20:43 West Street Waterway they had their own Creeks running through town so they

20:46 own Creeks running through town so they

20:46 own Creeks running through town so they actually had water here unlike a lot of

20:48 actually had water here unlike a lot of

20:48 actually had water here unlike a lot of the dry mining towns whoo of the old

20:51 the dry mining towns whoo of the old

20:51 the dry mining towns whoo of the old west woo and this down here is from

20:55 west woo and this down here is from

20:55 west woo and this down here is from relatively more modern times you see

20:57 relatively more modern times you see

20:57 relatively more modern times you see this depressions in the ground over here

21:00 this depressions in the ground over here

21:00 this depressions in the ground over here and there are some big rock walls as

21:03 and there are some big rock walls as

21:03 and there are some big rock walls as well this is from a later period when

21:05 well this is from a later period when

21:05 well this is from a later period when instead of silver mining they were doing

21:09 instead of silver mining they were doing

21:09 instead of silver mining they were doing uranium mining out here oh that's right

21:12 uranium mining out here oh that's right

21:12 uranium mining out here oh that's right and this is one of the settling ponds so

21:14 and this is one of the settling ponds so

21:14 and this is one of the settling ponds so this guy over here in this house is

21:17 this guy over here in this house is

21:17 this guy over here in this house is living just

21:19 living just

21:19 living just above some uranium mining action and

21:23 above some uranium mining action and

21:23 above some uranium mining action and actually I didn't know this when we were

21:24 actually I didn't know this when we were

21:24 actually I didn't know this when we were standing here earlier the stamp Mill

21:25 standing here earlier the stamp Mill

21:25 standing here earlier the stamp Mill ruins we started at this bad boy hanging

21:28 ruins we started at this bad boy hanging

21:28 ruins we started at this bad boy hanging off the side of the cliff going down to

21:30 off the side of the cliff going down to

21:30 off the side of the cliff going down to the

21:31 the

21:31 the ditch this was a uranium

21:34 ditch this was a uranium

21:34 ditch this was a uranium Mill so that's crazy might be some

21:37 Mill so that's crazy might be some

21:37 Mill so that's crazy might be some uranium waste down there might get a

21:39 uranium waste down there might get a

21:39 uranium waste down there might get a little radioactive maybe they got a

21:41 little radioactive maybe they got a

21:41 little radioactive maybe they got a radioactive Bigfoot over here all right

21:43 radioactive Bigfoot over here all right

21:43 radioactive Bigfoot over here all right so the way Glenn explained this to me

21:44 so the way Glenn explained this to me

21:44 so the way Glenn explained this to me earlier is that this right here is the

21:47 earlier is that this right here is the

21:47 earlier is that this right here is the Silver Reef there's still all kinds of

21:49 Silver Reef there's still all kinds of

21:49 Silver Reef there's still all kinds of Mines out there you know what let him

21:52 Mines out there you know what let him

21:52 Mines out there you know what let him explain it he explained it better that

21:54 explain it he explained it better that

21:54 explain it he explained it better that is called the white reath that white all

21:56 is called the white reath that white all

21:56 is called the white reath that white all this white Sandstone here yeah and

21:58 this white Sandstone here yeah and

21:58 this white Sandstone here yeah and that's called the Buckey

22:00 that's called the Buckey

22:00 that's called the Buckey reef and the Buckey Reef has a white

22:03 reef and the Buckey Reef has a white

22:03 reef and the Buckey Reef has a white cliff on the back of it looks just like

22:05 cliff on the back of it looks just like

22:05 cliff on the back of it looks just like that and the reason is it's they're both

22:08 that and the reason is it's they're both

22:08 that and the reason is it's they're both the same Rock that's the Springdale

22:11 the same Rock that's the Springdale

22:11 the same Rock that's the Springdale sandstone and that's where the mining

22:13 sandstone and that's where the mining

22:13 sandstone and that's where the mining took place wow and here's the reason

22:17 took place wow and here's the reason

22:17 took place wow and here's the reason you're standing in the Virgin anac

22:19 you're standing in the Virgin anac

22:19 you're standing in the Virgin anac point and from the Red Rock down to the

22:22 point and from the Red Rock down to the

22:22 point and from the Red Rock down to the river about 5 miles that way this old

22:24 river about 5 miles that way this old

22:24 river about 5 miles that way this old Earth got shoved sideways made a big old

22:26 Earth got shoved sideways made a big old

22:26 Earth got shoved sideways made a big old hump in the Earth surface and everything

22:28 hump in the Earth surface and everything

22:28 hump in the Earth surface and everything thing broke up and washed away shut the

22:31 thing broke up and washed away shut the

22:31 thing broke up and washed away shut the real hard stuff and that's the

22:33 real hard stuff and that's the

22:33 real hard stuff and that's the Springdale sandstone a okay they're over

22:36 Springdale sandstone a okay they're over

22:36 Springdale sandstone a okay they're over 450 openings out here in for the mines

22:40 450 openings out here in for the mines

22:40 450 openings out here in for the mines wow so both the white reef and the

22:42 wow so both the white reef and the

22:42 wow so both the white reef and the Buckey Reef are full of holes this side

22:46 Buckey Reef are full of holes this side

22:46 Buckey Reef are full of holes this side of the anac Cline came up and we got

22:48 of the anac Cline came up and we got

22:48 of the anac Cline came up and we got pushed it hard enough it came apart

22:50 pushed it hard enough it came apart

22:50 pushed it hard enough it came apart we're standing over a fault wow so that

22:53 we're standing over a fault wow so that

22:54 we're standing over a fault wow so that sandstone and that Sandstone are the

22:55 sandstone and that Sandstone are the

22:55 sandstone and that Sandstone are the same stuff back side of the buck Reef's

22:58 same stuff back side of the buck Reef's

22:58 same stuff back side of the buck Reef's got a White Cliff looks just like that

23:00 got a White Cliff looks just like that

23:00 got a White Cliff looks just like that see you said 500 holes 450 465 is the

23:05 see you said 500 holes 450 465 is the

23:05 see you said 500 holes 450 465 is the actual number most of the mining leases

23:07 actual number most of the mining leases

23:07 actual number most of the mining leases or mining patents are still privately

23:09 or mining patents are still privately

23:09 or mining patents are still privately held and most of the mines apparently

23:12 held and most of the mines apparently

23:12 held and most of the mines apparently are barred up because there are bat

23:14 are barred up because there are bat

23:14 are barred up because there are bat populations in them but there is

23:16 populations in them but there is

23:16 populations in them but there is supposedly a road going back there and

23:20 supposedly a road going back there and

23:20 supposedly a road going back there and uh you can explore the backside of the

23:22 uh you can explore the backside of the

23:22 uh you can explore the backside of the Silver Reef but this is where most of

23:23 Silver Reef but this is where most of

23:23 Silver Reef but this is where most of the mines would have been you could see

23:24 the mines would have been you could see

23:24 the mines would have been you could see some of the mine waste pouring down the

23:27 some of the mine waste pouring down the

23:28 some of the mine waste pouring down the hill retaining walls probably from stamp

23:30 hill retaining walls probably from stamp

23:30 hill retaining walls probably from stamp Mills and other mining activity you see

23:32 Mills and other mining activity you see

23:33 Mills and other mining activity you see giant rocks just pushed down the hill as

23:35 giant rocks just pushed down the hill as

23:35 giant rocks just pushed down the hill as well supposedly that's called Buckeye

23:37 well supposedly that's called Buckeye

23:37 well supposedly that's called Buckeye reef and there was a lot more mining out

23:39 reef and there was a lot more mining out

23:39 reef and there was a lot more mining out that way including some uranium mining

23:42 that way including some uranium mining

23:42 that way including some uranium mining later also this is awesome dude now this

27:08 but then came all the uranium Mining and

27:08 but then came all the uranium Mining and the exploratory mining looking for other

27:10 the exploratory mining looking for other

27:10 the exploratory mining looking for other Minerals Copper stuff like that and so

27:13 Minerals Copper stuff like that and so

27:13 Minerals Copper stuff like that and so mining is actually still going on in the

27:15 mining is actually still going on in the

27:15 mining is actually still going on in the region I don't think any is actually

27:17 region I don't think any is actually

27:17 region I don't think any is actually going on on the reef over here present

27:20 going on on the reef over here present

27:20 going on on the reef over here present day but like I said people still own the

27:22 day but like I said people still own the

27:23 day but like I said people still own the mineral rights various companies and

27:25 mineral rights various companies and

27:25 mineral rights various companies and stuff so it could resume here at any

27:27 stuff so it could resume here at any

27:27 stuff so it could resume here at any time which is true of a lot of places in

27:29 time which is true of a lot of places in

27:30 time which is true of a lot of places in the west surprising you go places and

27:31 the west surprising you go places and

27:31 the west surprising you go places and you see people still mining for gold and

27:34 you see people still mining for gold and

27:34 you see people still mining for gold and silver like places like Virginia City

27:36 silver like places like Virginia City

27:36 silver like places like Virginia City and stuff like that I was out there one

27:37 and stuff like that I was out there one

27:37 and stuff like that I was out there one time they were blasting like this huge

27:38 time they were blasting like this huge

27:39 time they were blasting like this huge open

27:39 open

27:39 open pit pretty wild stuff gosh this uh this

27:42 pit pretty wild stuff gosh this uh this

27:42 pit pretty wild stuff gosh this uh this ended up being a lot more to see than I

27:45 ended up being a lot more to see than I

27:45 ended up being a lot more to see than I thought there would be got this nice

27:46 thought there would be got this nice

27:46 thought there would be got this nice little bench area with some sort of maps

27:50 little bench area with some sort of maps

27:50 little bench area with some sort of maps telling you about the geology of the

27:54 telling you about the geology of the

27:54 telling you about the geology of the reef back there that you can see kind of

27:56 reef back there that you can see kind of

27:56 reef back there that you can see kind of the same thing Glenn was telling me

27:57 the same thing Glenn was telling me

27:57 the same thing Glenn was telling me earlier in the Museum as you can see

27:58 earlier in the Museum as you can see

28:06 States that silver was discovered in

28:06 States that silver was discovered in Sandstone also they want you to drive

28:08 Sandstone also they want you to drive

28:08 Sandstone also they want you to drive carefully over here just beyond that

28:10 carefully over here just beyond that

28:10 carefully over here just beyond that little bench area we've got our final

28:13 little bench area we've got our final

28:13 little bench area we've got our final building the rice Bank building

28:17 building the rice Bank building

28:17 building the rice Bank building 1877 I believe this one was

28:20 1877 I believe this one was

28:20 1877 I believe this one was reconstructed as well but I think

28:22 reconstructed as well but I think

28:22 reconstructed as well but I think relatively recently our guide inside was

28:24 relatively recently our guide inside was

28:24 relatively recently our guide inside was saying it burned down in the 1980s so

28:27 saying it burned down in the 1980s so

28:27 saying it burned down in the 1980s so just about the time I was born horn and

28:28 just about the time I was born horn and

28:29 just about the time I was born horn and then basically reconstructed like 10

28:31 then basically reconstructed like 10

28:31 then basically reconstructed like 10 years later uh using a lot of the same

28:33 years later uh using a lot of the same

28:33 years later uh using a lot of the same Stone and materials and stuff like that

28:35 Stone and materials and stuff like that

28:35 Stone and materials and stuff like that so they had a pretty accurate idea of

28:37 so they had a pretty accurate idea of

28:37 so they had a pretty accurate idea of what it was like what's weird is there's

28:39 what it was like what's weird is there's

28:39 what it was like what's weird is there's cars parked next to it and I could see

28:40 cars parked next to it and I could see

28:40 cars parked next to it and I could see an air conditioner so this almost looks

28:42 an air conditioner so this almost looks

28:42 an air conditioner so this almost looks like somebody's living in

28:44 like somebody's living in

28:44 like somebody's living in there strange and then back down here at

28:47 there strange and then back down here at

28:47 there strange and then back down here at the end of the road see the sign in the

28:49 the end of the road see the sign in the

28:49 the end of the road see the sign in the brush for number nine this would lead

28:52 brush for number nine this would lead

28:52 brush for number nine this would lead you down to Chinatown and the town

28:55 you down to Chinatown and the town

28:55 you down to Chinatown and the town basically continued all the way down

28:57 basically continued all the way down into that Gully see those Hills back

28:59 into that Gully see those Hills back

28:59 into that Gully see those Hills back there I think that's the Buckeye reef

29:01 there I think that's the Buckeye reef

29:01 there I think that's the Buckeye reef and there were mining operations over

29:02 and there were mining operations over

29:02 and there were mining operations over there so all between here and there was

29:05 there so all between here and there was

29:05 there so all between here and there was Chinatown there was a racetrack there

29:06 Chinatown there was a racetrack there

29:06 Chinatown there was a racetrack there were all kinds of buildings I mean the

29:09 were all kinds of buildings I mean the

29:09 were all kinds of buildings I mean the town just kept on going and going as you
