ABANDONED Mojave cabins - What else did we Discover?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- On this adventure we explore another old miners cabin which has seen better days and….did we discover one of the infamous Mojave labs or possibly a mining operation that shouldn't be there? Either way it was very strange and we didn't want to hang around to find out.

Great video as always. Thank you for the shout out, you are still my favourite channel.
You’re welcome and thank you so much.
I've always loved the Mojave. Thanks for the little tour! I'll have to get back down there sometime 😊. Didn't see any hot water heaters in the pile of appliances, gotta say I'm a bit disappointed....
So were we… I mean how in the world did they heat up their hot water? It’s insane to try and wrap our heads around it!
A good trip and paper to boot nice thank you ALL stay safe!
Thanks Dave. You too
Frank built his cabin the year i was born, and i like his doorless loo! I must confess to leaving the door to an outhouse i once owned opened when i was sure no neighbors were about. It was a beautiful view in Michaux State Park in Pennsylvania. Thanks for bypassing that creepy property, we viewers want you guys safe!
Incredible that he lived out there for so many years.
Glad you enjoyed it Deborah
Everything seemed so isolated, or mysterious, but interesting. Thanks so much for the background info, of what you knew about, Andrea. It was startling to see other *tourists at one of the sites. I bet that doesn't occur often. another great video, Andrea and Steven
🏚🙏🏻🏝👏🏻👏🏻
At the big mine we were actually with some off roading buddies. This was filmed over several days. Would be nice to have more info about the places. You know me!
In Australia they call them a Dunny.😂Nice work. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Interesting adventure! Thanks for taking us along!
Beautiful area where Frank lived. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and your family. 🥰👍👍👍👍👍(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
Thank you Rose.
Another Awesome adventure with my pin and beers 🍻 cheers that was crazy the campers there love you guys Steve your the luckiest man on the planet such a beautiful lady to be with
You’re so sweet Raymond. Thank you for your kind words.
@@PinInTheAtlas just speaking the truth from my heart 💜
Really enjoy being taken along on your off-the-beaten-path journeys of discovery, Andrea and Steve. 👍
Happy to have you along Noah
Great video of an interesting location! The storytelling and insights about the place always leave me feeling both entertained and informed. Plus, you really know how to capture the vibe. Anyway, Great Vid!!!
Thanks so much. Really appreciate your support.
Great video, as always! Glad you avoided the (possible) meth lab camp.
Stay safe, you two!
Thanks Kerry
If you wanted to get away from people, the Mohave is a great place. Really crazy that there are so many of those cabins, homesteads, mines, etc., in the middle of nowhere.
Dozens of them. Makes you wonder how many there were originally!
You 2 keep finding so many interesting PINs! Thanks again for your hard work and good videography. Bon Voyage!
Our pleasure David.
Good to see Toto showing its strength there at the start :-)
Got a strong case of deja vu regarding the second cabin, with the line of appliances outside; maybe I've seen it in a Wonderhussy video?
Possibly Peter. We’ve come across a few places that have lots of machines outside. They start to merge together!
Great photography and video! 🙂 Looks like you had some company for part of it!
We were joined by some off roading buddies.
Thanks for the compliments Norm.
VERY COOL,,NICE SKY,,.WE HAVE 8-15 INCHES ON THE WAY WITH MANY PARTS OVER 18 INCHES..STAY AWESOME..
And you stay warm Ralph!
This started out like a time waster. Especially when you came upon the questionable trailers. But it became quite a good explore. Gramma Candy
That’s how it goes sometimes Candy. We don’t know what we’ll find
Hi Steve and Andrea - Happy Easter! The Mojave Desert looks very bleak, compared with the Sonora Desert ( having visited the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum near Tucson). Love the use of an old empty power cable reel as an occasional table. Very interesting video, with some good arty angle shots!
Thanks Brian. Trying different shots. Happy Easter 🐣 to you too.
I love the Mojave; it's stunningly beautiful and spiritual. Alas, cartels own So Cal these days. Muy peligro.
So true
Thank-you for going around that meth place. There was nothing in there to risk anyone's life. Odd about the fence. With all the drones the feds fly. That fence would tend to draw attention.
I guess the feds can fly drones even though it’s in a preserve! Apparently there’s quite a few labs out there
Hello Andrea and Steve these types of explores in my mind are very intriguing where the 5 th wheel trailer and motorhome is there looks to be a international truck with a water drilling rig looks like current workings someone has a investment in it all and put that fence up and glass seems be intact i would say a mining operationis has started .Nice story about the prospector had been out there for 30 some years this as allways a top notch adventure .p.s. Andrea have you gotten your icecream yet ? And Steve did you buy your cans of SPAM yet 😂⛏️🇺🇸🤔
Possibly. But if it was a legitimate mining operation there would be a road. This was hidden. Don’t know how they got the equipment out there!
Steve did get his spam. I’m waiting on the ice cream.
We’re going to be getting our mail from SD sent to a friends house. I’ll let you know when it arrives.
I know where 2 of these cabins are located (at 7:00 and following and the one at 14:41 and following). I knew the restorer of the first one but won't mention his name. I've stayed there a couple times. It was a clean and tidy place. The back room was originally an open porch, but sometime after he died, someone enclosed it. I have a rancher pal who swims the the Colosseum Mine lake, but considering how likely polluted the water is, I don't recommend doing that.
Thanks Jan. He did do a lot of restoration. Such a tragedy. Back porch makes sense. Looked like nobody had been there for quite some time
We wouldn’t swim there either. Not with all those chemicals
Fun Video ............... Keep up the great work!
Thanks Bill
It does seem lonely for the gentleman to live there for 30 years, but he must have been happy. Those open shafts are sure scary for all the wildlife I'd think.
We often think that about the wildlife Lorna.
The Colosseum Mine is now fenced off and being worked off and on, illegally as per BLM. You can't get any closer than where you parked. One of the cabins you visited has a graffiti message pleading for information on a lost plane. I visited that plane on a four day outing, came home and a few days later was at that cabin with my wife and saw the message. Very eerie how random that was. They cast a wide net trying to bring him home. I hope if I'm ever lost someone goes to that much trouble to find me. I tried to get to another of these cabins with my brother in October and cut two sidewalls on my Jeep tires. Nine plugs on one side, six on the other and we finished the trip. Didn't get back to that cabin that trip though. I'm headed into the Mojave in a couple weeks and then into Death Valley shortly after.
Wonder what they’re doing at the mine?
We saw the message about the lost pilot and filmed it for the plane crash video. Did you see that one?
@@PinInTheAtlasI don't know what they are mining for. One of the Mojave groups posted that the BLM put out to notify them of any mining activity up there. They don't have their permits in order but started doing something anyway. It comes from a trustworthy source. I've been up there 4 or 5 times, no need to go back. :)

Pretty cool stuff you found out there! Idk what part of the Mojave you’re in there but they had some nice outhouses! Louvered windows in that one! We ran across a nice one more over on the west side kinda Tehachapi area and it still had a Sears Catalog in it.
Now you know the primary use of the Sears Catalog was not for shopping.. 💩
East of there across the Highway we’d always see little ratty old camper trailers belonging to the Basque Sheepmen who’d end up there with their flocks before a shearing, and although at first glance looked abandoned, a telltale bottle of wine or some laundry strung up inside was evidence enough you should not mess with that camp.
Yep it was to wipe!
Thanks Charley
Always great videos.
That second place you stopped at (the one with the RV's) could also be part of a "patented" mine claim.
That third one almost looks like a cabin where a certain Hussy spent a weekend with 3 or 4 friends.
Not to give anybody ideas, but, when I rebuild the loo at one of my mine claims, I'm going to build it to look like Dr. Who's Tardis.
🤣
It’s definitely on BLM land and couldn’t find an active mining claim!! But you never know.
Those adopt-a-cabins are great and can save people’s lives in a pinch.
There is so much to see in the Mojave. Unfortunately due to the flooding a lot of the roads are totally washed out.
The Tardis is an old English telephone box
@@PinInTheAtlas It's hard to say: of the 3 (un-patented) claims that I'm buying, one is a well-known & historic one, but if I recall correctly, none of them appear on BLM maps, though they're all pretty old. Seems if they're not active on the books, they fall off! I kind of like that, because the one nearest my home hasn't been visited by anybody other than myself, the Nevada Bureau of Mines, and cows, for decades. While the wind has blown down one cabin, the other one is fairly unscathed because the claim is well hidden (though it has an amazing view!), and nobody knows that its there. 🙂
I'm sure you know - but if viewers don't: if the area in question is shown in white on a BLM topo map, then its privately owned land.
@@PinInTheAtlas Yup...I'm going to rebuild the out house to resemble it. 😁
On US-26 west of Mount Hood, in Oregon, there's a school bus stop in one of the small towns that resembles one.
Another great adventure
A barbie next to the loo, hmm...
I think I'll just bring my own tacos and beer.
I would not want to impose on anyone...
This site gives new meaning to BYB...
Oh, the reason that the one loo has no door is because in American tradition you are supposed read a newspaper while you do your private business, that way you can't see anyone watching you.
"True story..." 😊
🤣👍❤️
2nd "Loo" @13:06.
Good stuff y’all , you know your history of these old cabins, interesting history! Happy Trails!
Thanks. Some of the history is more difficult to find out! Glad you enjoyed our adventure
Here we call the out houses "crappers"...
In England some call it a John
Whatever it was ,, it was illegal..! Still very interesting.
That’s what we figured. Didn’t want to hang around just in case
@@PinInTheAtlas yup I wouldn’t either
Thanks!
❤️ always appreciated T. Thank you
@@PinInTheAtlas absolutely
That was a good comment about the BBQ , That's for sure cuz you don't want your food to taste like SH_ _ .
You certainly don’t!
I loving it❤
Thanks Eric
Thanks Pin. A little help. How much of the Mojave Road, is a passable road ? Would a person have to sleep in their vehicle(4x4) or have a tent ?
Not sure now Mike. Since the last couple of storms more of the roads have been washed out.
Yes definitely high clearance 4x4. Go with someone else too. Check at the Ranger station first to see what’s open and what isn’t. We obviously camped out
Thanks You Pin.
Lol i bet its someone's claim. That would be why there was a camera and fence.but it could be a meth lab,thats a long ways to drive though.
Apparently labs are way out there. But you’re probably right about it being someone’s claim!
@@PinInTheAtlasI pulled it up and it's on BLM, but not listed as private property. There is a mine not too far away, maybe it's related to that?
@@doug6885 possibly. But strange no road!
I wonder if the car accident was alcohol related?🤔
Not as far as we know, just a tragedy
That is someones property..
Have you ever been to the Mojave Desert?
Maybe it's off the book site for the CIA. 🤫🤭
You never know Wayne!
What if that was some family’s home that needed to live off the grid for safety. Sold em out huh. Ya
Don’t think so somehow.
Never heard of Seagrams 7 ? 🤷♂ Try a delicious 7&7. { Seagrams 7 & 7up }. 😋
