What kind of person goes hiking out in the middle of nowhere and carries a Can a spray paint in their pocket ?
@anunnamedlad69764 ай бұрын
Maybe they use the spray can to paint a rock or two and place them where the trail splits off. I often ride in the desert alone and used to take pictures of my trail so I could backtrack. Some people will put up a rock cairn or try a ribbon to tree branch if there’s a tree available. There’s plenty of scrub brush in the desert, but now my ride has full GPS and I can backtrack my trails easily, but I used to carry a can of spray paint with me of the kind that is used to mark waterlines, electrical lines, etc., in the yard.

It is for storing explosives. It just more modern. It's deeper so if something were to explode there would be more pertection and the vents served not only fo keep the inside cooler but also as pressure release if it did explode.

"See what we can get into" is more like see what you can get OUT of. Had my fingers crossed your vehicle wouldn't end up stuck on that "road". What is/was mined there? Doesn't look safe. Somebody put a lot of effort into digging holes in the ground. Desert seems to make people go crazy and do unexplainable behavior. Ah, a bunker, home sweet home?

Explorers often leave water behind for use by others in emergencies. This is the first time I recall seeing water bottles in a mine, but I often see it in volunteer cabins. Water caches, such as this, have saved peoples lives. I'm reminded of the Death Valley Germans, two adults and two kids, whose vehicle got stuck in a remote area of Death Valley. They didn't survive.

Office or assay room. Those old timers were no fools. I bet there is another mine either up the wash or in the hills somewhere. This is about in the middle of the one you found and the other one. That first mine was not the work of an afternoon. A lot of effort went into it and it is still being worked part time. No sane man ever stored explosives in that concrete room. A blast in there and the concrete becomes shrapnel. Best practice for at least a century is to store explosives in lightly constructed sheds.
