Huge operations out there. Cool to see 1917, the year dough boys were starting over to the UK and France for more training. I think the U.S. started getting into battles in 1918 which. I do know it started in 1914. I watched too many videos over the years. Now, I like seeing where you're looking around, because I can't. Back when I hiked a lot, I hardly took pictures, let alone videos like these days. KZbin sure is awesome to get to see things I can't go see. And you know you're being part of that is irreplaceable. Be safe. You thought Dave standing on those boards too long was worrying. I think about those old ladders, whoa they're sketchy in mind. You're a veteran explorer, which is to say, the risk seems normal. Take care👍🏼

Hello Rick, sorry, sounds like you are not getting out. I don't usually film hiking, so i wasn't sure how this would go. Plus i don't have the little fuzzy filter that goes over the mic. I don't know much about 1917, but knew it was close to WW1. I wanted to keep going down, but that was probably the spookiest ladder yet. We will be going back soon and head on down on rope. I wonder if the risk is worth it sometimes, last time out a rock came down and just missed my head.

@@mineadventures7938 yeah, when I saw that spooky ladder sway I knew you would call it 👍🏼 I've been laid up from hiking for about 7 years. My knee went until I could get the replacement surgery. I'm great with that knee now, but 2021- present weight gain is way too high. I hope this summer I can make some progress 🙂

Hey Ken. Looks like there was some major activity in that area at some point. A mill that processes 100 tons per day would be a beast to feed to keep it operating. Hopefully, that sketchy ladder can be conquered with rope protection, and it will lead somewhere cool. Hi to Dave, and I hope Kenny gets better soon.

[@mineadventures7938]

Hi Tom, that is what i was thinking as well. We may go back on Saturday. Will let you know what we find. Will let them know you said hi

Poor filming techniques

[@mineadventures7938]

Ok, any suggestions, if i keep the light on too bright and up close, it washes everything out, plus the heat is insane as you know since you film. Plus it burns out the batteries fast. So i try to keep the lighting medium and then turn it up when looking at a distance. Plus when we are in the mines, think of the miners trying to conserve lighting, batteries and candles and how dark it must have been to work in the mine, so i try to keep the lights medium so you can experience what it was like to be a miner, but you already are familiar with filming and exploring mines, maybe you can let me know how you do it, thanks, Ken
