25 years ago, my wife and I were exploring this site. while we were there, we met a woman who was walking around. come to find out she used to live there. her father was an executive of the mine. she explained what each building was used for. she described the employee dining area, kitchen, where the tool building was located. one interesting thing was a huge wooden water tank above the complex. she used to swim in the tank. this mine is very remote and is only accessible mid-summer and early fall. the dirt road in is long and narrow I have spent a lot of time there exploring and fishing. We also hunted big game there. The most interesting route there is off the Banks Lowman Rd. the road is very steep, rough and narrow. there are magnificent views from the top of Scott Mountain about 1/2 way to the mine. the fastest route is to go to the Landmark intersection above Warm Lake 26 miles East of Cascade Idaho turn right dirt road is in good condition and can be driven faster. Deadwood reservoir is stunningly beautiful. there is a steep emergency airstrip that would take an experienced pilot to land there.
Hello Steve and Andrea nice seeing the stamp mill up right .This adventure has alot of what ifs more then most. Nice to see a comment about a couple that talked to someone that lived there way back nice explore and to see Dave the new Daddy with a son by now 🙏😀 take care all ⛏️🇺🇸😀
I've visited this mine site a couple of times in the past. The last time we were there the safe door was till on and not cut. That was about 10 years ago. Kind of cool to see a TH-cam video of a place I've been too!
Another interesting find and explore! I think the room where you looked out the window from high up was a dining room. It had a passthrough from the kitchen and cupboards for dishes and cutlery (15:39). Determining the purpose of a building can be a challenge at times since quite often their use changes over time leaving mixed clues to what it once was. There is a building across the street from me that was once a stable for the neighborhood horses and buggies and had been converted to an autobody shop and auto parts store when I moved in, but has since been converted to real estate offices and apartments. Now that they have sold all their condos ... it sits empty waiting on it next use. Mines and mining towns often had the same thing happening ... just at a much faster rate!
WOW, what a place! You both come up with some very plausible explanations as to what the structures were.🎉 You've learned to look for clues.👏🏻 The stillness of these places must be overwhelming, at times. When you describe the activity that once went on there, compared to the present decay... 😔 Thank you so much Andrea and Steven. This was so interesting. Dave is topnotch, just like both of you. 🏚☘️🌾🏚☀️💛👏🏻👏🏻
What an amazing place. So unusual the crazy building layout. The trees are so pretty, and the stream and waterfall are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and your family. Stay safe on your travels and be extra careful in those abandon builds. I will see you on your next adventure. 🥰👍👍👍👍👍(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
Question : Are you using a different camera as the last few videos have not been really crisp as in Hi Def. I went back a few vids and they were fine. Keep up the good work and thanks for all that you do.
Me thinks I'm going to look for some history on this one. Incredible setup, views. Almost modern. Electricity,plumbing. Like it was built in the 20's or 30's. That one place could have been the mine owners house. Big sweeping views. Give me some homework. A lot of mines got shut down during the war. Great job. Y'all are always impressing me. Till next week. Peace.😊

@@kenfarmer4938 wow. Thanks for the info Ken. So were we right about the large building?
Really awsome old place love the ending with the water fall
That place has been known to be haunted. But what a great exploration. Still an interesting place 😊 thanks for sharing
@@tinadelwiche416 didn’t hear or see anything spooky but I’m sure they were there watching and listening

@@normstephens8354 that is so true Norm. Plus they repurpose things.
Sounds feasible about kitchen and dining room.
I'll take that "water feature" in my backyard, please! Just some really cool old buildings, and beautiful scenery. Thanks for bringing us along!!
@@lesleyrobbins1137 you’re welcome Lesley. Thanks for joining us
Amazing location, but views somewhat curtailed by smoke from distant forest fires. But what an impressive waterfall ! Thanks for the video guys.

@@roseapple8786 certainly was an interesting explore Rose. Glad you enjoyed it and see you next Tuesday
... and the mine did come with a nice outdoor cold water shower! :-)
@@pixelpeter3883 🤣
Always enjoy your videos. Very interesting. I appreciate you two.
@@highdesertbill thank you Bill
What a massive building you discovered. This by far has to be the biggest one you found.
Question : Are you using a different camera as the last few videos have not been really crisp as in Hi Def. I went back a few vids and they were fine. Keep up the good work and thanks for all that you do.
@@paulp1530 no Paul. Same iPhones. They are getting old now and we desperately need to upgrade our video equipment. Need help with the funds though
This must have been so beautiful in its day. Great video. Thanks guys
Definitely 👍

@@richardbeee as always Richard thank you for your kind words and support
Three some explorers. Quite a bldg. up there on the cliff.
Thank you ❤
Cool old bank vault, concrete walls and double vault doors. Shelves for the bags of gold and payroll cash.
@@coledrevenj it was pretty neat to see.
All old mines are haunted. You two are experienced mine explorers.
