Exploring a 1908 Abandoned Silver Mine - Explosives Found

The Abandoned Silver Dollar Mine - Western Cascade Mountains of Washington State
Exploration to a 1908 era abandoned Silver Mine in Washington State. Great artifacts, carbon lamp graffiti, and a few unexpected surprises. This mine once had a 1,100 foot long aerial tramway of which very little remains today.
THE MAJORITY OF THE MINE NAMES ARE CHANGED OR ALTERED IN OUR VIDEOS TO PROTECT HISTORIC ARTIFACTS AND PREVENT THE SITE FROM BECOMING A NUISANCE SITE. IN SOME CASES WE HAVE BEEN GRANTED PRIVATE PROPERTY PERMISSION AND WE HAVE BEEN ASKED NOT TO DISCLOSE LOCATIONS.
Many ghost towns, mines and other forgotten historic sites in Washington State have already disappeared from history and many more are being lost each year to the ravages of time, wildfire, vandalism, and intentional closure. In addition to our many years of photographic documentation of these important historic sites we are now attempting to video document as many sites as we can so there is a lasting record of these places for future generations.
We hope you enjoy what we do and will join us on our adventures through a bygone era of Washingtons rich and colorful history. Not only do we love the history we explore and document, but we truly enjoy sharing these sites and experiences with our followers and viewers.
We appreciate you and thank you for Watching!!

I like how you describe parts and how it worked together and inside what they were following and the minerals explained. Nobody else takes the time to teach. Great job.

Wish I could actually go on a mine adventure and feel the thrill of the hunt.(Silver, Gold) But of course I can only adventure through watching your videos. I’m new to your channel and enjoyed seeing those beautiful colors. Now this is my kind of entertainment.
