It FINALLY happened! We found
It FINALLY happened! We found and dug out an abandoned mine that had been eroded shut for 150 years. Inside we encountered oxygen deficient air, inclined shafts dropping to unknown depths, rubble-filled tunnels, and a possible ghost!
I met up again with Nick and Traci from the Miner49er YouTube channel for a couple more explorations in the wilderness. One of the mines I had researched for this trip was supposed to have been a very extensive one with workings on multiple levels. After an arduous hike to reach the mine, we were dismayed to find the entrance totally eroded shut. Bummer! Being that the mine was last worked in the late 1800s, Mother Nature has had lots of time to slowly fill in the portal with soil and rocks from higher up on the steep hillside.
While we three sat outside the mine’s portal and took a break in the brutal sunshine, Nick and I looked at each other and realized that we were thinking the same thing: Let’s go move some rocks and see if we can gain entry! I knew this was going to be a longshot because I’ve attempted to dig out a few mines in previous years and have never been successful. Nick and I weren’t even sure where to begin digging without knowing exactly where the top of the tunnel arch was. So we blindly picked a spot that looked like it might be in the general area of where the tunnel was, and within five minutes of removing rocks and dirt with our hands, we made a small hole through which we could feel cold, musty air blowing out at us! Once we saw that, Nick retrieved his collapsible shovel from his backpack and we began digging more eagerly to open up the portal. An hour later we had made a hole big enough for us three to slide down the erosion pile and into the mine! It was thrilling knowing that nobody had been in this mine for 150 years and that we were the first ones to enter it and document it on video.
For those of you interested in the paranormal, I realized after I got home that I caught another strange light that appeared in a tunnel that I was filming. The scene starts at 10:11 in the video. At 10:33 as the clip is fading out, you can see what looks like a small white light that appears on top of the rubble pile next to the left hand wall as I’m looking down the tunnel. This is the second time a strange light like that has appeared in my footage while exploring abandoned mines. It’s probably just some kind of anomaly, but it sure is intriguing! Please let me know what you think.
I hope you enjoy this unique exploration of this pristine, undisturbed, historic mine that was devoid of the modern garbage, immature graffiti, and the other hallmarks left behind by other explorers in other mines.

SPECIAL NOTE:
While exploring this mine, Nick and Traci were able to access some areas both inside and outside the mine that I did not. To see Nick’s exciting video with footage of these additional areas, click here: Unearthing a Sealed Abandoned Mine - ...
Additionally, Nick uploads outstanding abandoned mine exploration videos EVERY Saturday, so if you haven’t already subscribed to his Miner49er YouTube channel, you can do so by clicking here: miner49er1
Thank you very much for supporting a fine fellow explorer of abandoned mines!
