I rope down into the War Eagle Mine in Tecopa County California to look for remote areas not entered by other mine explorers.
This is a fast paced and exciting Mine Exploration Channel. We have been in hundreds of abandoned mines in Canada, United States and Mexico. Join us underground and we will show you things no human has seen for decades! A fast paced, exciting channel that will not bore you. Visit our website exploringabandonedmines.com for directions, exciting pictures and merch.
Why do we explore mines? Two reasons
1) Documenting the mines for future generations.
2) Collecting artifacts for our museum.
Mines are being filled in, demolished, and/or collapsing at an alarming rate, so it is crucial to document them and save these artifacts while it is still possible.
This is all about mining and mining exploration. Join us for our weekly adventures as we go deep underground into historic abandoned hard rock Gold, Silver and Copper mines. We relive the Prospecting, Gold Rush days, going back in history with every expedition. Visiting abandoned and forgotten places, climbing down mine shafts into dangerous mines, finding treasures, seeing antique heavy equipment such as ore carts, crushers, milling machines, ball mills, explosives and other mining equipment.
Come visit our Exploring Abandoned Mines Museum in Grand Forks, B.C. Canada.The museum is open to the public, free of charge, donations gratefully accepted. We have a huge assortment of mining artifacts accumulated from abandoned mines, donations, and other collections. We also have operating mining equipment on display. We have recently purchased a nearby abandoned Gold mine and moving our museum there. This will enable us to take people underground to learn about mining history.
Museum is located at 5615 Kenmore Rd Grand Forks BC Canada V0H-1H4. Best to phone first 250-444-0183. Come for a visit! www.google.com...
We have a new website site exploringabandonedmines.com once there you can see how the mine is doing, support the channel and buy merch, we have stickers, hats, hoodies, t shirts and mugs. New items being added.

ALWAYS 5 STARS .... STAY SAFE !

24/09/2022 #326 End of The War Eagle! Sharon's one tough cookie 💪. There was a lot of timber in there, it looked like you were in a timber supplies yard at one point. I love the air compressor and the big heavy wooden chest, so amazing what's left behind. Frank, you sniffed out the dynamite again! That was a great explore thank you Frank. Hope Sharon's knee is making a good recovery. Love and respect to you both. ❤❤⛏👷🏻‍♀⛏❤❤

[@iainweller452]

That was a big confusing mine Frank, I think I’d be lost forever in there, hope Sharon’s knee isn’t giving her too much trouble, great episode.

[@realamerican4186]

Dang frank ! Lucky the dynamite was stable-ish ... Tons of fun .

[@beverlyhanlon8376]

Thanks for the stroll.Glad you didn't do anything to dangerous. Hi to Sharon. Hope her knee is doing better. Stay safe my friend.

[@exploringabandonedmines]

It was a video we shot last winter so the knee is all better.

[@marygarner5249]

Always look forward to your video's Best time what a adventure 😁😁💟💟👍👍👍

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Thanks so much

[@monkeywentbananas]

So You entered into the War Eagle mine and exited at the Noon day Mine!? Your a maniac Frank! I would have been so lost in that labyrinth I would have never found the way out!

[@alleyoop9099]

Join the club

[@glennwall552]

Keep right you'll be right lol

[@rolfsinkgraven]

Hopw Sharon knee is doing better, a very interesting explore again thnx its realy a big one wow.

[@exploringabandonedmines]

It sure is

[@Mn690]

Your videos are the highlight of my week! Stay safe, brother.

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Glad you like them!

[@clintonhouser9604]

Well preserved mine I do say

[@helenasmith4286]

Crazy Ladders good call

[@BerraLJ]

That mine sure is massive and the wood seems to be in very good condition.

[@jimmime]

Thanks, Frank. So, you made it through that human ant farm, that baby was HUGE! Safe journeys, and yes, I SMASHED that like button, like I do every week!

[@exploringabandonedmines]

You rock!

[@williamwintemberg]

Looks like you could have spent a couple of weeks underground to see it all. What a nice explore! Be safe Frank and thanks for bringing us along!

[@exploringabandonedmines]

We will finish up the last of it next week.

[@williamwintemberg]

@@exploringabandonedmines can't wait!

[@VegasCyclingFreak]

5:57 That is a crazy amount of cribbing in that area 😲

[@BroderickGoertzen]

I am always in awe of the quantity of large diameter timber in these mines. Aside from the efforts mining out the rock, transporting and manoeuvring every single piece of wood is a feat in itself.

[@rickdale4921]

Awsome episode, that mine was crazy 🤪 big, your a beast 💪 looking forward to your next episode!!!

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Thanks! 😁

[@Murphus420]

TY Frank. Please get feeling better Sharon we miss you💙

[@remmiemax3624]

😎😎👍👍💖💖Rock On!!

[@SueGirling68]

Hi Frank, that was one heck of a workout, that mine was pretty extensive, it had some pretty neat features including that awesome day box. Sending my love to you both and I hope Sharon's knee enjoyed the rest and we see her on the next explore. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Thanks Sharons knee is as good as new now. We shot the video last winter!

[@SueGirling68]

You strayed from the right hand rule twice that I saw. Glad you made it out.

[@AUMINER1]

Thank you Frank & Sharon ! awesome!

[@exploringabandonedmines]

You are very welcome

[@bryanwilson8130]

You listed it as Tecopa County in the description. It is actually Inyo county. Hate to be a nerd, but I live in the area...

[@toddlittles2786]

FRANK I MISS THESE TYPE OF VIDEO'S! ITS NICE TO SEE COOL MINES LIKE YOU USE TO POST LIKE FEW YEARS AGO

[@slimwantedman6694]

Good morning from Southeast South Dakota

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Morning!

[@bekleidungu.ausrustung7068]

Nice one Frank!! Enjoyed it. Kinda reminds me a little of the bigger mines in Canada

[@exploringabandonedmines]

It does!

[@hunnybunnysheavymetalmusic6542]

The technical term for that lifting device for batteries is a gantry crane. Some even just call it a gantry.

[@petewebster2977]

Wow Frank , so much to see . Always keen for more. Pete Australia 🇦🇺

[@johnweeks5614]

That mine kinda made me remember that one you was in and it just kept going down and down and don't think you ever got to the bottom of it

[@Bushguyrocks]

The Mega Monster mine! Lol. Yup, that was a big 'un. Rumor has it, that if you keep going down far enough in that mine, you come out somewhere in China.???

[@johnweeks5614]

@@Bushguyrocks I wouldn't doubt it lol kinda does make you wonder what is at the bottom or if you can even get to the very bottom

[@jamesthompson8008]

That was pretty good Frank! Lots n lots of walking, but my God how extensive the workings are. Surprising how far that shaft went. Very cool video!

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Thanks 👍

[@volktales7005]

A very interesting mine! Thanks for the explore. Hope Sharon wasn't too bored waiting for you...

[@Bushguyrocks]

Smash the "like" button, folks!

[@frederickmoller]

I always Do. To me it's having good manners.

[@jimbobf8017]

That's a lot of mine! Thanks Frank for showing us. You really got your workout in on this one 👍

[@milwaukeeroadjim9253]

Hope that Sharon is getting better. Knees can take a while to heal. Wow, that was an extreme walk.

[@timeversman9804]

Dang the history in there.

[@davegrummett1263]

Thanks Frank. Awesome mine. In that heavily timbered skinny area it looked like there were tonnes of square set timbers that were reused. I wonder if there was a massive stope that the addit just passed by the corner of which collapsed and they shored up just along the edge to keep man access.

[@Mountainmonths]

I would be scared to climb those ladders!

[@larryschenk696]

Holy Shit. That Was Awesome.

[@ArtCrouse]

Thank you Frank and Sharon for all the work you put into these explores. This one looked like it was seriously complicated with the numerous drifts seemingly heading in all directions. As you noted it would take a guy quite a few days underground to see it all. Again thanks for sharing with us it is really appreciated. Stay safe!👍

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Our pleasure!

[@GlenCannon239]

All that timber stacked up looked like a video that Gly did about a collapse on 2 miners and they went in and tried to rescue the men. Maybe Gly can shine some light on it.

[@m.j.morshead]

Nice explore,my right ear loved it.👌

[@HollywoodGraham]

Very extensive, thanks.

[@exploringabandonedmines]

You bet!

[@tyronedanielsen1650]

Awsome video as always, 👌

[@monkeywentbananas]

Wow awesome stopes in that Mine!

[@misterp158]

Good Stuff, thanks for sharing

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Thanks for watching!

[@rosanatedescofavarim3240]

Scary 🥺

[@glennjudd2467]

Great video !❤

[@exploringabandonedmines]

You are so kind

[@jamiewolfzen]

Love your work. It shouldn't be hard to route that right-only audio to a stereo channel and re-export the file?

[@exploringabandonedmines]

It is beyond my limited skills. Next week will be last show with the issue.

[@kaden1989]

great video as always with you frank but the big question nothing against gly he is a great guy and does great videos but he is very cautious in comparison to you and that's why I love your videos but I'm sure you've seen his latest thunder ridge videos and as I watch them I say to myself if only frank was there so will we see you there im sure you've seen it and how amazing it is all the areas you'll go along with the silver expanse shaft we need you frank in that mine

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Good point

[@glennwall552]

Over the years I've noticed more and more spray.can marking from geo inspectors etc...even in extremely remote mountain top mines . More st be hard to find clean mines were no one's been for.decades. Still loving it Frank.🥰🙄🎥😁❤️👍🇭🇲🦘😳

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Great point

[@helenasmith4286]

Big game of jenga

[@BrainsofFrank]

Dang that's a huge mine complex. When do you think you might be returning to explore more if it

[@exploringabandonedmines]

Next week!

[@markbottcher9623]

I cat believe how much wood is in there, if you could take it all out, it might be worth more than the gold was, when they mined it. Lol

[@chucklavoie674]

I'm fairly new to your excellent channel. Did you ever do any exploring in the Cripple Creek Co. mining area?

[@exploringabandonedmines]

I have not.
