A Labyrinth Of Passages And Chambers In The Climax Mine (Part 2 of 3)
Channel: Abandoned Mine Exploring with Tom and Julie
Date: 2021-08-08

This massive Nevada silver mine has numerous ladders leading into huge stopes and a long winze shaft leading to the depths of the mine. We entered the workings through a beautifully timbered portal that leads to the mineral vein which cuts through this large mountain. The ore body that was removed by the miners left the large stopes that are supported by natural pillars and wood stulls. In this video we explore the lower level after descending the winze shaft. There are so many places to explore, and ladders to climb on different routes through the mine, that we couldn't get to them all on this visit. We were in for a real surprise when we left the mine, as there was a massive dust storm that had moved in while we were inside the mine, and visibility was extremely poor.
