Thanks for watching!

Root cellars are how food was stored prior to refrigeration. We had one under our home and another partially buried one outside our home when I was a boy.

[@richardbeee]

All 3 of my best explorers 😊

[@DaveExploresYT]

Great explore Dave. Really enjoyed it and it was a surprise being so close to where we camped. Great editing too

[@DaveExploresYT]

Thank you.

[@casedoumasr656]

Well Dave out exploring in the back country it is safe to say one never knows what will be found and you found a great one Steve and Andrea nice to see the 3 of you exploring this mining camp ⛏️🏆🇺🇸🤔

[@DaveExploresYT]

It was a great explore. Thanks for watching!

My paternal grandparents house had a massive coal stove in the kitchen with a water jacket and tank like that but the tank was vertical. They passed away in the late 1970s.

[@brendakrieger7000]

Sweet! I would love to visit Montana🏞

[@DaveExploresYT]

It's definitely a unique state to visit!

Mining people lived hard lives back in the day.

[@robwhitby2035]

That was a root cellar. Food storage before refrigerators.

2:20, Root cellar

[@solanaceae2069]

Didn't see your comment until after I had posted the same. That's exactly what it was used for.

[@mobiltec]

At 13:45 that's the black smith shop.

[@phylxguy5547]

Just wanted to let you know any mine that has this much stuff left standing almost guarantees that it's privately owned aka a patent mine doesn't necessarily mean that you aren't allowed just means good chance you should aquire permission to explore. This one is owned by Goldstream mining co. making it private property on National Forrest land.

[@fredschlecht8574]

If it is not a cellar and made of stone, it was to store explosives.

[@genegoodman4053]

Crawl space was used for food storage

[@daveallmon6937]

All the cabins that had the wire and the mesh over the windows I can guarantee you were not allowed in.

[@DaveExploresYT]

Oo boo hoo. Go get offended about something else.

[@tdropper]

You forgot to say where this is. Makes video pointless.

[@DaveExploresYT]

Then go away🥱

[@pennygreene925]

Some of us like these videos. I will never get to go there any other way.

[@RonPhillips-y5c]

Sounds like a robot narrator very off putting.
