Ponderosa Saloon and Belcher Mine - Part 4 Once A Bank Now A Place Of Spirits
The saloon at one time was the Sharon House and in 1864 The Bank Of California which played a role in developing the Comstock Lode. I will take you into a bank vault and a blast to the past as I film relics of the past. The bank would close in the 1930s not before it was robbed by a band of outlaws who buried some of the loot up at six mile canyon which is visible from downtown Virginia City. Eventually in the 1970s when the owners purchased this location they turned it into the saloon and dug a horizontal shaft into the main tunnel of The Belcher Mine so that they could give tours to its visitors while they could enjoy an ice cold brew. The saloon is very cozy as almost everything is original that includes the flooring, woodwork, old antique lamps and some of the relics in the cabinets. Mounted on the walls above are bucks, elks and even a boars head. It just feels so natural to be here and although its a little noisy in the background what does that tell you? It tells you everyone is having a great time and spirits is what its truly about.

Fourth Ward Historic School - Part 12 2nd Annual Zombie/Red Run Compilation Virginia City Nevada
This is a compilation of the second annual Zombie Red Run! I filmed this during my journey through downtown Virginia City and by where the race begins as well as ends near. Some of the film was done by a window we sat at facing Main Street at the Delta Saloon where I ordered a Philly Cheese steak dip with a suicide ale. The whole idea if that the runners must try to get around the zombies by not having their flags ripped off of them kind of like flag football but with some pizazz LOL. It gets pretty competitive out there you can tell just by watching these clips!

The Most Haunted Town in America! Alton, Illinois
Spooks call this place home, and they have the potential of appearing at any time, to any person, at any location. It is said that limestone, a building material used in many Alton dwellings because of its supply nearby, holds psychic energy. The Illini Indians once dominated this place, along with the nearby convergence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers. All this makes for a great ghostly paradise!

Dadventures: The origin story
Skier, wakeboarder, and all around adventure madman Wade Holland learned from the best, his dad. So when it came time for Wade’s latest trek through the wild West, he decided to take his dad up on a little old school versus new school excursion they called Dadventures.
Picking up a new Airstream Basecamp, they road tripped Nevada’s Lake Tahoe Loop, stopping along the way at places Wade’s mom and dad used to ski and explore when they first met back in the 1970s. They also visited Virginia City, where the Hollands’ ancestry goes back generations to the original 19th-century hard rock miners who mined the largest silver strike in history.
Join us on this epic throwback tour that would make both Warren Miller and Henry Comstock proud.
