In this small series I am in Colorado with Edwin and visit abandoned mine related facilities.
I visit the infamous ghost town Gilman, which closed in 1984 by the order of the Enviromental Protection Agency because of toxic pollutants. Since then it’s a forbidden ghost town.

    Did the tweeters steal all of the copper?

    Look what the Terminator had done to the place.

    Why are young people so obsessed with the word "abandoned?" It seems they apply it to everything that’s not immediately being used by someone. Get out of you car to run into the store…the car is "abandoned!" Leave your house to go to work…your house is "abandoned!" I just don’t understand the obsession!

    The word toxic is soo in right now

  6. Allen Sarkozy on May 6, 2023 at 6:49 am

    The shiny metal chunks you saw around this mine could be a mineral called Iron Pyrite, it’s also known as "Fools Gold"

  7. Shawn Alleman on May 6, 2023 at 6:51 am

    The gold you found is actually called "fool’s gold".

    I’m always amazed at the amount of Timbers used in these sites in Colorado

  16. David Tate on May 6, 2023 at 7:02 am

    Did you to have permission to explore this area.

    So! where is the ghost town as in the description?

  23. Glen Danielsen on May 6, 2023 at 7:07 am

    Fascinating.

  24. Rebel Archer on May 6, 2023 at 7:07 am

    The little bits of rock you found most likely held Pyrites and not gold , otherwise the rock would be crushed and gold extracted .

  25. Oleg Rov on May 6, 2023 at 7:08 am

    SUPER!!!__________-

  26. Brian Mcnary on May 6, 2023 at 7:11 am

    I live in CO and I drive truck , I drove by this site about 6 months ago . I was so excited to explore this but it was all fenced off . Thank you for finding a way . Curious where about you parked to hike in? Thank you for the journey.

  27. Mine-Finder on May 6, 2023 at 7:12 am

    Extremely well done video. I can’t wait to visit this place.

  28. John Garibay on May 6, 2023 at 7:13 am

    Man ppl could get so much money from scrap metal from this town….. tracks, machinery, cars, etc. …. Wtf, hahaha.

  29. Jim Thomson on May 6, 2023 at 7:14 am

    Your intonation, pronunciation, and grammar are poor.

  30. Iirichil73 on May 6, 2023 at 7:15 am

    guessing there is lots of asbestos there

  31. Abe on May 6, 2023 at 7:15 am

  35. Guillermo Leonardo Aguirre on May 6, 2023 at 7:23 am

    Excelent video, the best channel of explorations on YouTube !

  36. NoName on May 6, 2023 at 7:23 am

    A professionally done video! Many thanks to you guys!

  37. Maryellen Larkin on May 6, 2023 at 7:24 am

    I know I am very late but to everyone still watching the video the main reason no one evee takes anything from Bodie is because it is a cursed town which means all the items are cursed. If you remove anything from Bodie it’s said you will be cursed until you return the item. I have been to Bodie three times now and are completely obsessed.

  38. Timothy on May 6, 2023 at 7:24 am

    LET HORSES RUN RE START AS FOOL’s GET TURNED LAND FILL !

  39. Thomas on May 6, 2023 at 7:26 am

    People haven’t changed they would risk human life for profit even nowadays. It makes me wonder how many foreign countries still do.

  40. Kevin Basden on May 6, 2023 at 7:26 am

    Marker 22:24 Gold comes out in chunks not crystals. That’s iron pyrite.

  41. I-vlog on May 6, 2023 at 7:27 am

    Yeah pcb, heavy metals, arsenic, sulfuric acid, Cadmium, asbestos etc. This is a place you didn’t want to explore with out a respirator and probably shouldn’t have been hanging out in no less eating food with your dirty hands after touching everything. After reading the Super fund site information you tbh are kinda dumb for going and your behavior.

  42. Sean Young on May 6, 2023 at 7:27 am

    Those chunks were iron pyrite.

  43. vnorvi on May 6, 2023 at 7:28 am

    You guys seriously need to be more careful. I grew up nearby, and every year there would be/are are stories in the newspaper about people like you being killed in a collapse around the old mines. It’s no joke. And that does not even begin to account for the nasty stuff in the air etc. oh, snd if I recall they will lock you up if they catch you in this particular town. At least bring someone with you who has a clue. You clearly do not.

  44. Jules on May 6, 2023 at 7:30 am

    Raymond Archuletta died in a mining accident. His memorial and gravesite info is online. Stated "small statured human and children were used in closed quarters"

  45. Northern Driver on May 6, 2023 at 7:31 am

    I like the Bat just chillin on the 2nd beam at 5:12

  46. B&L Garage on May 6, 2023 at 7:32 am

    Those old tracks would fun to put a speeder on!

  47. Jekyll & Hyde Garage on May 6, 2023 at 7:34 am

    22:10 fools gold.

  48. Jo Anne Busch on May 6, 2023 at 7:35 am

    I am the daughter of a former miner in Idaho and I enjoy your site. Dad was hired by a mine owner in idaho in 1943 to work in essential mining for WWII . He followed this career for ten years as a mechanic and heavy equipment operator. After WWII he worked for companies mining for gold, both by hard rock or tunnels and dredges. Growing up in the mountains was a wonderful child
    hood.

  49. Todd with 2 D’s on May 6, 2023 at 7:39 am

    How was it cheaper to leave all that machinery. They left a complete machine shop. One of those lathes is $75,000 and there’s 3 in one shop in that mine.

  50. Omen O'Flaherty on May 6, 2023 at 7:40 am

    When you tag up an old abandoned mine like, “whatever,” and then a million people ending up reading it.

    “Nice!”
