Exploring The Ghost Town of Oatman Arizona

[@lotuspod17axemaster93]

You are making a 51 year old man shed tears right now, I grew up in Kingman Arizona and California south bay area and have been all over the tri-state desert up and down lake Mohave and mead from California up to Flagstaff and beyond still got friends and my daughter and family still in Kingman, you have no idea the memories you are bringing back for me, I don't think there is an inch of the Arizona desert I have not explored been a part of Arizona since 1974 and even was a Wildland firefighter initial attack up at lake Roosevelt, I could tell stories for days about the tri-state desert fun , I owe you a huge thank you for bringing these videos to Columbus Ohio for my viewing, I wish I could go back but I could never leave my son behind. Thanks again brother and be safe out there as you know it can be very unforgiving 🥲😂 and yes tears of happiness 🤜🤛🙏👉✌️

[@RemoteTrooper]

You're very welcome sir! I started making the videos to watch when I'm older. It's great to see other people already getting that fix!

[@jaycoller6431]

The waste dirt from mines are called the "spoils",. I thought you might like to know that little tidbit of information

[@40Rodsta]

Hey Remote Trooper! This is Rod the photographer in Oatman. Great video on Oatman. Thanks for the mention!

[@RemoteTrooper]

Hey Rod! I appreciate that and thank you for all of the helpful information! Let me know if you start making videos. 🤙

[@40Rodsta]

@@RemoteTrooper Will do!!!! Keep up the good work.

[@tammyhollandsworth6783]

Love old towns and antiques. My sister and I would enjoy a trip like this. Thank you for sharing!

[@lindabradford9591]

I drove Sitsgreave pass and I was a nervous wreck. Go from the west side, not from Kingman. It's out of the way but your knuckles won't be pure white.

Bill Elliots & Squirrels (Shirley Murphy's) A=Frame. We stored our Quads in Living Room for Summer months. (We were Sno-Birds) 7 Years To Oatman from WA.

Cyanide Leeching Piles.

At the antic store, the "juicers" are actually grinders...the cool metal toy trucks and cars are not from 70's....try 50's, 40's, 30's and earlier...The knife with animal handle is not a tusk, rather it is an antler....just some quick observations..thanks for the tour and keep on Trooping!

[@StacySalmans]

Cool tour, thanks for taking us along.

[@marceyvogt2007]

You take us to such cool places. Thank you William.☮️💖🎶

[@THX--nn5bu]

Love Oatman, I have been there a few times and I took my Wife there about 5 years ago on our Anniversary, I actually made a 45 minute video on my Channel on YT about Oatman, Laughlin Bull Head City and Lake Mojave but I took it down, I like your video much better.

[@southernexploration3777]

Wow, this was a really great video! Thank you for sharing.

[@glyn829]

Very interesting film 👌 enjoyed watching thanks 👍

[@erickarae3644]

Great video! Beautiful footage

[@terrysnyder6376]

I enjoyed your video of Oatman, Az., those Burros are great, loud cars, bikes, etc., and nothing phased them. And, when you were leaving they let you know you'd better pay them a fee in food for using their roads, lol. I wish they'd cover those vertical mine shafts, humans and animals are in danger around them. Another awesome video, thank you! 👍

[@RemoteTrooper]

😄 Glad you enjoyed. It was a fun trip and yes, the vertical mine shafts should be covered.

[@debrablue]

I LOVE IT & MISS IT SO VERY MUCH. Wish We Never Had Moved In (2008) Thanks So Very Much For This (VIDEO) Deb & Blue* 💙💞💙

[@cavecookie1]

Did you live in Oatman?

[@jesustorres5742]

Dude thanks for this video! I been trying to find the name of this town for months now. Taking my kids next weekend to see the burros.

[@dawnr9158]

Lol, I think the burros at the end were expecting you to have snacks.

[@larryfisher5796]

My Wife and I spent the day at Oatman .It was a great time . Really enjoy it.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@wendysilva621]

Loved going here and meeting the burro’s!🦄

[@Automotive_Intervention]

So cool, I just took my family there the day after Halloween.

[@rosaspanjol673]

Very interesting ghost town😊.. love 💕 it!

[@katbot2190]

I don't know about the rest of your subscribers, but that intro was Stellar! I think that leftover dirt is called tailings? probably spelled it wrong. Cool little town.

[@rosalindafaye5668]

I have yet to visit Oatman but it’s on the bucket list! I really liked that antique shop and saw a few things I would buy in there 😊 thanks for sharing this awesome trip with us 😊

[@RemoteTrooper]

Oatman is a magnificent place! Highly recommended 👌

[@dawnr9158]

What a cool shop! I could spend hours in there!

[@ismewhat1234]

Sweet video good stuff👍happy holidays

[@victorcontreras3368]

Nice visit! What was constantly on my mind was how, when and why the town was named after Olive? Did it go by that name before Olive passed away in 1903 far from there?

[@6delta]

Awesome 👌

[@TheAsif5182]

woow.great place to explore .if i woud ve been there .i 'd like to buy those beautiful lantern from pawn shop.

[@susiekeats9574]

The one burro with the unusual markings licking his lips is Oliver he is the main donk in Oatman (the alpha male) he is my buddy I love Oatman ❤️ my dad lives 20 minutes from Oatman so I am very lucky to be able to visit often

Wow, cool vid!

[@mehGyver]

Where's the Trooper?!?!?

[@RemoteTrooper]

2.5 hours each way to visit this place. The Trooper's 4.56 gears, mud tires and oil leaks would have likely spoiled the trip lol.

[@kalujinagal194]

Wow

[@tommcelroy6975]

Knife handle was antler not tusk which is tooth

[@joewenzel5142]

German tourists must love that place.

[@cavecookie1]

I lived there in the 90's, and in those days, Oatman was very popular with the Germans. A couple of friends of mine even ended up in a German fashion catalog for a couple of years. Germans would sit down at the bar and sometimes recognize them from the magazine! There was a German tour company that flew people into Vegas, where they would rent Harleys, and rip up and down Rt. 66. Oatman was ALWAYS a highlight of the tour. They'd come through about every 4-6 months, and the party was on! Those sure were some good times.

[@joewenzel5142]

@@cavecookie1 Then the Death Valley Germans happened and I've always wondered if that slowed down German tourism. I visited the lowest point in the US in Death Valley in 2009 and quite a few German tourists were there so not all were scared off.

[@thatoffgridlife5226]

Nice content

[@Ndw1995]

I hope there was a concert in town because if Oatman is always that busy, I'll probably never see it in person

[@johnpurdum8126]

It keeps becoming more popular all of the time. More and more people exploring.

[@Ndw1995]

@@johnpurdum8126 Major problem here in California. Can't off road or go hiking anymore. Too many people "exploring". The last 2 years have seen an enormous population boom in areas near the southern border

[@debrablue]

@@Ndw1995 Back in my days of working in (Oatman) We always had buses daily coming up from all over the World. People that would sign up for the Trip to Oatman from Laughlin. Many Californians ++ Other States, have since moved to AZ. from 2006-2007 BOOM. We sold & moved to (TX) 2008. I regret it .

[@dallashotz4716]

Hose are called tailins

Hi bro India

[@troyupshaw3846]

You need to study some history. The things in this video that you don't know what they are would fill volumes. BTW, the wooden insulator, isn't, it is the wooden part that is nailed to the crossbar that the glass insulator screws onto..

[@phillipmartinez8017]

This video is totally nauseating. Mal information

[@roccovanelli241]

Next time in the antique shop could you please show the prices. I was blown away at how cheap the couple prices I seen were. Those donkeys were pissed you ain’t had no grub for them…

[@jerrybrowder7159]

It's pretty cool there shoot out skit is kinda funny but for the people that have to go threw ther in order to get to work but can't because they block off the whole road and force people to watch is kinda rude remember old Tusan and there wild west shootouts ,insain,move it to the field at the north entrance that would be nice ,and spice up you act ,let's see the battle of toomstone,custards last stand,what about the young lady the town was named after,,she and the wagon train that her family was in fort attract by Wilde indians and she was taken and raised by them ,anywho no wories nothing personal,just saying that's all

[@maryshimmin]

People who live in Oatman know the times of the gun fights. It is not a major inconvenience. Most people that are driving on this stretch of road are coming to see Oatman or are enjoying driving Route 66. As for the gunfights, this is Oatman, AZ, not Tombstone and General Custer was not from Oatman. Mike Fox gives a brief history of Oatman before the gunfights performed by the Red Ridge group Thursday thru Saturdays.

[@debrablue]

Can always Go Around. Daily Shows Have Been Going On For Years !! Yes Olive Oatman is SMILING*

[@lincolndotson3613]

You seem like a bundle of joy. Lol. Go take a nap or a zanex.goofball
