Mountain Lion? Bobcat?? Wild Pig??? What made the noise that forced me to retreat from this mine? On this episode, I take extra precautions and walk back in to find the truth.

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 RU-vid!
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...

I believe you commented in the last video once outside that it sounded like footsteps or a person running. I cannot imagine a mountain lion making that type of sound while running. Generally one only hears the brush being disturbed when large dogs or cats run not the footsteps of the animal. Be safe out there. Buddy system and sidearm.

@davidseals352 4 года назад

To bad you couldn’t find any tracks or scat. I can’t think of what it could have been. A mountain lion would have been quieter I would think and a lone pig would be something I wouldn’t expect and it would have left tracks. Whatever it was I hope it found it’s way out of the mine instead of falling down a shaft. It might have been an escaped convict or maybe even the last living member of a species thought to have gone extinct hundreds of years ago or perhaps you are being stalked by someone or some thing that follows you around in the dark waiting for the chance to sneak up behind you and do whatever evil things it has planned for you. In any event remember to keep your powder dry, your thoughts pure and when it’s your time to go there is nothing you can do to change the outcome and at least you died doing something you loved.

@WarHawk- 4 года назад

I suspect that the sounds heard were that of the rocks being dislodged and falling as the animal escaped up the ore stope to the outside.

@plack_benis382 3 года назад

Try red and green laser pointers. You will get way more light farther down the tunnels.

I liked the video very much, on my moms property in very Northern California on the Klamath River has 3 shafts/holes we are aware of, but the mountains surrounding are full of holes and shafts, found some ore carts and a lot of rails. Are stopes always from above? And are ore passes beneath and or adjacent? One of the mines we went in had one 2x6 board across a big puddle, shining light down, it went very deep and continued as far as we could see.. We didn't go in very far, they are all sketchy, but of course, mining gold started in the mid 1800's at a $1,000,000 a mile, @$35 an oz on the Klamath. We pulled 75oz in 3 months with a 5" Keene a few years ago. Otters swam up to me to play, Salmon glided past, as big as me, tailings from dredge enticing them. That was a fun summer.

I went bear hunting 3 miles from the house when I lived in Washington. I almost walked into a 500 pound sow. I was in a thicket and the hair on the back of my neak told me to back out of there. I did. about 100 yards. After about 10 minutes the Baer came ambling out. I couldn't shoot it. It just stood there being big. I warned for it to go back into the brush. Two weeks later it moved into my back yard. The only problem it presented was dumping the trash cans over. One morning I opened my front door and there stood Mrss. Bear. She couldn't get away fast enough. Wow. Talk Azad about adrenaline.

If it was a cat you scared then it would extend its claws to make a quick escape. It'd be a lot easier to find scratch marks on that dirt or even loose rock when it was climbing. A cat walking will keep its claws restricted, but beating a hasty retreat it will extend the claws to get as much grip as it could to accelerate. Especially on its hind legs. Damn shame we couldn't have figured out what it actually was.

lmao I imagined how funny it would be if after that intro and you were like, "ok guys" the critter was right at the entrance.

Excellent video. Glad you did not find anything in that mine. Love to send you some gps coordinates to a few mines around that area I think I know the area you have been exploring. Keep up the great work and stay safe out there. ⛏💎⚒🇺🇸

You looked up that ore chute and I couldn’t help thinking of Winnie the Pooh talking about jagulars: “And when you look up, they drop on you.” 😂 Makes sense. If a big cat ran up that ore chute, you would probably hear back legs, front legs kicking in pairs, which could sound like something on 2 feet. And also explains the rocks rattling that added to trigger your collapse instinct. It’s probably a good thing you were talking to your video audience. It alerted the animal in plenty of time to allow it to escape instead of fight.

Hello, Man, you have the same curiosity I do. Metal detecting this spring, in Colorado...I went into a cave I found up on a bit of a cliff... well, I found a few old bullets in the first fifty feet of the cave, old pistol rounds...then I found a few coins and bobby pins... I crawled and slithered wayyy back into the cave and metal detected. I found a silver ring and more bobby pins. It smelled like a giant cat litter box in there. I wondered if the Mountain Lion had left those things in there from its scat, or if it was all just from a cave explorer or pack rats... great video Brother. Smiling, George.

Thanks Gly for going back. I like the way you showed the rise going up and then from the outside looking down. I'm going to say thatbit looked more like a vent than an ore chute going down. Blasting that deep inside a mountain produces some bad gasses that have to be vacated by using blowers or vents. Since there isn't any sign of blower piping then its vents for sure. You are an excellent mine explorer with a vocabulary better suited to explain than some of the other explorers. 👍

Some years ago, I did some work on a guys house, who had a large living room wall full of cave finds, in NV. Before they started sealing them off, and people taking stuff out. Tools, rusty guns, food and drink cans, etc.

Glad you didn't have to discharge your sidearm inside the mine. Talk about serious ear drum damage in that enclosed space.

@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces 9 месяцев назад

“Gly”: Yeah, that would definitely make your ears ring for a while.

I very much enjoy your work on this stuff I don’t know anything about mining - but- it is interesting to me- and I appreciate the simple honest narrative. Thanks again

From the entrance of the tunnel there appear to be the footprints of a quadruped walking close to the left wall. The impressions seem to resemble the prints of a large dog/coyote or a puma. They follow the contours of the wall by feeling with their hair/bristles in the dark. Animals would cause a lot of odor to fill the air, and they would scatter the remains of their prey. A large carnivore would be eating hares and burros. Coyotes are pack animals and leave hair and urine everyplace. It looks like something was attracted by the snacks and became curious.

Some of the abandoned mines in my area have even bigger residents, black bear, as well as the stray big cat or two. The unfortunate thing is that the government is blocking or gating almost all of the mine portals. They are putting huge heavy steel grating across the entrances. They even gated off a couple of weekend mines, that still had active claim notices at them. I have explored a few lava tubes and have found all sorts of interesting things, including the remains of an old Spencer or Sharps rifle in one. As well as a lot of animal bones. But they are now starting to put fences up around some of these lava tube entrances as well.

In Illinois we have lots of collapsing coal mines. They leave valleys when they collapse. The highways conform to the change in geography.
