at some point. Isn't that a beautiful little vein. It's always fun to see a wheelbarrow and the beautiful timbering. Thanks for the comment!👍❤️
@@TomandJulieMineExploring we are all doing good, thank you for asking. Much love to you both as always. xx 🥰
Good to hear, Sue!❤️❤️
Awesome little mine, timbers were amazing. Thanks guys 😊
Hi Linda. Yes, a nice little mine. You're welcome, and thank you for watching!👍😊
Thanks for the nice Jeep ride. Reminds me of those trips from yesteryear to and from mines when I was a lot younger. This was better than a cup of coffee this fine Friday morn. Thanks again.
Hi Roy. Yes, the road out got a little tight in a few places. This area gets a lot of ATV traffic, and we might have been on one of their trails for a while. Glad to hear that we're as good as coffee!👍😁
Hello Tom Hello Julie
A little awsome mine the timbering is great .
I love this natural timbers.
Best Wishes and a great weekend
Yours Frank Galetzka
Hello Frank. I love those natural timbers, too. Thanks for watching. We appreciate it!👍😁
I feel I'm watching a rerun. 😂 Rerun or not it's still nice to watch you guys. I can't believe you went down that ladder without roping up. You guys are crazy!😮😮
Hey, EJ. Good to hear from you. That ladder is pretty tame as far as mine ladders go. They don't get much easier or safer than this one. Thanks for watching!👍🎸✌️🍻
Alll those twisty timbers are cool and would look good as a mantle. they were a trip.still love and miss that Desert......soon Lord willing 🎸🎸
Hi Cheyenne. Those natural timbers are great to see. I hope you get your chance to get to the desert. Thanks for commenting!👍😁
Tom and Julie, loved your version of this mine. I subscribe/follow you two and also Gly. By far the best two mine exploring teams on You Tube. Each with a different/unique perspective, both enjoyable and educating. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Look forward to each Saturday when you two post a new video.
Thanks, Nikki!👍😁
Hey Tom and Julie. That was some trail at the start. Cabin still had its glass amazing. That mine was as crude as can be. all timbers still retain back. Tom a ladder found you!!! LOL Thanks for sharing your adventure and exploring. Be safe and warm.
Hi Jake. I think the wind is going to take that cabin down before the vandals and cattle get to it. It's a long way out, so maybe the window breakers don't bother. Yes, another ladder found me. Lol Thanks for the comment!👍😁
Thanks tom and Julie once again for another great mine explore . I love the old cabin and the mine itself looks very interesting and a little bit unstable
Hi Tony. Glad that you enjoyed the explore. Both the mine and the cabin are a little unstable. Thanks for the comment!👍😁
Hey, I just come along because I enjoy y'alls company. That vien sure looked juicy. That's why I never go mine exploring anymore. I always weighed more coming back than going. 😊
Hi Richard. That vein did look juicy. Thanks for the comment!😀
A real find in a place less travelled. I can see why many people do not attempt the road! Have Jeep will travel... What if Jeep quit?
I think this one gets a few visitors from the ATV crowd that uses these roads. We are always prepared to walk if the Jeep breaks down. You really don't want to visit some of these places if you're not prepared to spend a night outside in case of an emergency. Thanks for the comment 👍😁
Always enjoy your trips and the fun stuff you find along the way. Thanks for doing what you do.
Hi Joe. Thanks for the comment. Glad that you enjoyed the trip!👍😁
I look forward to your videos
That's great. Thanks for watching!😁
Good morning!
Hi Dave. I like the new channel name.😁
@@TomandJulieMineExploring 😊
Interesting mine. I didn't think you were making through that road. Thanks for sharing Tom and Julie!
Hi Jim. That wash/road was a little tight in places. Glad that you enjoyed the mine!👍😁
Another great explore. Thanks for taking us along!
You're welcome, Chuck. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍😁
That was fun! Thank you guys, very enjoyable as usual!
Hi Robert. You're welcome. Glad that you enjoyed it!👍😁
Very cool video
Hi Bill. Thanks for the nice comment!👍😁
Very nice pictures, thank you for taking time to explore and keep safe!
Hi Deb. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the video. You're welcome, and thank you for watching!👍😁

You're welcome, Ralph. Thanks for watching!👍
Beautiful mine. Thanks for the tour.
Hi Bruce. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the mine. You're welcome, and thank you for watching!👍😁
Fun video.
Thanks, Brad!👍
🎸🎸 Thanks buddies for another adventure in yon boonies....I maybe making a pilgrimage to Bishop for awhile....I think Brent @ Cerro Gordo needs a little Blues Festival up there...!!🎸🎸
Hope you have a fun trip if it happens. Bishop is a fun area. Lone Pine is a little closer to Cerro Gordo. 👍🎸
@@TomandJulieMineExploring Yep!!! remember I was born in Trona (57) and raised in China Lake / Ridgecrest...30 years...Im all alone up here in ol' Montanee so I have close friends that live in Bishop...I'm thinking The Minors Jam at Tacopa Mines and Wonderhussy officiating the thing!! lol😵💫🥴
We have always spent a month or two in Bishop for the last eight years. Really enjoy that area.
I remember seeing this mine before also. It was still neat seeing it a second time plus you pointed out some new items like that Prince Albert can.
You are correct, Scott. We have shown this mine before. Thanks for watching again!👍😊
2:50 I like those corner shelves.
They are pretty nice now that you mentioned it.👌
Awesome another great video and some cool looking views
Hi John. Glad that you enjoyed the video and thanks for commenting!👍😁
Keep your eyes open for Gly he's in the area.
Hi Pamela. That's what I heard. We were actually there several months ago, so no Gly when we were there. Thanks for commenting!👍😁
Famous last words of the Death Valley Germans, "Is this the road?" Be safe out there.
I thought that road just disappeared lol. 🚧
That was cool thanks 😊 👍
Hey Wendell. We're glad that you liked it!👍😁
The Latest Fallout: New Vegas deserted cabin add-on looks great!
New Vegas, okay. That cabin needs someone to fix it up. Thanks for watching!👍😁
kool video!
Thank you!😁
Gly just showed that mine last week.
How did his explore compare to ours?
@@TomandJulieMineExploring I feel yours was better. He went down the ladder the same as you did but didn't check the side drifts as thorough as you did. I feel I seen the whole mine with your video.
Thanks for the feedback!
(in Northestern USA we have a tree called tamarack) very simular to Tamarisk tree found near Moab Utah In the Mine you were in those logs look like Tamerack or Tamarisk in your area. If I am guessing correct they probably are still quite green lol. They love water, Drying some times take forever. they don't like nails or paint, used for pier pilings framing in mines porches and decks, They dull saws soon. You don't need to treat them with anything. Just pound them into the ground. Those you have we harvested after May 1st of whatever year.
@richradley2706 Hi Rich. I think you are spot on with your information on the swamp trees. Julie and I had a good-sized tamarack forest in Central
Minnesota. They will last a long time before they rot. Larch and Tamarisk are similar if not the same.🌲
@@TomandJulieMineExploring I actually have Tamarack and Eastern European Larch on my property! It's not hard to see the difference when one is next to the other. I have seen a planted Larch in the Coastal redwood forest of California. It, like the Tamarack is a foliage tree. Needles turn yellow fall off and come back the next year.
I always liked seeing the yellow needles in the fall.
Hey Guys,
Looks like you explored the same mine as "Abandoned and Forgotten Places..?:
This week.. Episode #193. What are the odds.. Did you guys talk to Gly before exploring this mine.?
Great video! 20:01 20:05
Hi Bruce. I heard that Gly was here. We were actually at this mine several months ago. No, I did not talk to Gly before exploring this mine. We have explored this canyon extensively over several years as there are many workings, both large and small here. Thanks for watching and commenting!👍😁
It looked like an ice cave at the beginning, was that quartz?
Hi Peter. There might have been some quartz there. I know there were some copper related minerals there. Malachite, azurite, chrisocolla, chalcopyrite, and things like that. Thanks for the comment!👍😁
Dag-gum RUclips AI turned my notifications off from your fun explore videos but I re-hit that Bell icon and maybe the next time that old yt AI will do as asked, Bad Robot 🤖
7:32 That Blue/Gray Orebody typically indicates the presence of high amounts of Silver and Galena (Lead), Cinnabar can occur in the colors of Deep Scarlet to Brick Red, Cinnamon Brown to Orange. Many years ago I had 3 Cinnabar Lode Mines in Southern Oregon. A word of Caution to Rock Collectors, do not store Cinnabar Specimens indoors as when the indoor ambient temperatures inside your rig, house or shop changes Cinnabar releases highly toxic Mercury Vapor, also wash hands after handling it too.
Hi TBI Firefighter. I don't know why RUclips does that with the notifications. I hear it all the time and also people getting unsubscribed, too. Thanks for the mine story and information on Cinnabar. I know it can be some nasty stuff. Much appreciated!👍😁
I was going to say the Timbers are probably cedar or Juniper but when you when you show the split rail one that told me that it is definitely Cedar that's what they use to make split rails cuz it splits straight the weather is a well
Hi Mike. I think there might be a mix of trees here. I know that juniper grows in this area, so at least some of it is that. I don't know if the juniper splits as straight as cedar. Anyway, thanks for your input!👍😁
Hey it's my two favorite desert rats at it again. It's good to see you guys are out and about, I know the previous comment indicated that gly and Laura had just barely been in that mine but believe it or not I know right where that mine is, there's a lot of mines around that area mostly copper and like Julie said there's a lot of lead silver copper zinc no gold that I ever found . That's okay, those boys did some timber in there but that's not a very stable mine. Anyway thanks for taking me along with you again I really appreciate it. You two keep up the good work have fun and as always please be careful. Hope to see you again soon.
Hi Bob. Yes, there are a lot of mines in this area. If you like copper minerals, you will love New York Canyon. We have been to every mine here over the years. Thanks for watching and for the nice comment! We appreciate it. 👍😁
Julie has been working on her tan
Hi Bill. Yes, she gets tan pretty quickly. Thanks for watching!👍😁
looks like scrub juniper wood
Yes, that's probably correct. I sometimes say cedar when I should say juniper. Thanks for your input, John!👍😁
👋
Hi Lincoln!👍
Gly from A&FP was there not long ago.
Hi Robert. That what I heard. I hope our video compares favorable to Gly's. Thanks for watching!👍😁
Little,different from hot/humid Mexico
Oh boy, is it ever. It was so hot and humid in Mexico that we were taking three cold showers a day. 🥵 Thanks for the comment, Robert!👍
Im guessing the timbering was juniper wood..
Yes, I would agree. I always think of cedar when I see that type of wood, but juniper is the most abundant local tree.
Not sure, but I think the wood is juniper.
Hi David. I believe you are correct. That's about the only tree/shrub that grows in this area. Even though cedar and juniper belong to different genus, the wood has very similar properties. It's always good to hear from you!👍😊
4:12 Julie on strike today.
Haha, I'm looking around for her, and I see her sitting in the Jeep. I thought she quit. Lol😁

5x5 hello you too 5x5
Good morning, Michael. Thanks for watching!👍
That's one of the ugliest mines I've seen in awhile! Fractured rock, twisted timber, and logs shoved everywhere!! Housekeeping was not their main goal. 😂
Hi Lesley. Well, at least the timbers are doing their job for the most part. I always appreciate the work they did with the twisty tree parts to fit them together. It must be much harder to work with than milled and straight lumber. Thanks for the comment!👍😁
