Canada's Famous Lost City | Abandoned and Forgotten | Destination Adventure

This is a video that I have wanted to make for years, and I am so happy with the experience of making it. I visited the old town location of Minto, in the central interior of BC. There is nothing left structurally of the old town because the entire location was flooded by the man made Carpenter Lake, but that does not mean there isn't anything to see. My goal while visiting Minto, was to put the drone in the air and see how well I can map out the ruins and roads of the old town. This was more difficult than I had hoped, but combining what I could see from the air and what I could see from the ground, I was really able to start building this map.
While on location, I also wanted to do some metal detecting and see if I could find some old relics. I put on a lot of miles and dug a lot of holes, and it was worth every bit of the effort. I got to see so many remnants from the residents that once called this home, and I was able to dig up some really neat relics as well.
As beautiful as the town site is, I cant go without talking about the drive to get there. I have done this drive five times now, and it impresses me more every time I do it. I personally believe that this is the most beautiful drive in British Columbia, and I am so excited to share it with you all.
