 Good morning YouTube Minexpores. Tom and Julie here. Yeah, she's here. We're at a fork in the road. Which way should we go? What do you say Julie? I say left. Okay, left it is. I see an open stove up there. Here's a huge water tank. It's been a long day at Minexpore. You haven't found much but we finally did find something here we think. Let's go in and check it out. The way through is a wide adit. Looks like there was track in here. I see the tie bumps. There's some wire and a hanger up here for ventilation and stuff. Always fun walking on the tie bumps. You feel like a drunken soldier. This is probably a silver mine because this is silver country. Big time silver country and it has been since when Julie, the 1870s. Here's one of these hanger timbers that has come down. There's the lead for it. Rather uneventful so far. Looks like we're 300 feet in. A couple of track ties over there. Are you doing that? Hey that wire. I guess I must have done it. I scared myself. 400 feet. Julie hold up for something. What a true spacious innit? It's got to be at least six to eight feet wide and the same tall. It looks burned but why would it be burned? Here comes the 500 foot mark. Now I'm a parent of Maine in here. I wonder what this wire was for. It doesn't appear to be electric. There's only one single wire. Something's happening up ahead here. Not quite sure what that was. Looks like Mr. Natural peeking over edge. Something from 1958. 600 feet in. Could be the end of the line, huh? Yeah. Oh I don't know if that's... Backfill? No it's not backfill that tight to the back of the mine. Point of stuff crumbly. There it is. Here the track starts up again. Starts hasn't been any in there yet. I don't know when things are backfilled. How they could be backfilled so tight up to the back. There's still wedging for vent right there. Hmm. I don't know. See this went on further because there's a water line down there and the track is still going here. I mean we were working our way back out. There was on the map another adit nearby here. We'll see if we can find something else. Too bad this one was caved or backfilled or filled from outside. That's what it looked like to me like there was a shaft or something that fills in. Straight ahead of me in the bighorn sheep. Wow look at the beautiful white mountains in the distance. Literally white and also they are the white mountains. We're up here on a plateau where there's not much going on. Interesting looking rocks around here. Well we are in a huge open strip mine. They've got the whole top of this mountain peeled off and there are several levels to this. It's tiered. We're coming up to a big flat here. It's freezing cold. Wind's blowing. So here's our tiered sections. Just like I said. Look at the mountain. It's beautiful back there. Let's go along here a little ways and see what we see. Wow you just don't realize how massive these tiers are until you get up on them. This has got to be about oh this is 50 feet down for sure. Just look at the massive amount of stuff people have moved over here. Crazy. Some cool minerals up here too. Everything up here looks pretty wild. There's some of that boronite. There's something blue. So that looks to be one of the mineral intense veins up there. We're beyond that big boulder in the middle of the stream. Kind of red and so this will be kind of the stuff that's coming out of it. I don't think this is the desirable stuff but this is all just waste but there's a lot of interesting looking rocks coming out of there. You can go over this way a little more. It looks more limestone-ish although I could be wrong. There'll be some to another one. Well I have to say the scale of these mines is pretty crazy. Huge. I don't know if you can even tell how big this is from where I'm standing. I'm not sure if she was a bird dog in an attic but it's not there. I've been cut away by this all this open cutting. There's another opening. Okay this is the drift that you see. It's similar to the upper part of the mine. There's no timbering. It sure is interesting material that's going to be yet. There's the face.
