Nice timing. I was trying to decide where to go this weekend for a boondoggle. I hadn't heard of this place before and it's a lot closer than other things I was considering. Plus who doesn't love old military vehicles??

This whole area has so much cool stuff. Bernice canyon to the east in the Arc Artic range. Steam shovel canyon to the west in the Stillwater range.

Another great video. 👍🏼 Mounting a flag up top was a good idea. The pilots like to buzz vehicles in that area.

Another awesome video Heather! I was just in Evanston Wy. If you ever venture that far East, checkout Piedmont and the Charcoal kilns. Hope to see you at the Oregon Event!

Been there a couple of times now. It used to be a fairly large farming community. Then it was severely damaged by a huge earthquake back in the late 50's/early 60's if I remember correctly? The residents sold out to the military and just moved away, leaving their homes/farms behind. Since then upwelling from the natural springs have flooded a lot of the area. All of the cool old military equipment, plus some of the original old buildings. First time I was out there, people were living in one of the old homes.. I think that the earthquake actually opened up a lot of the springs. Being out there, by yourself. Kind of creepy, very cool!!!

@@campoutwestus Interesting to research the original history of the place. After the first time I was there. "Why are there so many buildings here" Looking at Google Earth and seeing the street grids laid out. Stoked that it is open to public access.

It's 70 miles away from Fallon. After the quake, they couldn't rebuild. A rumor is the quake was caused by an underground nuclear test.. It's Nevada..

Some of those vehicles have seen better days. Cool seeing the baby birds in the nest. I don’t know if Id go in a few of those places. Too many poisonous things moving around. I’ve never actually seen a hot spring. What was that big skeleton on the ground? I think Gen would love exploring all these old abandoned places. 👍16

Just came across your videos, when you were at Shasta Trinity forest, you went to natural bridge, that was where the Indians were massacred. Just up the road on the left is a monument for the Indians. I live in Trinity. It would be better if it wasn't all burned. Rhonda
