In Search Of the Abandoned Oasis Resort | Destination Adventure

- While flying the drone for the previous video, I spotted this location on top on the mountain. It looked to be an abandoned resort, or something similar, but there was only one way to find out for sure, and that was to go see. Trying to find my way to the top of this mountain, I found more things that really peaked my curiosity than this abandoned pool, and I hope to pursue those stories asap. But I had to at least find this place, and finally see what it is.
San Ignacio is full of history, and I cant wait to dive into it all. - บันเทิง
I think your phone, bag, and definitely the bikes tires, all got together and called 911 for themselves!
Lol. That’s fun. Thank you.
When you tell your bike don’t get stolen…your bike is probably thinking don’t get lost. Mud hut = adobe and know that in the southwest you expect to pay more for a house made out of it. LOL! I am really enjoying your fearless adventures in Mexico.
Don’t get lost. Hahaha. I like that
Mud Hut was hilarious. But yes, Adobe houses. My grandma's house and mother in law quarters was adobe. Still standing. 💐💕
I love this exploration and the eagerness to learn more about the history of a place. I find it crazy to see so many cactus and palm trees side by side for some reason.. both thrive in hot weather, just there's soo many! Beautiful place. 🤘🏆🥂💕
I have to hand it to you, without a shadow of a doubt you have the absolute best videos of this type I have ever witnessed, period. As an artist with 39 years of digital imaging, and video editing, you are amazing, entertaining, funny, real, relatable, and fun to watch. Keep up the great work pal, trust me you have no competition, none!
That is a very nice compliment, thank you so much.
Yup, I second that!
The obstacles that you encounter! And yet you remain so positive. ♡ ☆ ♡
There's is so much more to the pool and why it is what it is.
I am an old Oaxaca and Chiapas traveler and have seen so much like it. Gringos will never quite understand it but a lot of it is the way money moves and gets done in Mexico.
Yeah Gringos understand money and corruption I’m pretty sure
Some ruins in Mexico appear older than they actually are. The reason for this is, in the rural areas especially, people use the same construction materials and techniques they used hundreds of years ago.
Just finished a night shift. Perfect way to unpack my brain and get ready to nap for the next night shift! Thanks Dustin! Always makes my day! Oh, except I didn't know it was over 'cause you didn't say the line. You know, THE LINE: Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints. Continuity!
So true about the rains. Went to an old mining town near Squamish BC last weekend - closed in 1966 and almost no sign the town ever existed. Just the dam left from the original reservoir - though that intentionally blown as well. My last visit was 1992 and still had many buildings left, but all gone now.
I wouldn't call it anticlimactic, that view over the river valley was spectacular.
What a surprising find, that Oasis is beautiful. My husband and I look forward to your videos, he's the one who "discovered" you. :) I am enjoying seeing part of the world I wouldn't get to see. But am looking forward to when you are "home" again too -- just love the videos with the mountains and trees, the clear lakes etc. Stay safe.
That resort would have been an awesome place. What a shame to see it wasting away. Great video, thanks for sharing and stay safe :o)
Always something different & always something nice…thanks Dustin 👍👍
I will probably never leave my country again, so once again i thank you for sharing this stuff, it's amazing how much cool stuff is out there. And i gotta give you credit, got some cajones going an doing some of the exploration you do
I love watching your adventures. Thanks for taking us along.
That was fun! Thank you for taking us along! Rugged area! No wonder everything is sharp and pokey!
Just got hooked on your channel....I love it! Your funny too! Much love from Arizona!
That is the most epic bug out place.
Swamp cabbage everywhere, clean water, canal for irrigation and water wheels
Wow, very cool! Thanks for taking us along. Just the sort of adventure I would love to do, but can't due to poor health, so this is as close as I come, and I appreciate it.
Hey Dustin, neat video, but your ebike took a bit of a pounding. Amazing you drive it into some really tight spots. I think the first room you went into at the Pool was the pump room, as there were a couple of "pads" for the pump and motor with power feeds on the wall. Don't forget to use your tag line => Take nothing but Pictures, leave nothing but Footprints! It's your trademark.😉
This is a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon, this video is fun to watch ! Keep it up and stay safe!
Thanks for letting me join you, I loved every minute even the mundane things (tire repair,etc.).
Really enjoying your adventure.
You know it’s going to be a great day when you get that notification that a new DA video has landed 😎
Awesome can't wait to watch! love your videos Dustin.
Man I absolutely love your personality and videos 🙃🙂🙃
That dry wooden "skeleton" is actually from a cholla cactus. Funnily enough last time I was in Baja I brought a piece back with me to California and I have it in my cactus garden here!
Remember , take nothing but pictures, and leave nothing but footprints 👣
Love your content but Boy your are brave!!! In Mexico searching abandoned places- just into the basement, closed door building, jungle you go. You have me on the edge of my seat some days. Apparently you haven’t heard how the locals do nosey tourists in Mexico. Be safe 💚💚💚
Mexican people are some of the kindest most helpful and giving people I've ever met. Guaranteed if anyone r a crowd was nearby during that flat they would've been all up into helping him fix that tire situation. And they jump to help everyone enmass because that's what you are suppose to do and not for money. Then they'll invite you to eat and come to their home to meet their families. He's not in the USA.
@@deborahsimpson4968 absolutely!! I've been to Baja many many times. It's not what the mainstream media portrays it to be.
Wow, I had no idea the Aztecs made water parks!
Beautiful. Viva Mexico! Thanks for sharing your trip. 🙂
wow, spectacular view👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Another awesome adventure thanks
What a unique area! You are brave going through the thick vegetation my friend. Looks very tropical nonethless.
I never new that cactus plant turns into wood when they dry out! 😮wow it looks like wood carved into a cool design!! Awesome and amazing! Thanks for the awesome history...lol 👍👍🙂☺
Interesting and face paced. Great footage and narration!
another great adventure!!
That was a cool video. Nice chronicle of your destination from beginning to end.
Brass cojones for this explore Thank you for this one...Luved the trek thru the jungle!!
I absolutely LOVE your videos!♡♡♡
great stuff thanks,you are a brave man stay safe and have fun
Wow what a nice place! Shame! Thanks Thanks for for sharing your adventure. Cheers
Thank you for sharing this location😊
What a great little spot to explore for a bit
Oh I love your videos especially the one where you went to this abandoned town in BC called Kitsault BC! 🙂🙂☺☺👍👍
Damn !!!! I'd just about kill for a view like that and that pool, sheeeeeet I'd turn the bathroom/showers into a 1 room bungalow
Great video as always.
Hi, love your show. I live in the AZ desert and without being rude multiple cactus 🌵 are called cacti.
I don't live in the Arizona desert and even I knew that!!!
When you have a fresh cactus and push the spikes into it and dry it, then you put some small beans inside, seal it and you tip it up and down the longer the better, as the beans go throw the spikes it makes the sound of rain. they call them Rain Sticks.
I cannot wait for the history interview!!!!
Me too. I’m working on it :)
This vid was totally dope 😁
Really enjoy your videos
Just read a book called The Grinning Gargoyle about an old gringo's baja travels from the 1950's. He talks about San Ignacio a lot. I think it qas where his wife was from. I might stop by there on my way north next week.
loved it
Need tire sealant. Stans tubeless sealant, orange seal, or slime brand are all great.
In Catus riddled areas you should invest in some sort of tire slime, may make it easier to get home...may not go flat at all.
better yet. I now have the kevlar reinforced tires on my bikes. no flats in 6 years. wish I had had them when I cycled around the Cabo area decades ago.
Good stuff don't miss a clip
Thank you for the adventure. Beautiful but sad that the pool was never put to use!! Such a waste....
Great vid as usual, dude! I'm not sure if it's your camera, TH-cam, or my browser, but SOMEBODY is struggling with all that cactus moving around, everything goes all blocky and artifacty.
I enjoy your videos and subscribed. Alaskan channel is great also
I have the same bike. At 73 pounds, it is impressive that you were able to lift it up at certain points in your journey...
Sweet bike dude 😍👌
In Mexico, there is such a small percentage of the local people that have money for recreational use, that any business is dependent on tourists, if nobody shows up, they have no choice to close.
Thanks!
Thanks 😊
When I was spending time in San Miguel de Allende GTO, I was shown at least three places like this, which were would have been a great gift to the local kids and their families, but the operational money would inevitably be stolen by the local and regional politicians. It just pained me to see it! The Mayors were the worst; running on an anti-corruption platform which really meant "anti-the-last-family's-corruption-previous-to-mine"!
But before any commenters start hating on me, I am simply relating the opinion of not one, but three different local Mexicans; all independent thoughts, given freely by older and wiser members of the community.
P.S. Fast-forward eight years. The same cynicism and hopelessness is setting into D-dominated cities (mine included) in the US.
I am reading this four months later and I live on the Mexico/New Mexico Border and you are right. There are areas like this everywhere in Mexico and it is corruption and weird money transactions. Locals don't even pay attention to it..at all!
Hey bud...funny, I was thinking how long it was gonna take to get a cactus flat. And then it happened. Get some tube liners and a jug of " Slime". A handlebar bag to always have patches and a hand pump....tsk tsk!
*MEXICAN PATCHES?*
*MEXICAN PHONE?*
I'm hungry...
*TIME FOR MEXICAN FOOD!*
We don't need no stinking patches!
So.. In a road vs a cactus filled ravine scenario, go with the road.. Got it.
Always a good idea to use slime or line your fat tires as they are pokeything magnets.
That poor pig!
Jumping cholla and Christmas cholla cactus needles are the worst. Usually had to replace the tube due to too many holes!!!! Sometimes a dozen needles at a time!!!
Ever tried green slime in your tires? Great in cactus country for self sealing the tires as you get the punctures.
While there are no cactus where I ride, this is why I love tubeless with tire sealant on my bikes - patching up tubes after limping home is so annoying. 😅
👍👍
You need to convert to tubeless. Pretty common for mountain bikes
You should take a metaldetector to thoes ruins, maby find so e coins with dates on 🤔 greetings from Denmark
Please don't forget to drink water even if you don't think you need it I live in a place when it gets hot people die not too far north of where you're at
They may have been required to put that into run the electrical lines ..
But.. did you find water pumps and piping on or to the site?
I'm surprised you dont use tire liners, or a good tire sealant in your tubes, and I'm not talking slime, thats nasty stuff. Get the sealant that tubeless tires use. Shouls keep you going. Stay safe and keep pedaling.
Hope that dog didn't christen your scooter Dude !!!😎😍🤗
Some of these structures and things that didn’t get completed was one of the big crunch in the 80s hat bankruptcies legal problems never got finished still winter at home here Dustin in Williams lake getting nicer in Williams Lake but I still have 2 1/2 feet of snow in my yard and Horsefly anyway take care be safe have fun
I’m not missing the snow. Sending you guys warm weather lol
Almost heaven? Are you in W. Virginia?
Cactuses, bugs, and snakes......"3 things I love the most" said nobody, ever!
I forgot about scorpions. They’re on the list also lol
From the title and my lack of knowledge of your channel I thought that you had a military grade drone
You could make a beautiful home on that site.
Enjoy the video thank you
Well you survived the vultures. Be Free
Just so weird it's abandon like that I wonder how they would get up there
After wathing all the abandoned shows. Its crazy how all this money gets spent then nothing
Theres so many other places that money could be spent to help people. Its a shame.
Someone should buy it and put a house on it. Solar has come a long way wouldn’t be hard to power a big place there.
Very likely, the power company only funded the build and left the operating expenses to the community.
Dustin, you would enjoy a trip to Elk Bend, Idaho to see Dugout Dick's place. WOW!
Everything is out to poke you or kill you in the desert including the sun and sand!!! But it is mesmerizing though cause it’s so foreign to us Canadians???
if its an iphone i know theres an emergency shortcut for dialing 911. if the power button gets pressed repeatedly it automatically calls
The guy is out there S.W.A.T.ing himself in the desert. In Mexico no less.
watch out you don't wander into some cartel spot exploring around there. great videos but safety first.
Haa, we were just talking about my buddy putting his IPhone in the saddle bag of his Harley and it called 911.
"Don't get stolen", you must have forgot to say that in PG.
Riding that bike like you stole it.
You need to exercise some extreme caution in your Mexican destinations and travels.
Last thing you want to do is inadvertently bumble into some local narco activity. Wondering around backroads and trails is not a very bright idea, regardless of how tourist friendly the area may be - at least not without some local for-knowledge/advice.
Ps try not to get hurt hope you have a gps spotter!🦂
Did the gecko try to sell you e-bike insurance?
