Searching for Gold at Fort Steele and Fisherville

We were blessed by extremely nice weather for the month of may and decided to head to British Columbia to camp out at Fort Steele. Fort Steele and Fisherville where old mining towns at the heart of the Gold Rush. Fisherville at one time boosted 5000 people looking to strike it rich. Some made their fortune and some went home broke, all that remains of fisherville now is some graves and whats left over for buildings as the moved and burnt the town down after finding gold under it.
There still is gold to be found here, most of it is very small flakes and flour gold but it can still be recovered that's for sure.

[@BackCountryWrenching]

[@DriveShaftDrew]

[@BackCountryWrenching]

drvshaft drew it was a good time

[@utahbones3094]

Great video Jerry, much safer in a tent without Aubury. I'll guarantee you got the shits from old Milwaukee.

[@Big_John_C]

Thanks for "taking us along", that's beautiful country for sure!

[@thedwightguy]

You should pack your Frank slide and Sparwood mining truck into a separate video.

[@retiredppd]

I watched a TV show on making those big truck tires, 60,000 US dollars each.

[@BackCountryWrenching]

retiredppd that's a lot of money

[@UndergroundTrev]

Nice vid. Looks like you really had a lot of fun on this trip! Just a suggestion, but if you edit out the noise from your drone it would probably make the footage and music a little more... majestic! lol

[@BackCountryWrenching]

UndergroundTrev i did that before and people didn't like it, can't please everyone

[@UndergroundTrev]

Bullshitkorner KZbin is a great place to find out that you can't please everyone too! haha. Hey, I still like your videos, even if there is drone noise... haha

[@zackzander4425]

Haha I just bought a 30-pack of Old Mill last weekend for $9.99. I didn't get sick from it. Better than Budwieser.

[@BackCountryWrenching]

Zack Zander i wish i could get beer for that price

[@thedwightguy]

@@BackCountryWrenching he bought his beer in the USA, right? Beer in Canada is three/four times that for a 30 pack!!

[@dwortss]

It's MFBT boys ... where the fuck is the dirty old man?? Nice shots, cool history.

[@BackCountryWrenching]

Stabit yes there is lots of history once people left the California gold rush and started moving on

[@JdA210]

Love the shit you put out there bub! It's motherfuckin gold panning time!

[@BackCountryWrenching]

Joshua Almendarez i can't wait to go and do more

[@BuddyLe38386]

Hey Jerry, do you know the name or send me a link to the drone that you are flying? And could you imagine crushing the crush sleeve on that dump truck's pinion. Gonna need more that a big bertha torque wench and a snipe for that.

[@RedneckGarage]

Great Drone footage - Notice with your trip companion the language is a bit toned down eh ? " Its beer time" and the best was - "oh my stuck in traffic on a mountain road" hahahahahaha Pretty country sorry you didnt strike it rich :)

[@BackCountryWrenching]

Redneck Garage for these types of videos i try not to be vulgar as people from outside my regulars will find the video

[@RedneckGarage]

That is sweet of you mother $^#%$ - you can cut the bull #@#% and ^&?

[@TheGeorgiaGent]

Something tells me that your lady wasn't too happy with her coffee...(?)

[@BackCountryWrenching]

TheGeorgiaGent no she took it off the burner when it first started to brew cause she didn't know how the camping stuff works so it was very weak

[@TheGeorgiaGent]

In any case, that is 5 star dining to me....

[@TheGeorgiaGent]

Bullshitkorner Thinking about it, I thought the reason of displeasure was the shallow grave and butt-squirt comments, but....with relief, I was wrong! Exploring historical, and forgotten, places is fascinating. Thank you for posting. It helps to keep ones perspective.

[@notpcone]

Was that your wife? Very cool to see her!

[@BackCountryWrenching]

notpcone not married just a good friend of mine

[@paystreak]

hi thanks for the adventure...check out ' mountain bouncer ' channel on you tube ...he speaks his mind as well and adventures ...mickey miner

[@johnk1955]

Sorry you felt like shit in the morning. You didn't drink any of that river water while you were panning or anything like that did you? That can fuck up your guts if it isn't purified. "Pissing out my ass" really cracked me up!

[@BackCountryWrenching]

johnk1955 you don't have to worry about that here, the river is running so fast and your pretty much at the source that you don't have to worry
