 Good morning YouTube Mine Exploring fans Tom and Julie here We're out in the Jeep on the trail again. There's a road going up that mountain. I don't know if you can see it That might be where we're going to Find the mine that we're after today So let's go see what happens So here we're at a split in the road We're gonna take the upper one and climbs up to a bunch of mines up in here and we should have some Good exploring today. This is what we got to go up It's rough still plugging along here going up a wash now. I see some mines up in the distance here not too far There about six mines up this Canyon right here an old head frame quite a simple one a Slightly incline on the shaft Shaft is in good shape still No ladders it goes down a little ways and then goes straight down Goes a little ways at an angle There's another mine across the wash here So right from up top here Kind of jammed up part of an old chute there Here's the shaft Here's the mount for a hoist. I'm guessing or a winch Continuing on this We're off probably Got a ladder Boy that goes straight down after a while doesn't it? It's an old ladder and past the broken rung anyway So I'm probably down this ladder You can see it's all jammed up just right down below me. Yep. That's all there is to this one I'm sure it used to be quite a shaft, but not anymore 25 feet Okay, let's go find something else Here we've arrived at the mandatory can dump This is an old one. They are all rusted out You don't see them that rusted This is looking back at the Jeep and that structure the hill we came down These are some tanks here some old wooden tanks wooden style slat tanks There are some must have been a meal here because this is all millings This red stuff that we're walking on the tanks are full of dirt But I like these old wooden slat tanks Pretty nifty Looks like we're going up the hill here Just a plain rock portal here no Timbering Here we're picking up some track And a water line It's got a nice curve to it And then it's got an immediate curve to the other to the right Anyway, looks like a little side drift here. I don't know if they lost the vein or if they Exhausted it that way and came back here, but the tracks go to the right here Here is an inclined shaft with a windlass frame on it. You can see up here is the vein And they followed it down and it went right in line with this shaft here the windlass Supports aren't any ladders and it looks looks like it might be open past this first platform Well, let's continue on see what we find Okay, here's a nice shoot still in good shape it open So the track itself is gone, but the ties are still here Let's stay in the oh, it's a shoot. It's a shoot with the block behind it blocker It's just a stove up here. Okay. Okay, we've come up to a head frame and a little hoist room You can tell by all the oil on the floor The ladder is not in the greatest shape. I wouldn't say it's unusable though You have to get past about the but 1215 feet down. It's got a few rough spots. Somebody probably rolled a rock down in there or something fell in there And then after that it goes down It appears to flatten out for a second and then it gets steeper again So this is looking straight up above the shaft again. They follow this vein down You can see it up there. It's blue Red All right, let's continue on Julie We come up to a shoot right away again pretty jammed up What's that thing in there? Fabric There's your old jeans That's looking straight up and here we have a ladder going up Apparently not very sturdy if you just you just pull the right off That's just gonna go into this little pocket here. Let's see where this piece goes It's been a fire here at one time Another shoot the truck starts up again That open there must be an upper level here get the colorful vein right here That's pretty cool. Yeah, very blue. Oh boy. That's pretty very nice Another shoot another drop-off watch out ahead of you There's a bridge here Do you trust it no ladders here it goes right on down though Guessing there were ladders at one time So this is some graffiti here of emo Westman from looks like February or something anyway of 1934 31 And then there's some stuff up here to look at it. I don't know if that's more modern or what it looks like a dog's butt Look out below it says Alright, let's keep going here see what happens does Science in bad air ahead or nowhere Julie's got her oxygen monitor on so we'll let her go Then again Here's a Hank, I don't know what he's doing. He's got some kind of tool in his hand a little bit of a stoked room. Here's the What's left of the vein here Julie's doing the limbo Where the crab crawl? Is it that doesn't go very far does it get big again just right here, and it gets low again And Justin that's about the end of it because it's really getting hot in here There's a little stoked room here It's hot and humid Do we really give us report? Does it no cave in back there? Perfect graffiti Well, it was tracking here Still pretty warm though, isn't it? Yeah, it's humid How much timbering for support though in there? Just for shoots Yeah, we're still rolling, huh? I Don't see the vein anywhere anymore Unless it's right overhead here Hey, we found the face of it Right there and it's hot back here. Well, that's that We made it. I can't read all this This part of somebody's clothing like a part of a cover all made here. I Think it's a pair of arms No body with them though We have a bit of fabric in this one Crossing the bridge You can see this blue and green up here again So this does the same thing that that other shaft did It went down it follows you can see the contact zone on this big slab here It says up here that goes 156 feet down So and then it gets steeper about Like 60 feet down That must be the way the vein goes This is the most colorful portion that we've seen this today I like when you see the colors like that So I got my spotlight out here This that it goes down It flattens out a little bit and then it drops off again when it as it goes out of sight there so It doesn't look to be in terrible shape except for right up on the top here But 12 15 15 feet down Okay, that's the way we just came from that's probably the main part of the mine But there is also this little Drift to the left here. Let's go see where this goes Doesn't show evidence of there being track in here. So maybe it doesn't go very far. It's getting lower and lower What do you see? Here's the inside of the old cabin. There's a wood burning stove a little counter The sign few dollars $7 $8 Why is that still there? Nice stonework though. You got yourself a Coleman stove Saw my bed
