Nice pic, Seems like a safari hunting trip. Let me guess, the person who took the picture has a rifle too and a huge knife.
Thanks,
It’s beautiful in those mountains. Maybe one day you can make it out there, if you haven’t. šŸ‘

Edit: you can always pretend you are on safari if that’s your thing šŸ¤“

Wyatt,
Since I started this thread, I get notified when someone posts to it.
I’m curious to the motive behind your post, since most folk would not agree with what you said.

If you have something to contribute, that’s one thing, but it seems you are off topic, and kicking a hornets nest. 🫤

I was only commenting to entertain myself. Obviously August would be the worst time of the year to go, lol. Just didn't like the "know it all" snarky comments from old Gary here. It is amazing to me that out-of-staters think they will just figure out the location from reading online and looking at maps, then expect to find something within the two weeks of being here. I don't know whether it's arrogance, ego, or just plain stupidity.

Wyatt,
I’m just as guilty of making comments, ones that provoke.
I can’t really say too much 🄓

So, are you a searcher of the LDM?

I try to just point people in the right direction. Some take it hard with what I say, but most I post to help get them on the right train of thinking to get them to where they need to looking. Lots of misdirection has been posted over time. I try to help weed out them misdirections without giving too much out. Just like el hoyo isn't the ldm.
🤷 In the end everyone has to follow what they believe. Gl all.

Doc,
Thanks for filling us in šŸ¤“

The post you quoted was for Wyatt_DH.
I saw that he hasn’t posted much, and was giving him opportunity to share.

I am a searcher for the history of it, whether the mine is found or not I could honestly not care less. I am far more interested in the exploration and adventure part of it all, then actually finding the mine to put it in other words. I have some ideas of where it would be, but they are only that, ideas. Hewitt canyon specifically in my opinion. Nobody has truly ever explored that area and if they have they are lying, it is far too big and steep for even the best hiker out there, and it runs all the way up to Rogers Trough. You would need rope access to certain parts just to even see around some corners up those massive slopes and rock faces.

What is your opinion on its whereabouts? More west or more east? I have always thought it would be further east than people might think. Those mountains hold so many more minerals than those in the likes of Goldfield.

East or west superstition wilderness. The wilderness area has a general outline on a map, I was talking east or west as far as that goes. Did Jakob Waltz ever say weavers needle or did he only say a pointed rock that looked like a knife? Weavers needle was named back then, so I don’t understand why he wouldn’t just say weavers needle if he actually wanted them to find it.

I used to think all kinds of stuff. I went looking West side, East side, but east side definitely has more mineralization. Does that mean the LDM is on the east side?
😁 no, just means more mineralization to find.

As you all know, I am a clues guy. I try to work the clues… and there has still been progress.
The location of the inclined shaft high up above, at first seemed to have very little for pinpointing precise location….. but just as the clue for finding the hidden camp came to life, a couple years back, there are clues I missed … read right passed, but then there it was … all along.
It is not pinpointed down to the foot, like the mine directly across of the camp, but it’s narrowed down to a very small area.

The saga is nearly finished. šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜Ž
