With no weather and unchanging humidity, deep caves are accidental time capsules — Adam Weaver has found a 24,000-year-old mummified weasel and a pine marten preserved like jerky. These are the kinds of details that surfaced when we sat down to talk about what it's actually like to map the places no one else goes. Copyright Outdoor Visions Media LLC, 2025 #podcast

I have a rock that is millions of years old. And some 50 million year old water in a bottle.
So mustelids like caves…
“Looked like it died yesterday “ “Was it just bones? “ Lol
I found a rat one time that was 17 trillion years old.
Weasel had it's DOB written down for 'em I guess.
You found a newspaper from 1890 that’s 12000 years old?!
Yep, we verified their ages by their birth certificates.
A house I lived in noble oklahoma was beam and pillar construction, the spaces inbetween the pillars on the exterior were filled with newspaper and then basiclly concrete/mortar was applied over them. In the areas the facade was coming off you could see newpapers dated all the way back to the 1915.
I went in a cave that had a news paper from 1802 where there talking about making Ohio a state.
Well that went from the 1890's to 22,000bc real quick. 🤯
Can you imagine if a weasel learned English & read a book about animals? He'd get to the "W's" & say, "LEAST weasel"? That was seriously the best name you could come up with?"
I found a love letter from the 1890s, from your mom!
It was a billion yrs old
I bet if you dated that newspaper - it would be a few thousand years old (of course without looking at the date on the newspaper)
Are they related to the famous sh*t weasel
Honestly I will never forgive this guy for not laughing at most weasel. That was awesome and you deserved better bro.
It wasn't that old... Radiocarbon dating is HELLA-flawed. 😂
Don't you just think because of the environment it just seems like stuff is older than it really is?
In Montana there’s a cave system called “the Lewis and Clark caves” and it had a 20,000yearold bat that was melded into the rock and it was crazy that it was a full of hair and the wings were perfect
God bless them. Much like sky diving. Thats all you.
