I started at the Dillon Divide near the Kagel Mountain Trailhead and made my way up Pacoima Road to Highline Saddle. From there, I descended down to the creek in Pacoima Canyon and made my way up to two secluded waterholes with a waterfall that are on the main fork of Pacoima Canyon just past where the south fork branches off.
After swimming in both of them, I then made my way downstream to the Denver Indicator Mine and then the Dutch Louie's Tunnel (the hermit of Pacoima). I found a bunch of Toe Biters in Dutch Louie's Tunnel, which was pretty interesting. It took a while longer then I expected, but overall it was a great day.
Here are a few videos of the Dutch Louie tunnel made by other people:

This is going below all videos in my long form content:
FYI: I explore a lot and stumble upon many different things. The way I go about sharing locations is that if someone tells me to keep a spot secret before I wind up finding it on my own, I keep those spots secret. Otherwise, I share information at my own discretion because I like sharing what I find. I may take things down, obscure locations, or remove data upon request as I have done in the past, but a lot of the places I visit are less well known (because I'm exploring), so I could potentially be removing everything if I did things the other way around, which I don't want to do.
If there is a spot you'd like me to keep secret (if I find it), let me know BEFORE. I change my mind about what I keep secret on my own, but if we talk, I am much less likely to jeopardize my integrity than change my mind. There are a few secrets I don't share with people because I agree to keep these spots on the down low (even when I have heard about them through different parties before visiting). If I find a spot on my own on publicly accessible land and I decided to share it despite you not wanting me to, THAT'S ON YOU. These areas are for everyone to enjoy, explore, and share with the world. Feel free to reach out. I am a reasonable person.
