Exploring An Abandoned Secret Mining Camp – Nevada
Exploring An Abandoned Secret Mining Camp – Nevada
Out in the endless hills of abandoned mine shafts, shacks and bygone relics of Nevada, we were taken somewhere incredible. A well-preserved mining camp, with a complete home, a shed full of bunks and old newspapers, out-houses, a tourist mine entrance as well as a few actual mines and workshop.
The sheer amount of items left behind on the property meant this was a decent size operation, and they put in a lot of time and effort into this place.
The fact that it is still standing and items haven’t been destroyed is a testament to how far out this place is, and very few people know about it.
These places need to be preserved and are a great learning experience. It is an opportunity to see how people in the past made everyday items into incredibly innovative tools, making life a little more comfortable in the arid desert.
Due to continuous vandalism, we are not giving out the name or location of this homestead.

"Bubble Up is a lemon-lime soft drink brand created in 1919, by Sweet Valley Products Co. of Sandusky, Ohio. It is now manufactured by the Dad’s Root Beer Company, LLC and owned by Hedinger Brands, LLC for the United States, Canada…" (Wikipedia)
You ought to research Bubble-Up because I can only copy/paste so much here.
When I was a young boy my older siblings and me would gather up whatever change we could however we could do it and purchase a package of coffee cakes and a bottle of Bubble-Up and slpit it up between four of us. That often was our daily meal as we lived in poverty. Bubble-Up was our "go to" beverage when I was young.
As an aside, two of us are military veterans with va compensation, one earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Business, Another earned a Master’s Degree in Global Business Management, one was married a career military man and stayed together over 40 years until he passed on, another girl retired from a large medical company, and has worked elsewhere since. My oldest brother moved away when I was real young, earned several PHd’s, spoke seven languages fluently, and taught mostly in Europe. He lays to rest in the Tombstone Cemetary.
Aside of military service which can get brutal at times, we all worked and earned our own way without government help. Our "story" elucidates that anyone who applies themself including poverty stricken children can rise from the ashes and become at the very least, productive wage earning members of society. People must stop with notion that taxpayers (government) owes them ANYthing.
Please forgive me for veering from your exploration video, but the Bubble-Up thing brought back memories of a life the SPCA would frown on if it were a dog or cat going through such life. I was deployed to a country where people ate cats and dogs! This story might make at least one person re-think priorities.
Please forgive me for veering off point, I truly enjoy the videos of a country I served, and continue to serve in law enforcement. Your videos show people what was here before them, and for some people, the videos show was here while they lived in the "comforts" of the big city.
Travel safe.
I can understand that.
Yeah I saw another YouTuber do this place sometime back.
What were they mining?
Nice explore…i was born in 71
If you’re interested in the history of old claims, either go to the nearest BLM or county office & ask for ‘Master Title Plat’ showing claims. Or, often the info is on internet. See when claim was last active, ownership…
Thanks!
I wonder what thos tags on the door frame were for? Gramma Candy
Like this place, house close to the mine. Not far from the job
Boring. You’re fired
so much trash left out there, that’s bad.
You’ve gotta wonder how many years they worked these mines and if they ever found any gold. When and why did they abandon it? Could the people still be found? Was this a legal mine on a claim? It seems too complicated for it not to have been legal. I guess the thing that bothers me is that they left all of the trash and junk behind with no apparent effort to clean it up. The Earth is not a garbage dump for humanity!
Lot got done with no TV or phone
Where is this? I won’t destroy it … I live near Gold Hill NV
Please have the Mrs behind the camera when filming the inside the cave.
I know this is old but you guys should share the location with a channel called “abandons and forgotten places” he explores abandoned mines
Здесь история остановился. Открыватели попали истории вот какие люди ничего не дотронулись. Это же банках спирт.
Good video thank you keep up the great videos

You know its very strange that its abandoned. I mean how many hills surround that single location miles around !!? And yet we are supposed to believe that all of the Gold is gone !! There are hills stretching hundreds of miles in either direction yet no more gold to be found, nothing to see here ? Sumtin isn’t right with this picture. The government is not allowing claims in those areas and, no doubt, have declared the area freakin federal park lands or something to stop the mining in any region they want. Our dictatorship government, has to be stopped because the US is only 250 years old and mining has been stopped ??? Egypt mined gold for 15,000 years and so did China so what’s with no more mining in the US ?? Strange ! The gold obviously is no where gone when only a fraction of the thousands of hills in the area have never been mined at all !?
I’d like to know where they obtained water. Certainly would be a major limitation of living there.
How much did you charge that British lady for the tour?
Very hard to resist those bottles but they’re only from the 70s so probably not all that grand still a cool find I wish people wouldn’t vandalize so you could share the location seeing it on video is cool but to step into that has to be way cooler
You’re in mining country with no flashlight. Doh!
Excellent video
Amazing place! We call it HeeBee JeeBee’s because our friend who first told us about it said it gave him those. It has been found and ravaged since our first visit.
i am always fasinated by remote, abandoned and aloof locations…i could sense the pulsating peace in those places….your video is superb and you took me on a free ride to those remote desert location, which i could never go on my own….thank you so much
1990 older stuff. Lol .
If you were born after 1990 your still a baby .
Jar are for water maybe ??
What happened to your channel? I like both of you and your content. Hoping you will upload another exploration video soon.
Kind of reminds me of the old Helter skelter campsite as far as the house and the first mine you went into.
That shack is not covered in ‘pressed tin’, those tin pieces are cut up 5 gallon buckets, flattened out, you can see the bosses for the handles.
There are a ton of details including pics of Duke standing by the fireplace on line, so interesting after seeing this, Great work
Nice vid
what camera are you useing it is amazing
Very interesting video. Not many mines ( at least in California ) with ore tracks intact. I think most have been pulled up and sold for scrap.
Must be a beer mine…
Bubble Up is similar to 7up
Maybe that was a grave where the bottles were on the metal rack?
Cool water storage in mine
I think they used the mine tunnel as a natural refrigerator. That is why there is so many salad dressing jugs. Kinda like a wine cellar, but they drank all the wine before they abandoned the place.

Nice video i like this places of the old times. You right of continuous vandalism of this nice places to visit. Greetings from Netherlands.
Bubble Up soda was very much like 7Up.
@19:58 its a moonshine still and all that clear liquid in the thousand island dressing plastic containers would be moonshine probably as good or better than the day it was made ,kept in a cool dark environment like that hello from Australia
how do you explore without flash lights
If there’s cactus, it’s south of Rachael!
Unwatchable due to audio issues
Why would someone go looking for old mines and not take flashlights and helmets with lights or rope? Are you kidding?
