Correct they are rugged and the roads only forest roads that are fitt and bumpy but we like it that way cause then there are less people and it’s quiet no noisy stereo garbage. There are small communities of cabins up there and we are close knot and look out for each other and there sometim a are a bear last summer nit thus recent one ttrre was one up near our cabin and also one in Prescott valley in the trash dumpsters. There is a little bit of pages road but then it turns into mikes of dirt road.
The area around crown king has parts of wilderness area which no one can file a claim on,it’s possible that ore body is still out there.
Great stories! My first guess is that the most probable way a single person could locate something like that was he stumbled onto some old Spanish milling sites or something.
You say it like your from there…Prescittš
(Iām not criticizing you at all, you seem like a person who would want to do āgood.ā) It pains me to hear people refer to āThe First Peopleā as āIndians or Native Americans.ā Although I have no idea if they actually were the āfirstā people here or not, but maybe we should just refer to them as āNatives.ā The Natives only make up about 1.3% of the current American population, which is very sad. They are still being oppressed today. On a better note, your videos are very interesting, and provide me with a short break from this awful reality of Peaceful Slavery that we are currently living in. ā Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, FRA (āFRAā, meaning āThe Failed Republic Of Americaā)
Iām not criticizing you at all, you seem like you also want to do āgoodā but this comment is completely out of touch. You tell him to correct how he addresses Native Americans because it pains YOU. You then say he should use the term āfirst peopleā. Then you say well you donāt know if they were the first people so he should use the term ānativeā. I actually took the time to read multiple sources on what is preferable and accepted and Native American is across the board the best option. Which is the term he used lol. Not to mention it include Native which is what you finally decided was ok and accurate to you. Someone that isnāt Native American. I hope you understand how ridiculous this is. Read it again. Native Americans i assure you do not need or more importantly want you correcting people about what they prefer to be called.
Also every land owner in these mountains have the rights to their mines so anyone who goes in to try to dig better not or they will be prosecuted plus it’s too dangerous cam fall in and most have no access are deep under lots of land and raues too much money to get it not worth it for those of us who don’t have the money to do it.
Do you know about the Black lode mine in the Box adshaws in AZ. Am inyet sted in its history.
Good stories pal keep em coming
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK LIL BRO CUŹ WEEEEE LOVES EMMMMM šššš
There are lots of filled inine hol s all over those mountain md ours included . There is gold but it would take millions of days listen to get it and it would ruin the land and make it harder to get into places for those who have that. Not worth it if you don’t have money for that and we don’t want our land ruined or access cut.
My backyard!
Can you recommend you tube sites or channels related to the Black life mine in the Bradshaw’s my fans cabin is on it or a part of that old mining site interested in the history of it thanks Jamie.
