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 YouTube!

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...

Laura, Gly, Thanks for this adventure, bats and all, especially the first one you two went into. This later one, flakey or not. This is looking good. It was fantastic. Thanks for this tour.

Thank you again! Even when the light shines on the back wall which ends journey, it is exciting to me!

[jacklisiecki]

Thanks to Gly and Laura for another cool mine adventure.

[christinastroud]

I really enjoy watching your channel; I even got my husband watching with me. Thank you!

[captainflymo]

Hi Gly & Laura another great explore thanks for the time and effort. I don't know which was worse the pack rats or mike Myers 😂

[kathylammers]

Gly, when you stepped onto that log to show us the skip cart, you really scared me! I was so afraid it'd slip and you'd be gone and there Laura would be, left alone! Maybe it wasn't as bad as it looked from the camera angle but it sure curled my toes! Thank you both for braving the various dangers of old mines to share the adventure. ALso, it was great to see some beautiful blue skies again. Maybe a dumb question but maybe in a few months could you talk about the different type of rails the old timers used? I've wondered if strap rails were made from wood or inferior iron, or different shape from regular ore cart rails. THANKS again for talking to us like we're actually along for the hike!❤

A dope on a rope in a stope!! LOL!! Good one Laura! And what happened with that pair of pants, or cloth article, that Laura found earlier in this last mine explore?

[JDJJADE]

Thanks for the Saturday explore video. That was a cool skip you found up in that little pocket.

[debrasonger]

Thanks for another adventure. GOD bless you both. Stay safe

I had no idea cinnabons were mined! One of my favorite mall stops back in the day.😂

[MrAnderson]

I really like the inside of the "Cinnabar mine" twisted an gnarled paths and splits

[sarahpovey]

Last mine was really interesting as always great video ❤

[bobrenner]

Thanks for mentioning FaceBook. I just went to that site and am enjoying the entries - all the stuff that doesn't get to the YouTube videos. Keep up the good work. I did my mine exploring in 1962 - 1965 around Death Valley. At 86, no more hiking miles to experience the findings.

[kenwestern]

Awesome video from a great team! Thanks again, you crazy kids!

[colleenvarlow]

Hey Thanks. Interesting about cinnabar and mercury. I liked the colors. Loved the ore slide. Amazing it hasn't collapsed, good wood I am guessing.

[andrewgrundy]
