The Birth & Death of the Mining Town of RHYOLITE, NEVADA | Seeking Seldom Seen Slim

[@anthonytimmons9328]

And it's rumored, that to this very day, Glenn can be seen wandering across the vast desert of Death Valley tirelessly searching for Seldom Seen Slim. Great series of videos. Keep up the great work!

[@CactusAtlas]

Ha! Love it! Thanks so much for the comment, and I heard a rumor that someone may just be editing the last and final of the series. Stay tuned! 😉

[@anthonytimmons9328]

@@CactusAtlas You're welcome, bud, Loving your channel, can't wait to see the finale.

Great special effects there, Glenn and Amy. You were spot on with the layering of the vintage images.

[@CactusAtlas]

Thank you so much! 😊 We're having a lot of fun with this series.

Amazing how the Porter Store somehow survived (kind of I guess) while every other building on that street is gone.

[@CactusAtlas]

It is, isn't it? Not sure why that one in particular managed to not be dismantled and reused but glad that it survived!

[@tpseeker3367]

Loving the research & how you are weaving it in with the editing. Yeah yer right about when the train tracts get pulled up everything along it just fades away in time. Keep up the great work @CactusAtlas. Hoping you'll be able to catch some Desert Spring Blooming.

[@CactusAtlas]

Happy to hear you're enjoying! Thanks so much! 😊

Well getting close to the end I bet. Amazing that these old towns still have a few building left. Nice special effects. If you have not seen “paint your wagon” movie.. it is a musical but a fun musical about gold mining with lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood. I bet glenn would like it.

[@CactusAtlas]

Nearly found him we think! 😉 Will have to check the movie out. Thanks!

[@robertallen6710]

You sure come up with super interesting history..thanks Glenn!

[@CactusAtlas]

We both thank you. - Amy

[@SomeplaceOrAnother]

Still haven’t found seldom seen slim 🤔 I thought I saw him behind you 🤪 Well maybe next time 👍 fun video 😀

[@CactusAtlas]

Can't help but feel that we're getting close! 😅 Thanks for watching. 👍

[@kreggossmer2029]

👀 Second time viewing but mot the last. Great chemistry @ Cactus Atlas. 👋 💥 👍 👍

[@CactusAtlas]

We can't thank you enough. 😊

[@desertTooHot]

A very macabre and informative video.

[@CactusAtlas]

Thank you. To me, the town of rhyolite is a strange and eerie place and gives me that vibe….

[@gstiles7]

So, I've been watching, but haven't commented for a few weeks. Glenn you forced me out. While we have been friends for some time now I feel that this will be taken in the right way...stay in your lane! Amy made her debut with providing us historical context/background, which is great! You doing some voice modulation...BOO!!! 🤣🤣🤣 And when you flashed the pic of reverend Kane, I totally spaced on Poltergeist and my mind went to that old dude from Phantasm. Great video and someday we'll find Waldo/Slim.

[@CactusAtlas]

Hahaha! Yay! Someone likes my historical videos! Stay in your own lane, Glenn! 😝🤣 In all seriousness though, he started working on the Slim series before I even got the idea to make the Tombstone rose video so it might have been me copying. 😳

[@eprohoda]

How u doing?.so perfec content!

[@jaywindley]

What's the name of the book you have there? The one you're holding up against the skyline?

[@CactusAtlas]

Glenn is likely holding up "Rainbow Chasers and Ghost Towns"

[@bob_frazier]

It's rumored that Slim left a message in the bottle house.

[@CactusAtlas]

How interesting! Thanks for sharing. 😄👍

[@kreggossmer2029]

🤠👍👍

[@laureljaneg]

1st to view !!

[@SwiftyTravels]

I loved seeing the ruins of those buildings next to the image of the street in its heyday. Frickin’ elephants!!! 😂😂

[@CactusAtlas]

Really puts things in perspective, doesn't it? We found that book online after our first visit to Rhyolite and were able to pick out a few familiar sites but seeing them next to each other... 😮😂
