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”: Good morning everyone! I just wanted to say thank you once again for helping the channel reach 140K subscribers. YOUR AWESOME!! If you haven’t seen the video where we first visited this mine please go to Episode 101 or click on the link in the description area below. There you will see all the other artifacts we found in this mine. Have a great weekend!
@DAMIAN WAGNER We call them a coyote hole.
I got stuck in an adit above Canyon City, Ore., lucky my partner was behind me to pull me back The back of the mine caved on my back going out. The was bones of a dead coyote in the tunnel. He didn't make it out.
Thanks so much for sharing with us! Neat stuff!
@@PabloDiablo682 There's less of them in mines then there are topside. Unless you're wading through bat guano, mines are pretty sterile...Well, okay, maybe not badger holes.
18 minutes in and I'm like. Yeah you're definitely nuts.
“You’d have to be out of your mind to go down in here” as Gly casually makes his way down lol
I was shouting at my screen "Don't do it Gly! It's too small!" XD
It was down-right scary to watch Gly squeezing through one too-tight place you could get trapped behind after another. I kept telling myself the title doesn't have "In Memoriam" in it so he did make it out alive.
Jug? Demijon,Probably held scrumpy or cider,or moonshine it's for brewing
A true claustrophobia inducing episode. When you were squeezing through the gap I had to take a break to catch my breath. Man you are nuts!
I've never been an anxious person, but I was about to lose it watching him do that 😆
Yeah I was thinking the exact same thing
Oh my God I was TERRIFIED!!!
Only this, and Mr. Ballen' videos about cave diving have made me need to breathe while I watch them
What you are showing us is really cool and all, but safety is paramount ! ! Don't get yourself hurt for us.
10:25 "You would have to be out of your mind to go down in here" proceeds to go down in there... 🤣🤣🤣
This one is really one of the Best explorations that I've seen. You can feel curiosity, and the spirit of boldly going forvard for the sake of it. Just go on, and never stop man. You have all our support!
“Gly”: Thank you very much!
Hard to comprehend the amount of blood, sweat and tears that must’ve went into building these mines.
OMG!! at 19:57, squeezing through that little space made my palms sweat!! and I am at home!! You are just amazing which is why you made it to 140k subscribers!! Keep it coming! Thanks for taking us along and teaching us about the mining business!!
19:40 minutes in and I'm so happy to see you squeeze in that little drift down there.....means that you feel better and that's the best thing we can see..... A bit sad not seeing Mr. M. I remember he said that he would have "b/roled" this explore when reaching 10k subs..... But I can understand why he couldn't get that far down there. But you have a very good exploring partner, randy is a great man too....
Thank you guys for every explore you share with us.....
Stay safe....
“Gly”: He knows his limitations and I never push him past his comfort level. Well… most of the time. Lol
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces so much love for the old one 😂
Congrats on 140K subscribers! After finding this channel a while ago I've gone back and watched all the videos from the beginnings!. What a great progression in technical and cinematic quality!
Randy was cracking me up “Hey it’s an old shovel wouldn’t it be funny if there was a yellow rope tied to it”
19:10 I am glad you are the one doing this shit because that sort of tight situation in a cave makes my skin crawl just watching it. Been there done that when I was younger cave exploring, and never again!
"Thanks for inviting us along?"............... THANK YOU(!!!) for the added burden of toting that camera system and Bringing Us Along! You, Randy and Mister M are the best, Gly. As long as you're 'upright and wasting oxygen,' I'll be doing the same as I enjoy your shows.....
16:31 That may be the bottom of the mine, it is exactly what the miner see's all the time. A cramped small space because that is where they are digging. As they move down, the opened up spaces are always behind them.
Instead of "Hold my beer", Gly says "Hold my gear" when faced with a ya shouldn't do ir situation.
GLY, your nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake but just as amazing. I love your videos and I’ve always found caves and old mines fascinating. Now I can live my dreams through you and your adventures. Keep up the great work and stay safe God bless you and Randy .
"Have to be out of your mind to go down in here" and there goes Gly.
The cement bag came from the Portland cement company that was based out of Salt Lake city in Utah. The plant is still there but it's now a haunted house.
Very cool explore. You certainly went for it on that one. Thanks for showing us. 😎🧨⛏⚒
When you showed us the empty packet of Chesterfield's, I immediately thought of Steve1989MREInfo reviewing them from old ration/MRE packs
That looks really fun. I work at one of the open pit copper mines in AZ, and am always keeping an eye out for artifacts on the native land just off our stockpiles. Only thing I have found so far is an old WF & S MIL bottle that I was able to date to being produced around 1915 to 1920. Our stockpiles up against one of the mountains are full of signs of old prospects and just general older human activity. Anywho, thanks for the fun exploration, and see ya on the next one!
I remember watching you when it was just you and Bob haha... those were the good ole days but I feel alot more at ease when you have your team with you to help watch over you. Its been fun watching your channel grow and I'm sure you are proud of your achievements thus far. Keep up the great work guys👍
Hi gly _randy great video gentleman well done friends please keep the great videos coming and please please keep safe in the mines for Scotland 🙂
Thanks a ton for this video. I've been through many small holes like the one you went through but that was when I was 70, Im 75 now and my body just won't do it anymore.
Really missed Mr. M, you really notice when he isn’t there. Congrats on hitting 140,000 subscribers! Much deserved.
Excellent channel, real mix of fun facts and entertainment, best on RUclips
“Gly”: Thank you!
congrats on the 140K subs -- wow, your one crazzzy old man, crawling through those tight places -- but thanks for showing us , cause I wouldn't' go there, that's for sure - LOL
Fantastic!!!, and I remember when you broke 10,000 subscribers.
Thanks for letting us tag along with you on this adventure. Great mine ! That narrow drift was hiding all that great material !
Another awesome video! I don't normally like soundtracks in videos but that synthwave fits like a glove. Well done!!
Great video Gly. Little sketchy back in that hole. All that cracked rock hanging above you made me hold my breath. Yikes! Let Randy know he's doing a great job. Was cool seeing him really get involved in this mine with you. Tell Mr. M hello and stay safe guys, and Gly...Congrats on hitting the big 140K. Well done and well deserved. See y'all next week.
Congratulations on 140K, a well deserved milestone my friend 😎👍
I wish I was 19 and 125 lbs too...Loved the explanation of the artifacts. I wish I could explore like I use too, severe back pain prevents me from doing what I like. I really enjoy these Saturday mornings videos
Yay! Happy 141K! ...and... "You have to be out of your mind to go down in here," says Gly, going down in there. Love you dudes. Wonderfulness and stopey winzey goodness abounds! Holy cats, those are squeezy spaces. I have seen neolithic mines in the Netherlands that were that claustrophobic...never thought you'd be squirming through them in Nevada. Exciting stuff! Love the narration. THANK YOU for this awesomeness!
Yikes! Gly, you are a a brave man. I was getting claustrophobic just watching you climbing into those narrow areas. Best mine exploring adventure yet! Thanks Gly and Randy for a way cool video.
Another one? Damn this channel gets better and better! Thanks to the entire crew
Awesome episode! Had me sucking in my gut when you were crawling through the skinny. Lol. Good times.
You always make me gasp at your videos your by far better then riding a rollercoaster. Stay safe my man.
Poor Randy you had him a nervous wreck crawling threw that little hole 😆 we love you Randy such a good dude great video guys 👍
19 and 160 pounds! Same here! 65 and 235 now! That’s why I watch you! Thanks for great entertainment!
At the 2m 44s mark when Randy shifts the camera to the right he captures an awesome anomaly by Gly's left foot. It move from left to right towards the bottom of the screen... Great capture!
Congrats on the 140k subs! 👍😀
Yeah, what was that?
I vicariously explore through your adventures. I have ALS, so I'm pretty much paralyzed. Have you ever considered using remote control cameras on a small vehicle or drone to scout those tight squeezes? Stay safe and thank you for letting me virtually tag along!
That was really rich with artifacts , to cool !! When you where down in the bottom of that shaft just after shimmying through that hole the camera caught some big chunks of mineral behind you , I tried to pause and get a better look lol
That big ore bucket was awesome , I love that old stuff too... Glad you made it out safe and sound !!
Your videos never cease to amaze me! When you showed what turned out to be a sheet of metal, I at first thought it was a sleeping bear!!! Yep, definitely would be nice to be 18 again when my eyeballs worked better.
Instant thumbs up before i watch the video👍
Id would love to see the actual lighting conditions were like when the miner was digging this mine .Was it much brighter than a candle or anywhere close to your led lights . Gly youve got nerves of steel wiggling thru those tiny passages. This is the most dangerous or claustrophobic video yet.
“Gly”: This mine would have been all excavated by carbide lamps.
I find myself feeling some happy anxiety and adrenal rushes at the same time having a big smile on my face during your squirming and squeezing through the small holes🙈
Now I know how the doctor felt when Gly was born! I kinda feel like we should wish him happy birthday 😂 very cool explore!
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
@jeeze soon as the kids are done with school. 2 years left... the wife and I are headed south to go visiting....
Thanks Gly and Randy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best part of my Saturday morning! Another quality Episode from Gly Coolness and Randy! Congrats on and hw Awesome 140K subs!
Getting claustrophobic just watching!
cracking episode gly ,good idea not letting on the identity of this mine as it would be looted in no time like everything is nowadays, the back of that passage you squeezed under looked a bit iffy
Like a certain Canadian couple on you tube who like to take things for their collection
Awesome video! Greetings from the Netherlands!
Possibly one of best explorations ever, and a good advert for "Kelvin Klein" under pants. More please 🙂
Oh boi! So much excitement!
Think Gly took the skin off his belly with that one . Great video as always, did anyone see the galena man waving back at Gly 27:05 .
I did see it. Beautiful
Congratulations on 140k its been a pleasure watching the channel grow from around 40k when we subbed. Its taken us 2 years just to reach 450 🤣. Love how you have developed the cinematics its really come a long way. Keep it up 👊
“Gly”: Thank you!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces no thankyou sir, as someone who has also had to learn all the editing and stuff myself too, I maybe appreciate the time and effort required more so than average joe, its no easy feat and deserves the respect where its due. 👊
I would NEVER go the places you are going, but after all you have been through, it must make you feel really alive to risk your life!!!!....Best explore yet!!!!!
“Gly”: It really does! The spirit of adventure is palatable.
Hi from Syracuse NY brother and thank you for sharing your thoughts and adventures and everyone else
At 7:59 1929 is the year my dad was born. He lived in Henderson NV and and died in 1983. His passion was collecting antique bottles, out on the desert. He loved the Nevada desert.
found a large section of newspaper from the late 1800's in a mine in Calico mining area near Barstow, California..........those mines are full of interesting things that people just tromp over and don't even take the time to look at...........i framed that section of newspaper and still have it...............
This was fantastic and Randy is warming up to his roll, talking and being charming and all. I really enjoyed it, Gly even though I was sure this time you are not going to come back out of that narrow hole you slithered through. But of course you did, else there would be no video! :) About your remark wishing you were 18 again; , but we know age has little to do with circumferences. :)
Always take a specimen: I have found nice little nuggets of gold in the quartz used in the Walmart parking lot here in Chicago! I've also found garnets and greenstone mixed in with the general paving rocks they use for landscaping...
Great explore!! Congratulations, I know you will have more subscribers soon! Thanks so much for sharing 😊
From 2 day,s i look here, waiting for my cancer operation with Davincy operate system, this finding as a miner so incredible exciting to watch. Do not know how to thank you, for this to watch. All the best from Holland (EU) .
Your 140K is well deserved
Gly I lucky to be able to do that, I'm old and fat. Wish I had tine cameras bak in my exploring days, all I had was a huge JVC Camcorder.
Another great adventure Gly. Keep up the good explores. Thanks for taking us al along.
Yes! Finally! I’ve waited for too long!
Gly this is spectacular I love the close up photos of the artifacts very professional
“Gly”: Thank you! I liked how that turned out myself and I think I’ll be doing more of that in future videos.
The Old Gold cigarette packs may be pre 1936 as after that year the words 'Pull Tab' were printed on the top left front of packs. That capitalised font used on the 'The Treasure of Them All' was also in use in the 30's and into the 40's.
140k subs, congratz :)
"Wear Calvin Klein for comfort when exploring Abandoned and Forgotten Places." 15:02 Happen chance product placement? Hehe. BTW, thanks for yet another thoroughly captivating adventure video.
LOL 😂 I had to go back to see what Calvins you had on. Should have known. 🤭
“Gly”: I’ve been wearing them ever since Back to the Future made them popular in the 80’s. There damn comfortable!
@@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces At least you don't have to worry about your teenage mom hitting on you when you're down in the mines!
Thank you for going back and showing us all that neat artifacts and I agree on what you did on not showing the griffitti that was written to preserve a priceless gem. They are so rare and hard to find anymore. Love you episodes and I dont miss a one including Mr. M
That was very cool...it is amazing what you will do for your fans.
Absolutely brilliant I wouldn't have done it myself but thank you Gly love from Lincolnshire England. That ore bucket is a absolute fine one.I think those men who were working in their were a bit smaller than you are Gly one good thing about this upload is that we know you obviously made it out of there 😉😀😜😄👍
"What the heck was I thinking?"
Same thing we're asking.
Great episode. So many interesting artifacts. Enjoyed the close up shots. Really great adventure. Thank you so much for the hard work.
(Happy Birthday, Randy. :-)
@Abandoned and Forgotten Places
You need a small cheap remote control car or get a long collapsible stick with a small inexpensive 360 cam on the end to see in small areas like that without putting yourself in "questionable" situations lol. Would be nice to find like a 10+ foot collapsible stick. Just wanted to let you know we enjoy your vids and always look forward to the next adventure you guys have. Thanks!
I just found your channel a few days ago and I've been binge watching!! Thank you for doing so much hard work to bring us such amazing content!!
Kinda got my heart ❤ 💙 rate up there Gly.Thanks i needed the workout.Great video.
Thank you for posting these. Our family enjoys watching these.
That was a FUN explore! Thanks!!
You two went through an insane amount of effort to navigate this place! My only comfort throughout was the knowledge that you must have survived the whole ordeal to upload this video.
Gly, this was awesome, what a terrific video, Edit: Gly please be careful breathing all that dust in we don't want you to get silicosis, be safe out there.
I got some Lux soap recently from a Dollar Store. And I remember when Grape Jelly was made with grapes 🍇. I’m very old. Miners were working here when I was born. 😳😳
You are an absolute MAD LAD. I’m glad you document this, as I am too much of a wuss to do it myself. Not to mention how dangerous it is! I live in Salida, Colorado, and there are over 1,000 abandoned and active mines within a 100 mile radius of my home. I have curiously poked my head into the portals and dug through many a tailings pile (found lots of cool stuff that way) but even if I did have the expertise to actually go inside the mines, it’s almost impossible, as most of them are flooded and blocked by large walls of ice throughout the year. These mines are 10,000 + feet in elevation in the Rocky Mountains. But the history is incredible. I have done a lot of historical recreation work to preserve the buildings, train cars, and cabins built around these mines and mining towns. There is some amazing architecture up here. I bet you would love it here. I could even give you a tour! Lol 😂
9:08 Wish I could date that but Chesterfield apparently had exactly the same pack from like 1912 into the late 1940s.
10:38 definitely looks like a passage made for a minor miner
14:23 I wasn't there staring at it in person, but are you sure that wasn't 1920? The edges of the last digit aren't pinched like the other visible 8, the 7/8 x something mark on the top right.
39:05 Rose brand, likely canned in Salem, OR by the California Packing Corp (calpack) from 1919 to the late 20's They eventually became Del Monte. It IS rare, rare enough I can barely find mention or example on google (which is why the 'likely', having to infer from similar can labels on other products, and a report of the Salem bean cannery)
39:30 Old Gold was created in 1926, and ran till today. Packs are unfiltered, looks to be pre-WWII but there's nothing to date them any tighter than that. Babe Ruth pitched (hah) these.
Randy was saying what we were all thinking. That was a little crazy! It got my anxiety up!
I wish i could afford to buy one of those samples, my 10 year old daughter love's the sparky rock's. We find some in creeks but what you guys find is awesome
12:00 nope Nope NOPE ! I ain't goin nowhere I can't easily turn around in.
Wow... that was some tight passage. only 1/4 into this so far and hoping those ladders hold up!
I love the amount of thought you put into your work.
Awesome video!!! can't wait to see more!
Always look forward to these adventures to begin my weekend!
Great mine. Thank you for taking us along & climbing all around.
Thats what im talking about, thank you for sharing the history.. You , Jeff Williams and Frank do a awsome job... And yes for some of us that our mobility sucks.. thanks agian for the trip down.. And the look on your face of "oh shit" is priceless.
“Gly”: Thank you!
One of you best videos so far, Gly. Thank you.
You're not fat at all buddy! Climbing through those mines is hard work for anyone.
Absolutely insane performance with the new camera. Really worth it.
Hey, I have always thought that having a big fan tour of a mine sweepstakes would be fun!!! Take the winner on a mine explore with y'all!!! Yeah I know the logistics and such might make it hard but hey if the winner is a fan they know the things!!!
“Gly”: I did that once and things didn’t turn out so well afterwards.
