A Return to the Nikolaus Eureka Mine: Seven Years Later

The abandoned Nikolaus Eureka Mine is precariously perched high on the side of a rugged mountain outside Death Valley. I explored this former talc and soapstone mine back in 2014 with Jeremy and Tony. Much of the underground workings were collapsed or partially collapsed, and we deemed it as one of the most dangerous underground explorations we had undertaken. The risk was worth it, though, because we found a trove of mining artifacts!

Seven years later, I found myself wondering if anything had changed at the Nikolaus Eureka Mine. In the intervening years, people relayed unsubstantiated reports to me that said some of the equipment and items were no longer there that I had shown in my initial video. So once again I set out to hike back up the steep mountain trail and down the backside to revisit the amazing, extraordinary, spectacular Nikolaus Eureka Mine.

If you missed my original 2014 exploration of the Nikolaus Eureka Mine with Jeremy and Tony, it can be found at the link below. In it, we descend the 300-foot inclined shaft and find a lot of amazing artifacts on the lower levels. Here is the link: https://youtu.be/qI7k0r7Cy6k
