  • Every year I try and spend some time exploring high up in the mountains, and finally I have had a few great opportunities in the Yukon. This site has been on my list for a long time, so it is nice to finally be able to check it off. This is the Venus Silver Mine, just outside of Carcross, Yukon. I was so amazed to see the condition of these buildings and equipment, especially given the harsh snowy winters.
    The bottom location was easy to explore, being right by the highway, but to me, the highlight was to top location with the mine shaft. I enjoy the top spot mostly because the view is just so so nice, but finding that mine shaft was an absolute bonus.
    I wish I had time to get an interview for this video and produce it a little nicer, but winter in sneaking in on me so fast right now. The roads in northern BC, and the Yukon have not been kind to my poor motorhome. I knew they would be rough, but they have been so bad that my heater is no longer working in the MoHo. It's on the list of things to fix once I get to Williams Lake, but let me tell you that list is starting to get pretty long.
    I hope each one of you enjoys this adventure.

    We were there last year. There are quite a few mines there we explored there. I roped down the vent raise at the end of your video it goes down about 50 feet into a flooded mine that goes way back into the mountain. It is sad to see the mill falling into the lake. The equipment should be taken out of the mill and put in a museum before the mill collapses and everything ends up in the lake.

    Trust me Dustin, the views were not lost on the miners back in those days. There's no way it could have been. I remember my grandfather's stories of his younger days riding the railcars between Saskatchewan and Vancouver and how he mentioned the beautiful mountains and lakes he saw. That was a hundred years ago now. Hey you should think about getting one of those electric fence units that high mountain backpackers use. You could quickly set it up around your boat when you are in areas like that. Another thing you want to watch for is porcupines. They love to chew on rubber. I lived on a cattle ranch at Punchaw bc north west of Quesnel on the Black water road, we had them eat the sidewalls on the farm implements occasionally.

    Excellent video, Dustin. I wish we could have gotten together while you were here, especially now, since I literally "wrote the book" about the Venus Mine 25 years ago and could have explained a lot of what you saw. The last location you visited at this mine was the final incarnation of the Venus - it ran into the 1970s.

    Dustin, I hope you see this. My wife, 5 year old daughter, and I are currently on a cruse, and we stopped in Skagway and rented a car to drive over the pass to Carcross in the Yukon. On the way out of the corner of my eye I spotted this building that I knew I had seen before! Turns out I had seen it exactly two years ago here on your channel. How awesome to see a place you know about in detail and never expected to see in person. I had to come back and watch this video again with my daughter to show her exactly what we saw. Of course it was snowing windy and raining up here this early in the season, so we couldn't explore, but thanks to you we could see it in detail. Thanks, dude! I hope this happens again. What a cool feeling. If you ever hit Colorado or the San Juan mountains maybe my videos could help you find some cool places to explore so I can return the favor.

How awesome is it that two of my favorite TH-camrs made a video about this place? Maybe now it will get more attention and be slated for some historical restoration. Probably not though; it's sad to see history rotting away but at least you guys are preserving it on film. Thanks for the great explore Dustin!

    There is a guy who has the show Survivor Man... Les Stroud. He did a survival in Alaska once and it was similar terrain. He at one point, when speaking of the view, just stops and says "This place is so gorgeous I don't even need to try and capture good footage" *paraphrasing* He then moves the camera around at random to show off how easy it was to get a spectacular shot.
    This reminds me of that. Beautiful land for sure.

    in Bear country, it might be a worthwhile endeavor to have a cantilever wooden cover built for the boat. Grizzlies like to "bite" thing to see what they are, and if they are edible. I had an inflatable Kayak with 5 distinct holes in it from a Grizzly, when me & some friends came down the Columbia River many years ago.
    7:55 I bet that old ore building , might still have Silver in the sand..

That or gut the back of the rv and convert it into a garage... or in your case... a boat hole.

    You really need a brighter wide beam light in an abandoned mine. Sketchy false floors with long drops below are frequently found in them. With only a small circle of light trained up ahead, what lies on the ground is hidden. Glad you made it out to post the video, though. I really enjoy your work.

    You know years ago my dad invented this thing called an Easy-up boat Loader what it does it connects to the back of your camper or motorhome whatever you put your boat on it and then you just wind up and it goes right up on top doesn't touch your roof or anything it would be a lot cheaper taking your motorhome on the ferry could you don't need a trailer plus you can put more stuff on top with the boat. But I bet you we still got enough parts around here to build one or two they were all galvanized and everything. You might be able to find someone mine but beware there are some real cheap copies that you will regret if you buy them

I grew up on the B.C. coast working as a faller and sailing the coast every chance I got. I’ve been to Haida Gwaii and explored there for a month. I know a few places that have almost disappeared into the ground and would like to share them with you. My Grandfather came here from Ireland before the turn of the century, my father was born in Rock Bay 1913 ,my aunt was born in a row boat crossing from Cracroft island to Beaver cove so I know where a lot of the old Hastings lumber camps were. I’m older now so I get enjoyment from your videos !

    That sits beside the road going to Skagway Alaska from Carcross. There are several of these mine buildings above the road, high up on the mountain side. That lake shown, is Bennett Lake. You follow the lake on that road,(it's an incredible drive) and you end up in Skagway Alaska. It's an incredible drive to experience. All of this is about an hour south of White Horse, YT. If you're ever in White Horse, I strongly recommend the drive. Plan for a full day, you won't be dissapointed! Cheers from British Columbia 🇨🇦

    Another great vid, grizzy bar don’t care what anybody likes or not. I see you are at least carrying a defender. Pack at the ready in the bush areas( I am sure you know that as you grew in same area as me). Back when I was wandering about doing archaeology work and had to camp in back country i would pack a pound or 2 of loose cayenne pepper and sprinkle it on my stuff and around camp area, if it’s raining it still has effect on belongings if covered ie boats. I never used spray on a griz as they just get pissed off and figure more flavor when they are done. A short spade shove at close quarters worked for me once against a black bear when I had no time to get iron moving. That sharp edge convinced him to leave. Grizzy Bar I avoided like the plague. Keep doing what you are and enjoy every second.

    The ventilation equipment is an ICG propane direct fired mine air heater. Dates from the ‘80s when they were doing some more work underground. Buddy of mine worked on that installation. ICG is now known as Superior Propane.

    I keep waiting for one of you guys that will explore mines, to have some ancient, bent back gnarly old miner with wild hair/beard/eyes, to come screaming around a corner with a pick that's been worn down to nubs.

    Another wicked vid, thanks Dustin! The Yukon is such a magical place and by far my favourite place in Canada (in the summer anyways).

    I drove past that mine on 4 different occasions and always wondered what was at the top. Thank you for solving this mystery for me, I wish I made the hike myself!
