The Lost Town of the Uncle Sam Mine - Has Nobody Been Here in a Century?

Ummmmmmm maybe invest in some REAL hiking backpacks and your bikes will Be WAY easier!

And another Banger 🎉

Just coming across this video and I actually looked up this route on the OnX Offroad map and it seemed to have been documented awhile back of the trailing going into the canyon. It would've probably been helpful if you knew about this app to route out the trail down there!

That man speaks like he's using one of those voice covers like when they interview those people on witness protection.

How old is he I feel ashamed and I'm 64

Awsome

Nice I know going down hill like that with a full pack is hard and going back up hill tired is hard thank you for all your work.

I'd have to die poor back in those days. There's no way I could live in a 117 degree canyon just to find some gold. LOL

I just found your channel, and love it. I love history, and after 3 of your videos I can't wait to watch all of them.

you love video you don’t island japen city mine

GREAT VIDEO

I got way too invested in watching this video and now I'm sore and exhausted from all the hiking. More please. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍

You should quit your full time job........much appreciated my friend 👍

I have been subbed for awhile, and have had time to watch some of the video's in your playlist. This one was particularly interesting, because no one has been to the sight for many decade's, and it was fun anticipating what would be at the sight. Seeing that it hadn't been scavaged was so nice, and really gave it that ghost toen aura. Thank you for sharing this adventure, and G-d bless you all.

Really amazing footage! Thanks for all the hard work and sharing.

A jeep would come in handy for you guys

Sir, I love these type videos. I do have a ghost town suggestion for you. directly east way up in the mountains there sits the old ghost town of Como. very close to dayton nevada. the road there is absolutely terrible, that is probably why most people don't go there. when you get there, you see old rusted mining equipment, and two stone cottages with the wood roofs caved in. excavating there I am guessing you will find something. in it's time when people lived there, it had a populayion of 800 so I hear. this is my suggestion to you.

Wonderful! History should be preserved and you have done that.

That had to be a brutal way to make a living😮

If you make it they will come@ "If there's enough interest perhaps I will make a video on this place one day!"

Just out of courtesy what kind of equipment you used for this video??

First day out there you said we don't want to be out there at night, is that because you weren't prepared or is there a danger factor?

Ditch the Subaru for a Toyota 4Runner dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The human race wastefully chucks stuff away in fads of fashion and money making. Then.... they go back later and dig it al up again and keep it and sell it. In another fad of culture and history and erm video making. You have to wonder why they didn't just keep it all in the first place?

Thank you ! This is the only way I could ever have seen this area . At 75 a 6 mile roundtrip with great elevation change on foot is unthinkable . drone style personal helicopter ?

Glad you brought your Gaytorade.

Why not do this in Spring or Fall when the Nevada weather isn't in triple digits?

Rezources? Really? Re source practice you can do it

That's where you need a horse or a dirt bike!!!

I would build a damm on that stream and let it supply my power needs and maybe you could filter the bad out of the water!!!
Be a great place for a shelter for the apocalypse!!!!

This is super interesting

My daughter lives in LA and my Aunt/ Uncle live in Philly. They randomly ran in to each other in the Mizpah Hotel as both were passing through.

great video but my question is where did the miners get drinkable water from?

Now you know why nobody's been down there in 100 years

You guys should have cash some water you should have cashed some water in between the bottom and the top so you wouldn't have to carry all that weight coming back up and there is one little trick that I was always taught sticker Rock in your mouth it makes your mouth salivate it don't have to be that big of a rock

Man if you guys are looking for old gold mines and old towns you can spend years in Colorado and fine all over the place and take your dang lifetime to find all the gold mines around Colorado just up around cripple Creek or Victor there's little mining camps all through the hills up around there I'm talkin some old I should know I grew up that state back when I was a kid you could you notes rounds around and look at stuff nowadays you can't do it anymore

Wow!

cutest video ever

Man that's what I told determined to find it something great video man

gods my inner painter would love to use the allum to paint a landscape of the canyon

Exemplifies how temporary everything is.

This was so boring

Ahhh, just what I love to do..... hike in HOT, dry landscape with hardly any shade and no respite from the heat.

I’m interested! The history on the building please.

The earth is flat.

Love the video just found your channel. Question? What kind of hat are you wearing ? Looks awesome

Alan’s voice sounds very much like Donald Sutherland. A great video. Thank you.
