    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 CZcams!
    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 and Laura, I do Love a Good Entertaining Video that is Educational in itself. I do know that these videos are for Entertainment, but Both Gly and Laura are good at entertaining with some education involved. I I have climbed though many Colorado Caves and a few Ol Mines also in Colorado, but I Learn more by the videos on "Abandoned and Forgotten Places" and a few other CZcams Channels then I ever could have from Mainstream Media. And I also feel like I am with Good Friends on the CZcams Chanels I watch, most of the time. What I am trying to say is this is in my opinion the Best Channel on CZcams or Mainstream media and thank you for Taking us along with you both. 40 years in the computer repair business and I can promise you that they will always keep you on your toes or under a desk.

    7:01 Center top, The angle iron going up with the gears and chain drive is the indicator to tell the operator what level they were on. The friction band (near side of the drum) is the brake to hold the load. The band on the other side is the hoist up friction and rotates with the bull gear. The two levers (rear) are for the master clutch and the hoist up functions. It is gravity down using the brake. From the lack of wear on the bull gear, shows it was well maintained. A really nice find. With some grease and a power drive, it will work fine like it is!

    Gly and Laura it s a mystery cause no one wants to dare and go down in those conditions 😊. It still was a fascinating find and probably once was a very interesting working mine. Ty both anyway. PS ,, love the big hoist something one doesn’t see still mostly intact. So enjoy right.

    Gly what would have powered that Denver hoist? Presumably a large electric motor, but that would need a power supply - is there any sign of overhead power lines in the area?

    • @AbandonedandForgottenPlaces
      @AbandonedandForgottenPlaces  Před měsícem +7

      “Gly”: Since it was the 1940’s, most likely it was a diesel engine running a generator that ran the hoist.
