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.

Hi, Al. This video is about an abandoned me in Colorado USA Please show it to people who will like it. Thank you.
This place is in Red Dead 2 ! Neat
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.
سبحان الله
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?
Cool
Many have got rich by going through old waste heaps. Very common in the 1990s
His name is "Robert Paulson"!
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.
💩
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.
..em ..
How do people find these? How do you look up where to find these things.
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.
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?
The amount of waste is amazing
Still lots of gold there to be uncovered by the right investors
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
Eric Howard Silverstein held auctions selling stolen human embryos attended by elders of Mormon church and many high ranking Colorado officials including Jared polis
The US Governmental machine ruins everything!!!
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.
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
10:29 (I wouldn’t be under there after an earthquake, even a minor one.). Jk. Awesome video, guys. ,👍
I liked the video
Probably thousands in scrap metal there.
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
I love living in colorado!!!
bear eats tourist
Great video, detailed explanation is good, it’s a place I want to go
First impresion, not to favourable. After giving it a second chance, really very interesting.
Raymond Archuleta RIP my brother inlay knew him, went to school with him.
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
Im loving these stories in the comments from those that were miners and their families
Great vid, u found pyrite mate, very common to find in gold bearing ground.
For me, Colorado is the most beautiful state from all USA……..many thanks for sharing, take care : )
Love your work keep them coming.
@22:00…..fools gold
What did it profit man.
That’s not gold, that’s Iron Pyrite.
Artificial voice over, no thanks! Gone! Next!!
Clearly you have never met the population of St Elmo.
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.
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.
