Tagging tells a story.

Hi Justin, so many cool sparkles and that cribbing at the end was cool to see but very dangerous. Thanks for sharing, Wishing you a happy and safe 2023, much love. xx ❤

[@ABANDONED_UNDERGROUND]

That cribbing was extreme! It looked like a bunch of log cabins next to each other! Never seen anything like it before. Thanks for watching, and Happy New Year!

[@zerofox7347]

It’s like a Disney mine! 😂

[@ABANDONED_UNDERGROUND]

It truly is! Funny that you mention that! I make a reference to that in part 3!

[@ZiaMountainAdventures]

Great edit man! As always! That place blew our mind! Absolutely incredible!

[@ABANDONED_UNDERGROUND]

Thank you, guys! This place is definitely gonna be hard to beat!

Another great installment, Justin! So many cool things like the wall wired to detonate, the tandem ore chutes, the windlass, the peg boards, the trestle, and all that heavy timbering at the end of the video. The miners’ graffiti was also pretty extraordinary! There always seems to be pictures of “horses“ like you showed. I wonder if those are actually drawings of the burros that were used to pull the ore carts through the mine before the adoption of more modern conveyances. I would imagine the miners treated the burros as if they were family pets by giving them names, and the miners probably bonded with them. I thought this video was the perfect length, too - not too short and not too long. Happy New Year!

Hey, Frank! Sorry for the delayed response. I've been quite busy lately looking to apply my shiny new degree towards a career! This level of the mine did have some personality to it. That cribbing was INSANE! I've never seen anything like it. I did see some burro depictions in there, but a lot of what you saw were horses. I'm sure the mine burros were like pets to the miners back when they were used (and they were used in this district), and I'm sure they cherished their horses (like one cherishes their vehicle, lol). Thanks for the input on the video length! I try to get within that ballpark figure, but sometimes go over. Happy New Year to you, Frank! I hope all is well.

Hey! New to the channel and like your videos! Right at the 0:55 mark when you shined your light up the incline shaft there were eyeballs looking down on you guys! Or someone was already up there with a light?

[@ABANDONED_UNDERGROUND]

Thank you for watching! Much appreciated! That instance you mentioned is actually Todd from Zia Mountain Adventures up there. I was second to make the ascent. Good eye!

[@Porty1119]

First!

[@ABANDONED_UNDERGROUND]

Congratulations, you've won a free trip to the place in the video! Lol!

[@simplejones4364]

like a caring friend who will tell you your breath stinks, I am saying in a hopefully positive way that the music is mixed a little too loud compared to your voice.

[@ABANDONED_UNDERGROUND]

Thank you for the input. I have adjusted the audio for the next video. I welcome feedback on what you liked about the video, as well! Thanks for watching!
