  3. Anyone want to talk about this giant 5-pointed star on Buzzard's Roost, Arizona?

  6. Dutchmans Lost Mine

    Dutchman's Lost Mine I believe Jacob Waltz said he covered his mine with wood planks and rocks, rubble, etc. Does anybody know if wood planks were found when they began work at the Bulldog mine? This info would help determine whether the Bulldog mine is the same as the Dutchman's.
