Abandoned & Forgotten Places
Documenting abandoned mines like never before!
Let's take abandoned mine exploring to the next level!
With your support you can help make this the best abandoned mine exploring channel on KZfaq!
Shot entirely in 4K! ...so, turn up those video settings!
On this channel we go deep... REALLY DEEP into abandoned mines and tunnels all throughout the western United States. We researched some of the harder to find mines and hiked or 4x4 back into them to explore and reveal their hidden secrets. Many of these remote locations are filled with cool artifacts, antiques and unique geology that will have you guessing as to why the old prospectors worked so hard to find gold, silver, and other minerals.
A&FP moves just a bit slower as compared to other mine exploring channels. Gly discusses why the miners chose these sites and he points out the geology and minerals that got them excited. Veins of quartz filled with gold and silver made many men lose sleep in the 1800’s and early 1900’s and modern prospecting still does to this very day.
DANGERS? Oh yes, there’s allot of dangers associated with old mines. Un-exploded dynamite, blasting caps, bad air, bats, spiders, and snakes all find their home in abandoned mine shafts and tunnels. Oh, and let’s not forget rotting timbers, flooded passages and collapsing rock!
Gly takes abandoned mine exploring seriously with all the proper safety equipment, training, and experience necessary to do this activity as safe as possible but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a bit of fun along the way. “Gly”, your host and his band of crazy characters “Old Bob” (Gly’s Jeep), “Quackers” (Gly’s duck) and “Bobbie” (Gly’s hula girl) are sure to brighten your day with their comments and silly antics. Heck, they may even give you a chuckle or two.
Just like Saturday morning cartoons before the internet was invented, Abandoned and Forgotten Places uploads each Saturday at 7:00AM PST. (that’s 10:00AM for you eastern folks) so don’t forget to click that subscribe button and bell icon to receive notifications of new episodes!
Please LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT! All these things help grow our channel and your financial support helps us find new locations and helps put fuel into “Old Bobs” tank. Old Bob, thanks you!
Ok, now for the ugly stuff...

Gly, you know that there are a lot of us that would not miss any of your adventures and explores. We cannot get enough of the rich history that you and Laura are un-earthing on each and every episode. Thank you for everything you do to create the episodes for us.

I wouldn't say, it was a waste of time going out there guys, on the contrary. That whole explore, was hectic, and served to remind us, just how dangerous old mine sites, can be.

Really appreciated the beautiful views and that you decidedcto quit this location. They did an impressive amount of work, hope they had a good return on their sweat investment! Tungsten, with all that quartz? Could there have been some gold also? Again, thanks for all your hard work hiking exploring producing and editing. As always you do a great job and I enjoy every one of your videos. U 2 are the greatest!

@joandmary0815 19 күн бұрын

Gly - we love- been watching since the covid shut downs. What I miss is your explanations of the geology of the mines, how you would laser point out the veins - consistently. More than just a walk through like Frank and others (and now you) did. Anyway, loving your vids, just miss the geology lessons.❤

@mickie7873 17 күн бұрын

That puts alot of strain on the body & lungs hiking at the 8,000 elva. level. Walking around looking at the beautiful panoramas & taking photos is an easy going way of enjoying an explore, so we really appreciate you're "going the extra mile". (remember hiking to Gannet Peak at 16 yrs. of age?) Young lungs & legs.....huh?
