Exploring Complex Lava Tube Mazes In Northern California

- The Lava Beds National Monument is located in far Northern California, near Klamath Falls Oregon. It has some of the most complex lava cave systems in the US, with over 900 known caves. The underground systems make up a complex and confusing maze of walkways, crawls, sinkholes, chambers, and multi-level passages. It's a really fun place to visit!

Lava Beds NM is so underrated! Such an awesome place
I came for the satellite vids but stayed for the explorer spirit in general!
“What is this? Some kinda tube?”
The internet is a series of lava tubes.
Headache Rock is the greatest name for a rock ever.
Awesome that you share your adventures with us!
Fascinating! I could definitely watch more of these.
Kinda surprised no cats followed you inside 😂😉
We went to some lava tunes in Lapine, Oregon quite a few years ago. They gave you a kerosene lantern at the entrance. Probably get LED lantern now. If I remember the tube was about 4 miles long and it was a dead end because it had collapsed. You could hear the traffic up above you. In spots the cave was about 50 ft in diameter. Long walk.
The nearby town, Newell, contains a great many of my paternal family members. Been to lava beds a ton of times.
I'm thinking that I've been doing vacations wrong. Thanks for the video.
hey, you're in my neighborhood! i have had several trips to Lava Beds starting from a very young age, super cool spot.
The nearby Fern Cave has drawings that seems to depict the 1054 Crab Nebula super nova. I have found many lava tubes around the Medicine Lake caldara and evidence of huge amounts of water bursting though an ice dam on the south side of the lake, perhaps 1,000 to 6,000 years ago.
Very interesting lava tubes would like to see more caving.
Would love to explore this awesome geologic formation
Got to visit some lava tubes in Hawaii, one of the coolest caves I've been in. Never thought to look it up, but didn't know there were some in California. I'll have to plan a visit someday
Cool caves! I live near an area of karst topography, and enjoy the unimproved cave systems.
Omg i would have never expected you to do a video or even be my neck of the woods 😮
You guys have way too much fun on this channel :)
We have been there many times living in southern Oregon
Nice one Gabe! V. Interesting to see.
In such expeditions, a UV fanatic is needed.
Now, can we convert one into a satellite bunker, like in those space age movies?
Nice spelunking, this place looks awesome to explore. :)
A very beautiful lava cave, the cave is very large. There are also stories about haunted caves, people say, but I wonder if there’s any truth to it. I’m curious if the cave is haunted. Thank you for sharing your experience with us, and thank you for the beautiful video of the lava cave.
Awesome you're in my area! Hope you got to see all the falls we have as well.
Very cool.
Yeah. I'm watching you examine the weird formations in the walls and ceilings of these tubes and remembering when the Space Marines went down into the Alien Hive. And no gruff sergeant around to say "NOBODY TOUCH NUTHIN!"
you don't need flashlights in active lava tubes
COOL! I went there as a little kid and its on my list to go back as an oldult.
Very cool I can't wait to visit someday thank you for sharing your adventure
This one looks fairly accessible. Nice!
I'm so use to watching your Sandland videos, but this was amazing. Question: What is the Flood Light you were using in the caves?
The light was an Olight Maurauder Mini. It's about 7,000 lumens so it really lights up a space. On the downside, I've lost the proprietary charger so can't recharge it :-P
@@saveitforparts Thank you. I've helped at Sandland before, but Hope to see you there some time. Keep the videos coming bro.
I really like the design of the stairs/ladders there. My long-term plan at the observatory, in lieu of a small scissor-lift, would be to build in a "servicing balcony" at an azimuth we rarely visit. My thinking is stairs similar to those ending in a landing that can be used to service the feed point.
That would be pretty cool!
13:56 Nice sequence!
Very cool! Recently I watched "The Fire Within: Requiem for Katia and Maurice Krafft", by Werner Herzog. Amazing images of volcanoes.
Gold sparkly stuff = iron pyrities, also know as fools gold. Caused many false gold rushes.
Nice video.
If you didn't fart down there, then you haven't experienced the tubes in all their glory.
Did you find any parts to save while you were there?
So cool! I wonder if they're subject to episodic flooding, and whether some lifeforms have adapted to that? Did you see any water down there?
It's a pretty dry area, these get a little rain during the year but nothing that would fill them up.
I hope your sudden shift to underground exploring doesn't indicate you've detected some unidentified space signals that has you worried....🤨 cue up X-files intro
What reverb plugin did you use?
Lol! Just natural audio on this one :-P
I'd be a full time cave dweller. Didn't north cali get tons of rain recently?
Might be a good place to keep in mind considering the direction the country is going in. Lol
Definitely cool to see.
What is "lava"?? Like in the lamps??
Are you one of those "its magma, not lava" people?
Has anyone tried to scan one of these caves with consumer gear- like a phone with depth or a Quest VR headset or a low end 3d scanner? I'm looking into what to bring when i go to Lava Beds next. (probably just going to bring the quest 3 and have it scan like its a regular room.
I bet someone's done it. That would be fun but also a hassle to bring the gear through crawls!
note to self, bring a pocket full of trail markers.
Def map required.
Are you still in KF area? I might have a computer for you.
Nope, back in Minnesota, sorry!
Heh... I used to date a chick from North Cali and we went there.
Oddly, I've also been to Hawaii, but it's mostly a tourist trap - unless you make an effort to not act like a tourist and do things like go exploring on your own.
Don't they all have a ceiling before to Sonos add an opening LOL lol lol lol just messing with you I thought that was funny
shave time dude!
Not enough alphabet soup. Unsubscribe. 🤣
Lol!
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
