Not possible 😂

I LOVE MESQUITE

This is awesome, thank you RRT!

Very interesting video. I can't seem myself visiting Nipton any time soon, but who knows, I just might book myself a night at the all famous Hotel California. Thanks for putting this together for us to enjoy!

This is an extremely generous assessment of Malone.

Upstate NY is beautiful, nothing to do with 💩 🕳️ of ny city

I had driven through Caliente a number of times, but never really paid that much attention to it. That was until January 2022, at around 11:30 at night, my wife and I were driving my truck on US93, pulling a small box trailer about 5 miles south of Caliente, when a wild horse walked out in front of us. I had installed a dash cam, before the trip, so looking at the footage, I had three seconds from the time the horse got on to the road, in front of us, and the time I hit it. I managed to drive to the right side of the lane, as far as I could, since there was no shoulder and the left front of my truck hit the rear end of the horse. I had to continue driving about 1/4 of a mile down the road before I could pull off and examine the damage. Since it was so late and the temperature was down to 27F, I wasn't about to walk back and check on it. I flagged a couple of cars going south and one of them was a BLM person. He followed us down to Caliente, to a gas station, where I was able to fill up. And we called the Nevada Highway Patrol. The BLM guy (can't remember his name) let us in to the BLM Offices and we were able to use the facilities. Once the NHP was done writing up the incident, he took off to see if he could find the horse and make sure it wasn't in the road. We drove my badly damaged truck the rest of the way home to Cedar City. And never did hear what happen to the horse. So, if you venture to Caliente at night, from the south, watch for the wild horses.

Excellent and thorough tour of Ely, Nevada. Thanks for your effort in putting it together. Based on what I saw, I would like to visit this small town to experience it. Like and subscribed.

I have lived in Logandale for 23 years and can't imagine ever living anywhere else. So glad your experience was positive.

Still a piece of dust in the desert if Mesquite house price is close to Las Vegas why go there ? less job opportunity

Retired form the Army and Moved to Mesquite 2 months ago and absolutely LOVE it here!

3:15 . Note - the ' landing ' ...is two slabs of cement ; made TO DRAIN WATER , off ! UNLIKE todays' doofus ' engineers '.....those old guys, then, KNEW ABOUT DRAINAGE....go figger... Seems to me.....seems....that the farther one goes back in history, the MORE WE KNEW ABOUT THESE THINGS = ...like old Roman Empire....hundreds of years, of constructional marvels. Some, still in use. Won't happen today - folks. Example : millenium tower, in sinking, sagging San Fransisco...

2:40 Time. wow.....30 brothels ?.....hmm 10,000 people, probly 7,000 men. 7000 divided by 30 = 233 + guys, ....each one. / Over how much time ?....who , now, cares ?.....

Because there are no decent jobs for 50 square miles? That sounds about right for broke Upstate.

Watching from New York City. Oh what a beautiful place 😍

Looked at possibly buying property to build a home in mesquite but most of the undeveloped property was owned by large developers .

We lived there for 7 years after moving from the big city Las Vegas. I can tell you, Ely's political class is owned by two or three business dynasties there and the whole thing is so unbelievably corrupt and greedy that if it weren't for the mine and the state prison, the only thing there would be whores and politicians. Oh wait . . .

Thanks. I love the depot!

I wonder how the depot restoration is being funded. I think the restoration is a great thing for a small town and am curious who had the foresight and the funds to make it happen.

I stayed overnight at a Route 66 motel back in 1996. Wife and I took a stroll on Route 66 close to the rail station. It was very desolate back in the day.

5:20-5:40. Watch

Hi - Very nice report on this small town. Appreciate it!

I read there was a mysterious disappearance of miners in 1943. They're zoning that residential now?

The video wouldn't play. I've been there, it was great just down from Sidgraves pass, breath taking.

Living in Vegas in the mid 80's. My friends and I would go shooting all over the desert. One day we decided to go to the Arizona side to explore. We found Oatman and drove through it. There were no people at all. Just some wild Donkeys roaming around. It was literally a ghost town. We explored the area and found a mine not far from some old building structures. I'll never forget it. There was a rectangular hole 20 feet by 10 feet. It went streight down. You couldn't see the bottom. So we threw some bolders down it and you could hear them pick up speed as they fell. Never heard them his the bottom. We found some corrugated steel laying around and threw it in. As it fell. You could hear it hit the sides of the wall as it fell until the sound went away. It seemd bottomless. Every now and then. I think about the experiance. It just came up in my KZbin feed. And was pleasantly surprised to hear it's a tourist attraction.

Been to Oatman. Love the cowboy bank robbery and donkeys. Had a great lunch.

I've been to Oatman. Quaint little town. The donkeys like carrots.

I'm new to your channel I really enjoy your videos keep up the good

Nice history of the town. Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Enjoyed your video very much. My dad was born on a mine property just west of Oatman in 1917. His family moved to the town in the late twenties. I’ve been there many times, but my best memory is of a trip with my father in the early sixties. Oatman was still a real town, though small, and we visited his elementary school teacher, Miss Hand. The general store was still in operation and Dad knew the proprietors from his time living there. Thanks for your well done and informative presentation.

Very nicely done video! Watched 3 including yours but yours was the only one I watched clear through! Great narration, town video, historic facts!... Well done, thank you😊

Love your video l love seeing old places, it makes me wonder what happen or what kind of place we're in it's time❤😊 thanks for the vidios

Nice channel my fren

My wife was born there in 1949, but since Pioche didn't have a hospital she was actually born in Caliente and lived in Pioche. Have gone through there a number of times when living in Ely. Hwy 93 actually bypasses the town so you have to make an effort to go through Pioche.

I wonder if a lot of people actually know we're the meaning of dying with your boots on came from. Very good important information.

Great video and great content! Thank you!

Neat place. Lots of history and some very nice people too. Visit if you can. You will NOT be disappointed

Absolutely love the old towns of NV . Thanks for sharing.

I lived in Las Vegas for 21 years and I drove by and through Blue Diamond many times. I wanted to live there but to rich for me.

I was 5 years old living in Caliente when my Dad worked in a mine near there. I am 72 so there is the math.

I started the second grade there. I am 72 so there is the math. I have visited there many times. A very cool town.

Enjoyed your video, thanks.

my Mom and Dad got married there.

I lived in Ely, Nevada when I was a child. My brother was born there. A few years ago I visited and brought home a lilac shrub from my childhood home. It’s now planted in my North Idaho yard. Good memories.

My first College related job was in McGill at Kennecott Copper. Worked as a Lab Tech in the Assay office until I was drafted and went to Viet Nam. Returned to work as a Chemist, later. It is high country, 6437 feet downtown. Gets very cold in the winter... -20 to -40 F. Have seen in snow on the 4th of July (in1976). People where very nice, invited me for Thanksgiving and Christmas when I had no family, as a kid.

GReat plac to visit. Rich history of open pit mining. Very friendly people and good food, good comfortable accommodations and a railroad that i still running steamers. Bring a jacket.

You should mention the large open pit copper mine that is still functioning. Also the highway out to the southwest is called Americas loneliest highway.

Amtrak's Desert Wind ceased in 1997. I worked for the UP and know Caliente well. Another "neat" place and not far from here is Modena, Utah just up the line. Thanks for making this.

The hotel is awesome! Stayed a week

Been through Ely many times. Really a creepy vibe especially coming in from the west on Hwy 50 near old town (1st street) late at night. Heavy energy here, you feel the past residents watching you.
