I'm home out on Long Island where I did enjoy this video. One of the things I like is that I could hear the gravel crunch or the wind blow because there wasn't any music. Good camera work
I LOVED seeing these Montana ghost towns - so much fascinating history of the Old West! Ghost towns just have a certain intriguing vibe that is irresistible to so many of us. I'm watching from Ohio down in the states, and I really enjoy your exploration videos, Chris. Thank you for sharing!
A past montana native watching from Anchorage Alaska and I remember being able to visit these towns before fees and trespassing problems. I loved seeing the big blue sky and beautiful mountains as I really miss the solitude of it all. Thank you..😊😊😊
Hey Chris, friend of mine had his great grandpa get himself hanged in Bannack. It was indeed Henry Plummer, the infamous sheriff. He & I both live in Utah btw. He's in the southern part, I'm just south of Salty. Henry was a young man with a wife & family but had a complicated past. He'd had troubles in the mining district of California if I recall correctly (also as a lawman). My own great grandpa was a blacksmith most of his life, but was asked to serve as sheriff for a very short while when he was living in Dodge City Kansas in the 1870's and '80's. Don't know why he didn't stick with it long, but I suspect great Grandma Julia may have had something to do with it! Loved your video and enjoyed the quiet of it all. We see these old places through rose colored glasses. But they were tough, hard places to live & make a living. Worked in too many oil fields to think otherwise. Be safe, God bless and take good care. 😊
Hope you read this , I live just about 4 hours east of Bannack for the last 34 plus years now I go to Bannack about 3 times a year . Love that town. The park Ranger is cool his name is John . something about that town calls me back often . THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA for a awesome video......
Thanx for the tour! Due to circumstances beyond our control we were unable to make the trek out west. Was hoping to see a lot of these sites and now I have... Cheers!!!
Very enjoyable Montana ghost town tour, Chris. Thanks for posting it. 👍 If you continue journeying south, you'll be able to visit and video ghost towns in my home state, Wyoming. Hope you make plans to do so in the near future.
This is very interesting! Good video, well edited and narrated. The building interiors in Bannock are in beautiful condition. Watching from the Village of Ravalli (pop 76) MT, in Lake County, I am a new subscriber.
