Ghost Town Living

The hurricane hit our road bad! Once again we have no road to Cerro Gordo, but we are working to rebuilt it!

New video this Sunday (September 10th at 1pm PT)! All about the damage, the repair, and what's next.

I'm sending out an email tomorrow with a lot more photos, thoughts, and description of what's happening. It's free, sign up here: cerrogordo.ck.page/ac78499599

Thank you all for the support through all this! Cerro Gordo will overcome this too!

So I'll just say that I think it would be super cool if you could get Grady hillhouse, from practical engineering to come and help figure out how to create a drainage system. One that can prevent the road from washing out. Plus he might be able to help creat a water retention system to provide more water for the city

Nothing will stop Brent and his friends from rebuilding this road as often as they must. When I think times are hard for me, I think of Brent and his will to keep going for his goal. Thank you Brent and all who help out!

The smile on your face says it all, you've been an inspiration when it comes to staying positive and pushing through with the end goal in mind and not the current woe

Brent, if I could get there I would. I am at home convalescing from a vein disease.... it cuts off the circulation to my extremities .... 10 minutes worth of work means 20 minutes of sitting ..... Lots of pain...... I LOVE WHAT CERRO GORDO MEANS TO YOU . AT MEANS AS MUCH TO ME ..... l like the custom Cerro Gordo silver you harvest..... That road has history and slows down history in the making..... KEEP MAKING HISTORY, BRENT..... I SUBBED WHEN YOU ONLY HAD LESS THAN 100 SUBS ..

I feel guilty saying this but that washout looks like fun to be had on a dirt bike. Take us on a ride Brent!

Hehe, you don't seem so scared as before. Seems like you got used with these unexpected things, you "adapted" and now you are just going ahead no matter what. If I could resume the whole channel in two words: passion and commitment. Keep going!

You are truely living and dealing in history... Can you imagine, Im sure you can repairing this with only Mules and donkeys. Everytime you post a story I am excited to see how you are coping with what life has sent you and am always so impressed with how you keep smiling and carry on. Thank you for always inspiring.

Oh man, can't catch a break can you? 😭 I hope this is the last time you'd have to fix the road. I wish anything would stay out of the way of building the hotel. Wishing you the best, Brent! Your dedication has not gone unnoticed & I love seeing the community come together to help restore a historic location.

Glad your safe and that you and the team are starting that task of rebuilding those roads. Was just wondering if cramping time or ice plant would help secure the surrounding hill sides. I know both plants do great in extreme dry and sanding soil

@wingerfan1

Hopefully you'll be able to build back the road better than ever. Seems to me like it needs a lot more prep work then what was done back in the day. If anybody is up for the challenge, I know that you are. In the face of adversity you stood tall. Very proud of what you've accomplished. Keep up the good work my friend.
