BC Canada! Exploring The French Mine in Hedley

In this exploration we head to Hedley BC to explore the historic French Mine. There are 2 entrances, the upper and the lower. This would be our first attempt at actually entering a mine to explore and it was truly amazing! Join us as we try to find Batman!

This was the first mine I was ever in. Many many years ago.

I was able to drive past great big boulder. But that was back then.

Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. We’ve explored and documented this one on our main channel, Adventures R Us. We’ve explored pretty much everywhere inside that mine, definitely a neat one. The more you explore, the more comfortable you’ll get. Take care!

Thanks for taking the time to watch! It's definitely new for us!

Great video guys. When we went i wished we knew about the bottom section lol. The coal chutel looks so cool 😀

[@exploringdirt]

Thank you!! Was a lot of fun. I actually can't believe the size of this mine. There is a point somewhere in there where you can climb from the bottom to the top from inside a stope. We are not that brave lol! Love the drive up and then we drove over the top of the mountain over to Apex and into Penticton. Was a great weekend for sure

Not collapsed, backfilled.

Not a concentrator. Ore bin.

[@bcmineresearch]

Not a tunnel, its an adit, or drift.

Those spiders are poisonous, but they are unable to pierce human skin.

Not sure if I want to subscribe. You folks are pretty green at this. Kinda scares me.

[@exploringdirt]

Hey there. First just want to say thanks for stopping to watch. We are definitely green and not professional mine explorers! It's not really what we do just wanted to go in and see if we like doing it or not. This is the first one we've ever entered. We just like to go out and explore our beautiful BC and find neat things and talk about its history.

Spiders are poisonous, but cant pierce human skin. Shaft is vertical. Learn your terminology.
