Mysteries in the Mountains

cptbil · Apr 21, 2008

Has anyone done any research on a story/legend about a Spanish Treasure pack train,
heading south, camping near a spring, when one of the members
was wondering around, found a small opening
There was a fairly well used trail, that is what lead him to find it
Anyhow, he entered the opening and found a large size cavern, just a short ways into the
cave
He reported that the walls "glistened like Red/silver stars"!
The sample of the "wall" that he brought out was later ID'd as what we call today, "Ruby Silver"
This "campsite" and "SilverCavern", I have found out, is a couple of miles, &, I mean 2-3 miles, north of the border
Near "Pajarito Peak"
Which can be seen from the campsite!
I have the location down pretty close
I am just looking for confirmation of my area !
ANY HELP ?

Why don't you give it up!
You Know Buck:
I still have, way back in my "Saved T'Net Posts"
The one where you said that I never show up!
And !
Reminded you, that you had told me, at the restaurant, that you were going to head north that week end,
For some nugget shooting !
And!
You said that you did remember that!
Remember Now ?

It might be nice to take the petty, childish squabbles to PM's so the rest of us don't have to wade through them to get to the topics of the threads.

Why don't you two take this B.S. to private e-mail or PM's ??

I see where the moderator/admin as already asked for this type of behavier to stop.Which, the both of you have choosen to ignore. Keep it up and I'll be looking for the mod/admin to issue a month's time out.

Give it a break Mr. Deney.. Jeeze that's the kind of response we'd expect of a 6 year old, not an adult with the credentials you claim.

cptbild · Apr 24, 2008

But!
I WAS! kind of hoping that Mr. Buck got it (Too!)

Hear that! was down by LSD it was ok until the breeze stopped! I'd tell Mr. Deney, but he can't answer a simple question without a bunch of diversions, can't get him to call you Buck as requested, can't get him to respond without childish responses. Guess some people are untrainable & don't play well with others :wink:

$:-\$ Did you find your 1905 map? I'll Look in my collection when I get back in. Talk to you later my friend!

BTW Check out the post a couple back by Wizzard. Might solve your map problem. The guy found a great one!

Hmmmmm.... I'm planning a couple 2 week long trips to AZ this fall/winter... I think this might be the concentration of one of the trips now. I wonder how dangerous it is with all the drug smuggling and what not going on at the border??

aquadood · Jun 5, 2008

It depends on the area. However, it is always a good idea to travel in groups and carry a weapon.

cptbil · Jun 21, 2008

WITT459:
Thanks !!
& Yep!
I am right in the middle of that...I have pulled the cam & (pushed)the bearings and will be replacing it with an "Edelbrock" Cam that is supposed to
increase low speed torque .... good for heavy 4x4'ing :tongue3:

BUT!
It will also INCREASE the MPG on the highway! :icon_sunny:

Along with increasing the MPG,
I am also going to be installing a "Hydrogen Generator" to (hopefully) get a few more MPGs :thumbsup:

DSRTXJ:
The "Border Area" is alive with Illegals, Drug Smugglers, &! Even "Terrorists"

crossing over, by day and night
GO ARMED!
And!
By all means have a good "Watch DOG!"
One, that alerts ! (BARKS) you to unwelcome company
One of the best, that I had was, a medium size "Heeler"
She could hear/smell, a "grasshopper" @ 100 yds! :wink:

DSRTXJ

You could join up (meet) with "Doc" & I
When are you are Planning to "head out" ?
We'll be leaving from here, C.C. TX, about the first week or so, in Sept ??

I think I asked that question about 6 years ago. Never did get and answer, Cptbild said it was there. I read it fell down. He said it was still up?? You would think now days someone who has been there could give a GPS coordinates.

I read the guy's story. Googled him and found more sites with his story. One said the arch fell. They went back years later and there was another arch there. Not as tall as the first one. Pretty strange! Definitely a mystery!
