 Here's an interesting looking chute, looks like the track that has gone right up onto the top of that, they've been cut off now, that's actually a screen too, so the portal is over here, timbered, heavily, and track coming out of it, hello youtube mine lovers, Tom and Julie here, looks like a nice mine portal right in front of us here, some pretty heavy-duty tracks coming out of it, and heavy-duty timbering, Julie's already in, heavy-duty timbering right at the portal, alright that's looking back at the portal we just came through, kind of a nice one with the traditional timbering, let's go this way, follow Miss Julie, we don't have any idea what to expect in here, as we've never been in this one before, it's straight as an arrow to start with, which leads me to believe they're trying to intersect something, or it's a haulage from something higher up, okay I'm back, here we lose the tracks, I was waiting for something to happen because who wants to go through a boring haulage at it with nothing happening, here the tracks end it, and here the ties end, and it's getting a little lower, looks like something's happening up here, an intersection, a greasy, greasy intersection, wow hmm a huge tank of something, wow this is different than the, boy the strong smell of grease and oil right here, that is a big tank too, that's gonna be, I don't know, big, well there's a ladder, okay all right we decided upon the right first, of course there's a ladder up there, this vein is obviously gonna be sharp angle to it, 45 anyway, right where we are, so look at the backside of the chute they used, like a nail hole or something to to use for a load count, kind of neat, all right really let's keep moving, there's a couple more chutes here, I think this is all just one big stope along this, this vein and as you can see the angle of it versus a traditional drift, here we're picking up the tracks again, a lot of boxes and supplies right here for some reason, oh man that goes that way too, well let's take the left to follow the tracks, wow a very greasy smelling, this doesn't look like it goes real far, I'll also take a peek while I'm here, you know this just ends right here, a lot of big stalls and stope, the stope goes up at the angle of the vein, all right back to the where we were in the main line here, we have a huge pillar up there, a lot of miners junk, cable, so this ends at a chute right there, this looks like an anchor that would go into rock and you would thread it in it would tighten itself up, there's a loop on the other end of it, onward, a little pocket to the left, no track in this particular piece, see here again I think they were trying to intersect something because there's no vein here, well it's gonna end at something I got a feeling, maybe a big chute, that's my guess, I feel like we're going in a circle, something's got to happen one of these days, hold on now, we haven't been here before have we, no, this ends over there, looks like, okay we came from that way, a big blocker of some sort, emergency accident, what do you see, boy this is a real maze in here, what a crazy mine, well here they found the vein again, they left a few pillars and this is looking down, it's about a 45 degree angle you can see from, this is level, there's a pipe down in there, does that pipe come up over there, oh yeah there's the end of that pipe, wow, it is a nut, ouch, wow what a maze, there's a ladder system going up this way, it's just going up into this stove I believe, and then let's look over here, another one going down here, oh boy you could have Alkanja brought in here, there's some cribbing, holding some waste, this crazy mine, look at all the little shirt stalls, I gotta say it must have been handy if you were small, if you wanted to be a miner, those are about three feet at the most, and that's the end of it, what's down here I think, this ladder is just sitting here, it's not mounted, it's deeper than it looks down here, there's a big hole in front of me, I might not be able to get back up there, it's deeper than it looks here, it's always deeper than it looks, yeah there's a big hole over here, I'm showing where that hole is over there, well that's up there where Julie is I just came down this little part here, it's this exit, but when you look down here, I wouldn't take this next ladder without a rope, because it's just sitting there, and it goes down below that quite a ways, oh this thing right here could be an exit, that looks like it goes over that way, but I'm not going to go down this thing, let's just sit in there and straight down, probably 60 feet, this ladder is about 15 feet, so back up I go and let's go explore more of this mine there's a box that says Robert Shaw, there's an old pair of work gloves, some nice galvanized nails, I always use a nail, some of the miscellaneous stuff, a piece of drill steel, other box, gas pressure regulator, what are you doing with gas in here alright let's go, we should be headed back to that big tank, this is a huge area, alright here's where we came in from the left here, these are your turn around on this piece, here's this big tank, I don't know what this was, it looks to be drying there now this attic goes straight ahead there, and it goes down pretty good, and there's another tank to the right here, some plumbing, there's that big tank and then the portal in the background, let's go straight ahead and see if it goes anywhere as long as we're here, let's check it out, I'm getting worn out, there's a little short ladder here with that little writing from one friend to another deceased friend, I hope this isn't where he died there's a small rope that goes all the way up this, looks like an ore pass, with just a short ladder at the end, so I don't know if, I wouldn't be very old though, 04, 14, 15, 21, okay, looks like there are some sample bags here, they're labeled, okay, and it's not going to tell us anything somebody brought a string in here, they were all getting lost, which you could kind of get turned around here, we're in a lot of sample bags, there's some different stuff, oh, I wonder where this goes, this has a little different fuel to it, I imagine it's going to intersect that same 45 degree angled vein that we've been running around on all day that's kind of weird isn't it, so they never did intersect that other vein, I don't know, but that's the face of this thing, let's see what this burl up sock says, if you don't mind, because I don't give it too much raccoop on you very large tank, that's got to be what about, oh that's got to be a few hundred gallons anyway right, it's probably 12 or 15 feet long, there's that crazy spot, there's the rest of this crazy mine, long ladder isn't it, we're getting our exercise anyway, you don't need to do a stair stepper when you're a mine ladder climber they're looking at us
