Exploring Ghost Town Frozen in Time You Won't Believe Exists | Kitsault BC 【4K】

Hi everyone I hope you all enjoyed a look at this incredible ghost town. Walking around the streets and going in some of these fully preserved buildings was surreal. Truly incredible to see a place like this. Are there any other ghost towns like this anywhere in the world? Let me know what you think of this place. Have a wonderful day everyone!

Why can't they open the homes for homeless people

Unless his Wikipedia page has been vandalized, the owner of Kisault is an extremely dodgy guy.

How do they maintain the security in this town?

Why do we have so many people unhoused- families even- and whole houses in a whole town sit empty. Put people in them to care for the homes and build a community again.

Move in so many homeless people

Depressing.

Who takes care of this town

Very interesting, but a lot of it looks staged. It's very unlikely that the people leaving chose to lay everything out like it was some sort of museum before they left.

It's cool, and it makes it more interesting in a way, but it kind of takes away from the true feeling of "abandonment". Definitely a museum feel to it.

Is it actually technically a ghost town?

Is it being used as some sort of theme resort of something?

I wonder if Amazon delivers……..🤣

fk city

Precious!

i want to live there

🇵🇭

How clean is the city! Even it's abandoned

I like the video, the slider shots, the whole thing but your music choices are all wrong IMO.

My question is, the owner has owned it for decades now and nobody lives there - why? Id happily start a project of getting ppl to move there and Im pretty sure it wouldnt be very hard considering the crap going on today.

Perfect set for the post apocalipse movies such as the “Last of us”..

Its still abandoned because the new developer decided to price the house at current market rate. No one is paying $2.7m for a house in an abandoned town.

As someone that really loves (real, mundane) 80s aesthetics, this video was a joy to watch, I could easily imagine really enjoying having an extended stay at this place. It's really just my vibe.

Anyone else notice the mall door open and close as he walks the lot? 👻

Salami land!

everything looked so cool b4 compared to now

I know there will be uninformed answers to this, but why are there tent cities everywhere and also ghost towns sitting empty like this? Its easy to say "because addiction"... but we know that addiction is almost always a trauma response and that nature heals trauma. Can we not create better programs that think outside the box enough to bridge this gap?

I'm not saying "ship all the homeless to the middle of nowhere" at all. But I'm willing to bet that the funding wasted on initiatives that don't currently work could more than fund something that presents a healthy lifestyle that offers purpose and a sense of well being that many of those experiencing being homeless or at risk of homelessness would sign on to.

I spent a summer working in Kitsault for the B.C. Molybdenum Co. in the late 1960s. The housing was down at tidewater on Alice Arm, and the mine a few miles up into the mountains. There were a few houses for married staff, and the single staff were housed in Atco trailer sets. All the roads were gravel, and the landscaping was raw dirt and gravel. People came in and left by aircraft, usually by the "Grumman Goose" (actually a Grumman Mallard, I was told) from Prince Rupert. Supplies came in by barge from Prince Rupert every Friday, so our booze supply arrived just in time for the weekend, and was pretty much gone by Monday. There was a cookhouse/mess hall and a rec. centre also made up of trailers. As I recall, the weather was usually depressing for any creature other than a duck. Usually the clouds hung at about 500 feet above the water (about 50 feet above the ground at the minesite) with drizzling rain. Sunshine was seen only occasionally.

Although it’s a shame that it’s a ghost town at least it hasn’t been destroyed by vandalism. Amazing how that library looked inside, pretty much like everyone immediately up and left

Ashtrays in the bank...haha... I wasn't in that town, but many things were the same in other places. Yes, i used Royal Bank back then and it looks just like my branch did....hahaha

WOW

Can be good movie locations!

So why not give the housing to retirees? why waste so much?

Wow, what a well maintained ghost town

I wonder how many of those houses are riddled with black mold and how many aren't. It's like a horrible guessing game.

My Dad died last year from cancer.

Seeing all that early 80’s furniture, items and aesthetics brought back a flood of good child memories with him.

Thank you.

God i love to live there its awful to see it empty just imagine how many people this town could help if people could live there.

I suggest that which country has over loaded population transfer them here 😂... Then there is no ghost or else ...😮

People commenting dont understand this place is owned by a rich guy. Who has at least 1 caretaker living there year round. That's why it has power, water & is in the condition it's in. Most homes need major work to get back to being livable. Also this place is very remote. So no, it won't make a good retirement community or anything else. Most people dont want to live someplace. Were u can only get in or out by Snowmobile or boat the majority of the year. Or hours down a narrow dirt road to a small town. Not to mention, there are no jobs. A person would need satellite internet to do anything online.

Such a shame...all those facilities...and homes...people could re-inhabiting the town...and bringing life there again...definitely would make a great resort...the owner should sell the properties...people should be living there again.

Just wanted to say that jet boat is not the only way to visit. My husband travelled there by driving through the remote wilderness. Yes, the caretakers are lovely folks!!!

Wow 👌 thank you!

This dead town is in a better state than any small town in my shthole 3rd world country. The place looks really beautiful and serene.

Very awesome!!

Only Canada .. leaves electricity on in Ghostown .. go SOLAR

Why did they leave?

This is what half our small towns in the US will look soon . Many were 1 and 2 factory towns where the work has gone to Mexico ,Cina and India .

Is that lady still the caretaker ?

And yet the homes have newer roofs. Strange...

1) amazing it's in arrested decay
2) I'm shocked there's no graffiti
3) you're vids are awesome
