Abandoned Cabin in the Middle of Nowhere

look at this beauty right here now this is just the shed but uh this is where they uh had their livestock i just i'm gonna say it i love the patina i don't so much appreciate the bullet holes but you know yeah and then a look inside i'll see the light gauge or cart track up on the ceiling there and then yeah this is just it's amazing isn't it how they kind of like build these these things from just you know repurpose stuff like you say the all-car tracks and pieces of wood and the corrugated metal yeah you just use what you have [Music] as you can see that beautiful flag is flailing in the wind and that means somebody is in residence however they have allowed us to walk around and film so let's take a look and the first room we'll check out is the honeymoon suite which is locked from the inside press up oh very cozy oh it's so much nicer in here than it is outside temperature wise so this was a an addition i think oh no this one wasn't this is the main i think this is isn't this the main cabin because it's got the pitch roof and then they had the additions afterwards so there's a sign on the back of the door that says welcome to this camp now i'm not going to give out the name of the camp if this is your first visit to this camp this is not some old abandoned house that you have stumbled across it is a rare historic treasure in the national park if you read some of the entries in the log books located on the kitchen table you will find writings that indicate how much volunteer work goes into cleaning and maintaining this place so a nice little shelter that looks like somebody's made a fire inside fire pit which is a shame there's remnants here on the ground so it's like come on underneath the structure yeah because you're going to burn the structure down you can already see it's just come on people use your head and here you get a glimpse of the the watering system it's all gravity fed another spring around here that's so neat so the back porch side porch and a nice patio hello tonto come out enjoy a nice refreshment watch the sun go down and there's another notice here that says on lands administered by the national park service it is unlawful to excavate remove disturb deface or destroy any historic or prehistoric building structure ruin site or in place exhibit artifact or object or to collect appropriate evaluate excavate damage disturb or destroy artifacts pictographs petroglyphs objects of antiquity fossils or scientific specimens violators are subject to arrest conviction can carry criminal penalties of up to one year and or ten thousand dollars [Music] oh there you go we have water and that comes from a natural spring that's gravity fed how cool is that let's take a look inside pack it in pack it out yep wish more people would adhere to that very easy yeah there's no dustman service what do you call dustman over here the garbage man there's no garbage man over here the trash man oh wow isn't this cute wow fully stocked look at these pots and pans please keep these cupboard doors latched at all times there are some tins of food in there but obviously you don't want to put anything that the mice can get into so tins and cleaning fluid nice then again a kitchen sink here gravity fed water and just like the other one i'm going to remove this drug real quick that's incredible i love it and then some more of these great advertisements 1932 these places are just i say it all the time but they are so incredible i just now this is actually quite a good idea for people who really feel they need to graffiti what they've done is they put a blackboard up here there you go well that would yeah that is a good idea make a because they do have the chalkboard paint so it's easy to to get rid of if it's rude log book signed business cards left inside and have you seen all these newspaper clips and pictures i know these are like i said i've said it before i could just these news old newspaper clippings old articles newspapers i could just read them all day long i love the artwork the just the way they look i mean it's something special [Music] and right beside it looks like a little nook here that's just a little storage shed okay some extra cans and bits and pieces yep and then opposite that little storage shed there's another storage shed in a little bit worse condition oh yeah this one's kind of just filled with the odds and sides looks like people have left some rubbish in here and no trip would be complete well these ones are really solid mib okay attention friends bang stick under the rim to scare away scorpions but fully stocked i'm not even going to go there yeah these these ones are still usable yes they are and obviously this is a new addition now this cabin was built in the 1930s i'm not going to give away any more information than that apart from that it is in death valley because it is a volunteers cabin and you've already said too much and i've already said too much shh it's a secret the one thing i will add though if you've been here please let us know but without giving away where it is in the description right share your memories just not the location yeah caution hazardous waste area absolutely [Laughter] ready okay this one hasn't been used for a while and i don't think i'd want to use it oh the rats have used it yeah that's still pretty cool look what i found jan we're gonna need your assistance on this one jan was a nz salt flask racer a few others oh wow okay i'm going to say toyota corolla i'm going to say a ford [Laughter] now that was just a joke don't take it so seriously now obviously the roads up here nowadays are pretty horrendous but back in the day the roads were kept up because of the mining and it wasn't until the 60s and 70s flash floods happened and everything and the park service have decided not to maintain some of the roads right oops so this car would have been able to make it up here obviously that's why it's here that's really neat isn't it yeah [Music] and one nice view over the whole complex amazing and we were able to find the source this is pretty neat isn't it oh wow look at that that's really cool and i like how they've protected it well i think this is also to stop the donkeys from getting in there's a little bird's nest up there look isn't that cute someone's made a bird's nest a birdhouse a birdhouse yeah cute so in here we have the shower room this is pretty neat that's just a locker yep which is empty oh that's a bit stiff and a shower there it is fill solar tank from kitchen faucet refill after use and there you go there's the shower head right in the middle of the ceiling pretty ingenious close it up i also love these really tall windows what a great view in the sink they're really pretty aren't they even open you've got the latch yeah really nice oh oh look at that old photograph that's pretty amazing that is really cool now i have no idea who they are but it's a neat photo and the fridge is empty but this is where you would store some food to stop your uh stop the rodents getting it yep you got tons of books to read all the reading material that's great a little jacket if you're smaller in stature [Music] they like their horseshoes here locker it is i can't open it it's jammed it's kind of very mish-mashy isn't it which is cool it gives it more character look at this old cabinet the old little latch and the ornate uh hinges that is so cool it is just a very simple but i mean like we keep saying if you know you're in a pinch somewhere to get out of the elements just until you get yourself sorted out i mean this is yeah it's not just i mean it obviously is a historic value but these cabins can save people's lives which is why it's so important to keep them better than when you found them right and it also it takes you back to a much simpler time i mean this is what they had out here yeah they may have had a spring for some water and that was luxury i mean other than that it was just four walls and a roof to keep you out of the elements a little uh closet area in here but it's just it's the some simplicity of it i i love it i think it's really this is really great i love finding these things i mean look at the door how they've mish-mashed the door just with bits of wood right what they've got to their disposal you know put the fly screen up [Music] and yet again another hidden gem deep in death valley so we hope you've enjoyed this explore and like we said earlier we're not going to disclose this location so if you do know where it is please don't comment just let us know that you've been here and on that note get out there go and explore put another pin in the atlas and we will see you on our next adventure bye [Music] so [Music] you
