Jeep Overland Adventure - Toxic Waste Dump | Military Relics | Arrowheads - Secrets of the Desert!!!

[@joedicello7001]

Casey is about the best channel out there for adventure in Overland camping and history. Honestly he is better then most if not ALL mainstream produced cable shows. Just a genuine guy, not overly produced, showing his love of adventure and the outdoors. I look forward to each episode of his.

[@tecra24]

You should make a series “overland cooking” great video and best wishes from Sweden

Thank you my friend! Great to hear from a fellow all the way from Sweden! Always loved the look of your mountains over there. Cheers my friend!

Greetings from Astoria. When I first heard you say 'Toxic Waste Dump', I thought you were talking about Salem, LOL!

[@CoyoteWorks01]

Ha! Lol. Now that’s funny!

[@bruceforster3709]

@@CoyoteWorks01 I DO like to make people laugh. Seriously, I absolutely LOVE your channel! I was born & raised in Oregon, and you have taught me more about this State than I ever learned in school!

[@deanfirnatine7814]

Yep one of the two biggest toxic waste dumps in the state, only thing positive about Salem is it is the smaller of the two big toxic waste dumps in the state

One of your best videos yet. I truly enjoy that your videos have substance, and aren't just some bros out trying to gain influencer status.

[@kerryjacobson5465]

Just think about all that chemical waste, seeping into the aquifer! No wonder we have so many diseases, like cancer, etc.! Great video, though! Some day, I'll get out and camp in the middle of nowhere. I found 50 cal rounds, out by Wendover, Utah, where they did WWII training. That's where the Enola Gay was, before it left for Japan.

[@kathyarmstrong649]

We go to Speedweek every year and the kids get bored and cycle over to the West edge of the salt flats and come back with crusty .50 cal casings and bullets.

Really enjoyed this video. Interesting history and amazing what you can find in the desert! Ive spent quite a bit of time in the California deserts where General Patton and others use to train. Not just the tourist sites but really our in the middle of nowhere. Found old ammo boxes with ammo, rations in the old cans. In addition, many beautiful minerals, i.e., Amythest, rose quarts etc. Thanks for sharing these adventures.

The antenna you found was a repeater antenna. Basically it’s purpose was reporting weather, and being able to repeat voice message over long distances for commanders.

Wow, sweet find! So many relics!!! Nice roof top tent too! On a night where I don't want to cook, I'll use the pocket stove and a single serve bear creek, chicken noodle soup (freeze dried) and a can of chicken.

[@rednexicanhendrix3903]

I wonder if they ever used the old homestead shacks as targets...amazing all the artifacts, so much history.

[@CoyoteWorks01]

I’ve heard they did. I’ve also found a few of the stone ones that have large caliber bullet holes in them. I believe that’s what actually leveled a good number of the old abandoned homesteads out there.

[@williskelly3486]

Good show my friend

[@markrieb9023]

As a kid we used to go search around the Horse Ridge area east of Bend and find .50 cal brass and bullets. One friend even found a dummy landmine. Used to be some kind of Army tank training area

[@CoyoteWorks01]

Yeah I’ve read about some of the military exercises they did in that area. I think some of them were during that 1942 ish time if I remember correctly. There was a pretty decent airbase in Redmond. Cheers!

My Dad grew up in Burns and worked some of the Ranches in the area in the 1950s and remembered the barns and bunkhouses having short chunks of .50 cal still linked hanging around that the buckaroo's found. Bomber gunners would apparently kick it out after practice runs over the desert.

[@CoyoteWorks01]

Yeah it’s a pretty interesting little chapter in our history around here after most of that country was abandoned by the homesteaders and widely used as a military training area. Crazy almost 100 years later you can still find that stuff lying out there. Cheers!

Coyote Works lives out my childhood fear of being alone in the dark out in the wild with potential fierce creatures prowling about looking for a kill. It’s irrational I know, but I was afraid of the dark inside my house with the doors locked. I am reminded of Pat McManus’ (Outdoor Life Magazine) hilarious outdoor stories of camping in the woods.

[@CoyoteWorks01]

Oh man I grew up reading those Patrick McManus stories. I think they were in Outdoor Life magazine or some similar magazine. Cheers!

I agree. It’s crazy the things I find in places where many people have walked right over or past them. I found an arrowhead once on the shoulder of a trail in a state park that probably 50-100 people a day walk down. Cheers!

[@blackpearlvoyager4174]

That 30 ft length of pipe was obviously a mast of some sort. It looked like it might have been used to mount several antennas probably in the VHF range of frequencies unless there was a second one somewhere else with a wire running between them. A lot would depend on the type of material that the mast was made of, if it were fiberglass probably just a mast if it's aluminum or steel it could have been an antenna all by itself. Probably just a mast you'll have to take me out there to verify that 😆😆

[@CoyoteWorks01]

Deal! I’ll take you out there and show it to you some time!

[@JayDee25895]

I bet that tent rocks and rolls in the wind. I eat out of the warm pan helps keep stuff hot and less cleanup time.

[@CoyoteWorks01]

It’s not too bad but it does move a bit. That’s a good tip on the pan. I do that quite often. Just saves mess and does help keep the food hot a bit longer. Cheers!

[@oldmillrd8153]

Thanks again for a great video. You're the most interesting person on the Tube with the knowledge and history you bring. As for the large poll it is probably an HF (high frequency) antenna used a a lot by the military. I was stationed in central Turkey during the early '70's maintaining a communication site that had HF, microwave and satellite. This looks just like the antennas we had for the HF transmitters. The HF was used primarily for medium range communication especially with the Turkish army.

[@OregonMike]

Still no luck on finding the missle silo, better luck next time.

[@CoyoteWorks01]

There has to be one there right!? I’m going to find it eventually!

[@bryanh_yjg]

I've chopped at least a mile of sagebrush probably not more than 20 miles from that flat because we got caught out there in the rain...no fun at all.🤣 When we would find the bullets we could follow them in a line and usually pick up quite a few in a row.

[@alanbellkey4592]

Kind of funny if you think about it on that waste site I think it probably would’ve been better to leave the barrels above ground and let nature take care of it but instead they buried them ran them over probably broke the majority of them to have that place saturated all at once instead of a slow casual leak and I’m sure it was agent orange I’ve been told that it smells like 24D because round up doesn’t really have much of a smell Anyways another awesome video you do what intrigues me the most I love the desert!

[@Rusted_Link]

Okay Okay I'll subscribe just stop calling me with these car warranty claims. LOL great stuff buddy! Keep it up!

[@evilcam]

History: There's a toxic waste dump in the high desert. Most People: I would not go within 100 miles of it. Casey: Imma go kick the barrels. That's why you're the man, Casey. You have the balls to explore, and nothing really scares you away when you have your mind set on doing so. Also, I spose it makes sense that the AO-defoliant would smell like Round-Up/paraquat. They're chemically related and do something very, very similar. It seems crazy to me though that they thought just putting the barrels out on the ground, was a good idea. Likewise that burying them a few feet deep, was a god idea. If they did not bury them deeper because they did not want the stuff to leak into the ground water...then what do they think is gonna happen when the chemical leaks out in the more shallow trenches? Well, what's done is done so I spose that is really all one can say about it. I did think it was kinda interesting that despite the ground being quite literally full of defoliant, that the sage and other dry desert plants seem to be mostly unaffected, and are growing just fine.

[@problu9586]

Disheartening to see how "out of sight, out of mind" was considered an acceptable hazmat disposal process.

[@CoyoteWorks01]

Ha! Yeah usually my desire to explore outweighs whatever fear I might have around some of that stuff. Not sure if that’s all that smart but…. Lol. Yeah it’s absolutely mind boggling how they handled toxic chemicals back in those days. And it’s like you said… just crazy they just doubled down on one bad decision with another. Whole different time back then. Cheers!

[@rednexicanhendrix3903]

I heard land is cheap over there by wagontire....

[@marksuperfly8426]

It can't be all that hazardous anymore, or they'd be maintaining the signage. Letting the signs fade into illegibility would be a MAJOR liability if there was any real danger.

[@clarenpurser2749]

I will be the first to admit I LOVE your videos and have watched them all but I’m wondering how all these awesome artifacts you find are still on top of the soil some of them being 100 years old? It must be different in that part of the country bc here in Virginia they would long be buried under soil, leaves, and other composting vegetation. It would be awesome to see some of these things in person though.

[@peterkunka2694]

Hey Casey! Another great trip to remote areas with very interesting finds and history. My antenna guesses... The taller 25' pole looked like it had a VHF (vertical) antenna (probably for local/aircraft communications) and a HF (horizontal) antenna (probably for listening to Japan). The smaller poles that had mesh on them looked like "portable" antenna's that could be moved throughout the area for more HF listening during exercises. Sad to see and hear about the toxic waste dump history. That was so long ago and glad we've come a long way (hopefully!) since then. What's this "land aquisition" you mentioned?! Interesting and can't wait to hear more about it. Cheers, and take care, my friend! Pete - KI7LIL

If you can get the "core" of an armor piercing 50 Cal. round, they make an outstanding center punch. I worked close to Pattons training area,where they trained before going to North Africa, and found many of them. Non armor piercing cores just flatten the tip when you hit it on metal.
