Discover the ancient tales that speak of these mountains as a purgatory, where all Apaches must pass before or after death-depending on the storyteller. Some even call this mountain "Ghan," a sacred place where only martyred warriors are said to be buried deep within its rugged confines.

    Nice story , if I ever go up into the mountains on foot it won't be looking for treasure , it will be for the scenery and maybe stumble across an artifact . I would like to hike to the base of weavers needle though .

    thanks for the story. I think people have it backwards these days. instead of specifically going to look for treasure why not go for a few days hike and enjoy the views relax and take a" thousand" pictures .lots of treasures have been found by just stumbling on them, if you find something good if not you will at least have a thousand little pieces of gold. take care men.

    You know Hank, I just love all these stories and many others of the old West. But, the future is near and rolling forward and so many stories have yet to be told. I sincerely hope that you can find a couple of protegie's to keep telling these stories. As a young man I used to metal detect our here in the East, PA respectfully, never finding much but always read of the Old West in the modern Treasure magazines of the day. It would be a shame to loose this site as we hunger for the rich yellow metal and ancient relics of the past.

    It goes to show how deadly those mountains are not for the inexperienced for the beginners 1. Bring lots of water 2. Stay on the trails 3. Dont wander off the trails 4. If going off trail always go with someone that knows that area like the back of your hand

  • @weldenjon

    My question is this…Will there ever be a day that someone does find the lost Dutchman Mine and brings back the gold to prove it? I personally haven’t heard of anyone doing so or it would have been made abundantly clear to everyone who is still looking for it.

  • @LuckyBaldwin777
    @LuckyBaldwin777 2 роки тому +5

    That's crazy logic. Let's say it's true and the guy thought just like Waltz. It still wouldn't have worked because Waltz wasn't the original locator of the mine. Oops.

    • @LuckyBaldwin777
      @LuckyBaldwin777 2 роки тому

      @Hank Sheffer According to Bicknell, it was the Peraltas. Had to be someone else other than Waltz since Waltz came upon 6 Mexican miners working the mine when he first saw it.

    • @marhawkman303
      @marhawkman303 2 роки тому

      @Hank Sheffer Hmm even so, I do have to wonder how much digging Waltz actually did. A lot of mines are easy to locate because of the tell-tale pile of loose material next to the entrance. Obviously that gets eroded over time, and can be hauled off by the miners to farther locations... but... how much of the that was Jacob even able to do? it seems like his physical well being was the reason he stopped mining.

    • @LuckyBaldwin777
      @LuckyBaldwin777 2 роки тому

      @Hank Sheffer Interesting. I've never heard that before. So can anything from Bicknell's account be believed?

    *"Clarification" grasshopper ...*
    The true Gold, the Treasure, is the *"experience(s)"* That's the real purpose of our Life Journey.
    *When one realizes this, and applies the feelings of Appreciation, "then the material Gold will manifest".*
    *... and that is Absolute, it 8s defined in the Universal Laws, particularly the "Universal Law of Attraction"*
    "absolute" ...
    No one is a loser, particularly those whom come to realize, it's about evolving from the Lower Mind, aka (Ego Mind, aka Adolescent Mind) to the Higher Mind aka Mature Mind.
    There is where we truly, literally experience the desires, and there we can manifest our dreams, even gold.
