my wife is called Sharon and she was in the kitchen cooking breakfast, so I turned the volume up loud when you shouted for Sharon, and my Sharon came LOL, ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO Frank.

Thanks for doing this for me. Always wanted to do this but I am too chicken shit and now I get to sit back and enjoy this. The internet is great!!

This is a Big mine damn & full of Equipment a Great find Frank thanks for putting out Awesome videos and sharing your knowledge about these old mines. Thank you Sharon & Frank

Another great episode and another wet package HA HA too bad you couldn't haul out some of those ore carts and locomotives

3 locomotives.....this one's gonna knock it out of the park 👍👍 got my seat reserved !

Another AWESOME episode Frank and Sharon. Thanks ;)

Those poor soggy locos, impressive they haven't rusted to bits yet! Some really clear water, too! 70K?! You could build a locomotive for less. Yeah, seems like it was shut down real quick!

Hello Frank hello Sharon A very extensiv mine much to explore and to see. Thank you for your work Take care yours Frank Galetzka

As always 5 stars !

I was in that exact mine shaft in the middle of winter about 10 years ago I never went nearly as far as you we had shifty flashlights and the water was frozen so it felt super sketchy Thanks for finishing exploring it for me now that I know it's somewhat safe I would like to go and check it out again in the summer 👍

Nice mine thank you .

Lots to explore boys. Wet & full of water boots lol haha.

I love how clear that water is!

Good evening from Southeast South Dakota

2:57 Frank says “flying down the canyon”, and at the top of the screen check out that dark vehicle flying haha

Cant wait!

Good Stuff, Thanks

Changed the saying from, keep you powder dry, to keep you package dry, and safe thank you

Those skinny pillars you know there was something good there neat mine keep up the good work

Absolutely love your videos look forward to your adventures 😁😁😁💟👍👍👍👍

Lots more mine to go! Thanks, Frank & Sharon & Ron.

Thanks for another great episode Frank and Sharon, this seems like a really extensive mine! I missed the premier (apologies) but it's definitely a thumbs up from me.

Strange they sure left alot behind for some odd reason, don't often get the chance to see all the really cool carts and locomotives ! Thanks for the awesome vid !

Awesome video thank you so much

Lots to see for sure , great you guys got the key , always helps to get closer ! Going to have to find a dry locomotive to rescue , close to a portal frank , lol !!! 😁💥

Good stuff guys , this mine just keeps going 👍. Frank..hope the package stayed dry 😁. Pete Australia 🇦🇺

100 years is a long time, just mining. Nice Intro and Info and drone footage. Break out the Vaseline guys. You guys must be part duck, Aflac, wow, is your skin wrinkled yet. Long ways back. Lots of ore carts too.

Frank I love your video's and thank you and Sharon for all the effort you put into your video's. I hopefully will get to see your mine this summer if thing's get back to normal. I try donate to support your channel when I can. Keep your package dry and be safe.

Hi Frank & Sharon, that was one awesome mine level both for how far it goes and for the artefacts. A very cool episode, thank you for sharing, much love. xx ❤

Left the live steam as I realized I've missed a few. Just wanted to chime in and congratulate you on your growth. I truly see you actually pushing the 1plus mil mark within the next few years. Deservingly well. Nobody works as hard. Keep it up man!!!

That was a very nice explore and a lot more too see by the looks of it wow.

Another great show!!

A brilliant explore. The anticipation😗 Take care out there.

Whatchya doing with the inflatable raft eh? …… going mine exploring on the mountain!! 👍😜😂

Nice find, Frank, you are doing a good job .👏 Stefan lortopalt from Sweden

Loved the drone footage it gives a cool overview and it was surprising to see water towers still standing. It's proved to be quite a sizeable mine. Good that Ron got the water temperature, now we know what you get yourselves into. Having seen where the water mark was on Ron's jeans we understand why Sharon held back. Nice collection of ore carts, crazy that so many were left behind. Thank you Sharon, Frank an Ron. Take care and be safe. 👷🏻‍♂️⛏👷🏻‍♀️⛏ ❤️❤️❤️❤

Can't wait for part 4

My mom and I love watching your videos! Great job! Keep up the awesome work. :)

Interesting technique for emptying your boots 🥾 here I thought you’d have to take them off to dump the water out! lol 😂

More ropes, more water, more adventure 👍

Looking forward to this one Frank & Sharon. Water surely means less rats for Sharon?

This mine is pretty massive, cool to see the ore in the carts, all the equipment and the long intersections. Cool stuff guys definitely 👍🍻

Drove by the mine site many times in the 80's on HWY 3. I didn't know how extensive an operation it was. Thanks for the view!

Looks a pretty extensive mine, can’t believe they left all that equipment there, looking forward to more, thanks guys

It looks like you found another large mine Frank! That ore cart full of ore! That raises a few questions. Looks cool so far. Can't wait to see more! Where's Sharon? Maybe she's having a chat with a friendly packrat!

Thank you very much for this very interesting and informative video presentation which is very much appreciated by the people. One wonders why they left the equipment here. It seems that they were going to continue mining, it certainly does not look as though they intended to leave the mine forever.

another cool as heck mine tour!

Yeah it might mean less rats but look at the swim she has to do LOL

Sharon could have had some cool pictures of the locomotives and ore carts, plus no rats!! As always stay safe out there.

Boy, you sure have it rough up there. All wet most of the time, or rotted out wood, rusty. Down here in California we are spoiled. Mostly dry. I prefer dust masks to getting wet and cold. Thanks for being willing to get wet, muddy and cold so we can see them mines

Neat to see the locomotives just sitting there. Too bad you can't just carry one out with you!

whenever we were looked down on for being less than someone else, mom would say "consider the source"

Hmmm. Reminds me of storm surge tides that flooded what is under Santa Cruz, CA. I never learned from what adit the railway was laid underground. I found an open back door. At the rear of a sea cave under West Cliff Drive. Pipe top was awash, slippery, and I heard a seal barking inside. Wading might encounter hungry shark(s). Y'think ?

Could a good size hose siphon out the water where the locomotive is ?

Have you ever tried to Safan out any of the mines?

👍👍👍

5:00 too early. That's when Linda gets off work. She will miss the first part of it.

Are the batteries still in those locomotives? If the owner wants to clean up the land, I'm sure the batteries soaking in all that water aren't helping lol

Imagine that capital outlay left behind 3 locomotives.

Were there any compressed air locomotives in any of those mines. I operated one 50 years ago

Could you put a hose in the front of the mine and drain the water 💧 out ?

What's up with gly. Haven't seen a video in a while.

Why don’t they try recovering some of those locomotives

Frank, I’ve come to the conclusion that you’re an excellent instructor since Sharron learned to better at this than you. 👍🏻☺️

So much waste sad can't say are killing the planet

Frank is sooo out of shape, just old I guess? Is he getting over covid?
