Thanks Greg.
Wrong guess on my part....I didn't make it down last year, but remembered it had been put back a week or two from the original third weekend in October, in the hope for cooler weather. Certainly hope that's the case this year as well.

Sorry for the loss of your brother. It would be great to see you again, we are planning (with fingers crossed) to attend the rendezvous this year. Keep going amigo!

Can anyone come to the rendezvous? And what do you guys do while you're there?

Yes, anyone may attend, and are most welcome
we discuss the Superstition mountains, the Lost Dutchman Mine and just about anything else, it is a great opportunity to meet people interested in the same things, there are guest speakers there as well, most of them somewhat famous, or at least well known and respected.

I would like to attend for the first time. Could I get some more details like exactly where, camping accomodations, etc. I searched and this is the only thread I could find. I don't do facebook. Thanks

Wayne and I filmed a tube video on how to get there and what Don's Camp looks like. Listed with the legend of the superstition mountains video series. I'll be there for the weekend and will unlock the gate about noon on Fri. There is a toilet building but no water. Bring your own. Plenty of room for camping including trailers.

The 2019 Dutch Hunters Rendezvous is being held Friday, Saturday and Sunday, November 1st, 2nd and 3rd this year at the Don's Camp on Peralta road.
I have been asked to bring several maps to the Rendezvous this year:
The J. Alan Stirrat 1948 Map of the Lost Dutchman and other legendary mine areas in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona. Original copy. This map is important to all serious dutch hunters because it traces all the earliest Spanish and Mexican trails through the mountains.
All of the earliest Military Maps of the Superstitions, some are pre Fort McDowell maps, as well as maps that show the early trails from from Prescott through to Fort McDowell, Fort Verde, and the Superstition Mountains. All maps are from the 1864 - 1874 era. Total 5 maps.
Walter Gasslers map.
Also one map showing the locations of known mines and diggings as well as the location of camps of many of the early Dutch hunters.
Some of these maps like the Stirrat map are quite large. All the maps will be available to be filmed by photo or video as it is best to get close up shots of various areas on the maps rather than a long shot of the entire map.
I will be at the Rendezvous on Friday and Saturday but not Sunday. Anyone interested is welcome to take photos.
