Hey Michaelauaz,

I have off Tuesday and Wednesday. I am all for exploring on those days. I havent found any existing foundations just yet. I have been reading the book Crooked road to Holbrook and It seems alot of the activity takes place down in Black and Buckskin canyon area which is west of where i have been searching. I am looking for a ranger station and a ranch that appears on a map from 1920 but is gone on the 1940 version. What type of metal detecting are you into? I see AU in your name. Everywhere I look it says there is no gold in Navajo County. But some people in showlow report that there is absolutely gold there. I have also read that there is Rumored to be an area so rich in Apache Indian res that the nuggets are just laying on the ground. The area I have been searching is roughly 2 miles from the Apache border. I have no interest in trespassing onto the res. but there could be some deposites on this side of the border.

anyway hope to hear back from you.

Hi there,

Up in the mountains for the summer. Have some free time looking to do some archaeology and hunting in the area. I am between Overgaard and Show low. I spent some time back around FR 300 past two weeks. Looking for a few old cabins/ buildings that show on the map.

Would like to find someone to hunt with!
