Has anyone here gone to look for the chests in cave w/skeletons at Guadalupe Peak?
Like other stories of found and lost, it remains hidden again.// Tks. Parker, TX

Heard about it but never looked for it. Have you researched it? Are you planning to go hunt?

[texan connection]

I could go for that one also

Maybe if we can do a little research, find property owners and get permission, we could get a group together to go hunt.

I'll start lookin into it, But I have to ask, Are 4 girls from Florida coming ?

[piggman1]

That's what I'm wondering too.

Have any of you ever hiked up to Guadalupe peak? I have and I gotta say it's one heck of a tough trail. About 3000 feet in elevation change. Then there's the small matter of it being a NATIONAL PARK. http://www.nps.gov/gumo/
Suffice to say any metal detecting would be a sure fire way to lose your detector and acquire a hefty fine. There's far easier game than this guys.

Besides the above objections
Why in the world would you need a MD to find a CAVE ?
A set of good legs and a pair of Binoculars would be a lot better!

just a reminder, treasure hunting is illegal in national parks. Making most of the places to look for the sublett mine off limits, unless your going to the rustler hills location.

am up for a search. This is near a well known spring.

Sublett mine is not by the guadaluepe peak. It is actually farther east towards carlsbad. At least I am hoping. according to one story from his son. he was lowered on a rope to the cave above where a creek or water was this cliff was about 100 feet up and the cave was about half way down. Now that all depends on whether this story is correct or not but according to the interview with his son back then that is what he said. Usuing old battle maps of the buffalo soldiers and old railway maps. the story also said he was never successfully followed, and i have figured that one out as well. he made one big trip he started from odessa and headed south crossing the pecos by the gila sycamore canyon area well north of there by a few miles. also explains why treasure was found there(maybe). then he turned north through the rough terrain until he reached the mountains where he would have to cross to get to his cave. I took a look around with my wife one weekend. found a cave from the bottom of a creek bed. Pretty decent opening, but you have to rappel as it is impossible to climb. I hope someone finds it. I am trying to find the sublett mine, I also have been metal detecting around victorio using old military maps from the 30's but no luck so far. I can tell you the cave opening isn't locked anymore. and the cabello mountains are next. wish the army did not use artillery on the east side of the organ mountains since there are several caves up those slopes and a few are getting bigger, but nobody is allowed up there since it is an impact area.
