13 Months Living In An Abandoned Ghost Town!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 เม.ย. 2021
- It's been 13 months up here at Cerro Gordo now! It's almost impossible for me to believe. I remember the craziest idea ever would be one year alone up here. Now, I'm a month past that and it's made me think more about my future up here and the projects I want to focus on.
This month I completed a few building renovation projects I've been wanting to clear up, took some epic explorations, and continued some ongoing projects.
I really, really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to check out this channel. It's made these past 13 months the best 13 months of my life. THANK YOU!

Thank you all so much!
WHO ELSE THINKS BRENT'S CAMERA WORK IS AWESOME ?
Seriously, his filming skills don't get enough credit!
Thank you! Trying to get better each week...
It’s looking very professional. I love it. I can’t wait till I get the opportunity to go see this place.
Fun to watch the progress. Feels like the birth of a re-birth.
The way he put this content together from the narration to the content and musical score was epic. Truly award winning. He needs to be recognized.
More attraction ideas for Cerro Gordo:
1. Invite relatives of the miners to tell the tales of their ancestors
2. Get a school for film makers to make a bunch of amateur western short films in the mining town and have a premiere and award show of the films in the theatre
3. Run a drone filming workshop and film the land
Great ideas! Thumbs up.
two is a great idea! i'd love to see that
3. Get running water before 1 above
Wow. Very talented ideas.
WOW! You gave him some EXCELLENT IDEAS!!!👍😀😁😇 I LOVE. WHEN I read comments and can just feel the Kind 💕 hearts...in people like you!😁👍❤
Johnny is as nimble as a mountain goat, he always runs up the slopes so fast. Please name the next goat you adopt after him! :D
Just found out last week my great great grandfather came from Hungary and mined in Pennsylvania. Died in a collapse with 3 other Hungarians. I knew I had miners in my family, but not to that extent! My grandfather built off his grandfather and
rose to Vice President of US Steel in Pittsburgh back in the 80s and early 90s. The history of your town has led me to look into more of my history personally!
Lindsey great story and adds so much as you noted to Brent's story. Both of you are great inspirations to others as many families have great stories of immigration and how they arrived to these lands.
Brent, have you made yourself Mayor/Sherriff yet? I think you would win the vote from the residents if you stood!
Yes, with a big Cerro Gordo Silver Sherriff Star! Some forge smith person should make it happen. :)
He is owner and Mayor of Cerro Gordo hands down.
@@stephanieraebel8160 IIRC he might still need an election to become Mayor or Sheriff, so he needs to organise a poll of the residents.
He's got to respect democracy. He could do it before breakfast! lol!
Bret does have the goats (very entertaining) and cats (very playful). So he's not totally alone. Perhaps if he rescues a dog, he can be the mayor & Brent the Sheriff!
He needs a town drunk too, a resounding combination to be sure!
The "Crazy Mountain Hermit Man" look keeps evolving.
@Anna omg... its him
@@darkwingduck7247 Pssst, "she" is just a link spammer as Brent has left links permitted in comments. "she" has spammed a load of the comments here with the same thing.
Report, report, report.
@@juststeve5542 Thank you for letting me know! I reported.
Can't argue this one. Maybe I can get a haircut in the next 13 months haha
Yeah, he is beginning to look wild and wooly.
Brent, the only person in history to buy an abandoned mining town and build a mini-golf course in one of the old mines. I love it!
likely because every other mini golf business owner knew building a mini golf coarse in a mine is a lawsuit waiting to happen. just wait till lil timmy walks in to take his shot and 80 tons of stone come crashing down on top of him, or maybe he steps on a random half buried stick of dynamite that was missed in the cleanup process... or maybe he accidentally slips into a 300 foot deep hole... or maybe he gets bitten by a rattlesnake that happens to live in the mine which i hear is pretty common. way too many horrible possibilities when dealing with mines, this is why quite literally no one aside from miners makes a business out of them.
@@Smokey420Greenleaf I heard of a kid named Tommy Nokker, he use to tap his golf club 3 times before knocking the ball into the hidden dynamite at the end of the tunnel.
That was a really cool idea! Maybe add more to it later? Guests can enjoy 18 hole mini golf while they enjoy their stay at the American Hotel.
420 dab time
@@Smokey420Greenleaf😂😂
such a happy and passionate man. this is what i call a rich man
"The mine that built the town will quite literally build the town again" There's something poetically beautiful about those words. These videos are always an inspirational highlight for me.
He’s always contemplating and I love it!
The amount you've achieved in 13 months and I haven't finished decorating my bathroom in the same time
🤣
LOLOL
Hahahahahaha, I'm on day three stripping a Boston rocker.
I seriously can't wait too see people come and stay here. This town is so interesting and definitely deserves to be saved
Honestly
Good day Brent; Found this, this morning and thought of you
“I go to nature to be soothed and healed,
and to have my senses put in order. ~ John Burroughs
Brent I'm not sure what the threat of wildfire is up there in the high desert but maybe getting some sort of old fire truck or truck with a tank, and pump just in case. I can imagine you wouldn't be a man to evacuate so having some sort of plan could hopefully save the town. I've heard this is going to be the worst California wildfire season in modern history. At a minimum create some defensible space around each structure. Also if a campfire or anything else were to get out of control you could handle it before it spreads.
Good call. You can never be too prepared, specially with buildings made out of wood that have dried in the sun for decades. Would be a great idea to clear all the brush around as far as possible for the fire season. When spring comes. Have the goats 🐐 eat the surrounding vegetation to prepare for next years fire season.
Good idea, but given the age of the cabins and things I guess it hasn't been a problem in the last 100 years, however, that's not to say it won't be, and that being prepared for it is a bad idea.
It’s on the list
He mentions it in an earlier video
I imagine considering what happened a few months back at Cerro Gordo, Brent is very aware of and rightfully paranoid about fire safety.
The Death Valley side of the Owens Valley isn't as wildfire prone as the Sierra side. There's less fuel and no chaparral. The high desert doesn't burn as easily as the chaparral mountain environment.
Who else greatly appreciates Brent giving us a wonderful mini-vacation? My mood was turned around in 30 minutes.
I feel like a little piece of me is camped out there because of these awesome videos.
Had my Dad still been around, your channel would be his favorite. His uncle owned gold and silver mines in Nevada and he and my youngest brother, Danny, had a couple of mining claims in the Gardnerville/Minden, NV area. He always seemed to be happiest when he was researching the next mine that he and Danny would repel into. Since I have watched everyone of your videos, apparently some of his love of old mines has rubbed off on me. Be save and keep the videos coming!
His youthful energy is infectious!
can we just take a minute to apriciate HOW FORKING GOOD HIS VIDEOS ARE EDITED!?!? SOOOOOOOO MUUUCH BEA-UTY! Agree?
Totally agree, I have said that many times and will repeat: It is a joy, entertaining to watch, dreaming of a visit or just dreaming (I watch on a relatively big screen.)
I mention this nearly every time i comment... it's just perfect!
And the sound is great. A lot of channels you have to strain to hear.
Like I've always said, this is one of the best TH-cam vlogs based on the subject matter, the quality narration, the great video quality and the great editing. An entertaining and fascinating educational history lesson in each video.
I just commented about this. Yeah, I wonder if it is him or a team. Making all that footage and editing it all in a week sounds tough. Whoever it is, they're doing great work!
as a professional in the entertainment industry. your storytelling is phenomenal. your structure of the storyline is well done. your scripting of the narrations are great. its amazing you do this all on your own. ive shot worse things with a whole crew that played on discovery.
Thank you so much!
@@GhostTownLiving your welcome, I have been watching from the first one, since I have been enthralled with Cerro Gordo since I was a kid. I grew up in Bishop, and even though I live in LA, I still travel the eastern sierras with my family on a regular basis, its our favorite part of California and likely one of the most beautiful parts of the country. So I know that area well, and through my ghost town journeys all over the back side of the mountains (Keeler, panamint, masonic, etc), Cerro Gordo has always been the Unicorn I have never been able to get to becuase its always been private property. so I can't wait for you to open that place up. By the way, the reason the drone keeps crashing, is likely becuase your model drone doesnt have lateral sensors :) some do, some don't, based on how much you crash that thing, you should get one that does. :)
Really? it seems overwrought. We get it, Cerro Gordo, national treasure, historic landmark, we should all be enthralled. In truth, there is little that is left, and what is is from the last century and barely over 100 years old. He is obviously aware of this, and spends a lot on repetitive embellishment. But, I don't think he needs to do this, it interesting enough with out it.
If you read this Brent, keep doing what you do.
@@noleftturnunstoned I have only been here for a few weeks and was glad that this information was still told after a year. not everyone is there right from the start, or is maybe stumbling across one of the videos by accident, without having an overview of who he is and what Cerro Gordo was, you don't even know what's going on. So this will help new viewers that will come in the future too, to get to know all of this, we should appreciate this and hope a lot more people will come here and support him :)
@@noleftturnunstoned I agree. It’s really repetitive watching this in a chronological playlist like I am, from the very beginning until now as a new viewer. It’s annoying. But certainly I’d rather have this than not.
I can sleep better at night knowing there's a VHS copy of the 1999 cinema masterpiece "The Mummy" in Cerro Gordo.
Oh, Brent! My God! The music and the drone footage at the end of this video lifted me right up to the top of those majestic mountains. Unbelievable goosebumps! Thank you so much for sharing your enormous talent with us. You are truly gifted!
I always appreciate that you keep in mind that this might be someone's first video they've ever seen of yours. It always feels so welcoming, even for those of us who've been here since the first month.
I appreciate that! I try to balance people coming for first time vs a while now. Thank you for sticking with it!
@@GhostTownLiving I came in at the first episode right after the hotel burned down. Your raw emotions clutched my heart, and made me cry. It made me feel, what if the Manor (a living history museum where I volunteer), burned down. Then, just two months later, we lost the Manor anyway, through greed, theft, and lies. At least it's still standing though, but unfortunately the new owner cut down the Native-American Signal Tree. :'( :'( :'(
Every week I come looking for Levis Jeans, and I will continue returning until he finds them.
Whats the thing with thise Jeans?
I imagine an old rotten ppice of clothing?
Lol they are just such great jeans
@@yaykruser They are part of mining history, They found quite a few recently in one mine, all showing different designs, and they show the years they were made. The mine owners owned the jeans, and the workers would change into them when working, then change back to normal life clothing... some worth serious money too!
And I appreciate that. I too, will continue until I find some!
I want to sneak up there late at night and hide an old pair of 501s in a tunnel.
Except:
- He'd hear me
- I couldn't go up there without a few beers and to shake his hand!
- Modern 501s are different.
- I live in the UK!
Someone needs to make a movie about this place with your voice as the narrator.
I see you there, 92 years old and always happy to be there. What a gorgeous life!
I love that Brent is looking more and more like a wild prospector.
His orange hair and beard add a flair.
Congrats... you brought LIFE back in Cerro Gordo... goats roaming the fields, working in the mines, converting them to a minigolf, rebuilding the village... you won't leave that place no more mate, the "ghost" approves you and your works and is your friend now... What a once in a lifetime adventure...
Thank you! Agreed, it is quite the adventure.
@@GhostTownLiving Yeah he's gotta good point, the town's accepted ya. You'll always be around cerro gordo, when a place picks you, you can never get away haha.
@@GhostTownLiving Be careful a mountain lion doesn't take a liking to your mischievous goats.
@@Mayhemspent or a rattlesnake.
This guy took a social distancing idea to a whole new level
Shut up
You took original comments to a whole new level 😜
Lol
It’s interesting it’s been months since I’ve checked out your channel. TH-cam kept suggesting this video to me at
least 5 times today and man I’m glad I checked it out. You seem like you’re absolutely glowing with excitement and joy. Keep it up man, you’ve built something special between this town, the channel, and your personality. You were way more seemingly IMO shy when I first saw you on this channel and now you’ve blossomed
Thanks! Glad you checked it out
A very subtle "thank you for subscribing" at the end. Doesn't ask for patreon sub, no BS sponsor, doesn't ask for us to click in like button. Much respect.
Thanks! I like to keep it subtle. I don't like the pressuring
I wouldn't mind compensating Brent for his work. I understand he probably gets some ad revenue but I feel like contributing to the building of cerro gordo for him and future custodians would be very neat. He can definitely rake in some money once covid chills out with tourism but getting the money now would help build it faster. I would see Brent more likely to make merch or have a patreon for cat/goat livestreams or something, a means where we feel we are gaining something rather than a third party.
@@MissRedheadRapunzel he does have that. Check out the various ways to help under the video.
@@MissRedheadRapunzel he probably makes more than you do with his channel.
@@akau1340 dude I am on minimum wage, a lot of people make more than me
The shot with you driving past the Joshua trees on your dirt bike is epic! 💜
Thanks! I love it back in that part of the land
Brent I have been so sick this past week, and this video put a smile on my face. I appreciate your content so much :)
Wow, what a likable and interesting guy! He's living the dream - good luck Brent!
The day Brent finds his Levi jeans I will forever refer to it as 'Levi Jeans' day.
Im down too
I’ll do it as well
It will have to become a Cerro Gordo town holiday!
And we’ll all celebrate it each year!
Hopefully he'll find um more than once. 🤞😃👍
13 months later, and the amount you have saved Cerro Gordo is astonishing. Please continue the work you do.
We all are so happy for you, and appreciate what you do for us.
Thank you! I'll keep going. I appreciate the note.
@@GhostTownLiving we appreciate you
@@c1w2e3g4n5e6r I second that!
I'm getting interstellar vibes with the outro. I've been watching Ghost Town Living everyday for a week now and I'm really loving everything so far.
You're making your mark Mr. Underwood. Keep up the good work, we all appreciate it.
Brent is a ghost town necromancer. Hes literally taking a dead abandoned town and rebuilding it from the bones of it that were left in the dust.
Brent has REALLY big plans that he needs help with. me too! I'm IN! Bring water? Check. Gasoline? Check.
A Messiah of his own religion
I’m only 3-4 hours away and down to help him frame and do electrical
When you're sat in dark depressing East London you won't believe how much I look forward to watching your show on a Saturday night! I hope one day to see it for myself!! Thanks!!
I feel for you, brother. It is possible to get some land for yourself if you want it bad enough
@@mikek2474 that's the dream! The only problem is in England the land is so expensive and it's all owned by corrupt rich people 🤷♂️ the land of the free is where my hearts at.👍🏻a lot more so before November last year anyway. 🤔
@@dirkdiggler0372 we'd welcome you. Plenty of affordable land out here
Thank you! Hope you can come over and visit sometime.
@@chris1960 they make for a great holiday, you get to see the countryside from a really different perspective! Having a pub every couple of miles by the river helps 😉
It has been truly amazing watching you grow. You moved here the same time my husband and I became homeless in a tent youve been our inspiration
I'm a 65 year old woman and wish I was 30 years old. What a cool adventure you are living will pray that God sends you a companion that understands and wants to heyou with your dreams.
Can't wait to stay in the miner's cabin and wake up to a goat staring at me through the window.
Gost will say :: ur lazy as heck man I have travels the world in seconds dude
He needs a cabin with a goat door. I’d rent that cabin.
Have you ever seen Black Side Mountain
“Time in nature is not a nice to have, it’s a must have” - My favorite quote of 2021.
PS you’re content helped me decide to finally hit the road and explore this beautiful country. I have been on the road for 7 weeks now. Cheer friend.
those last few sentences of the video friggin hit hard!! good luck in your travels amigo!
Thanks brother
I’ve never been to America, but when his hotel is up and running I want to come and visit from the UK. Never seen such an awesome place and such a super guy whose dedication to his project is an absolute inspiration. I don’t necessarily want to visit anywhere else but this place and THOSE VIEWS! A bit different from the Lake District here (which is also beautiful). Everything is smaller on our island and less distances to travel. It’s on my list to save up and visit the US for sure before I kick the proverbial bucket.
Brent, cats will head - butt you when they want to show you they trust you. They purr to calm you down, and they rub against you and knead you to imprint their scent on you to say you are part of the clan. Just a heads-up. If they bring you mice they think you are their child or peer and want to teach you to hunt. The older they get, the more they will become independent and only see you when they are missing you or want treats. I have a feeling your cats will ALWAYS want to be near you because they love you.
Honestly your the highlight of my weekend.
X2
I in the same from Scotland
I agree as well.
Thank you so much! It's the highlight of my week to be here and share it with everyone...
Not gonna lie, the longer hair makes you look like a mad scientist 😂
Kinda how I feel these days haha
How about building a barbers shop, get some clippers and shave it all off in there 👍🏻
he looks like a sesame street muppet but I still wanna know what's next hahaha
A Manbun would look great on you.
Thanks Brent. After this past year, I was feeling pretty uninspired. Finding your channel has really motivated me. I can't sit around anymore being worried about the rona. Time to knock the dust off and get busy living.
Good to see the pioneer spirit is still alive and kicking in 2021 .
In 100+ years when someone is doing the same thing you’re doing they are gonna be super confused with the mini golf cours in a cave 😂
forreal hahaha they probably go into the mines expecting dynamite boxes and old crap but then they find a fucking golf course lmao. can totally imagine their "why the fuck" faces.
Mini golf courses and drones everywhere. Lol.
But, oh what fun!
Reminded me of when I worked at a mini golf course back in the 80's that started in a fake mine shaft with two holes underground before you finished above, oddly enough it was called "The Mine Shaft".
TH-cam will have been archived and still available to everyone, exactly like our literature has been for centuries. they'll probably have known all about it before they even show up.
Your joy is showing all over your face! ❤️ We all need to find our own ‘Cerro Gordo’.
Brent is so awesome! I love the vision he has for this beautiful place of American history. I would absolutely love to stay a few days and explore and relive all this history.
Best filming, editing, music and last but the best; the narrating of a "movie of a man, who has found what the rest of us, have been looking for!"
What a WOW-Moment!
Just WOW...
Wow...
I'm in complete awe, not only for the man you are, the adventures you have and this channel..... but also for the beauty that surrounds you, the way it captivates you and guides you on your path. You are a very lucky man, but also, the wilderness that surrounds you is lucky to have a man like you as its caretaker. Hats off to you Brent!! Love this channel!!
i never thought i’d be so excited by cement, can’t wait to finally see the hotel come back
Same!
me too...ha...I would even like to come watch it dry..lol
I agree. It was so sad to see the beautiful hotel burn to to ground. Cant wait to see how it will be done and how he uses the materials he has around him. AMAZING!!!
@@chaztiz8839 I know, me too! It would be far more fun than watching paint dry! LOL
When are you pouring the pad? I’m a mason I would be soo happy to be a part of pouring that foundation. I was raised in Joshua Tree my love of the desert is never ending; let alone being a part of such a cool project.
I so enjoy watching all of Brent’s videos!!
Dude you have some serious cinematography skills! If you make a film about the whole project like this, you can feature it in some of those outdoor film tour festivals for sure!
Totally agree!!!!!
@@lotharschiese8559 that's what I was thinking!
Brent’s camera work has increased so much over the year. The use of music has added so much depth. Amazing work.
Look who is getting to be famous. You deserve all the attention for keeping us entertained throughout this pandemic. You are a bright light in these dark day's.
Wow all the comments about the videography... you weren’t kidding. The last shots in fast forward with the music playing is definitely a piece of art. I literally found this TH-cam channel yesterday and got stuck watching it because I couldn’t get myself to click away because of the camerawork, narration and content. Great work Brent! I’ll be watching until I see all of the videos.
"And I love that!" Brett's awesome new catchphrase
And I love that!
Dibs on a t-shirt haha
The sheer beauty of Cerro Gordo is overwhelming. It is breathtaking and has so many interesting differences. That cliff is spectacular, the Joshua trees are amazing, and the views are just unbelievable. I won't ever get to make those hikes, and so deeply appreciate you taking us along. You sharing the beauty of your surroundings means everything to me.
I am so glad you are looking towards finding more balance. Play is important and your health is imperative. Take good care of yourself as you pursue adventure and your passion.
Nothing like the great outdoors. I try to spend as much time out in nature as I can. Thanks for sharing Brent
at 13:44 when he put the square nail back into the hole. gotta love it.
I think Brent has become a modern day Indiana Jones "Those jeans belong in a museum!!"
🤣🤣🤣🙌🙌
I thought the same thing! 😆
Johnny is literally the best friend that everyone needs if he started a TH-cam channel where he only has a GoPro on filming his adventure with Brent that would be some of the best content!
My wife and I camped out up there just over the road out of site from the town on Thanksgiving a few years ago. 15 degrees and had a fine time exploring the town with Robert giving us a fine tour as well
No ferris wheels on the mini golf course. Definitely theme it with the mine. There is a lot of cool possibilities. Say like the cart tram system. mine carts, water wheels (no water there but oh well. old mini buildings, mini mine tunnels, old west bar doors etc.
13 months in and your shows have become productions. Absolutely spectacular ending.
Camera editing drone narration all of it superb...
In just over a year look 👀 what you have accomplished we are all very honoured to be a part of this ... thank you 🙏 Brent & good luck in all future projects.....
It's crazy to watch this video now. I subscribed back when the first couple of videos were posted and there were less than a 1000 subs and now it's almost at 1 million!
Thanks for following along!
The mountain sights are indeed tremenous (SP)!!!! I used to visit Colorado alot when I was younger, and I would get overwhelmed with the scenery
Brent you are the desert version of Dick Prenneke Alone in The Wilderness. Dick went to Alaska when he was 52 years old built a log cabin and lived off the land for 30 years. You are doing something that a lot of us would like to do but life gets in the way. Maybe there will be a day when I can stay in your hotel. Thanks Dennis
This video made me homesick, I grew up in the deserts of SoCal even visited Cerro Gordo when I was seven. I live in North Carolina now and would do anything to be back in the Mojave, its the most beautiful place in the world, and the sense of freedom is amazing
Hey fatty i lived in yosemite for 33 years moms from victorville i now live in Asheville NC
I grew up between the Valley and the Mojave. My dad had me good and scared of those abandoned mines on Angeles Forest Hwy! Used to go exploring in Red Rock State Park and got stoned more times than I care to count at Vasquez Rocks. The number of abandoned buildings and mines in the Mojave area is pretty nuts. I live in South Texas now, but my obsession with the brothels in the ghost towns set me on to finish my PhD as an adult.
Wow Brent I am so happy for you! Yes, being in nature causes us to be in the moment! So often we in our heads either fantasizing about the future or judging the past. There is nothing better than being in the now, that's all any of us really have anyway. I am very impressed by what you are accomplishing! Blown away!! You have definitely found your happy place and it is a real pleasure to be invited on your journey. Thank you for sharing!!
That Outro was monumental. Definitely the best one yet!
Every time Brent exclaims "HELLO!" I immediately exclaim "HELLO BRENT" back and I will never stop.
HELLO!
@@GhostTownLiving she didnt reply? she's lying. haha😂😭
@@GhostTownLiving HELLO BRENT!
@@ItsJimdevera I didn’t even click that this would be what I should do. My brain, I swear lol.
Big hello from northern Ireland 💚!!🤗
You forgot that lime is one of the ingredients in cement. What a cool project, I wish I wasn't paralyzed, I would love to come out, and help you guys. I have a background in construction, and I love riding dirt bikes, hiking and exploring, and golfing, and I would love to live the simple life in the desert mountains! I'm jealous it looks like a lot of fun, good luck, and happy trails!
Awesome ending.. it gave me goosebumps.. I lived on the Mojave in AZ for 4 yrs.. and it truly made me miss the desert..
For "Lola's" you'll need a sign that says "It's been a business doing pleasure with you!"
Brent you can maybe attach cameras to the goats and capture the footage on where do they wander around the property. It could be good footage because goats are good mountaineers.
I used to want to add a camera to my cat. No telling what animals get into. 👍🏻
theres a show called "Animals with Cameras" I highly recommend it to you, they custom fit and make cameras for each animal since its kinda hard to keep them on. but the footage is sooo cool
I love the re use of the old mine waste to make the new concrete for the Hotel. great work!
When i was a kid my dad set up a vacation where we drove to Arizona. We stoped for a day or two in several sights. One of them was a ghost town with a small hotel. Three days we spent there. I was four then. Im 51 now. I still remember walking around to the buildings. Looking inside at all the daily items placed. Get that hotel built my dude. I want my kids to have the same experience. Hopefully it will be reasonably priced.
Someone should make a satellite image of the property every month so we can in the future see how much it grew!
you keep getting better at edits, this ones ending was great
I appreciate that!
I absolutely love your enthusiasm, love of history, and love for your town!
A man with a dream and an audience. Thank you for taking us along the journey. I've been watching you since june last year and I love every second of it.
I think his whole outlook, style, storytelling, poetry & passion.. documentation, awe-envoking soundtracks and yeah his camera work, are nothing short of spectacular!
If he doesn't make 1 million subs in the next month, I'm going on a Social Media campaign. More humans need to experience his experiences!
Brent is the most amazing cinematographer and story teller. If TH-cam gave awards, he would win. Hands down👍🏻🙂
Thank you for all you do. I was sure I wanted to make a pilgrimage prior to this video, but that off road ride has confirmed that visiting Cerro Gordo belongs on my bucket list. My Harley will not make it, but I have been wanting a dirt bike, so now my 2021 goal is to get the bike, and then make plans to head out of LA when you are ready for overnight visitors. You are doing an incredible job, surely the souls of the men and women who called Cerro Gordo home back in the day are watching and appreciate your appreciation of the history of this area. So exciting to watch the transformation.
Hi Brent ! 😃 Thank you for again an awesome video ! As always interesting, funny, beauuuuuuutiful, and cozy 🥰
A mini golf into a mine ! Why not ! You have really so uniques ideas !! 😄😄
A lot of progress in building + the solution for the concrete is in big progress too = bravo !!! 👍🏻😀
The fonction « track the drone who did crash » seems to be a must have, when you have a drone and use it in such landscape 🤣🤣
Take care and enjoy ! 😊
Bisous from France 🇫🇷😘
My favourite channel.
same
Same hate waiting 1 hole week for next 1
Thank you!
Me too
I've been watching you evolve into "the crazy old man up in the mountains" since your truck got stuck your first day up here, keep it up!
"Goats where ya going"
Goats, "mind ya buisness Brent, we free rangin now!"
Your buddy with the concrete truck has a pretty rare car on his hands. That Nissan Pulsar NX with the Sportbak attachment is extremely unusual. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a call from someone restoring/building one after this video. They aren't crazy popular, but the people who love them really love them.
I just love it that using that old wood to rebuild the buildings, also instantly clears up the town as well. Less rubble and stuff.
I'm here once again...can't get enough of your shows.
I am so engrossed in every video that you make of Cerro Gordo. I would love to come and see all the improvements you have made on this town. It sounds so amazing. Keep up the good work.
I worked at a golf course as a cart boy when I was in high school. The best part about that job was all the leftover beer, cigars, and more illicit substances golfers would leave on the carts. At the end of a weekend shift I'd usually walk out of there with a whole case of cold beer.
