Revisiting Some Old Cherokee Tunnels
Revisiting Some Old Cherokee Tunnels
Hike with Brady Brandwood as he takes another trip up into the mountains of North Georgia to visit some very old tunnels likely dug by Cherokee Indians during the Georgia Gold Rush of 1828,… and which tunnels or gold mines were possibly part of the catalyst for the ‘Indian Removal Act’ and the Trail Of Tears. It’s a fun adventure, with peeks into some dark, forgotten places.
Why on Earth do you not even give us the location ? Is it a secret ?
are you the guy with Leon
Oh spit! I hate those bugs cricket things. I haven’t seen them since I left Charlotte thank God. Haven’t seen any in Georgia.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 :0 :0 🙂
The mouth of the third cave looks familiar to me. There are a set of caves similar to these in the hills above Dahlonega Ga.
Are these the same caves??
Brave!
The Trail of Tears and the Indian Removal Act are blots on this nation’s history that should not be as ignored as they are.
That looked like an exploratory tunnel.. you might check old maps or do a closer survey of the area and see if they put a mine in someplace close..
Such an awesome video! I’m glad the YouTube algorithm brought me Leon the lobster video! Now I can watch all of your other other videos!😊
I live in ellijay and know a lot of caves and mines , I will trade you exact location for the location of these caves.
whats the title of the music you playing its kinda good and cachiiii…..can you share me the link its cool and relaxing
man, your videos are so chill, it really helps me overcome my problems 🙂
The last cave/mine you entered looks a lot like the abandoned mines I’ve found in Dahlonega, Ga.. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Hey Brady. You make such good videos. Many are made by amateurs and are hard to watch. Anyway I just got back from Cherokee Qualla boundary. Then watched every video on the Cherokee natives. They sure could use a good documentarian if you’re ever interested. I think about them and other natives a lot amidst all the black lives matter voices. Thanks for the video.
That’s Awesome
Ah yes, the spider crickets are a staple in the south eastern mines found in this area.
Where exactly was this area?
I wonder if he found any fraggles in there.
cool history thanks
A Local story in my area was that some Oklahoma Cherokees would come and camp out in the woods behind our local dairy queen in the 60s and 70s and would eventually split up in all different ways. One story told by a local is that a small group of them asked for him to take them to a area called "Mable Hill" they would then pull out a Map on some old deer pelt and it led them to some buried gold, the man was even given some gold for his troubles
you should visit the Georgia Guidestones
I am Cherokee on my mother’s side and Scottish on daddy’s side. And I am from GA. Moma grew up in Wilmington, N.C. and granny grew up in S.C. So I was thrilled to watch this video!! Thank you soo much!!
Aaaahhhhh you couldn’t pay me enough to crawl in those bug infested holes! I did enjoy watching as you crawled through though. 🥰
Cool
are you in bartow co. by chance? have you been back
All due respect to "Old Hickory" the Trail of Tears was a humanitarian crime of epic proportions. The saddest thing about it is that was only ONE heinous act against the indigenous people. IT makes me feel ashamed to be counted among the oppressors.
hey im cherokee eastern band can you tell me where that is at i would love to go into one of them
These may be earlier from the Desoto expidition.
So cool! North Georgia holds so many mysteries. Thanks for sharing.
This is just sooo cool!! Love the content! Thank you to Leon for making me discover you 😊
Great narrative, Brad. Thank you.
Awesome video
Love it .Thank for sharing
thanks for the video…..new subscriber here! I really enjoy your work and what you’re doing with Leon!!!!
You’d never catch me going into caves without a guide and those are walk in ones. Ever see that film The Descent. That’s what this reminded me of without the hungry humanoid underground dwellers. Plus I’ve seen some documentaries on cave exploration and it just brought out my inner claustrophobia. I’ll watch and even then I get nervous.
I love this video and it’s so hard to find and video where you learn and you can watch it over and over again without getting bored and this is perfect I wish more saw this. I am also Learning about someone from Cherokee so thank you😁
