Exploring Dry Lake Beds and Western Ghost Towns In Cali! 

This comment is for Sr.---You did a good job raising your boy. He is eloquent and intelligent. Kudos

Big respect for showing Cerro Gordo. That’s a great series. Brent is a dedicated man

Just watching you and your dad together is awesome! What a beautiful example of family! Much love and respect!

CA was such a gorgeous state at one time....LA and other cities are continuously sucking every water source dry...can't imagine what that's done to the wild life ....

You all have become fantastic story tellers, keep up the great work guys! Not to mention, seeing a father dedicated to helping his sons become men, we need more men like you 3!

California used to be an oasis with brown bears, elk and many other species. It's a shame to see what has happened and how nature was treated. Become a conservationist and help keep these great natural monuments here!!!

Good wholesome father and son time. Always lifts my spirit.

I have cancer and your videos bring a smile 😊 to my face. I used to live in Nevada, which I miss.. thank you for sharing ❤

I absolutely love the relationship you have with your kids, it's awesome that you guys do so much together.

That's the SECOND time the road up to Brent's has washed out. The first time he spent weeks with the help of local maintenance crews to get it back to being passable only to have it wash out again. Brent's drive and dedication is on a whole other level!!!!!!

I love Lone Pine. We used to camp at Lake Diaz, and dirtbike up through Alabama Hills. We have visited cerro gordo mine when the old lady still lived there. Beautiful spot and part of my childhood growing up. Owens river also has a few rainbow trout. There is also a trout farm to feed some fat rainbows.

Love The camaraderie between you and your father. My son and I used to fish a lot in the snake river we would catch bass practically on every cast unfortunately I lost my son recently and I haven’t been fishing since his passing.I tear up just about every one of your videos I guess it’s because it brings back such good memories of me and my son we loved fishing so much didn’t matter what we were catching as long as we were casting we were happy.BTW my son was NAVY. thank you for what you guys do and may your God always be with you and keep you safe

I love ALL the content you put out. It is all outdoors based, fun and informative.

FYI: I ALWAYS WATCH TO THE VERY END ! SIN CITY OUTDOORS IS IN MY PERSONAL TOP TEN OF ALL Y/T CHANNELS ! I enjoy watching the diverse content with the perfect overtones of being THE OUTDOOR CHANNEL ! From your travels to ghost towns, to reporting on the current impact of less water in the Colorado River watershed and reservoirs, to your historical landmarks and research. Its all very, VERY refreshing to view. Now you have me frothing at my proverbial mouth when you mention that Julian drew a Nevada Bull Elk tag.... yeefreakinghaw !, LETS GO ! I love it! I'm a very young 61 at heart, ( I know, it sounds old, even to me) as mentally I feel 35 ! Lol ! I've had 3 spinal fusion surgeries in the past 6 years.... so I don't rather, I'm unable to hunt anymore, not a pity party, instead, switching gears to watch fresh talent as in your entire family, scout and call those bulls in ! Super stoked to see your whole hunt. You, your super squared away Dad, brother and I'm certain other friends and family are absolutely 💯 killing it ! And hopefully an Elk too. Wishing you all continued success and all of your fam,. the very best. Warmest Regards from Arizona

I just spit 🍺 out my nose laughing at SR fishing out of his Truck! I love these videos and the history of the land! Get a new truck before they are all electric!!

Fishing From the Window of You Car !!!!!! OUTSTANDING @@@@@ TOO FUNNY DUDE @@@@@ THANKS YOU !!!!! LOL !!!!!

Love going on the Adventures with a Fine Father and Son Team! That parade Announcer absolutely made my day with His comment on the '63 Chebby! "Scraping up the Horse Poop" Brilliant!!!

You and your dad totally redeemed yourselves on Lake Isabella!!!! Love your videos!!!!

5:18 It may look random to you, but that traditional way of making walls is still used today in parts of the British Isles. Walls built this way have stood for 100s of years. Cornish dry stone walls should be like a rock jigsaw.

When I was a kid ,I'm 58 now, we had a trailer out there and used to catch blue gill 100 to 200lbs at a time. Sometimes with a bare hook, crappie and bass also. Good Times!

I remember the first time I caught a fish, it was a 4lb Catfish when I was just 9 years old. I had no clue what I was doing, I never forgot how amazing it felt to real in that fish all by myself. No i didn’t eat it lol great content yet again guys! Keep it up!

I’m not really an outdoorsman but I do enjoy your videos. I love the lake updates and the history of the old ruins. Also I like the fact that you guys do this as a family.

I didn't expect a shoutout for Brent and the Cerro Gordo mine. This brings back memories of the awesome help missions of HeavyD Sparks where he brought heavy equipment and materials up that gnarly trail to the mine. At no cost. Just to help and move Brent's project forward. Dave Sparks is just a good soul...😎😎✌✌

This is actually a very informative video. It actually shows how much we need to take care of our world and utilize our resources sparingly.

Water and food shortage are going to be a huge problem in the future. Now threhere is a energy problem but it is going to get worse

Adrian, As soon as your video hits my feed, I watch it!! I LOVE what you & your Dad do!! Originally I began probably like many because of the crisis @ Hoover Dam, but stayed BECAUSE of YOU & SR ♥️ Y'all have such a "presence (?)" & manner/style in what as well as "how" you deliver each video that is so UNIQUE!! I am a 65 yr old grandmother in TX, originally from Los Angeles, CA ( as a child ) who finds everything that Y'all do, including hunting absolutely fascinating!! I would love for you guys to do 2 vids a week!! 👏 Bravo 👏

I love how you talk through the history and the present state of areas that you visit. Of course watching the fishing is always a treat

Yes, please support "Ghost Town Living"... Awesome guys!!!

love you guys, Thanks for what you do, Sr and Jr.

Heck ya, I climbed Mt. Whitney! 14,508 feet elevation. 22 mile round trip. Done in 11.5 hours. Highest peak in 48 contiguous states. Breath taking view and hike.

The boat that carried the silver bars was called the Bessie Brady. She sank fully loaded with silver bars in a storm. No one has ever found the wreck even though the lake is dry.

My dad was an avid hunter. He hunted it all but he really enjoyed deer and bear hunting. He even bow hunted and loved to survival camp. Unfortunately, He passed away in 2019 unexpectedly. I learned valuable lessons from him about hunting, how to use guns properly and the morals and values of hunting. I’ll take that information to the heart and to the dinner table. Y’all keep doing what you’re doing. My kids and I enjoy your content and appreciate y’a!

Hi from Bishop, Ca. Love to watch you guys! Senior you've done a fine job with your 2 sons. What great young men. Love that you're at Owens Lake! Hope you had a great time up in our area! My husband and I love to watch all your videos

Always excited for your guys’s videos 💙

Mmmmm Southern Fried Catfish Sammies!!! Nice catch!!!

Beanies and hoodies would be great as the weather starts to get colder out!! Just a thought/ idea/ suggestion.

I'm so sorry you guys couldn't get up to see Brent at Cerro Gordo. I know that road has washed out a couple times probably in the past 2 months. Hopefully another time. I hope you're having a great time on your vacation!!😁

Here so early the water hasn’t loaded yet.

Fishing, history, and learning the limits of a 12 year old F150! Good vid! 😁✌️

Always looking forward to SCO. Thank Y'all for the content. ✌🏾🕯 🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌇🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆

You guys should go fishing in Lake Tahoe. Would love to see that

I love Brent & Cerro Gordo! I would love to see y’all go back! I’ve been deer hunting once, many years ago, while I was still in the Air Force. These days I hunt with my camera and binoculars. 😁 I have nothing against hunting, and would love to try hunting wild boars and those dang nutria that are so destructive! Hope you get your big one Junior!

Thanks for showing us places most of us will never go to! Gotta love America - so much diversity from sea to shining sea (and Puerto Rico, Guam, USVI, etc)

Love to see Julian's hunt. He always seems so shy on the videos

Some my favorite memories were with my Dad(RIP)....... Get those memories all in Jr. ..... I miss my dad like crazy😥 ..... but I appreciate him and the times we had.... Love your videos guys ..... Keep em coming!!! Content thoughts: Deep Sea fishing? Just ordered up two hats from you guys...

A lot of people don't realize that lakes keep arsenic and other toxins in soil from being kicked up by wind. That's the biggest problem with Salt Lake drying up.

Ha! My little nephew used to call the taxidermy that the family had, the wall of death. He now has his own room of death. Deer, turkey, pheasant, bass etc! 😂

Wow, loving the exploration and water history/updates! 🙂

Great content, showing people truth. 👍

Awsome father and son Dou. An example of raising your children right.

What a well behaved dog 😊

Another amazing video!!! I love the relationship you and your sons have! I'll never stop watching your videos!! Thanks again for the awesome content!!

Always pleasurable watching you Guys, informative, and kind to others, keep it going

Man this water shortage really is concerning. Where I live it’s near the Salton Sea and unfortunately it’s salty and unusable. Too much water is going to the metropolitan areas. These cities need to stop growing and or put more restrictions on water usage. We here in the Imperial Valley really depend on the water from the Colorado river because of the agriculture. Thank you for your very informative content. God Bless you guys. And wishing you great fishing.

Cool old towns. Nice to get new info on old places.

I absolutely love y'alls video's. God bless y'all

I am so glad you guys blew up on social media. You guys make some of the most interesting videos. Keep them up

Thank you for highlighting Cerro Gordo. Hopefully he gets more support for his project.

You guys need to start getting sponsorships ! Start bringing that dough in. They’ll pay you to advertise ! Been watching since you were a kid

Love you videos. No hype, just enjoyable footage. Nice catch on the fish

You guys are awesome to watch I love the the respect each of you give out and hard work and content,what a blessed family you all are

Bricks are made, or cut stone. The first hut you demonstrate.So they used dry stone walling techniques to build stone huts. Using the obviously readily available materials. Makes sense. And you build only what you need when you're in a survival area.

Badass show 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎🦆🇺🇸🦀

Love all of your videos, and the history of the places you visit! Thank you so much! I do love fishing too, of course. In late 70's when I was very small, I would visit my grandfather in Traverse City, MI, and would go trolling on Elk Lake. Caught Bass, Sunfish and perch. My earliest memory is when I was 4 getting up before the sunrise and going out in the yard with my dad to collect night crawlers :)

Keep ding what you guys do. I'm adding to my wall with my kids. I was like your dad and didn't have anyone to take me, went outdoors on my own learning as I went. All about making memories with the family. Keep crushing it boys.

Pioneers getting fellow pioneer and patrons aware of what needs to be restored in nature before it's too late. Yes, nature may take itself back, but as the storms show us - by humanity's expense like the 2011 tsunami of Japan. That was just a small earthquake in Japan too. God willing, bless these pioneer father and son force, fighting for all of life's freedom.

I first heard about the Cerro Gordo mines a couple months ago when (at your recommendation) Heavy D Sparks helped that guy "Craig", who was stuck on a sand bar in Lake Mead, and he helped Craig 'refloat' his boat. I have been a fan of his ever since. Well, Heavy D just likes to help people who need it. Brent, at Cerro Gordo needed help getting the hotel re-construction started a year after it burned down. So, Heavy D brought heavy equipment, an excavator, 40,000 gallon water tank and a bunch of men to help install it. They hauled over a million pounds of stuff up that sketchy road you saw. And yes, it did wash out twice from flash floods. You should check the videos Heavy D posted on the project if you haven't already. I think there are 7 or 8 of them. Brent got a lot help on his hotel from Heavy D. It was fun to watch and learn about the Cerro Gordo mining area history. So, I'm now subscribed to Ghost Town Living as well. Check it out and have fun. -Bodrie

You guys are putting out some Great content. Different storylines with a common theme, the outdoors. Well Done ! Along with all the different things and side trips, I love how you show the - Catch to Cook - meals. It shows that you are true Fishermen and Hunters. It seems that you appreciate the value of the whole animal, from the catch to the plate. Great Job Guys !! Cant wait to see the Hunt. Wishing you Good Luck from Kentucky!

You guys should drive up to Mt Whitney and check it out! It’s a fun drive!

Leave it to the US Government to completely screw up a perfectly good water supply, then turn around and have to spray more fast-disappearing water onto a desert to keep it moist... Gee, sounds like the Dust Bowl all over again [eye roll]. We hear nothing about drought on the news in the PNW, so thanks, guys, for bringing all this to light. You do great work and I love your father & son team. You are raising an amazing young man~

Nice video ! Thanks for taking us along on your trip. 👍

So cool to see yall out in Owen's Valley and seeing the pool in Keeler that I've seen in several of Brent's videos. His channel is amazing and it's cool to see somone else checking it out

Sadly the road washed out twice, absolutely love Brent and his Cerro Gordo channel followed him since he had hardly any followers and just drove up to the mine for his first longer, oh and your channel rock as well

Awesome story! Thanks for sharing...and LETS HUNT!! Can't wait!!

Great video guys!...Very educational....Thank you for sharing.

Entertaining and they teach you things and show an amazing relationship of how family should be absolutely love this channel glad I found y’all from heavy cause y’all are easily my favorite channel keep up the good work y’all deserve so much 💪

Way cool 😎

Can't wait to see the next video! Awesome as always ❤️ blessing

This was differently one of my favorite videos loved all the content especially the history. That part of Cali is beautiful. Someday you Guys should check out June lake. Thanks again for the great video.

Never been this early!! Even I’m worried!!

I wish I'd had the relationship with my dad that you guys have...props to you both!

Im happy to see the fishing out the window to hide from Mosquitoes. Glad to know im not the only one whos done it. 😆

Thanks for the walkthrough!

Isabella is a lake that I want to fish in the future. During the spring crappie fishing is absolutely nuts! Great video as always🤙🏼🤙🏼

Just another great video. Love the history of those old mining towns. The best site on You Tube! Thanks guys.

Beautiful scenery. 💕.

Love the channel!!! I've spent a lot of time hiking in the Sierra Nevada mountains. I know Jr wondered if people have climbed Mt. Whitney, the answer is yes it's actually a fairly easy hike that probably thousands hike up to the summit every year . Love the entertainment and education of your videos.

Hope to meet you guys one day! I take a yearly trip up to the mammoth lakes, stopping along the way in each town, bishop, lone pine & such, Owens river is a great river to fish.

super good. Thank you guys.

Great video appreciate you guys posting this lake videos keep up the good work

I’d love to see y’all go to Cerro Gordo in future video!

I've been watching you and your father for months now!! You guys sort of remind me of myself (50) and my son (27). Anyhow, I'd love to see you guys and Brent do a collab!! I was already sub'd to @Ghost Town Living, but I'm now subscribed to @Sin City Outdoors! Keep up the great content (especially the fishing stuff)!!

The family relationship is just great. Two friends. Loving history, the outdoors and of course fishing :D

Love this style!! Nice idea combining the fishing with dried out lake beds!!!

Jr always so cute and handsome. Love the haircut Jr. Thanks for showing us around with the interesting facts.

Sir. You fishing from your car was the coolest thing I've seen in years. Thanks again for the amazing videos.

Wow

If you guys ever want to travel north, come take a look at Trinity County CA. We have the Trinity River, Trinity Lake, and Lewiston Lake, all within 5 miles of each other. We have salmon (coho in fall and spring runs), trout, (rainbows, browns) steelhead, bass and some cats in Trinity Lake.

Try washing the radiator out on your truck and possibly even change the coolant if it's old, that could help with the over heating.

California sucking the water and sucking the souls huh?
