After the Gold Rush⛏️?Ghost Town Patina #shorts #gold #boom #mine #youtubeshorts #shortsvideo #urbex
GOLD RUSH: Gold was discovered here in 1902 and a thriving boomtown quickly sprung up. Like many wild west towns, a fire destroyed part of the town around 20 years later and when the pay dirt ran dry, it destroyed the rest.
The ore was rich here though, and the mining district ended up producing around $84 Million USD worth of gold at that time's worth between 1902 and 1940!
Now after after the gold rush, only rust remains. Check out what's left out in the desert after the pay dirt ran dry and the gold turned to patina...

Gold was discovered here in the hills bordering California and Nevada, and a massive rush soon followed. The Cook Bank Building was constructed in 1908 along Main Street, and it was the crown jewel of the town. No expense was spared when building the bank, which was completed with tiles, indoor plumbing and a telephone system. Quite the luxury in the those days... especially in such a desolate area!
Unfortunately this marvelous piece of architecture would be closed within 10 years. The effects of the wall street crash back east and great depression were felt far and wide. As the rich gold ore in the hills became depleted, and prices started dropping, exploring further into the Earth became too expensive. Miners began to pick up camp and move on to one of the several other gold and silver booms nearby.
By 1910 the Cook Bank Building had closed it's doors- the final sign that this boom had gone bust. By 1920, the town only had a few remaining residents, and within another decade it was all but completely abandoned and left to decay out in the desert...

Lake Mead Secrets II - In this update we go over some brand new details behind the possible identities of the first 4 remains recovered during the current drought period at Lake Mead! If you missed the first video, you can find it here: https://youtu.be/6rOwHmNceuo
We share the story of a woman who believes the barrel recovered from Hemenway Harbor might be her brother who went missing in 1977. In another case, a man finds clues that the skeletal remains found by kayakers at Callville Bay might be his father, who drowned in the lake when he was just a toddler. We will also hear from a woman who thinks the body that washed up on the swim area of Boulder Beach might be her father, who drowned decades ago trying to save her mother from falling overboard.
Subscribe and stay tuned as we work on a new series entitled "Behind the Drought" in addition to the monthly water supply report update!

In a follow up to our viewer favorite BEFORE & AFTER, we will head into Lake Mead to match up several vantage points from older photos that will illustrate it's water loss. In this episode we will also explore the history and demise of Boulder Harbor, the original Lake Mead Marina that was built in 1940. Then we head down a wash to check out one of our old haunts. We finish at the infamous "Skyward Boat" that was still underwater just a few short months ago! Included in the video is a quick overview of the water level report from the Bureau of Reclamation as of September 29th, 2022.
