Abandoned & Forgotten Places
Documenting abandoned mines like never before!
Let's take abandoned mine exploring to the next level!
With your support you can help make this the best abandoned mine exploring channel on KZbin!
Shot entirely in 4K! ...so, turn up those video settings!
On this channel we go deep... REALLY DEEP into abandoned mines and tunnels all throughout the western United States. We researched some of the harder to find mines and hiked or 4x4 back into them to explore and reveal their hidden secrets. Many of these remote locations are filled with cool artifacts, antiques and unique geology that will have you guessing as to why the old prospectors worked so hard to find gold, silver, and other minerals.
A&FP moves just a bit slower as compared to other mine exploring channels. Gly discusses why the miners chose these sites and he points out the geology and minerals that got them excited. Veins of quartz filled with gold and silver made many men lose sleep in the 1800’s and early 1900’s and modern prospecting still does to this very day.
DANGERS? Oh yes, there’s allot of dangers associated with old mines. Un-exploded dynamite, blasting caps, bad air, bats, spiders, and snakes all find their home in abandoned mine shafts and tunnels. Oh, and let’s not forget rotting timbers, flooded passages and collapsing rock!
Gly takes abandoned mine exploring seriously with all the proper safety equipment, training, and experience necessary to do this activity as safe as possible but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a bit of fun along the way. “Gly”, your host and his band of crazy characters “Old Bob” (Gly’s Jeep), “Quackers” (Gly’s duck) and “Bobbie” (Gly’s hula girl) are sure to brighten your day with their comments and silly antics. Heck, they may even give you a chuckle or two.
Just like Saturday morning cartoons before the internet was invented, Abandoned and Forgotten Places uploads each Saturday at 7:00AM PST. (that’s 10:00AM for you eastern folks) so don’t forget to click that subscribe button and bell icon to receive notifications of new episodes!
Please LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT! All these things help grow our channel and your financial support helps us find new locations and helps put fuel into “Old Bobs” tank. Old Bob, thanks you!
Ok, now for the ugly stuff...

That was a Coca-Cola syrup jug for soda fountains they made them in gallons just add carbonated water they probably found the empty jugs behind old General stores and reuse them

Thank you for discussing the minerals.

[@nilslin]

It amazes me all the time how much history is carved into those mines and artifacts. A well equipped and organised museum can't compete with this stuff.

Assuming this is still in the Goldfield area of Nevada. We were there a week ago Friday. Sadly, the town is slow in recovering from 2020. Only found 3 people to talk with and a majority of the town was closed. BUT, was given a cool shirt from the Dinky Dinner. ;)

Love that you've brought your amazing intro back - I've missed it!! It's great to see & hear more of Randy. He comes across as shy and quiet, which I can relate, so it's nice to see him seeming to really enjoy the mine explore. Of course Mr M is missed, but hopefully he's enjoying his weekend with his missus and he'll be back soon :D Thank you for another great mine explore. I can't wait for next weekend's episode. The sneak peek at the end is tantalising. Happy 4th!!

The coca cola glass jug is real, it was Syrup for the Soda Fountain. I remember them from the early 70s.

[@raysmith6973]

You are correct!

[@RLZerr]

From Randy: This one was a fake Coke jug. I scraped more of the greasy dust off, it was apple cider vinegar and they stuck a Coke label on it. For what reason we do not know. Maybe like hanging out in a bar and peeling the labels off the bottles of Bud

[@doskraut]

@@RLZerr Well, maybe someone playing a joke. Be careful in them mines as Gly did something with Mr M ;)

[@Michael-to7oz]

That Coca Cola bottle/ jug is the real thing from the 60s or maybe earlier. So many times I drove through Gold field and Tonopah when I use to haul Lime from Vegas to the round mountain gold mine for the processing plant, always wanted to be able to stop and explore the area. Fascinating area with such geology. If you love exploring mines Nevada is the place to be for sure.

Worked in big movie theater in late 60's, concessions stand used the coke syrup in drink machines and added carbonation with big CO2 bottles.

That label on that jug was original. It was a 1 gallon bottle of syrup they sold in the 60's. That was probably actually the original contents. Sweet find.

The outdoor drone topography shot reminds me of the 1990 film “Tremors” with Kevin Bacon ,Fred Ward and Reba McEntire. Imagine running into one of those creature things down deep in an adit.

[@wygold]

A good cult classic👍🏻 I have all 7 movies and the TV series on iTunes and still love watching the original “Tremors”. Tremors 4: The Legend Begins shows graboids attacking miners in a mine that Hiram Gummer (Great Grandfather of Burt Gummer) owed. one episode in the TV Series goes back to a supposed mine when spunkers were attacked by MixMaster. Still it would be a trip.

[@haroldishoy2113]

@@wygold If that were to happen to Gly; and I’m not tryin’ to start rumors or anything, but Gly would just simply dispatch that graboid with his 45, nothing gets in the way of Mr. Incognito filming another exploration video end, of story. Now on to other adventures.😎
