...what is needed is a laser stage/fx spotlight. A small one powered by a rechargeable battery-pack...one which can be focused. This way, when one peers down a 100'+ deep shaft or a long stope...one may actually see what's down, up or in these otherwise still-dark maws. As a regular spotlight has a tendency of greatly expanding the light-beam over a distance...
A laser spotlight can be focused for greater depth-illumination...
It's amazing how the Meat Wagon Mine in Nevada looks nothing at all like the Santa Rosa Mine west of Death Valley. Nothing to see here folks... move along.
careful guys sometimes mines are abandon because of gas in the mines you should take a gas detector or a bird with you down there, and dont smoke ether,
DUDES! Your lighting was totally Inadequate! Every Party should have had TWO sources of light and an third back up. Disappointed in your not showing all artifacts like what was in the cans you found other then Modern Soap! LOL
Been in many of old mines in AZ and found a box of Dynamite in one..
Someone spent some serious money in that mine with the Narrow Gauge Rail you was walking on.
only one source of decent light , no rope or rescue gear , no gas monitor, nothing in the way of safety whatsoever but interesting all the same .Enjoy and be SAFE let others know where you are you never know you may be glad you did oneday especially going into abondoned mines. I know because ive been an underground miner for 15 yrs, im not some smart ass with too much time on my hands, take care
Felt like I was back at work

I am glad that block wall was pre-vandalised for your convenience. I love old mines, but in my "old" age, I have gotten much more cautious.
