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.

    At 20:19 that stuff you’re holding is called leaveitrite. Leave it right where you found it cause it ain’t worth anything.

    Wow

    I grew up there for a while as a child My stepfather worked in the mine his parents worked in the mine I went to a one-room schoolhouse there as a child we would walk down to the river and across the tracks to the other side and walk up the mountain to the most beautiful ponds you ever saw.

    Did you get permission to be in Gilman? I’d you Did how did you get it? I’ve been trying for years. My Grandad, Dad Father in law etc etc all worked there.

    look at allll that cash…

    The crosses are left their from when people die in auto wrecks. As for the stripping of the stuff left behind that is done mostly by theives. If a place is left alone for very long theives roll in and take what ever sellable stuff they can get. As for the gold it might be fools gold or that would not have been their either. I love these kinda videos but so do crooks. Yall find these awesome places and show the world and the theives see a gold mine. Their the ones who give yall a bad wrap.

    Why were they so stressed about a car being nearby?

  10. JT Sunrise on November 23, 2022 at 10:49 pm

    Cool

  11. Glenn Wall on November 23, 2022 at 10:50 pm

    Many have got rich by going through old waste heaps. Very common in the 1990s

  12. Paul Bearden on November 23, 2022 at 10:52 pm

    His name is "Robert Paulson"!

  13. Jake Skimmons on November 23, 2022 at 10:55 pm

    Lads, be careful. At 13:51 you walked through a whole pile of asbestos that fell out of the insulation on those steam pipes. That’s what all that white stuff on the ground and the pipes was. And for anybody watching, these old abandoned buildings are super cool, but remember that going in might actually be bad for your health and that it was abandoned for a reason. I’m not saying nobody ever should, just know what you’re getting into and how to protect yourself.

    💩

  15. Rhonda Aragon on November 23, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    Please do your research about why it was abandoned!!! The ground and water underneath was unstable so everyone had to leave. The mine tunnels were built under the town.

  16. Mohd Fahmi on November 23, 2022 at 11:01 pm

    ..em ..

  17. Pedrostacoz somehow open on November 23, 2022 at 11:01 pm

    How do people find these? How do you look up where to find these things.

  18. Angel Weber on November 23, 2022 at 11:02 pm

    This was the first video I ever found of Techno, after that I was a huge fan. During covid I watched a lot of his stuff and it helped me through so much that I can even put it in words. Thank you Techno for so much, were all going to miss you 😮

    Fun Fact: The actual land of Gilman, CO is currently owned by Viacom and they’ve actually expressed some interest in redeveloping part of the town as a ski resort.

  20. Dwayne Mauk on November 23, 2022 at 11:05 pm

    Always saddened when I see historic places destroyed by idiots who have to paint their graffiti all over. Why can’t people enjoy, look and leave for the next person?

  21. Randall Huston on November 23, 2022 at 11:05 pm

    The amount of waste is amazing

  22. Light Theory LLC on November 23, 2022 at 11:06 pm

    Still lots of gold there to be uncovered by the right investors

  23. Cappiece on November 23, 2022 at 11:07 pm

    Retiring from the coal mining industry it always make me crazy seeing people crawling around in those old shafts. Alot of them have oxygen deficient atmospheres. We called it black damp. And it’s like walking into a wall of anesthesia. You go out like a light and never wake up

  24. jayden Frost on November 23, 2022 at 11:08 pm

    Eric Howard Silverstein held auctions selling stolen human embryos attended by elders of Mormon church and many high ranking Colorado officials including Jared polis

  25. TOMSOIL on November 23, 2022 at 11:08 pm

    The US Governmental machine ruins everything!!!

  26. Jeremy on November 23, 2022 at 11:11 pm

    I’d like to get a group of people together to move back here. Get the powerplant running, get some water flowing……Why not?

    This is my favorite video out of all videos. Awesome place guys. A+. You guys rock.

  29. KreativDisko on November 23, 2022 at 11:14 pm

    I like videos like this. I live in Colorado, and have explored a few places like this. It’s disgraceful that all the graffiti has tarnished historical areas.. I can see why our government has gone to great lengths to make many of these sites off limits, because of the environmental concern and obvious vandalism that is bound to occur

  30. Spooky Girl on November 23, 2022 at 11:14 pm

    10:29 (I wouldn’t be under there after an earthquake, even a minor one.). Jk. Awesome video, guys. ,👍

  31. Jonathan Long on November 23, 2022 at 11:14 pm

    I liked the video

  32. happygingertime on November 23, 2022 at 11:17 pm

    Probably thousands in scrap metal there.

  33. April Swales on November 23, 2022 at 11:18 pm

    Should add Victor Colorado to your list.. while not a ghost town as there is actually a still producing gold mine there .. there are many remnants of old mines as well.. also seeing a gold mine in action is pretty neat too

  34. Mandy Talbot on November 23, 2022 at 11:18 pm

    I love living in colorado!!!

  35. james haliday on November 23, 2022 at 11:19 pm

    bear eats tourist

  36. histolee on November 23, 2022 at 11:19 pm

    Great video, detailed explanation is good, it’s a place I want to go

  37. ant-1 on November 23, 2022 at 11:19 pm

    First impresion, not to favourable. After giving it a second chance, really very interesting.

  38. Rhonda Aragon on November 23, 2022 at 11:21 pm

    Raymond Archuleta RIP my brother inlay knew him, went to school with him.

  39. J R on November 23, 2022 at 11:21 pm

    You should’ve checked out the caves just out side of Golden co I don’t think they’ve all been explored and with cave-ins open up new tunnels I’ve never went in and came out the same way you were under Neath Clear Creek at times

  40. None Ya on November 23, 2022 at 11:22 pm

    Im loving these stories in the comments from those that were miners and their families

  41. Scott Allen on November 23, 2022 at 11:23 pm

    Great vid, u found pyrite mate, very common to find in gold bearing ground.

  42. bil playmo on November 23, 2022 at 11:24 pm

    For me, Colorado is the most beautiful state from all USA……..many thanks for sharing, take care : )

  43. 84 CJ7 on November 23, 2022 at 11:25 pm

    Love your work keep them coming.

  44. jimmyboy163 on November 23, 2022 at 11:25 pm

    @22:00…..fools gold

  45. David Huber on November 23, 2022 at 11:27 pm

    What did it profit man.

  46. Daniel Ball on November 23, 2022 at 11:28 pm

    That’s not gold, that’s Iron Pyrite.

  47. ant-1 on November 23, 2022 at 11:33 pm

    Artificial voice over, no thanks! Gone! Next!!

  48. C on November 23, 2022 at 11:37 pm

    Clearly you have never met the population of St Elmo.

  49. RockyMtnGobblers on November 23, 2022 at 11:38 pm

    You found fool’s gold, it’s hard. Gold is soft, you can make a mark in it. I’ve been in the mine you were in at 5:07 I stopped where you did, I was hoping you had gone further.

  50. Trevor Scott on November 23, 2022 at 11:38 pm

    Living in Colorado, I’ll never be able to get over the environment. Such a beautiful place. Going into that mine made me claustrophobic! And I’m sitting on my couch with a fan on me.
