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.

    First, people still live in Gilman….it is not abandoned. Second, you are trespassing on private property.

    I hope you guys were aware of snakes . You could’ve very well been bitten and it would’ve been very hard for help to get to you in a timely manner.

    Until 2016 Colorado didn’t have a graffiti problem. Now these ass hole have found so many treasures to put marks on. I’d love an opportunity to catch one in the act. Maybe help them find the bottom of a mine shaft.

  17. BSB.333 on December 9, 2022 at 6:25 am

    Those small rocks that you found that you thought were gold, look more like pyrite.

  18. KenJ. on December 9, 2022 at 6:25 am

    Why do all the Mexicans have to do their graffiti over everything.

    Waiting for a Doc stream isn’t just a stream , it’s like waiting for the next episode of a long tv series or a movie , that’s the entertainment he brings to the table.

  28. fusemalaysia on December 9, 2022 at 6:35 am

    why you delete my comments…cause you know it fact

  29. Marilynn Jacobsen on December 9, 2022 at 6:36 am

    In the 70’s I traveled all over the old roads and visited many abandoned mining towns. I have been to Gilmore and many others. Most of the old wooden buildings are gone now. Some of the towns still had cloths hanging in the closet are probably all gone by now.. If you decide to go explore do not go alone and be prepared for bears or mountain lions or abrupt weather changes with the right gear. Its easy to get lost! My uncles worked the mines. Its a harse invironment up so high in elevation so be safe as people disappear up there.

  30. Tucson Bubba on December 9, 2022 at 6:40 am

    Great video guys!

  31. cupcardriver on December 9, 2022 at 6:41 am

    Even though Gilman is shut down due to contamination, the surrounding area is so beautiful. Great motorcycle road up and around Gilman. Back there spring of ‘23.

  32. Art Mota on December 9, 2022 at 6:41 am

    Fun fact: The front facade of this town looked familiar to me so I did a little digging, no pun intended… This town was featured on a movie from 1995 called Under Siege 2 Dark Territory" about a group of terrorists who hijack a train, it passes by the town on those tracks, at that time still in use. The town is close to the end of the movie, you don’t see much of it, they only pass by it, and IMDB calls it "Eagle Rock" but it’s the same town. I loved the part where you zoom on those manufacture plaques, last abandoned building I personally explored was an abandoned power plant, it was part of a larger complex to a textile mill. The assembly blocks were demolished in 2011, but it useta be huge. I first explored it in 2009 with a couple friends, then again on my own a couple years ago, the only thing standing is the power plant, which was also tagged, but by filthy garbage that made what you have in the video, look like art. I blacked out the grafitti on my video, but when I got home I found myself researching Babcock & Wilcox steam turbines, Detroit Rotograte Stokers and other equipment I found.

    Ola marcel que tamtos te ases conmigo aublamos en castellano por ai te ases tamtos somos vecino mi amor e te amo mucho mucho veni ya te nesesito en persona quiero aublar contigo sin falta

  38. Broella on December 9, 2022 at 6:48 am

    I’ve lived in Colorado all my life. Growing up my family would camp near and explore many of these old mining towns. Many fond memories. I ended up making my home in Gilpin County in the heart of gold mining territory. In fact, the small town I live in once had a population of over 10,000 because of mining. Now this town is full of casinos which is a shame, tho they say without the casinos it would have likely turned into a ghost town. Still, many of the old buildings remain and have been restored and there are the scars of gold mines everywhere peppering the mountainsides, reminding us of our once colorful past. I love living here..

  39. Jen & Jeff on December 9, 2022 at 6:50 am

    I live in California and I see chunks of stuff like that all the time that’s pyrite Not Gold. Also known as fool’s gold.

  40. Built by Dylan on December 9, 2022 at 6:54 am

    Square head bolts production was stopped in 1920

  41. UFO RD Contreras Sanchez on December 9, 2022 at 6:56 am

    is chalcopyrite

  42. Daniel Fegley on December 9, 2022 at 6:57 am

    I’m surprised to see all the wild life in the area if they water is polluted

  43. Alex Tatkin on December 9, 2022 at 6:57 am

    Still only updating in 1080p. What a complete shame. You put all this time and effort and risk into getting this footage just for it to look sub par.

  44. Glenn Dotter on December 9, 2022 at 6:59 am

    Not gold, but pirites. The thing that gets me is the company that ran the mine made all the money, but the taxpayers get the tab for cleanup

  45. Conrad Vogel on December 9, 2022 at 7:02 am

    Come on boys, you explore mines…. you should know the difference between pyrite and gold. Just sayin’ 😉

  46. Theodore Mcadow on December 9, 2022 at 7:06 am

    The actual reason miners brought caged canaries with them was to detect when H2S gas was present.

  47. Paul Andrulis on December 9, 2022 at 7:06 am

    That was fool’s gold, boys. (Iron Pyrite)

  48. Gabriel Uribe on December 9, 2022 at 7:08 am

    You don’t get a Like, Cause of those pink sissy bags you were carrying.

  49. AirPower 🇺🇸 on December 9, 2022 at 7:11 am

    My cousin crashed off the mountain there killing him instantly ..as his car went down over a thousand feet and his car has been there since 1972 .

  50. izthewiz on December 9, 2022 at 7:12 am
