Digging And Collecting Bottles From An Old Mining Dump

[@SeventhEve]

When Chigg says, "what a dump!", it's a compliment.

[@jillmccoy5184]

Great double entendre! 😂

[@three6ohchris]

MeMiner and Aquachigger, back together again! The dynamic duo. I love it!

[@CobaltOntarioadventures]

I stole him the next day :) kzbin.info/door/mHij3pcjxb2KQJ0pAFU7Vw

[@dougalexander7204]

I bet any day hanging out with Me Miner is a great day. Gentlemen stay awesome.

[@TomFromMN]

14:33 Visitor buzzes that I was sure it was in my room! ...lol Then you mention the back pain. I can relate to that pain. We watch you dig, bend over, kneel down, and lift. Just one of the reasons I It's easy to show a little support when I can. Thanks, Beau, for all your hard work and more.

[@aquachigger]

Thank you for watching and thanks for your donation!

Nice video buddy. poor dog gonna get her pads cut up

[@DonPablo2011]

First thing I thought was about the poor old pooch cutting it's paws.

[@melissaanne7369]

ure videos are amazing and help me through the every day struggles in my life. been going g through alot and got a detector and its brought so much joy back into my life and it's all thanks to u. keep doing the amazing videos and ty so much for helping me in my dark times chigg

[@yesakadly]

Watching you guys truly is great. genuine, educated, adventurous! Makes me feel good knowing there are still ppl like you guys out there. Keep on keepin' on ⛏🔦🧲🤙😁

[@portculis1]

LOL...like a kid in a candy store Beau! Love your enthusiasm!

[@oneagentfrog]

Also, a great bottle digging tool is a 3 pronged "potato rake". Grew up digging bottles with those, great tool.

[@lisaroach3165]

Exactly what I use! I find it to be the best for bottle digging.

[@relicrecoveryspecialist16]

I use the 3-4 pronged digging tools, a Sampson shovel, regular round shovel and a medium concrete trowel.

[@lisaroach3165]

just one more bottle, just a couple more bottles LMAO, he's got the fever! I can't imagine taking my dog bottle digging with me, I would be so scared his paws would get all sliced up.

[@sergeantbigmac]

The mosquitoes wouldve driven me bonkers. I can handle a lot of things, but that always gets to me. Youre a very patient man Chigg!

[@CC58]

Bottles trees? Next thing you know Chig wiill find cannon balls growing on the vine.

[@KLD53]

Hi Chig.. I really enjoy your videos as I suspect I am a relic hunter at heart - not sure that would be on resume as a Healthcare CEO now retired... by the way , welcome to Canada .. we are just a nice country and as such not very aggressive ... I hope that we are not as bad as the garbage you find in streams etc when digging.. you have given me hours of enjoyment.. thanks so much .. I am drawn to how good you and your wife are as to ethics and morals .. its comforting to know you exist :)

[@carpdude73]

I don't know about anyone else, but every time I heard a mosquito pass the camera mic I swatted in the air!! LOL!

"Just a little bit more " and like 2 hrs later "just a little bit more "......lol

[@ExploreUnderground]

He just never stopped.. we all went back to the trucks AND HE WALKED BACK UP THERE AFTER lol Crazy! We started detecting rocks, forget that mess of bugs lol and I live in it

[@JohnDBloch]

I know I would feel the same way! Its like a honeypot!

[@kepvalley]

You definitely did not seem that enthused about being in all those bugs. Meminer had mentioned that it has been exceptionally bad this year. I'm totally not surprised that he went back. I would have done the same. Slap on the Muskol and good to go!

[@johnlawrence9957]

@@kepvalley Bad here in California as well. Never seen it like this!

[@Mag_Aoidh]

Aylmer is a town outside of what used to be Hull Quebec (present day Gattineau). My Grandfather was from Eardley/Luskville, just up the road from Aylmer.

[@kepvalley]

Just had to research that and found that the Aylmer Canning Co. was from the Aylmer in the southern Ontario 'banana belt' where a lot of tomatoes are grown.

[@steven2212]

It's nice that Jesus stopped by to keep you company. Loved Daisy.

[@americanrebel413]

I kept swatting mosquitoes away from my ears and then I realized it was my headphones making it sound like they were really here. LOL! Thanks Chigg! I appreciate your video.

[@VickieV1333]

I love how excited you are Chigg❣️ I can not believe the bug situation!

[@PeachSt8Digger]

NOW you're gettin' Chiggy with it !! You found a "pick your own bottle" farm!! My kind of place. Seriously, though, very interesting.....I would need a 55 gallon barrel, instead of a 4 quart bucket or back pack. Amazing!

[@kepvalley]

Great bottle dumps up there!Secluded far into the bush has kept them only lightly hunted. I would be just as excited to be out there digging that! Glad you had a great time up here! Between rocks and bottles, I'll bet the Chigg Rig was loaded down after being up there. Awesome video! Can't wait to see more!

[@davebrittain9216]

Way up in Cobalt. That is two hours farther north than my cottage. Quite the drive there Chigg!

[@sherrystuer2512]

Im so jealous. I want to be there too and get some bottles and other goodies. Ive never metal detected but the other stuff is right up my alley. I have family in the u.p. of Michigan and their woods are full of this stuff. They think its junk. Down here in lower Michigan, that stuff is worth a fortune!! There is even a story on the Original Stuer farm in the u.p. that there is a fortune burried on the property by a man hiding it from his wife. Lol.

[@kathygalloway2990]

I love the bottle hunting, just one more, how many more Chigg, I love it don't forget to hold your breath, thanks for sharing Bo, I enjoy all of your videos!

[@ZeroDiscrimination]

Wow! Bottles everywhere! I’ve never seen a dump with that many bottles. I would have a hard time leaving that place even if the mosquitoes 🦟 were eating me alive. lol happy Hunting & Thanks for sharing! ~ Gypsy

[@GirladyLocks]

My whole body itched while watching this. Hat's off to you all for suffering through! Nice honey spot!

[@jss302]

you are never ever prepared....gahhhhh

[@TomFromMN]

You sounded as any little kid seeing the pile of presents under the tree! Just different kinds of trees, but lots of presents! The horse shoe might be from a large work horse, like a Belgian, Clydesdale, or Percheron. Forgot to mention! Loved the adventure, too!

[@amandapittar9398]

What’s that noise? Oh yes. The sound of the helpless laughter from the ghosts of the old silver miners watching folk dig up their rubbish from 140 years ago with such delight... they are rolling about, pipes clenched in teeth, wheezing with laughter. If you listen carefully it sounds a little like mosquito noise...

[@heehaw8401]

Si-finds has recently explored a bottle dump in the UK.

[@QuestForDetails]

pretty cool seeing Daisy wander through the vid, its a small world after all, and I'm over in the south, checking out Alabama for a week, first wild gators, first wild chiggers lol !! be safe, H. H.

[@pamelawooten3251]

Snake oil came from Chinese water snakes. Cool bottles and old items!

[@dodecaheathenblue8132]

Wow!!!- love the beautiful mystical BLUE bottles...so special!!

[@hamilton6827]

The property my parents first purchased when we moved back to Nova Scotia had dozens of deer skulls hanging in the trees. Or the skulls where sitting in holes of the trees. I'll never forget walking back with my dad and feeling the oddest feeling as all these skulls where just staring at us.

[@abbysm3925]

I literally keep itchin my nose watching this because I feel itchy seeing all the bugs flying 😂

[@ExploreUnderground]

Hes got some cool stuff coming. We changed the game a little and I brought him on an adventure through the biggest mine site in Cobalt! My Video 1 is on my channel :)

[@atbhill]

Awesome! You got you a new subscriber!

[@leebrewer1190]

So many people watching this have never had the horrendous experience of being in the backwoods where mosquitoes are so plentiful you end up breathing them in. Its horrible and I applaud anyone who can stay out in them like you guys did for this video. I honestly do not understand how there is enough "food" for the sheer number of them to survive to reproduce every year like they do.

[@CobaltOntarioadventures]

No idea, but it is ridiculous. I live in it!

[@meMiner]

We should start a rumour that the bottles in the trees were carried there by the bugs. ;-)

[@highenergyog]

Not a rumor, our bugs are huge. Two mosquitoes grabbed me a week ago and tried to fly away with me, good thing I've gained weight .

[@ExploreUnderground]

No doubt. They're insane!

[@highenergyog]

@@ExploreUnderground I went into a wonderful cave I had not been in before, well at least not as far in as I went this day . It was rather a tight fit in quite a few spots but I was still able to video my little adventure. There were a few mosquitoes but there were more spiders than anything else .

[@OutdoorsygalO]

LOL!

[@ExploreUnderground]

Dont fool yourselves.. Chuck Norris would run FAST from these guys, they mean business LoL the video does not do the mosquito and black fly population justice. Not at all. Imagine that!

[@upallnyte2000]

OMG, I would not have lasted that long with that many bugs flying around!

[@bo49685]

WOW, I can’t believe the bottles were just hanging on the branches. Those were some beautiful bottles. That was amazing, but the bugs were HORRIBLE!!!!

[@geraldluque9607]

My grandfather brought home a 4 oz. Nugget. He hid it in the toe of his old work boots. One day grandma decided to clean the closet out. Yep , she threw out his boots and he didn't notice for quite awhile. To this day, he still hasn't told, @ I'm 70.

[@kgal63]

That would have me. "Just one more bottle then we can go." Love old bottles.

[@davec5153]

It'll be off a shire horse. You should make a couple of digging tools out of your antlers, for digging bottles.

[@lizzymoore54]

A tad over-whelmed perhaps, Beau? Great bottle dump! Get to digging and find you'll find treasure, for sure. 😉 Eucalyptus oil mixed with a little alcohol and water, shake each time and spray your clothes will help to keep the bugs away. You can spray it into your hands and wipe it on your face, neck and ears too. Be prepared so you can enjoy your hunt a little longer. 😊 Smells good too!

[@CobaltOntarioadventures]

Overwhelmed is coming soon! Heres the beginning of the adventure I brought him on :) I'll have much more to come. And he will as well kzbin.info/door/mHij3pcjxb2KQJ0pAFU7Vw

[@mikefinley733]

Lots of times in older open mines that have dumps or nice gold rocks I use a older gas leaf blower foggier to take care of the bugs,,,Try one, you will love them !!

[@jerrydempsey3490]

Hi Chigg.. I would suggest going back to this site in the fall after a couple of heavy frosts. The skeeters will have been killed off but the ground will still be unfrozen.

[@ipaddlemyowncanoe.7441]

Hey welcome to Canada hope you're enjoying your stay lot of stuff in Canada specially northern Ontario great to have you here. 👍👍🇨🇦

[@typicalrockhound9887]

Hahaha ! Ahh the bugs . Glad you toughed it out ! As soon as you stir up the soil .... They swarm like yellow jackets xD . September should be fine ! . anything is better than snow ;) . hides all the goodstuff

[@cathybenson5119]

You're like a kid in a candy store, Beau. Lol. 😄😄😄

[@debrabrooks6138]

Awesome finds and place! One thing I always remember..smoke! All bugs hate smoke, good to burn old leaves n such in a pot if you can find one or a can and walk around with it before you dig, it will help! ☺ I would be in bottle heaven there!

[@lizbrown7232]

Don't know if it's still available but Minard's Linament was a staple in my family's medicine cabinet in the 1960's. The camphor odour was eye-watering.

[@AndrexT]

Now you know why every drug store, in fact every shop in Canada has Deep Woods Off products. I can't bear the mosquitoes up here, they love my British blue blood. Great video as always.

[@anitablades6033]

And rubber gloves !!!

chigg isn't really a bottle guy, but when he does take a bottle, it is an awesome one

Wearing headphones and hearing the bugs drove me nuts. Sweet bottles!

[@treasurehuntingscotlandmud9340]

Some nice finds coming out enjoyed watching

[@budrohammbone2806]

Hey Beau, I've found that the "Thermacell" device seems to work well for mosquito's here in GA. Not sure for the Black Flies, etc.

[@ExploreUnderground]

I've seen ppl try them here. Not so effective lol But these videos dont even come close to doing the bug population justice, and that's saying A LOT! HAHAHA

[@texaswader]

Man I love old bottle dumps...but those bugs would have run me off a long time ago lol.

[@Vault57]

Listening with headphones. At 14:34 I wanted to shoo the fly away...😑

[@depthspader8820]

Hey Aquachigger, nice to see digging in my backyard. Live 6 months outta the year on the outskirts of Colbalt, if fact the Joey you talk about is my bottle digging partner. The bottles in the trees are an offering to the bottle gods, or at least thats what I'm told. Put a few there myself. Lol👍👍

[@Richard-bt7br]

Just watching the skeeters flying around you guys, makes me want to swat sitting here watching. I be soaked in military deet if I was working where you guys were.

[@ms.michealhodge1243]

8:49 I'm pretty sure that that massive horseshoe is for a Clydesdale! 🙂 My Grandfather used them to pull the combine when harvesting!

[@alanbstard4311]

that metal thing at about 30 minutes is a part of a potato ricer .. a kitchen utensil. It is missing a few parts, but I have a very similar vintage one like that.

[@nonames000]

I like seeing these woods.. they are so different from the woods you normally traverse.. this is what I am used to traversing myself as I live in Ontario, it seems more difficult to traverse than your woods back home

[@James-lj7rm]

A necessary item in my metal detecting pack-pack is a bottle of skeeter spray to keep the bugs away. Just a suggestion.

[@Ann_Duke]

You needed a bee keepers hat and net to keep the flies out of your eyes . Just a thought. As always enjoyed watching.

[@rightleg5920]

Throughly love the btl videos man! Thanks

Great bottles! I had shovels full of fun! And I can’t tell you how many mosquitoes I swatted while I watched. I’m using my earphones and they sounded like they were right here in my living room.

[@OutdoorsygalO]

That was quite the place. I was drooling over the smaller medicine looking bottles. I was thinking that the Alymer bottle must have been HEINTZ ketchup in the old days? Oh man, you were a hurting unit then. So sorry about your back.

[@Nova350]

That big horse shoe probably came off one of those mosquitoes buzzing around

[@barrywainwright3391]

The sauce bottles are Lea & Perrins. That is an old dump with good age to it for good potential to find some valuable bottles. But the good stuff isn't on the surface but deeper in the ground. You should have taken all the jar lids because people buy them for the old jars they find and some lids are rare and valuable. Bugs become worse once you start digging into the ground. Always carry bug spray with you that contains DEET. As always all your videos are interesting and entertaining. If you're ever in NJ let me know and I'll show you huge unbelievable dumps unlike you've never seen before. Happy hunting and stay well.
