    Recently discovered your channel. I'm addicted. I'm binge watching to catch up. I enjoyed this video too and was glad to see the ghost town of Cerro Gordo among the mentions. Brent, who now owns the ghost town, has an awesome youtube channel. He has done some amazing things with this property. Thanks for taking us along on this ride.

    Excellent video as always. A few local to Idaho worth considering are Bay Horse located close to Challis, Virginia City Montana, Custer and Bonanza located along the Custer motorway between Challis and Sunbeam. Don't miss the gold dredge of JR Simplot along this trail.

    Ghost towns and abandoned mines are my favorite things to visit while out on trips, so this is a very useful video for adding some places to my to-do list.

    Will! How much fun was that!? Thanks for putting this together. I feel like all I want to do while overlanding is explore creepy stuff like this. Maybe a ghost town or old west cemetery trip is in order! And @allthingsoverlanding Fletch! I drove through Elletsville on my way home from Overland the Red yesterday... wish I had watched this beforehand! (P.S. I like your shirt!)

    Such a cool video. I've seen a few of them before one way or another but definitely not all of them. Would love to see the ones up in Idaho and the church ruins in Carolina would make for some awesome pics with the right weather conditions.

    I loved this video, could've watch for hours. Won't be getting to any of those destinations from Australia but we do have plenty similar old mining towns here that I have ventured into several of and explored in the old buildings and tunnels. Ghost towns are off the itinerary now as my wife has been known to bring some unwelcome guests home.
