DAY 2: I Discovered Terrifying Beauty on Google Earth

[@jenniferwatt5209]

The communal area with all the grinding stones in place is a treasure.. glad you photographed it!!

[@MagicalMonkeyMan]

To think there were likely so many more historical sites like that amongst these mountains, with irreplaceable insight into our ancestors' lives, lost forever to the industrial mining :(

[@DennisCaffey]

Perfect choice. No music during your videos...just the natural sounds of the place... magical!

[@victororo462]

I totally agree!

[@chrisackerley1842]

The copper mine at Morenci is the largest mine in Arizona, and one of the largest in the world. All of the companies operating mines in Arizona own large tracts of land around the mines. The laws and regulations governing water use are such that they buy up land with water on it in order to secure the right to pump ground water for use by the mine. The mine has no use for the canyon other than for its water rights but, ironically, the fact the mine owns the canyon is likely the reason it has not been developed. Go figure. What makes me angry is the way people leave trash in a place like that. I have camped in the Arizona desert for 50 years now and I am proud to say I have never left trash behind. At the same time, I don't often pick up trash when I see it. The way you hauled that trash out is inspiring. Good on you, young man!

[@andreacalkins5189]

It was cool until the end of the video seeing all the strip mining going on. That made me sick, and I envision that place the hiker visited will end up like what the mining operation today. They'll just move on to the next plot of land. Kinda like what they do with logging. However, society benefits one way or another from the mining. We can't manufacture land.. Thank you for picking up the garbage.

That's an oven, probably used to make charcoal or cook large pieces of meat. That's why there is so much soot. Miners took over after the Indigenous People. Definitely a nice place to live.

Magnificent find, compliments of Mother Nature and ages long gone. Breathtaking beauty. Saddened only by the hand of the mining and the ongoing search by mankind for more power and more wealth. I feel so fortunate to have seen this because you took the time to video. So thankful you didn't know about it being private property. I enjoy watching you have such bonding experiences with your dog. A really sweet, obedient and faithful friend. ❤😊

Just remember, though, that mine only exists because you demand it. It's product is what enables you to watch this video, cool and heat your home, let you travel to anywhere you want, light up your house at night, etc. If you don't want mines to exist, quit consuming what they produce. I'm not trying to criticize you, just making a point.

[@michaelwells6075]

When your camera first showed that red, curling tail at 10:35 - my mind went 'wtf!? I didn't know there were monkey's in the Southwest!' I honestly had never heard of a "coatimundi" aka "coati" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coati - I swear, ya learn something new every day!* Once again, Nolan has created an amazing work of art, rekindling our sense of awe. An up-close as if you were there along with him record of his fascination and wonder for a rarely seen canyon in the vast Southwest. In Part 1 he (more-or-less) happily endures mosquito swarms to record the sight of 10s of thousands of bats doing what they have been doing nightly for 100s of thousands, if not millions of years: Swarming out of a cave to devour a percentage of the swarms of bugs that would otherwise have long ago devoured all of us! Now here, in Part 2, he treks into a world with no name. His drone flies around and over geological formations that are awesome, strange, yet somehow familiar. As if we know such places from within the depths of our dreams-here real and made of stone. He also discovers remnants of habitation, some relatively recent, others dating back to an archaic culture that managed to live amidst these natural wonders for who knows how long without spoiling it-reminding us we should do the same. I agree, but can we without feeling the reverence they had for a world they knew was that of the spirits of their ancestors going so far back as to be the beginning of time, as is said, immemorial? That is, to the edge of our species' memory? Thanks so much for this, Nolan, excellent work and a tremendous gift to us all! Now that UnchardedX has revealed literally granite-hard and undeniable evidence for a highly advanced technological civilization-one capable of producing granite vessels with such complex geometries and precise symmetries with tolerances so fine (within 1/1000 of an inch) that our civilization has only within my lifetime developed the means to even measure, let alone explicate-a civilization that (apparently) pre-dates what we call "history," that the ancient Egyptians regarded as 'the time of the gods,' and about which we know absolutely nothing-we're having to ask not only "who were these people?" but, indeed, "who are we?!" (Cf: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXLcgoSIg9SEl6c and kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqPLd6GXnpeHfdU to start) How is it possible that we had forgotten them? And what does it mean that we're now remembering through discovering this previously missing piece of the puzzle we thought we'd already assembled? Wonders never cease, my friends, so long as you continue to wonder. *(If you're like me, by the time you get to be my age, you'll know so much you can no longer remember, you'll realize just how stupid you really are. But that's ok. In my lifetime I've read more books on everything from art history to quantum mechanics, archeology to zoology-all totaled more books than everyone in my genealogy all the way back to Adam-yet, I'm happy to say, I remain the awe-struck fascinated child I've always been and endeavored always to remain.)

[@bbfoto7248]

@michaelwells6075 I really appreciate Nolan's adventures and explorations as well. They are fantastic documents of our planet and of its inhabitant's past. But instead of watching Ben's sensationalized and wildly unsubstantiated claims in Uncharted X (he only ''seems'' to substantiate his claims and theories), you might want to try the ''History for GRANITE''' channel. He has a video dedicated to the granite vessels, as well as many unique specifics about the history and design and construction of the pyramids and other sites in Egypt. Also take a gander at geologist Myron Cook's channel to explain some of the geology and geologic processes that you might see in places that Nolan explores. And ''Andy Ward's Ancient Pottery'' takes you back in time describing the great variety of native American tribes and peoples and their traditions and culture based on the fascinating variety and specific design and techniques used in their pottery. ;)

[@wadeolsson856]

I love and greatly appreciate your respect while exploring those culturally significant sites! Awesome video, I too spend the nights scrolling around google earth searching for canyons.

Starting at 8:00... The striking difference in the color of the sedimentary layer is mind boggling and beautiful all at once.. What happened?? What went on in the ancient past of this beautiful tiny gift of a grain of sand in this universe that caused such a striking color difference in the sediment layer.. Just cannot help try to wrap my mind around the amount of time it must have taken and the unfathomable extrwme changes that have happened, and it happened relatively fast for there to be such a contrast in color.. I wish i knew.. Love this channel.. I am 50 now and have leukemia. Thank you soooo much for gifting me the joy of experiencing vicariously through your youth and your want to record and share the experiences you have.. Means more than you could ever know.. And you dont cloud it with unnecessary music or narration. Just the sound of the birds, water, and wind are what compliments these videos perfectly.. Again Thank you!!!

First beehive structure is probably a charcoal making kiln. The cabin has primitive cement/mortar which may also have been produced on site using the nearby kiln.

[@bbfoto7248]

Check out the 4 massive beehive Charcoal Kilns in remote Cave Valley, NV near what was once Parker (Stagecoach) Station and the Riordan Ranch. Ely, NV is the closest town. Each of the 4 rock beehive kilns were large enough to fit a mule team. My father spent his summers as a teen cowboy working on the Riordan Ranch cattle ranch (Dan & Elda Riordan) in Cave Valley in the early 1940's. Elda's was my father's great aunt. Parker Station was formerly an important stop on the Toano-Pioche Stagecoach Line (transporting and delivering mail, goods & supplies) before the advent of the railroad and automobile. My father lived in the lower "lean-to" side addition of the Parker Station log building which became the main Riordan Ranch house when Dan & Elda Riordon purchased the ranch and buildings in 1917. On the upper floor and loft of the log building, there were multiple small 8" square holes cut into the perimeter walls around the building to ward off Indian or bandit attacks with rifles such as the lever-action Winchester Model 30-30. There was/is a natural spring nearby the ranch house with a windmill pump, and to this day wild horses, pigs, coyotes, water foul, and escaped cattle use it as a watering hole. There were many Native American artifacts found in the Indian caves in the foothills across the valley. Most are in Native American museums in NV. Cave Valley was so remote and vast that the valley was at one time being considered in the 1980's by the U.S. government as the site for the new at the time LGM-118 Peacekeeper/MX ICBM missile defense system, but luckily other sites were chosen. As a child, I spent a very spooky night camping inside one of these massive rock beehive charcoal kilns when my family visited the site. It was a natural horn-shaped echo-chamber, and the sound of the bats and birds fluttering about above us in complete darkness was nerve-racking, in addition to the potential for rattlesnakes. Needless to say, I wasn't able to sleep until exhaustion took over, and it's a night I'll never forget, LOL.

Your channel is definitely my favourite of the group of people who are doing what you do,it could be your awesome dog,but,your vibe is really great to just live vicariously through. In Oman,after the rain for a few weeks,sometimes a month,it would be a green as it was on thus trip. And though rare there was a type of hawk moth,that was active during daylight hours, which looked exactly like a hummingbird. I know I'm just superimposing my old memories, but,the terrain is remarkably similar, as is the chance of finding pictogram or glyphs as well as evidence of people who were there for the last 6-8,000 + years. This I know firca fact,because my parents lived there fir 30 years & my mother would take use on digs. Particularly along waddi walls,like your canyons and when you reached the sea,that was where you'd find the burial sights,the skeletons curled into a foetal position,nearly always with evidence of red ochre, skell necklaces & tools. To set up camp & watch bats set off fir their night time hunting makes it feel like where you were & I was were only separated by a couple of bluffs,not,oceans & continents. Wishing you&yours the very best,safe journeys until,next time.

Powerful video. I’ve watched mining across the west since the 1960’s. Entire mountains destroyed. The mining companies don’t give at flying shit. It’s all about money. Keep up the good work. There are millions of us who love the Earth.

@TheAlex8675309 There might be millions of you who love the earth, but you don't love the one who created it. If you did, the world would not be in the shape it is in. Individually, it's not your fault; you have been blinded and deceived by those who came before you.

[@TheAlex8675309]

What’s your point? If you’re talking about your personal concept of god!, You’re talking to the wrong guy. I am talking about mining companies who don’t care about the planet or their employees. It’s all about money for them. As for creation, I have been gifted with direct experience of universal being, this is just not about that.🤠@@JimofTheLionKings

Thanks. We need more people like you. Lots to be optimistic about, and I think the young people will not repeat the mistakes of those before

[@peggybaxter8480]

Absolutely beautiful! Thank You for sharing your adventures!

[@Celtokee]

Thanks for taking me along. Gorgeous! Yeah, a lot of copper salt showing in one of those cliff faces you did a fly-by of.

[@technical5880]

[@lisarussell1010]

[@Buzzygirl63]

Love the southwest. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures.

[@samantha-lee7294]

I just love your adventures. Thanks for the video. 🤩

[@johnhart125]

That canyon was a piece of paradise! Would live there if I could. Like you, I hope it remains pristine

[@thrumizeeyez4827]

Wow such an incredible video thanks! So much beauty and knowledge packed in to less than 30mins. It was awesome!

[@bijenkoningin_]

sigh… so disheartening to see the loss of open mining, (still active). I could feel you heart sinking at the thoughts to where you had been…imagining that area becoming the views you drive out of….sigh smh From seeing the table rock, with quite a number mortar holes, their grinding stones still there. Then the band of white rock (almost looked like marble in on section to me.). All the animals you sighted (beyond cows😊), …songs of birds in the background. Such beautiful lushness near the streams and rivers. Truly magical. (i’m such an outdoor plant. as one said well, “I am an adventurous soul in a debilitated body”.) Enjoyed the journey. 💯👊

[@tonyakahler3575]

This is your best one so far. The story underlying the beauty is just gut-wrenching. Well done.

[@K22channel]

Yes! Those stone still in the grounder!! Amazing...they left and never back

[@kathietee291]

This video took me through all the feels…wonder at the awesome, raw natural place with its wildlife, sentimental tears at the alcove revealing it’s remnants of a time long ago, anger at the trash left behind by irresponsible humans, and then…sadness at the devastation of this beautiful country. I also love your dog, who feels the need to always lead the way, looking back to make sure you are following. And to his credit and yours, he appears very obedient! Great work! You are very creative.

I apreciate this video a lot, I always loved the midwest rural areas of the United States since it remembers me a lot of our rural spaces here in Spain. The discoveries you made are awesome and I'm amazed that after so many decades many structures and tools made by the original native americans of the area still are intact. I'm deeply grateful for this great video you made and the great respect you have towards nature. I would love to know where this is situated since I'm pretty curious about this area and I love to scout pretty remote areas like this one through Google Earth because I find it so beautiful, but also such a shame all the area is owned by a mining company unfortunatly. Cheers mate, big respect towards you and your dog.

[@WeFi62]

Danke für die Wunderschönen Eindrücke aus deinem Land, mach weiter so und bleibt beide Gesund und habt auch weiter so viel Spass.

[@gecsus]

You and your dog. What a great friendship for exploring.

[@TheShornak]

I just love your dog that goes out with you. What a great hiking buddy and companion. I like how he or she gets ahead of you then stops turns around to see where you are. That overhead view at the end showing the distruction of the terrain there is very said and disheartening.

[@tedium37]

Fantastic!! Highest marks. The combo of you, the well behaved dog, the drone and this location, is a complete escape adventure. No notes. Thanks for sharing. Liked and subbed.

[@chrisk7626]

I like how you get out there and you get as close to it as possible or in it to take a look. That's the whole point of the channel right. Wouldn't you feel it would be a drip if you were watching one of these videos and I told you we're going out to see this and only showed you Drone footage. At that rate they could have just gave you Google Earth coordinates and you could have looked it up yourself and then what's the point right. Reason I mentioned this is I keep watching the track planner and he keeps doing that to me and he doesn't see the error of his ways it's lame we want to see it in person as close as possible filmed right. I understand if you can't go in it but mention that to begin with so I can watch your channel for instance🎉

[@bobbiesmith9861]

Thank you this was magnificent. I was in awe of the beautiful places you shared. So glad you picked up other people’s litter too. I really hope the beautiful area we just saw is preserved for future generations to enjoy and not mined out of existence.
