Thank you Sir for a beautiful video about my favorite place Idaho! I had the most wonderful experience breaking down in Idaho. I'm going back to even see all these ghost town d. The piano music was wonderful! Boy, Dan you really made my day. From St. Augustine FL.
It's so awesome to see these old towns. I wonder if you did this video again if the population is different and even the landscape. I wonder also if you could possibly see if any more people are moving into the surrounding areas. This was so fun to watch, thanks.
Oh how I love these old towns. I had the privilege of living in Pony, Montana for over 3 years. It's just an awesome aspect of American culture that is almost lost. And who would not like this video? Shame on those 11 people.
I believe so. I made this recording in 2005 but this is such an important historical piece of equipment that they have probably left it there even if there is no one to watch it.
Thank you, I moved to Boise from California to be with my son a little over a year ago, I look forward to exploring Idaho's history, and geology. Beautiful!
I was born in Grangeville Idaho in 1952. We moved to Arizona in 1959. Sure miss that country. Live in Bisbee,Az now for 56 years. Love this video! Thanks!!
This place is beautiful. The type of place I love to tour. I think I am going to make plans to visit Idaho after seeing this. It really captures that old western look, and also is just pure beauty. I'm from Kentucky, we have many beautiful places here too, but this Video really opened my eyes to what I am missing! thank you for posting! Idaho is really very cool!
Very enjoyable videos. My great-great grandfather was an Idaho miner. Nice to get a sense about where and how he lived. Could you tell us about the music? Who the artist is or where we can find his or her recordings.
+TheVolosong We recorded these Ghost Towns in 2005. Thelma Drayer, who lives up the road from here played the piano music. She has a couple of CD's (Thelma Drayer at the Piano #1 "Alley Cat" and other favorites--47 Min.) (Thelma Drayer at the Piano #2 "Missouri Waltz" and other Favorites--43 Minutes). They are about $9.00 each (ppd).
I've been to all of them. Bonanza area there were many cabins and mills but they have beeb naturally deteriorated for the last few years, and that is sad.
Yes, I saw some photos of Bonanza from many years ago and it was a very interesting ghost town. Wish I could have videotaped it then, but this is all that's left today. Just the jail and whatever else you can find.
@@danholtvideo hi , thanks so much for this video , I have been looki,g for a pick of this cabin in delamar since it burned down in 1997 and my dad in law dale passed away shortly after, do you still have the photos and did you talk to him. Thanks
Hope you got my reply on your website. I interviewed Dale, your father-in-law in 1989. You can watch it on "Ghost Towns of Oregon #2C". It's on TH-cam. There is a 2A, 2B, and 2D also and since I didn't get his last name, just called him "Dale the Mountain Man" at the end of my videos. Maybe you could fill me in on a little more information and his last name. It sounds like you're into exploring as much as I am.
+Dan Holt i'll watch the other parts tomorrow. I really enjoyed this and it made my day. I imagined all that was going on at the time. it is not an easy thing to relay the whole experience of the day, but you have done that. so amazing. thank you! :)
There are just so many interesting things to see and I try to not move too slowly so as to be boring. All I can tell you is to pause the video while you look around.
Just a suggestion. When you are editing, determine what length of time is needed for each segment before putting them to lively music, otherwise you will find that you have some hurried scenes merely because the scene best the music, not the other way around which would be the ideal.
+HappyQuails Thanks. I usually get everything edited and then measure the length and then pick the music. I may not have the exact amount of music, so sometimes need to start the next sound before the music is finished.
Really? There's elk all over yo there but maybe it just want the time of year yet it looks like spring or summer in the vid and that's when they are shedding horns and sticking to themselves down low and up high
wow i'd love to see all those farmers in south africa that are being beaten tortured and killed for their land be given this land to farm on an feed the nation here
You just put one more thing on my bucket list, go through the ghost towns of Idaho!
Make sure you do it Julie!
Andy Okus, there's always next year!

So many neat old towns. This video is like history in a bottle...very enjoyable!
Thank you for the information I enjoyed it immensely!

Good music and great pictures past and present Thank you!♥️
I loved the piano playing !!!
I felt like I was in a saloon 🍻
I really enjoyed this video, Fantastic job,, Thank You
Nice pictures of the dredge !! Is it still there ? ... Got to check that out this summer 👍 - Nice video Thanks !
I believe so. I made this recording in 2005 but this is such an important historical piece of equipment that they have probably left it there even if there is no one to watch it.
Sublime Piano ! Wonderful video.
Thank you, I moved to Boise from California to be with my son a little over a year ago, I look forward to exploring Idaho's history, and geology. Beautiful!
I've built so much furniture and various other stuff with this beautiful wood .. nothing like it
I didn’t watch the entire video but are you saying you steal the wood from these places? If so I am very disappointed
Illegal to take or destroy historic structures over 50 years old without permits and permission from local city council/historic society’s.
I was born in Grangeville Idaho in 1952. We moved to Arizona in 1959. Sure miss that country. Live in Bisbee,Az now for 56 years. Love this video! Thanks!!
Gosh I'd need at least a year to thoroughly explore all these priceless places-and I'd need a metal detector to find countless relics!! 😊
Thank You For Sharing. Wonderful To See
+lilly waters Guess I'm a ghost town addict. Just love to visit these places and show them to others.
One aspect which intrigues me is wood joinery where iron nails, for example and not in great supply.
This place is beautiful. The type of place I love to tour. I think I am going to make plans to visit Idaho after seeing this. It really captures that old western look, and also is just pure beauty.

Sorry, I was thinking you were talking about Bonanza, Oregon. This Bonanza still has buildings standing.
Did not know there was Bonanza, OR.

I am so enjoying this video! and the music ! I am moving to Idaho. looking for some land ...thank you!
+5eilat5 Eliat, Glad you enjoyed this video (It has 3 parts). Idaho is a very interesting state. Enjoyed traveling through it.
+Dan Holt i'll watch the other parts tomorrow. I really enjoyed this and it made my day. I imagined all that was going on at the time. it is not an easy thing to relay the whole experience of the day, but you have done that. so amazing. thank you! :)
BEAUTIFUL SCENES .. I JUST WISHED VIDEOS WERE AT A SLOWER PACE .. SO YOU COULD GET A BETTER LOOK AT THINGS
There are just so many interesting things to see and I try to not move too slowly so as to be boring. All I can tell you is to pause the video while you look around.
You look like Harry Truman!
Curious Who Owns these Ghost Towns?? The States

That Piano need to be Tuned.
See any elk up in Stanley
?
No, Johnny; the most elk I've seen in all my journeys was up on the east ridge overlooking Troy, Oregon, but then, that's a "no hunting" zone.
Johnny Appleseed
there's elk around Teton county idaho!
How expensive is Idaho
Loretta, Idaho isn't expensive at all. About the same as Oregon. There are more millionaires in Idaho that about any other state per capita, I think.
@@danholtvideo Thanks.
I know where the thing in your thumbnail is it's in Wyoming
music is horrible, ugh
wow i'd love to see all those farmers in south africa that are being beaten tortured and killed for their land be given this land to farm on an feed the nation here
