Among other things I am a retired Lode Miner and have worked in the area your exploring in so I'd advise that you get a Geiger Counter as there are many Radioactive Uranium and Cobalt Mines in that area, also Radon Gas accumulates in low parts of Mines and Dead Critters can indicate Radon, takes repeated exposure to do the most harm but long term and repeated exposure can kill or cause Cancer. You can get a cheap one for under $100 on like amazon or ebay. Dead Air takes only seconds to kill so the rats probably died from long term Radon Gas Exposure. If you don't have an Oxygen Monitor, in Mines that do not have flammable gas you can use a bic lighter to test Oxygen, normal flame good air, medium tall flame is low air and a long tall flame or no flame on a known good lighter is very little to no air and run fast the way you came in. Be Safe. I enjoy your Videos.

Great video. The guys who worked at this mine were craftsmen compared to other ones I’ve seen in videos. The ore chutes, timbering, man-ways, etc., were super well constructed.

At 26:42, "Hodaka" was a popular dirt bike in the 1960's and 1970's.

Those trams must have really been a sight to see working for most folks If I was around then I would have had to watch it working

This channel always has the best mines.

I love how your buddy saves himself with the left foot kick against the ribs of the mine at 41 25 ish,ninja style save,love the explore, would love to see that mine!

Wow! I explore a lot of mines and this was a good one.

Love your channel. Way back when I was much younger, I explored ghost towns and mines all over very southern Arizona. Pretty much south of I-10, like Dragoon, Gleeson, etc. One issue was all the unmarked vertical openings that would be very easy to fall into if not paying attention. This was back in the mid 1980's (yeah I'm old). Loved those days of exploration. Hey, one thing that saved my joints and skin was light knee pads and elbow pads. Really saved my skin when needing to brace up against the rocks. Anyway, keep up the good stuff!

Recently stumbled across this channel and have been binge watching these exploration videos since! They're fascinating to me, but man I get the fear for you in some of these! Hats off to you I just couldn't 🤣

thanks for an amazing share of this really extensive mine

You certainly do find some pretty amazing mines. Wish I lived out that way. Thank you so much for sharing. Your videos are awesome.👍

Hi Jerith, a really cool trip, the mine itself was huge and just filled with so many ore chutes, wow. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

Great job for Historical records . filming Great also…

Yet another great video. Be safe and thanks for letting us tag along.

Left us hanging when you, climbed the ladders up that stope. But nice job thank you ALL stay safe

Awesome video sharpness. The tram towers were cool and so was that small sheave wheel. Bummer you didn't go down the winze. Big mine with so much to document and so little time. Great explore Jerith.

Wicked video fellas, look forward too the next one. Cheers

Awesome guys thanks it was a good explore

That’s a pretty nice man way and wood work plus looks only a few years old

Great landscape ✌️

Another great explore Jerith and friends! Curious how many miles you walked and climbed in that 2 day explore. Can't wait to see where you go next! Keep you the adventures and as always, thanks for sharing with us.

Great timbering

It was great. Thank you

i love your videos

광야의 자연스러움이 살아있네요.광산갱도도 최고입니다.네바다주인가요.?~백인들은 자연의 복을 받은거 같습니다.한국은 산과 들(논)뿐인데다 경제개발한다고 자연을 건설중장비로 다 갈아엎어 콘크리트만 온나라에 발라놨습니다.한국은 산외에는 자연이라고는 없어요.국민전부가 자연결핍증입니다.

Watched the whole video. Very cool!

Great videos 👍

Pretty cool trip. But.. can’t wait for the next one ;) should be pretty sweet

I cannot get over how crisp the footage looks in your videos. Maybe because there is no humidity/ maybe because you have such good equipment?

Great video. Awesome mine

Awesome 😎👍🏻

how much work they putted on the last big mine vvery nice! are this gold mines or? and how they bring asl the wood up there and in there very nice work

“Oh! There’s the bull wheel for the tramway!” So… where’s the bull wheel for the tramway? I guess that one got past you. Old engine blocks are a dime a dozen. Bull wheels are gold.

Looks like tram buckets

shit you make me feel good be safe

My husband and I have enjoyed your channel. Do you know Gly from Abandoned and Forgotten Places?

Where did the typical dust covering everything go

Where did the miners stay ? Cook shack maybe ?

That was kind of a weird edit. One second, you are crawling up the 430 manway, next second you are outside hiking back down. Was there nothing up there to film?

👏👏👍👍👊👊🙏🙏

Did the mine smell like Snark from BOXY ?

Wow I must have fallen to sleep during the advertisement cuz when it went the ad you were climbing the man way then it broke back you were out of the mine did I miss something ugh

what did they mine

Do you ever run into any snakes or poisonous insects in these travels?

Also don’t mind me filming you guys for b role 😂

can luke and me go with yoy

mustbe nv

Your friend should not be exploring mines with sneakers or wearing his sister’s shorts.
