- Exploring an Abandoned Mine Filled with Machines from the Past!
In this exploration we once again join up with Isaiah from The World of Yesterday to enter an abandoned mine that once pulled iron ore from the earth. Abandoned for over 40 years, this facility still houses original mining machines, tooling, train cars, core samples and what today seems like dinosaur digging equipment. This is a good one everyone, so turn up the volume and get ready to travel back into the past with us!

A day to remember, easily one of the most historically-rich spots I've ever had the pleasure of exploring. It was an adventure and an absolute honor. Explore on!
Awesome to see so much left! Love industrial equipment and machines. Sick explore as always, guys! Keep doing what you do.
A fantastic location with so many items and artifacts to see and very few graffiti or vandalism - its a precious gem that should be kept away from reckless visitors! Also very nice filming! 😌
Something about this sound frequency sounds cosmic and extremely mighty
Awesome video 📷 now! Keep them coming guys always enjoy your content mickey and Nixon 👍👍👍
Super cool location, guys! History is thick! It's worth walking through all the snow, I'm sure! 👏💥
Always impressed with your camera work lol, keep up the good work guys!
One of my favorite spots too. Please keep it hidden so it doesn’t get ruined!!!
Drink a stubby and smoke a heater,love it
Could have just gone in the summer when the parks open 😂😂
I'm guessing, and I don't care if I'm right or wrong, that this is the oft photographed mine that I see in the Facebook group for abandoned places.
Look at all that snow! I didn't realize you had to hike this much to get to the site. Based on the early overhead looks from the drone, it is totally worth the effort. Unbelievable site this is. Jackpot!
So sad to see classic old rail cars left to rot.
Amazing equipment left behind at this site too.
Wow, that abandoned gantry crane is amazing. I assume stuff like the abandoned truck was at the end of its useful life, if not already out of operation, when it was abandoned. But that crane definitely looks like it has useful life left in it after all these years of abandonment. Stunning.
I don't know if there's much value in any of those old calculators or other odd machines in that office, but they're in good enough shape that somebody would want them for historic preservation somewhere.
How did nobody reclaim that giant tractor?
Holy cow, that is an impressive collection of control panels. The building may have been sketchy, but it was totally worth your effort to investigate it.
Sometimes an urbex video feels a little long. I rarely complain about it being too long, because I can always fast forward through it, and I would rather a video be too long than too short.
At 36 plus minutes, I thought this video might feel like a long one. Instead the time flew by, and it felt like there was a lot more territory you could have explored out there. I was stunned at how fast this adventure ended.
A highly enjoyable exploration.
Thank you for this video here in france we don't have a place like that! you gain 1 French subscriber
Thank you! :)
You have the Catacombs though!!!!! So lucky you French people ! :P, well if you live in Paris
yeah, i smoke menthol too, lol
That's a bridge crane, not gantry.
You're absolutely right, I'm facepalming right now. I have a tendency to confuse the two. Thank you for the correction.
@@theworldofyesterday4151 No problem! I work in the crane industry. It's cool to see that old P&H, they were some of the best made cranes before Kone bought them out.
@@talos9351 This is what I love about this hobby, it's cool when you can talk with industry insiders that are familiar with the tools of the trade and can provide insight and context for us to better understand these locations and what we're looking at. I appreciate the comment greatly.
@@talos9351 thank you for the information. Knowledge is power 💯
What state was this in ?
Understandably you don't want to reveal the location (in hopes that it won't get trashed, etc), but do you know the history, or can you share a generic history of this site?
Thanks for sharing.
I imagine you want to go back! Those old shovels are worth a days look alone.
It’s hill annex state park. I’m guessing they don’t want to reveal the location because the parks closed in the winter and they’re trespassing 😂
Who owns all this? I’d take every pressure gauge I can find and a lot of cool pulleys too
Never did show the mine at all!!! That’s just a wash plant. That’s not the mine at all!!
The mines a lake
I bet big Birtha still runs
That is a shear Looks like Paxto
Isa welder
The 3 canisters stacked together are old road flares. I have a set myself. Loving the videos. Keep up the good work.👍
