Good afternoon fish,
I was born and raised in the area, and have spent a lot of time around the canyon (Wellsboro area), I am very much into local history. I have never heard or read of any treasures there. If you can give me a little information , I may be able to find more for you. I have many history books of this area.

Greetings Fishandhunt_2005,
There is a lost payroll shipment from the Civil War in your area, don't recall the details but a wagon loaded with gold was attacked by "Copperheads" (Southern sympathizers) and lost, only a single bar of gold ever being found, the single find being discovered in a dead tree. I will try to find the details on this one, may take a while.

"The one thing I remember about Christmas was that my father used to take me out in a boat about ten miles offshore on Christmas Day, and I used to have to swim back. Extraordinary. It was a ritual. Mind you, that wasn't the hard part. The difficult bit was getting out of the sack." –John Cleese
