- The Treasure Rock is very fascinating and I tried to capture as much details as I could. The heart with two circles around it is the symbol for a very rich cache of gold.
This trip kicked my butt!!! I was exhausted from hiking up and down the mountain and had ran out of water during my last hike. When I finally made it back to my Jeep a very nice Forest Ranger was driving by. I spoke with him for a bit and he gave me some water to drink. I was very thankful.
Hope you enjoy the video.

Sceptic as I may be, yet here I am watching another.
Love the music!! Thank you!!
Cool, always glad to hear feed back on the music. Appreciate it.
I especially like you explained a blow hole and what the ground/ ore looks like so we may know what to look for
Thanks Warne. I have a video titled, "using geology to find old mines". You might enjoy this one as well.
Nice watching real exploration and the history and knowledge in your explanations , very intresting and good to not see and hear bs.
Thanks Warne and glad you appreciate my different approach to documenting and sharing these sites.
I would love to have some of that iron ore to smelt
The only carvings on the panel that I thought were noteworthy were the concentric circles.
White Rocks Looks like Limestone, that's a Good Sign, that's what I would be looking for....
Thanks Darrel. Appreciate the comment.
Did you carry your detector,,..or,,,can you even bring one here???...pat&family,.land o' lakes,wi.
I don't own a metal detector, I don't even own a gold pan. I am a lousy treasure hunter / prospector. I am more into the history.
Nothing lousy about this,,......just sayin,,a gold bug detector is one of today's best,,,can even use it inside caves,mines on walls,,..might as well,,,,,someone else will evetually,,...that is just me thinking,...peace.
Moon Lake?
I must have the first song. What is the name!?
I don't remember the name of the song, but it was done by a Slavic Artist. I found the song on youtube. I probably typed something like, "Epic Slavic Instrumental Music" or something like that. Good luck and sorry I can't help further.
No worries, thank you!
Keep the videos coming. I love them
hi, what the time range the spanish might have worked that mine?
Sam, I personally don't believe the Spaniards created that mine. If they did, American prospectors came in behind them and opened up the entrance. Usually the old Spanish mines had small entrances, then opened up when going inside.
I believe the Spaniards mined up in the Uinta's from around the Escalante Expedition (few years prior or after), then ceased mining in the early 1800's. I base this theory on the established historical documentation we have available. Here are a few examples.
1776 Escalante Journal: The Ute Indians in Utah (including their guides) were ignorant of any Spaniards ever being in the Basin or surrounding area. This is especially evident when they reach the Wasatch Front.
Early Trappers and Explorers: From 1822 onward you have multiple trading posts and forts being built in the Uintah Basin. Many historical documents have survived from this time. None of the documents mention anything about Spanish Mining activity in the Uintah's. The do mention Spanish and French slave trading, but nothing about mining ventures.
This leaves a gap of around 30-40 years for the Spanish to have completed their mines in the Uinta's. Probably from around the 1770's to 1810's.
Have you found or panned gold out of those redish orange outcrops with white quartz lying nearby?
I never have and usually spend more time exploring around goofing off, when I probably should be doing stuff like that.
Red herring
Somebody carving on top of old Indian carving was normal 100 years or more ago was meant for passing along information the way we might use a laundra mat community bill board. Today, carving on old Indian carvings is called "tagging" with being outright vandelism because there is no need of passing along information by carving on old Indian carvings. By the way, who planted a fake treasure of a non crushed aluminum can buried thirty inches deep with two air gap chambers at the Spanish Glory Hole Mine above and south of the Moon Lake Dam ?
Good theory about the panels and logical way of approaching it. I'm not familiar with the mine you're talking about, or the beer/pop can someone buried.
A 16th or 17th century rock carving is not ancient.
When it comes to Spanish treasure carvings in the U.S. that's about as ancient as they get.
I know where those petroglyphs are. Like I know that sounds fake but I grew up a couple miles from here. I know where this is. That being said I don't think is a Spaniard map.
