    I’ve recently read about a person, Khayman Welch 25yr male, who has been missing in the Superstition Mountains since August 2020. He walked to get a good view of a sunset near Weavers Needle and never came back?, according to his Uncle, of whom he was with. I wanted to know if you guys had heard about this or is there any updates?
    I know this is off the wall and I’m sorry, but I thought of you guys as soon as I heard the location of where this guy went missing.
    Well ya’ll take care now and look forward to the next story! Frank

    The hole he found is actually called a HOYO and this is a form of PIT mining. A technique the Spanish used. Also on Ruth’s map from Peralta he had. The Dutchman mine is also a Hoyo thus no prospector can see it unless they walk up the hill. No ledge in site with a hole shaft. Also why at 4pm there is a natural light in the mine that glistens on the gold. Below this hill is a walled up tunnel too and. Rock house up high near the shaft

    I heard that the gold bars were found and after he found the gold and died and his wife knew where it was and they bought the rights where it was located. Then the Army came in and took the rest of the bars- hundreds of bars after they confiscated the rights and when they were dynamited the entrance. This woman had someone watched her claim and watched the military take out all of the rest before they took the gold and blowing up the entrance. There’s army whistle blower but he was mysteriously shipped to as far away from the AZ area. That’s pretty much how it went and eventually received her claim back.

    Why are there so many stories about treasure and gold in the Superstition Mountains? I've been to the area, not to gold hunt, but because I lived in Tucson as a child and always stopped at Picacho peak, went tubing down the salt River and camped at Apache Lake. It fascinates me that there are so many large gold stories and treasure stories in the Superstition Mountains!

    About that Lydia Perrine story: Let me share something with ya old son. Now, I don't know if there's a shred of truth about what she said she saw in the "underground river" cavern. But I'll tell you one thing that's fact. There is indeed underground rivers in that area, used by the ancient Apaches. I say this, because I've used them, that's how we used to water our horses out there. If you don't know how to recognize the access points, you'd walk right past them, none the wiser. The access points are deliberately hidden, but identifiable if you know what your looking at, or for. The first time I saw these, they were shown to me by two guys I worked for, business partners, 42 years ago. I haven't shown anyone where these are in all that time, but I'm about to show my youngest brother and nephew. That water is crystal clear and ice cold. We'd have to use a rope and a bucket to get the water, because the water is about 15 feet down. So obviously there has to be a pretty good size cavern in there. I've been buying up equipment for a trip out there, including for the purpose of dropping a camera and lights down into that cavern where the underground river is, in a certain spot. I've been going thru the Superstitions and surrounding area for 55 years. I've found a Silver vein, Copper and a large Sulpher deposit and plenty of other stuff. All kind of old mines, some clearly visible, some hidden. I even found Petroplyphs with Wooly Mammoths. Ten years later, they dug up a dozen Wooly Mammoth skeletons in downtown Chandler. Back in the 60's, we found an area close to the Superstitions full of pottery, pottery shards, arrowheads, etc. My parents reported it to the Archeological Society and they fenced off the entire area. Used to be downshafts all over the place South/Southwest of the Superstition mountain, but I think many of those have been backfilled because they built houses all over in there. Used to be two old timers that lived out there for years. We'd take them supplies now and then. They were looking for the Dutchman. I've heard a lot of people say (not from Arizona)..."We are going to run out of water".....I just laugh and tell them, you might run out of water, but I won't, LOL. I know where undergroudn rivers are, :D.

      Next gen here. The idea of underground caverns in Arizona is beyond my biggest beliefs! Especially down here in the valley. Would love to check them out, but I assume they dont easily flow in and out of the mountain... curious if you know: Did people dig down to access them? Or is it from the constant monsoon storms and floods?

    • @ghostjohn2001

      The access points I speak of are not natural. A more curious question is his did the ancients know where to dig? Most likely an educated guess based on prior experience, and a good one. The caverns obviously were created over centuries of erosion. However, I do know of very large caverns that are not part of any river system. The floor of one particular cavern is entirely covered with skeletons where no part of the dirt floor is visible. This cavern also has a large Sulfur deposit inside it. I don't know the full length of this cavern, but the height varies, even higher then 30 feet. There appears to have been an attempt to hide this cavern at some point in time, as there is a huge boulder just in front of the entrance.

      The cavern I’m talking about is in the San Tan Mountains. Finding the cavern was purely accidental and unintended. I often wondered what caused so many skeletons to be in the cavern, I suspect it is “bad air”. I have no idea if any human skeletons are in there. That’s because when I found it, I had no intentions of going in there and donating my bones to the enormous pile, lol. That and I was 15 and had only one weak flashlight. That cave has been driving me crazy with curiosity ever since.

      @@standeman32 I’d have to think the cavern was naturally formed, but I think people may have enlarged the entrance some. Mind you, the entrance is not huge, only 3-4 feet in diameter. The entrance is level with the floor, so water may have seeped out of it during heavy rains, making a smaller hole. I want to go back and go inside but I’m concerned with what caused all those bones to be in there, lol. It could be bad air, or something else. But whatever it was killed a whole lot of something. There are a big variety of bones, animals, etc. I don’t currently know if any human bones are mixed in there. I mean, there are literally thousands of bones. It wouldn’t be too difficult to go in, except for the bones. But you’d pretty much have to go in on hands and knees, unless you’re pretty limber. In doing that, I’d have to be concerned about the possibility of rattlesnakes being in there under the bones. So it would be wise to take precautions.

    Funny thing bout that dutchman, is there are more than one. Very similar people.
    Different stories. Both, heard about it from their apache wives. Both wives got their tounges cut out by the apaches, for tellin about it. Before this, the natives met others with gold fever. It was a problem, because the natives loved their home and didn't want it, or their beliefs desecrated. But, the connecting evidence, is that Jesuit church treasure.
    The treasure, is several different caches.
    In different spots. You can see one, from another. If, you know what you lookin at.
    There will be significant dates evident, such as 1521. 1609. And the latest I've seen is 1790. Arizona history, is way more fascinating than most folks realize.
