We love going to Nevada. I would love to go exploring old ghost towns and mining operations. Thank you for telling the location so I may be able to explore some day. I realize many people don't want to reveal locations because of vandalism. But it helps people like me that not been out much find new places. Thanks again.

My dad spoke about mining history and then the condition was amazingly most intact and organized. Also the rooms were un damaged for the most part and offered shelter if needed so the scattered trash & bullet holed you see was done by asshats. Plus as you say there was a whole fleet of vehicles as I remember maybe 15-20ish... Cheers from Alaska

I have been to the area many times for a long time. I know those hills pretty good... and there is still a lot of gold in those hills.... nice video.. I remember more vehicles being there also. I would have loved to see that in operating condition back in the days... That area has a lot of history, to include Jack Longstreet, whom you say Andrew Jackson Longstreet, and even Wyatt Earp was once in the area during the heyday. The Medicine Rock is also nearby, a famous native American meeting site. The Shoshone tribe used Lida as a camp for a long time before miners. The spanish mined the area before the 1849 gold rush to California. A lot of history around there. There was even a site the Shoshone would go to, to get away from the U.S. Cavalry in the 1800's, as the Cavalry would not only run the Indians out, but take their women. Years ago, I found under one of the old cabins a Nascar poster from the 1950's still in great condition.

I'm a long time off roader and get out to the Utah's west desert. Amazing the amount of vandalism that occurred since the 1980s, especially in the Newfoundland Mountain range and Golden Spike (old rail line) country. The Bureau of Land Management has blasted most of the old mines to keep people out. I'm not sure what's going on with our civilization. I'll take a "city slicker" camping every now and then. At night they want to make bon fires and make noise, never can just sit quiet enjoy the stars. They have to play MTV stars or some such goofiness,

I hate to admit it, but if I was in that area, I would rescue them just to get them out of where they are because the ones who don't know and who are disrespectful vandals, will shoot them full of holes.

“Gly”: Early KZitem abandoned mine explorers were quite irresponsible when it came to revealing names and locations. When I documented this site back in Episode 64 I changed the name slightly so it couldn’t be Google searched.
