A sincere thank-you to all my subscribers out there! We just hit 220,000 this morning. :)
JD's Variety Channel I don’t have time to watch the whole thing but I’ll watch 10 or so minutes of it
Whew... was wondering if it would hold. 😉
LOL Rob. I was still a few short until a couple hours before releasing the video. Haha.
I appreciate the shout last night!
If anyone is reading this comment you should check out Rob's channel for awesome coin videos! =P
Happy 220,000 subscribers JD :)
Nice video JD!! I say the bottle with lions crest of arms some type liquor bottle maybe Irish or french!
Hello JD! So good to see mountain trails, mountain streams, old homesteads and semi-vintage relics. I wish the old cabin walls could talk and tell the stories of the labor put into the building of the cabins and the people who lived in them. THANKS FOR POSTING!
I really enjoyed the walk to the old home site still standing. The tree was amazing - to think it likely was planted when they originally built that place. So cool. I'm linking the time stamp so those who don't have time to watch the entire video at least can appreciate this part for sure! 44:12
Thanks Rob. That was one was on my favorite moments in a long time!
JD’s Variety Channel, Nice job on 220K
next time you come across a board with nails sticking up, do the next person a favor and flip the board over so the nails point downward into the ground. ;)
Wheres the fun in that? 😂
JD it is one of the best ever pleasantries to see your metal detecting, exploration video pop up. It's hard to beat the quality and enjoyment you put into them. Thank you.
Thank You! And your Great Finds! Will See you Next Time! Thank You For Sharing! God Bless! Happy Metal Detecting!!
Boy, JD, you work HARD for TREASURE ! 😁 I'm SOOO GLAD you, ( at least found a marble! ) I love to dig OLD DUMPS... But, I would like them a little older than that... GOOD HUNTING to you ! 😍 You sure deserve your treasures !!! ☺ GOD BLESS YOU and KEEP YOU !!! ❤
JD - when we would find nails pointing up... I was taught to turn the wood over and push the nails into the ground so no one would get hurt!
Not a bad idea. I usually flip glass over that is sticking up or haul it away. But I guess being that deep in the woods I wasn't really thinking about it. I always try to clean up urban lawns when I find pointy objects.
Thatts hen of the woods. It’s highly desirable in culinary circles. Chef’s pay $12.00- $25.00 a pound. That was your best find of the day.
Yes, it’s supposed to be delicious!
I'm excited to see it! It is a delicacy
The marble you found was a Vitro Agate from late 1940s to 1950s. Called a "Conqueror" due to way bags were labeled. Had mesh bag with Conqueror on label and a battle axe. The shooter size was usually only one per bag of 40-50 marbles.
Hi! What A Great Moment! Congratulations! I love How you Look For Things And the History is Amazing! Thank you! Happy Metal Detecting!!
The last house with all the trash: my guess is that the trash happened at the end of the life of the house, during the Great Depression. The Lady of the house perished or left, and everything thing of her's was used until broken, and tossed out the back. The disrespect of just throwing trash out, is more of a 20th century mindset, born from a Mass Production Economy. You didn't have to reuse something, or repurpose something when it reached the end of it's life. You could easily buy another to replace it.
The Electric Box looked to be Knot and Tube wiring, and those were Fuses, not circuit breakers; the earliest type of electrical wiring in homes.
Other metal detectorists all search the grounds around an enormous tree, because that is an indication Residents of a Home took care of that tree.
The First Flat ground you really thought a house should be there.... it could still have been there, but it was so old they used wood pegs to secure the logs for the cabin.
Thanks for the trek through the woods. You take me places, I will never get to see.
Very true words. The beginning of the 'New Breed' attitude, 'Good luck, you're on your own'. Me, I'm a 61 years old Cornish hilly-billy boy. If I can't fix it, repair it, re-invent it, it goes into re-cycling. For me, it doesn't bode well to throw things away, unless they are truly done and done. Famine can follow in the tracks of wastage, in time.
@@KernowekTim I can't speak to Corwall, because I'll never get the opportunity to go there. Here in the States, the Great Depression created it's own PTSD. I'm your age, and I come from two generations of Hoarders: who learned in the Depression, that you throw nothing away. Worn out items would be the reources for whatever you needed. As you said: you reparied something until it couldn't be repaired, then you repurposed it or canablized it until there was nothing to throw away. My grand mother repaired their colthing until there wasn't enough fabric to hold the patches, then she cut that clothing up and sewed it into quilts. Any broken machine could be a wealth of screws, and metal parts.
In the Back Woods areas of the US like this cabin, the Depression saw a great Migration of people being forced into the cities to find resources, and jobs. Which is why this cabin, I susupect, was abandoned with all its trash. Then, all of those out of work laborers went into the army, and their wives went into the factories building machines of war.
When humanity spends any time within civilization, they generally, do not return to their more primitive homes.
@@Objective-Observer .....If that's 'civilisation', give me a dry, draught-free cave, with a readily available source of fresh running water from the mountains, in a well timbered land with relatively mild winters ! For me, people from towns and cities become more 'primitive' in their collective mind-set and behavioural patterns than the'yd admit to. Call me cynical or whatever, but the more I see and hear of people and their machinations, the more time I have for Human Beings. Dogs have always been amongst my most favourite friends though.
Good work. Glad to see someone using 'SCIENTIFIC METHOD, HISTORY, AND COMMON
SINCE in detecting. Those zinc Mason top go way back before the 50's LOL
Love your detecting in the woods. Thank you for sharing your video. Your so understanding about history and old things! I feel I'm in a history class, in a great way. Hands up for your video and 👍.
That was a wonderful adventure hike. You gotta' love Tennessee woods. Thanks for sharing!
You find interesting places to detect. This is enjoyable to me. Keep it up.
The button You discovered had the Word BELKS is most likely from a Pair of Bib Coveralls sold at Belks Department stores in the Carolina's , It's all farmers wore back in the 19th and 20th Centuries .
Great Video J.D. I guess those area's have been picked over pretty much already .
This was so fun to watch! Living history.
It really made me wish I didn't live 1000 miles away from where I grew up. We lived in the woods in Washington state with lots of old buildings that 40 years ago, were close to 100 years old, and old abandoned logging settlements. Across the road was an old dump in the woods we'd get old colored glass bottles from, and glass insulators. buried under years of pine needles. Today everything there would be well over 100 years old. A little farther into the woods, a lost town called Lad or Ladd was erased from a flood, no sign of it, it.. I can't find anything about it now. I'd love to go swinging in that entire area.
This is my favorite kind of detecting to do. In the woods, trying to locate old homesites, after researching old topo maps.
Thhtun no 😏😏
I know that you won't get this being an older vedio but I think this is one of your best. It could be because i am a country girl and love the outdoors along with i live in an old gold mining town. Sonora California out west from you. Thank you for your time and energy. Doe
I have a ton of old old abandond houses in my area. Probably some from the 1800s and early 1900s. This makes me want to get a metal detector
I going to buy on
What a beautiful place, thank you so much for sharing, and THANK YOU FOR THE MAP-SHARING. It was me who requested that last time, so I'm loving it.
Enjoyed coming along with you. Thank you for the adventure.
Love going on the adventure with you and loved the marble , I’m glad to see you smiling and happy again thank you patricia
OMG your 'JD's ASMR' bit made me scream-laugh. That was one of the prettiest fungi I've ever seen though. Looks like a white Hydrangea blossom!
First house looks to be the oldest. Log cabin that had siding applied when log cabins went out of style.
JD get some hiking shoes! Your feet will thank you 🙏
Completely enjoyed that! One of your best! >>Didn't know that about the old fence posts, I can look out for that in the future- There has to be more old sites- there wouldn't be just one with an electrical box & where the heck did the electrical source come from??. And that Mushroom is a delicacy for sure I don't know the name but we just called it a cauliflower mushroom -not easy to come by & were very happy to harvest one Ty JD until the next one☮❤
Nice job on the video watched it to the end thanks for sharing.
Excellent opening sequence! Keep up the awesome vids! Thank you for sharing and putting the time into this.
From my view - what I see - with the last place - is the house of a backwoods Witch.
The other standing place with some of its remnant outbuildings with Mason jar lid finds, looks like a perfect place for moon-shining brew. That whole creek area looks like a Moonshiners Paradise from back in olden days.
I typically don’t comment but I have to say I felt like I was on that adventure with you. Very cerebral approach to everything you do!
So glad you are going to go back, I think it would be amazing to dig a few pits up there at the second house to see what interesting things you could find.
This was an awesome trip and the scenery was just beautiful.I was amazed how well those ole places had survived all these years,I bet they could tell so many stories ..A testimony of your ancestors building..Thank you for all the information too 😀
OK...00:42 seconds in...I have to stop...to say...wow, just wow...what a great video so far...superior production skills...I'm impressed, and in awe...
OK...glad I took time to say that...now...BACK TO THE VID!!! ROLL 'EM!!!
That waterfall and ledge are amazing!! What beauty.
Amazingly solid construction to still be "standing". The one smaller shed was probably a wood shed. The other one was a tool shed. That add on was the summer kitchen. I'll bet the had some kind of windmill for power...maybe. That is an awesome find, JD!
Hello JD, Man-oh-man JD, that's what I'd feally call "Cabin Feaver"!!🧐🤔 Thanks for the effort of showing us this adventure🤗 That's some really remote areas to get into (huh🤯?), those kinds are called "REmote"!😖🤔😢 Hey JD, keep on pinging and digging, you'll find that haul🤗! BTW, JFYI: Remember to swing around those older fence posts (w/in 👀 of their house etc.), as that could be where they'd put their 💰 (in old Mason jars😯🙏🏻!!)!!! Have fun and BE SAFE! Take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy.👍👍🙏🏻😇👊
Great Adventure JD......Keep up the good work......so enjoy your show!
OH! I like your intro, JD and drone - Way-hey! 👍🦘🐾🌳😻
That's Some Thing!! Wow!!
All I can say is....Wowweeeee! I love that place. Good luck on the next one and happy hunting🙋🏻♀️
Awesome video JD👍once again your a natural and always enjoy your detecting videos 💯
Cool beans.
Wonderful adventure. I felt like I was a kid again and exploring right along side of you.
What a great adventure! The journey up there, the beautiful scenery and then suddenly there's one of the homesteads. Good job!
U got lots of friends jd.thank u!
Perfect 👌. Beautiful.
This was a lot of fun to watch!
By the way,,, BEAUTIFUL scenery !!! 😍😍😍
Great video JD , thanks brother
great video JD. love to you and mom. Stay safe.
What a fun video this is! And very clever of you to do this research and build the map. I’m a new subscriber. Thanks!
"Back in the day" homesteaders would dump their trash in a common place, usually behind the house. Or in a nearby ditch/ravine. I've detected around old farmhouses and found some of the dumps. Lots of Zinc canning jar's and lids, plow blade parts, horse halters etc. They didn't have money, so any coin is usually much more recent. - After watching the rest of the video, it's obvious you know that, lol. Nice vid.
Really enjoyed it! Beautiful terrain!
Absolutely 🤗 awesome hike! I love the way you explain what you're finding. Thanks for taking us along¡
You got a little intimate with that fungus LOL!! If it's on an Oak tree it's probably "Hen of the woods", good eating.
Hi - I loved this video, so interesting.
A couple of things
1. You can get really cheap really bright small led flashlights to hook onto a bag - I would love to see more detail inside, plus help check for hiding animals in those trees etc
2. I would suggest you list the state you are in for those of us just tuning in. It looked a lot like Washington State but the trees weren’t big enough.
3. It’s always a bummer to trek all the way up there then only have a little time and water to have to come back down so fast. Have you ever thought of doing a small camp out there so you have more time? And maybe bring a friend for double the digging
4. I am extremely shocked with how remote it is you don’t see more animals- Bears Bob Cats Cougars. Why?
Keep doing videos like this- Amazing!
Your videos always so interesting, thank you for sharing.
Thanks Zach!
Jd thanks for the adventure! I wonder why were here and why were here. Others went to great lengths to find there own spot in this world. Life wants to live and it finds it way.
220k! Congrats! I just broke the 80 subscriber mark this month. 3 years not bad eh? Lol. Don't let the haters and losers get you down. Let it be water off a ducks back. Do what you do and laugh at the venomous detractors. You've got no time for it!
WOHOO! More metal detecting with JD
This was just fantastic!! Fascinating! I love that you found this, I hope you find the cemetery at some point. I am just very surprised to see the electric at that home. Where did it go to?? It makes it seem like there should have been even more homes up there, for them to have brought the electric to there. I LOVE the length of this and what fun!!!! The porcelain tops in the canning jars are just so awesome to have found!!!
Mushroom looked like grifola frondosa or hen of the woods the highly sought after medicinal and edible maitake mushroom. They are delicious. The ones that I find here in minnesota are darker in color. Do your research in your area and you could be eating well. LOL.
What a great area! You are living the dream out there man.
Just thought I'd pass on a. It of info. Watching an old vid of you finding lotsa pennies-think your up to 35 !! Someone told me, that in yrs gone by, people threw pennies in the yard when it was built or they had just moved in as this was a way of attracting good luck, hopes, & dreams.
Wonderful explore ' thnx!
Nice video!!! JD - I always appreciate your descriptions of what you are thinking and why you look in certain areas. As soon as I can save some $$, I hope to be getting some detecting equipment to go hunt some treasure, so your tips are great. Thanks!!
Great Video
Love it Love it, you made it and your so brave!! Where to start, first I want to say awesome video! Love all your adventure video's! This one you knock it out of the park, definitely thumbs up!! I love how you capture all the nature in this video, and the music is so suddle mysterious to the adventure! I love the map, the description of the home sites, then you get there and what a wow factor! All the nature was beautiful, home sites incredible and your relics were sweet! The Waterfall and the creeks was so relaxing, it did go down from the last time you were there!! You got to go back and explore more!!JD Variety channel a must see!!
Thanks Sheila! I appreciate the kind words!
@@JDsVarietyChannel You deserve it!!
All the post production made this a great video. 👍
Hello from Lubbock Texas. Love the videos. Be safe . Wish I could be there.
That there’s really in-bread country there boy ,,I was awaiting Jed to come outa that house lol,,
WOW THATS PLACE IS OLD AS SCARY TOO AWESOME VIDEO
What state is this? As a Floridian I'm always looking for awesome vacation hiking spots like this.
Where in Fl Jeff? Im n Indian River..
Saw the JD graffiti in the cabin. How fitting. Lol
If you like mushrooms, you should do some research on the edible ones. That Chicken of the Woods, you could have eaten good on that.
Beautiful countryside.
How do you find places, old home sites, or where to metal detect. I’m a newbie. Thanks!
I loved this.
Cool old little cabin
JD tell about any encounters with snakes. Thanks for what you do, be careful.
You need a life straw or filter bottle! To run out of water with water everywhere is just silly! Enjoyed the adventure, as always! Thank you!
I actually have a life straw. Forgot to pack it. I'm working on creating a gear list for my more extensive adventures. :)
JD's Variety Channel can you camp back there? A lot of hiking to find a great spot and have to leave...I’m guessing no, or you’d be doing it.
No!! Amazing tho , Great Find!!
good to see u again it was nice to watch your video
Thisss is definitely a place one would find a horde of old coins😁🤪🤪
Hi JD, Where in Tenn? I'm considering moving either to Tenn or Ky, somewhere stradling the state line perhaps? Thinking 400 acres, for farming livestock ranching! Know of any large areas, not currently under plow, for sale?
So people didn't carry around their coins usually back in those days if they did have a treasure or artifact it would probably be in the Attic or under the floorboards or under the chicken coop floor maybe buried under a big rock and sometimes maybe buried in a lead box so you shouldn't ignore things that sound like lead or tin boxes ladies would put their treasures in tin boxes
just getting into metal detecting and enjoy your videos.. btw the buttered noodle mushroom is a cauliflower mushroom which is a tasty edible
JD! Dude awesome drone footage!! I may have been under a rock but when did you get a drone!?
Enjoyed the video
Amazing...
Loved every minute of this adventure JD.
You are definitely in a good spot you just need to keep hunting, and I guarantee you will find some good stuff.. People back then would bury there valuables.. Keep in mind when they buried it more than likely it's in a location that the person can see from there window.. And it won't be very deep.. I think you are going to have a lot of fun at this location.. Don't give up it's there.. Hope you find a lot of good stuff.. Happy Hunting..
JD get yourself a Sawyer mini water filter and put it in your backpack. There will come a time when you will need it.
Nice woods there
That first find looks like an old survey pin. Other than being kind of short that's how some old timers put their own boundary markers in place.
What a nice Hen of the woods worth about 15 bucks a pound
Congrats on the 220! I enjoyed the video but I must tell you I felt a little sea sick afterwords!
If water was that close they probably duh a well. And, if you look for lilac bushes you will find the outhouse.
that fungus at 58 is called "Hen if the woods" it is an eatable mushroom.
