Exploring Abandoned Mines In Death Valley - 2023 Edition 

As a geologist, I absolutely love this. Wish I could come check it all out.

I enjoyed every minute of this video. I love being able to live vicariously on your adventures and satellite experiments. And because of you I am now SDRing and APTing myself. I am really enjoying the beginning of my satellite adventures, it is so much fun. Thanks for taking us along Gabe and I cant wait for the next installment of the 2023 Death Valley Expeditions

Some neat abandoned uranium mines in Utah. You should go there next.

Welcome to our backyard, The backyard can be a big scary place with many a creature either out to eat and or disable you for others to,, eat you. Thanks for sharing.

I love the wild life footage

Wow, wild! Thanks Gabe! I knew Tatooine was partially filmed in Death Valley so I went looking for more info and found some notes including the identity of the elephant who played the Bantha. I may have ridden on that elephant at the park it came from (Marine World Africa U.S.A.) and surely saw it in an elephant show, and I never knew. For locations I found: Filming took place in five different locations in the park, including Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Desolation Canyon, Golden Canyon, and Dante’s View, all of which can be accessed from the Furnace Creek Visitor Center.

My new favourite channel, currently binge watching all your other random stuff lol... Keep em coming

Save it for Parts is one of my favorite underground artists 😄 - this was a fun vid!

Awesome video! I used to explore Death Valley are back in the 70's while in the Marines. So much cool geology there. Look forward to more.

This is so neat!!!

I'd be nerding TF out in that crystal room!

Maybe an old oil lamp fell and started that fire. Good spot to hang a lamp, right? Interesting mines! You'll have to get out to Cerro Gordo one day. :D

Hi Gabe, finally managing to catch up on some of your recent videos. I really enjoyed this trip and always appreciate the historical information that you include during your narration. The formation that looked like the big skull instantly made me think of the The Goonies. I’m also not sure what goes through people’s minds regarding making a fire inside a mine, I would imagine a general lack of respect would be a key factor. The sunset camera shots you showed were fantastic and seeing the landscape as you exited the mine was also great. Thank you for sharing this excellent video with everyone. Best wishes to you, your family and the feline overlords 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇸

Really cool video! Would be wild to see some "saveitforparts" tech inside the mines somehow! The thermal camera was a nice touch. That loaded shoot at 9:38 looked scary as hell imo.

Fascinating! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for posting. This looks dangerous, but it’ll probably be fine until I’m long gone. Great footage!

Hope you keep your receipts this time. glad you showed us the glory hole first, for educational purposes of cause.

So. Much. Fun!

fine business

cool video! thanks!!!

extremely cool.

A very interesting mine exploration; I hope you found gold and are now very rich. The sweet donkeys could help transport a lot of gold from the mine. The cute spiders seem to occur there more frequently. I've been thinking if it's damp in the mines or what else could be decomposing the wood. It brought me a lot of joy to explore the mines with them. Thank you very much for taking me along.

Great video and interesting

Mineral collector here. What you call geodes we call vugs, or pockets. Similar but different.

Even if I could still hike, I don't think I'd be easily convinced to hike 2 miles *downhill* to a lead mine. Lol Gold or silver, I'd be all for it.

Cool Video!

That was a nice seam of galena in the wall there

Oh chute! What a sweet display of spiders and asses! Don’t forget to stick around for the crystallized cheese folks! 🧀

Need to find some hominids

SPIDER eeee so cute so fuzzy edit- and the donks! also cute and fuzzy

15:36 nice!

Reminds me a bit of the tunnels above your old homestead Can you go back to Funter and do content someday?

Great video! Every year I tell myself that ill make it to this and still haven't.

Do you think claustrophobia would be a problem? What a cool place to go rock hunting. Thanks saveitfor

where do i find friends like this? lol

It's funny I recognize some of these from another RU-vidr called abandoned and forgotten places.

As a Canadian I can very much say. "Fuck that" at 0:06

14:13 is dendritic pyrolusite :)

Aliens are pretty crummy drivers for being advanced species. They crash all the time

Nice cave, better than sand 😜

One time you mentioned a friend of yours doing some 3D scanning of mines, not sure the ones from adventures like this one, sandland or both. Any chance of a video demonstrating such techniques? Are the data freely avaiable for us nerds to poke and view? Thanks again for another great video!

just wanted to throw this out there. for your rail rider, to my understanding, the rail that parallels hwy 94 is discontinued. it used to service the nuclear plant in monticello but is no longer used. maybe a good long rail run on that

Yeah that was just a bit good. Superb.

more.

Time to extract some uranium 😀😄

Its minecraft caving but IRL 😀

Furnace Creek in Death Valley is where Hollywood transformed the desert into the central nexus of Tatooine 40 years ago. Anybody who likes mine content may want to check out the channel 'Exploring Abandoned Mines'. Frank just retired after 10 years and now runs a mine museum in Canada but he's started re-running his decade of explores.

Have you visited the Arizona desert? we have interesting places also.

Multiple holes ??

Do you have any Emil???

I assume there's no hope of ever getting to anything like this without a vehicle?

Hey real life Minecraft mining. LOL

1:25 "Don't mention my bee hole" - #LeslieKnope 🐝

Nice masks , you should wear space suits.

And you didn't have someone jump in front of the camera with a stick and do the sand people yell? Shame! :)
