Hello there! This past month was a great one up here at Cerro Gordo! We had a lot of experts come to look for things like water, gold, and wood. We made progress on a lot of projects and even started some new ones.
Thank you all so so much for all the support over the years. It means the world to me!
Check out Jason at @mbmmllc and Dan at @Danhurd !
ALSO - I wrote a book! I have been working on this for almost two years now and I am SO excited to finally announce it. I put my put my heart and soul into this thing and really dug deep on making sense of these past 3+ years living up here. The book has all sorts of new stories, insights, and history of the town. I think it’s the best content I’ve ever made.
If you've ever got anything out of this channel, I hope you'll consider pre-ordering the book. It is a HUGE way to show support for everything going on and would mean the world to me.

It’s pretty cool, how you can monetize your endeavors-I’m not business savvy, so I just don’t think that way, but I don’t hate on it. I’ve been working for a year and a half to try to teach people that every single loose stone is actually and artifact- fashion by the ancient people. I learned how to see in North Carolina when they were destroying an indigenous mound, it’s not a fantastic story, because the entire town had to watch them destroy it.. but I’m trying to make something good come out of it. ❤

I love the outdoors and I'm finding out what things work for me and other disabled people. Cerro Gordo is on my bucket list!!

I'd seriously consider what someone else mentioned a couple videos ago - the pump you have in the mine is insufficient for the distance you need to lift the water up - Swapping the pump out for a piston pump (or, overhaul the one that's already in the mine - an engine rebuilder could probably do this work!) is going to be the cheapest (and most reliable) option for you right now, especially as there aren't many people living in Cerro Gordo

I was sceptical until I was shown how to do it - we were working in Jordan, our equipment never turned up to check the ground for buried objects where we needed to dig with back hoes (cables, pipes, concrete, large metal explody things (was a Jordanian Airfield that had been bombed by israel) Out of 10 of us three could actually find something - I had no idea what I was detecting all I knew was that at the back of my heels was something - so we would dig more coreful and with more than one banksman - freaked me out to start, the Jordanian Airforce we were working with thought it was witchcraft - I was using two bits of galvanised fence wire I straightened - since then I have used copper wire, welding rods, steel and aluminum round bar as well as many pieces of fence wire. I cant explain it, no idea what I am detecting just know that somehow it worked - when I came back to the UK we spent 20k trying to find a cable buried on the airfield - they could not, so I gave it a go and found it within 10 minutes, followed the whole length and even found it had a large coil buried at one point. Since then I have searched for and found buried drains, cables, water pipes - I cant explain it, just know I found them and left a few sceptics unable to explain how

Nobody has an idea of the science behind it, because there isn't any. There's no water dowsing theory, no scientific articles on that matter except for ones debunking it (and one that supposedly confirmed it, but then it got debunked in another paper that explained methodological errors that were made). Ask different dowsers how it works and you will get contradictory answers.

Dowsing for water does not work the way the man in your video is showing. Liquids that are flowing underground produce a magnetic field that are parallel to their motion. Metal rods work like the needle on a compass and will try to align themselves with a magnetic field. A lot of underground water (aquifers) are like a slow moving river flowing along the bedrock toward the ocean. If there is enough water moving fast enough then dowsing rods will detect the flow.

Water witchers work... My parents bought a 2.5 parcel in the mountains and hired a 80+ year old man who was a water witcher. He found a spot a stake it off. They then hired the well company to drill the well. The company wanted to drill in a different spot but my parents refused. so the company drill where the water witcher staked off. In about a 120 ft they hit water. once they broke through it gushed out like a fountain. The driller was amazed and said we hit a double underground stream that crossed each other and was rare. I used divining rods as a demonstration that they work and placed a coin in my parents hallway. The hallway was dark and you couldn't see the floor. I found the coin when I felt the rods vibrate.

Doubt, fear confusion about the future. The hotel burning and being rebuilt and your many journeys over the past years and the many well place positive thoughts and shared perspectives have helped grow a community that spans the globe. A community who's lives have been touched in many ways by your channel.

"And if you need a shortcut, try taking a hike." So many things that Brent has said over the years is exactly how I feel and what I need to hear. I've always taken hikes when I've needed to clear my head or find some clarity with some issue that I've been facing in my life, or just get myself grounded again and at one with nature once more. I have always been grateful in the moment to experience the things in nature that I have, and I consider myself very lucky to have experienced the things I have, and I look forward to the things that I will experience in the future, including visiting Cerro Gordo!

The progress you've made in the last few years is a true testament to your drive and ambition, and the drive and ambition of those around you that are always willing to help. Despite the fire, despite the washouts, despite the struggle, you never give up. Truly, you are an inspiration and that is why I absolutely love your channel and your story. Thank you so much for making these videos and doing what you do, and thank you to everyone that helps keep the dream alive!

Mr. Underwood. Another excellent video. I have just put an order in for your book and look forward to reading it. I am very proud of what you have been able to accomplish and you deserve all the credit for taking Cerro Gordo probably farther in the past 4 years that what has been able to be done in the past 20. Congratulations!

We appreciate all the hard work you and your friends are doing. I bought a signed copy of your book I hope to surprise my wife with. I can't wait to read some each night to her. You, I guess you can say, are our "together" thing we love to do. Again, thank you so much 💖. Take care.

A lil over a year ago I moved from my lifelong home of central Utah, where 3-4 times a week I’d take my bike and ride through the desert-y mountains which were 10 minutes from my house. I live on the east coast now, but seeing you walk through the same desert terrain mapping out the best hiking trail you can makes me the happiness your future guests will feel when they hike your trail. I miss the desert, and your videos make me feel like I’m back riding my local trails.

Hey Brent, As for water dowsing… My grandpa did it and found water on our farm. My dad did it when our well wasn’t marked and he needed to find it to get it worked on (out in the countryside & builder had died). I watched him work. I saw him find it. Well guys dug, & fixed our well.

In Australia, gold prospectors looked for vertical stratafication laced with quartz, and from there nearby searched for "deep leads" which is ancient defunct buried river beds that cut across the vertical strata and carved out gold bearing rock. They would generally begin with angled or horizontal strata and keep following along until it went vertical and bam there was the gold. Once they found that they would run it down like water table sorter thing below the crushers.
