Hey Brent! My son and I were the first Father/Son team to hike up to Cero Gordo in August of 2021, you saw us when you were riding down on your dirtbike and asked us if we were OK and what we were doing...we said we were hiking to Cero Gordo. You met us at the top after you ran your errands and invited us to stay for lunch after taking a tour around the town. We WILL be back. Just hope you didn't forget about this and even discussed having a future run or race like you have finally done. You definitely told us we were the first Father/Son team to accomplish this and that you had done it but would never do it again. See u soon!

I walk and I tried running before my plantar fasciitis really beat me down. I found that runners along the way were more friendly and encouraging. I was out running around a nearby lake one day, and I was super slow. It really was ridiculous, but I was going for my first 2 miles. Along the way, a guy sprinted onto the trail, and he legit lapped me twice. His third time coming around, he could see I was still trying but really struggling. He threw his arms up in the air and cheered me on. Seeing him in my head still makes me smile. :)

What a great thing! Been with you since the very beginning. I remember stumbling on "I bought an abandoned ghost town" maybe 1 or 2 days after it was posted. I teared up when the AH burned I was filled with hope when Dave Sparks and the Diesel Bros came and helped you with the cement. I worried that you might lose to the big corporate miners. Then the road washed out. You fixed it. You had to take some time away. NOW, it's starting to get to the point where you can enjoy as we say in the music biz "the blues from the dues that you've been paying." Congrats, Brent. You absolutely deserve it. I'm up in Washington State and I definitely hope to get down there one of these days. Maybe I'll bring a couple folks and have some musical goodness. Your face says it all. Enjoy man.

I remember from Cody's Lab that you have to be a bit careful. Apparently extraction and refining can end up being considered commercial, then the mine needs all the permits and paperwork for a full blown mining operation. I don't know if there'd be work-arounds by using existing loose ore, but it would be sad if bureaucracy jumps in and shuts it down.

@@Its_Captain_Jack_Sparrow I'm sure Brent knows the details way better than I do. But California, and the 'Land of the Free' only applies when someone doesn't want to sell you a permit and regulate you. I don't know if Cody's mine had different regulation, like being in Utah, or maybe on public land, but it sounded like a lot of potential expense and paperwork. Which is a shame really, because it would be neat to be able to buy or make stuff with real Cerro Gordo silver and minerals.

The first video I watched on your channel was literally your first video, ever since then I seriously got so excited because I have always dreamed of restoring an entire little village and this is literally one of my dreams. I have watched pretty much all of your videos. You’re such an EXCELLENT talker/explanatory person and I love that because you get so much more information about Cerro Gordo that past that is now quickly becoming the present again. And with you rebuilding Cerro Gordo I can only imagine what a historical site this will become. I finished watching this video and when I got to the end it made me want to go do this Fun Run, but I’m in Australia. So I am gonna try and save as much money as I need to be able to fly over there an have an amazing time over in California and Cerro Gordo in particular. I can speak for everyone here when I say we all love ya man, you’re doing the best of jobs with it

So freaking cool! I think the amount of people that showed up is perfect for the first year of the event. It was a manageable amount of people and it made it easier to get your feet wet for what will come in the future. Congrats to everyone who participated, you all did an amazing job!
