1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:16,300
This series presents information based in part on theory and conjecture.

2
00:00:16,300 --> 00:00:20,822
The producer's purpose is to suggest some possible explanations but not necessarily

3
00:00:20,822 --> 00:00:29,627
the only ones to the mysteries we will examine.

4
00:00:29,627 --> 00:00:34,070
Arizona's superstition mountains have been a magnet for generations of adventurers and

5
00:00:34,070 --> 00:00:35,911
treasure hunters.

6
00:00:35,911 --> 00:00:46,837
Many who come to the mountains seeking riches never return.

7
00:00:46,837 --> 00:00:54,121
In 1860 a miner called the Dutchman staggered out of the mountains more dead than alive.

8
00:00:54,121 --> 00:00:57,122
Something had kept him going when others would have given up.

9
00:00:57,122 --> 00:01:02,125
He had been tortured by Indians and seen his partner murdered.

10
00:01:02,125 --> 00:01:06,767
For days he had traveled alone under the blazing sun.

11
00:01:06,767 --> 00:01:09,769
What was the secret that gave him the strength to survive?

12
00:01:09,769 --> 00:01:12,931
It was treasure.

13
00:01:12,931 --> 00:01:14,812
Nuggets of gold.

14
00:01:14,812 --> 00:01:18,494
The Dutchman said he'd found a mine full of it.

15
00:01:18,494 --> 00:01:24,137
He would never be strong enough to go back for more, however, and the secret of the mines

16
00:01:24,137 --> 00:01:40,145
location went with him to the grave.

17
00:01:40,145 --> 00:01:44,388
The search for treasure in the superstition mountains begins at Weaver's Needle.

18
00:01:44,388 --> 00:01:49,871
The remnant of an ancient volcano has become a beacon for adventurers.

19
00:01:49,871 --> 00:01:54,713
Some treasure hunters believe the megalith marks the center of a magic circle that contains

20
00:01:54,713 --> 00:01:58,475
the untold wealth of a lost civilization.

21
00:01:58,475 --> 00:02:03,598
Long before magic powers were attributed to the area, Spain's conquistadors penetrated

22
00:02:03,598 --> 00:02:07,720
the mountains searching for the legendary kingdom of Cebola.

23
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,883
They believed Cebola was composed of seven cities made from pure gold.

24
00:02:12,883 --> 00:02:21,848
The Spaniards even resorted to torture to pry information from the natives.

25
00:02:21,848 --> 00:02:25,930
The Apache has always related differently to the superstitions.

26
00:02:25,930 --> 00:02:32,374
They only say the mountains hide a sacred cave protected by a curse guarded by rattlesnakes

27
00:02:32,374 --> 00:02:38,537
charged with lightning bolts.

28
00:02:38,537 --> 00:02:43,820
Some say the Dutchman tore his treasure from the walls of the secret Apache cave.

29
00:02:43,820 --> 00:02:47,702
The Dutchman did claim that his partner was murdered.

30
00:02:47,702 --> 00:02:56,107
Perhaps it was an act of Apache vengeance.

31
00:02:56,107 --> 00:03:01,550
Gold has always inspired some men to act of violence and great sacrifice.

32
00:03:01,550 --> 00:03:07,553
Americans thought the metal had magic powers, that gold harnessed the energy of the sun.

33
00:03:07,553 --> 00:03:12,115
For centuries, alchemists tried to create gold in their crucibles.

34
00:03:12,115 --> 00:03:14,837
The secret always eluded them.

35
00:03:14,837 --> 00:03:18,479
Today we know that gold is one of nature's basic elements.

36
00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:23,562
It can't be broken down into any simpler substance, nor will it readily combine with another

37
00:03:23,562 --> 00:03:24,562
element.

38
00:03:24,562 --> 00:03:31,366
Thus, gold endures for all time to be sought after and measured out as the universal symbol

39
00:03:31,366 --> 00:03:34,928
of wealth.

40
00:03:34,928 --> 00:03:39,370
Since the Dutchman staggered out of the mountains with his sack of gold nuggets, no significant

41
00:03:39,370 --> 00:03:42,092
strike has been made in the superstitions.

42
00:03:42,092 --> 00:03:47,054
Yet the seekers keep coming, in spite of the lack of evidence, the harshness of the country,

43
00:03:47,054 --> 00:03:50,296
and the history of tragedy for those who've come before.

44
00:03:50,296 --> 00:03:54,338
It's an obsession, seemingly shared by most gold hunters.

45
00:03:54,338 --> 00:03:57,740
Some look for lost minds, like the Dutchmans.

46
00:03:57,740 --> 00:04:02,102
prospectors are after the legendary vein of pure gold, flowing like a river of yellow

47
00:04:02,102 --> 00:04:05,184
metal from the planet's molten core.

48
00:04:05,184 --> 00:04:11,948
This they call the mother load.

49
00:04:11,948 --> 00:04:17,031
Once prospectors had only intuition and simple tools to pursue their quest.

50
00:04:17,031 --> 00:04:21,193
Now they have metal detectors and Geiger counters.

51
00:04:21,193 --> 00:04:25,555
Intuition still plays a big part.

52
00:04:25,555 --> 00:04:30,798
Pat Boll is a retired science professor, recently turned prospector.

53
00:04:30,798 --> 00:04:38,082
His intuition paid off with an offer of $15,000 for an unusual sample of gold-bearing rock.

54
00:04:38,082 --> 00:04:44,686
I got $13,000 this spring when I sold it, gave some to the government, and ended up

55
00:04:44,686 --> 00:04:51,489
with $9,000 for the 20 minutes work with a pick.

56
00:04:51,489 --> 00:04:54,851
This will make a prospector out of anybody.

57
00:04:54,851 --> 00:05:03,015
Pat Boll may never find the vein of pure gold, but he has that fever now called the gold bug.

58
00:05:03,015 --> 00:05:07,658
It has driven other men to chip, blast, and borrow in the earth, searching for the ultimate

59
00:05:07,658 --> 00:05:09,539
source.

60
00:05:09,539 --> 00:05:20,705
The stampede that follows a strike is called a gold rush.

61
00:05:20,705 --> 00:05:28,069
In 1878, a rush hit Bodie, California like a flash flood.

62
00:05:28,069 --> 00:05:33,432
Known only as a place where miners could occasionally scrape out an alpha ore to live on, Bodie suddenly

63
00:05:33,432 --> 00:05:40,236
became a boom town, producing $200,000 a month in gold bullion.

64
00:05:40,236 --> 00:05:45,679
The town grew from a three-family prospector camp to a thriving community of 800 buildings

65
00:05:45,679 --> 00:05:57,125
and 10,000 people almost instantly.

66
00:05:57,125 --> 00:06:09,532
Two years after it began, the boom was over.

67
00:06:09,532 --> 00:06:20,417
A year later, the town was nearly empty.

68
00:06:20,417 --> 00:06:25,180
How often this phenomenon occurred across the gold fields isn't known for sure.

69
00:06:25,180 --> 00:06:31,664
No one remembers what happened to camps like Sucker Town, Gage Eye, Red Dog, and Hardtack.

70
00:06:31,664 --> 00:06:41,669
The gold didn't last long enough for them to have a past, much less a future.

71
00:06:41,669 --> 00:06:52,115
Today, many treasure hunters hear echoes of the gold rush and believe any one of a thousand

72
00:06:52,115 --> 00:06:58,158
tunnels that perforate the western mountains could tap the mother load, or the lost Dutchman's

73
00:06:58,158 --> 00:07:00,719
mine.

74
00:07:00,719 --> 00:07:06,963
While preparing his book on the Dutchman legend, Robert Blair studied gold miners and dreamers.

75
00:07:06,963 --> 00:07:11,245
He concludes that without mineral evidence, miners wouldn't search the superstitions for

76
00:07:11,245 --> 00:07:12,526
gold.

77
00:07:12,526 --> 00:07:15,247
Dreamers, however, might.

78
00:07:15,247 --> 00:07:19,129
I suppose people go looking for the lost Dutchman for their own reasons.

79
00:07:19,129 --> 00:07:22,691
I can only speculate what those reasons are, but I think that a great many of these people

80
00:07:22,691 --> 00:07:28,734
who search in such an unpromising location for gold as the superstitions are going more

81
00:07:28,734 --> 00:07:35,218
for the adventure than they are for any serious expectation of finding a rich gold mine.

82
00:07:35,218 --> 00:07:40,661
I think they're going for their own reasons as far as their own psychology is concerned,

83
00:07:40,661 --> 00:07:44,023
but perhaps it's an acting out of fantasy.

84
00:07:44,023 --> 00:07:47,985
It's one of the few places in the United States today which is unchanged.

85
00:07:47,985 --> 00:07:48,985
It's a wilderness area.

86
00:07:48,985 --> 00:07:51,867
There are no motor vehicles in there.

87
00:07:51,867 --> 00:07:53,948
It's almost like the old Wild West.

88
00:07:53,948 --> 00:07:57,870
When men went in with guns, fought it out among themselves.

89
00:07:57,870 --> 00:08:02,433
Looking for a lost mine, maybe the threat of apaches is in the minds of some of these

90
00:08:02,433 --> 00:08:03,433
men.

91
00:08:03,433 --> 00:08:07,115
Maybe the man finds that when he's in the mountains that he becomes another person.

92
00:08:07,115 --> 00:08:09,597
He becomes more manly.

93
00:08:09,597 --> 00:08:15,520
The machismo effect may be working in the minds of those men who dig so endlessly in the superstitions

94
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,722
and so fruitlessly.

95
00:08:19,722 --> 00:08:25,565
In 1931, an event took place which focused national attention on the superstitions and

96
00:08:25,565 --> 00:08:30,568
this apparently is what has preserved the legend to this day.

97
00:08:30,568 --> 00:08:38,252
On a scorching summer day, a retired Washington bureaucrat, Adolf Ruth, rode into the superstitions.

98
00:08:38,252 --> 00:08:42,815
Carrying maps he believed would pinpoint the lost Dutchman mine, he struck out for Weaver's

99
00:08:42,815 --> 00:08:43,815
Needle.

100
00:08:44,816 --> 00:08:52,580
A 66-year-old greenhorn, Ruth had no idea of the danger he faced.

101
00:08:52,580 --> 00:08:58,543
He'd spoken freely about his maps, saying he was confident they were genuine.

102
00:08:58,543 --> 00:09:09,949
Ruth seemed oblivious to the temptation his maps represented.

103
00:09:09,949 --> 00:09:14,432
Six months from the day he set out with his cowboy guides, an archeological party would

104
00:09:14,432 --> 00:09:16,673
find Ruth's skull.

105
00:09:16,673 --> 00:09:21,636
News of Ruth's mysterious death would not discourage others from trying.

106
00:09:21,636 --> 00:09:26,959
Hundreds would come to the superstitions looking for the now famous Dutchman mine.

107
00:09:26,959 --> 00:09:35,083
Like Ruth, men would find only tragedy.

108
00:09:35,083 --> 00:09:38,205
The superstitions have claimed hundreds of lives.

109
00:09:38,205 --> 00:09:40,966
Every year, the toll climbs.

110
00:09:40,966 --> 00:09:44,368
Some perish from too much sun and lack of water.

111
00:09:44,368 --> 00:09:47,890
Some die violently and mysteriously.

112
00:09:47,890 --> 00:09:53,093
Sightseers usually seek out an experienced guide for survival.

113
00:09:53,093 --> 00:09:57,415
Treasure hunters, however, only want help to reach a specific point.

114
00:09:57,415 --> 00:10:04,179
For many who go on alone, pacmaster and guide Jerry Crater is the last man they will ever

115
00:10:04,179 --> 00:10:05,179
see.

116
00:10:05,179 --> 00:10:13,584
I've been running a packing business in this country with my brother since 1968-69.

117
00:10:13,584 --> 00:10:17,986
We pack prospectors, tourists, sightseers.

118
00:10:17,986 --> 00:10:21,868
The large end of the business is packing prospectors as a search for the lost Dutchman.

119
00:10:21,868 --> 00:10:24,550
We don't pack as many prospectors as we do treasure seekers.

120
00:10:24,550 --> 00:10:28,032
There's a big difference between treasure seekers and prospectors.

121
00:10:28,032 --> 00:10:32,714
Prospectors are looking for a vein, a clue in the middle, and treasure seekers are operating

122
00:10:32,714 --> 00:10:36,756
from some map they picked up in the bar or something that their great uncle handed down

123
00:10:36,756 --> 00:10:39,598
to them, but they're looking for clues.

124
00:10:39,598 --> 00:10:43,200
Dutchman hunters come from all walks of life, all parts of the country.

125
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,281
You have very wealthy men.

126
00:10:45,281 --> 00:10:50,644
You have the fellow that Hocktie's mother watched to rent a horse and get in here.

127
00:10:50,644 --> 00:10:55,487
And if they have a common denominator, it would be the same one that a religious fanatic

128
00:10:55,487 --> 00:10:59,249
cast.

129
00:10:59,249 --> 00:11:00,249
They believe.

130
00:11:00,249 --> 00:11:11,695
The chances of making a gold strike only based on mineral evidence are 10,000 to one.

131
00:11:11,695 --> 00:11:13,336
Some hedge their bet.

132
00:11:13,336 --> 00:11:17,378
They look for gold in the rock and in legend too.

133
00:11:17,378 --> 00:11:20,540
Jay Heston is a prospector and goldmine.

134
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:25,183
He claims no bonanzas, but he has found gold.

135
00:11:25,183 --> 00:11:29,265
One day I thought I would look into the lost Dutchman mine down in Arizona.

136
00:11:29,265 --> 00:11:33,867
But the more I looked, the more I realized I was looking for adventure or something to

137
00:11:33,867 --> 00:11:36,549
do more than I was looking for a mine.

138
00:11:36,549 --> 00:11:38,150
I don't think there's a mine there at all.

139
00:11:38,150 --> 00:11:42,592
I think maybe somebody may have left off some treasure at one time or another, but I think

140
00:11:42,592 --> 00:11:48,675
it's a long since lost.

141
00:11:48,675 --> 00:11:54,278
With his lucky walking stick, he scours the west looking for more, a tedious and often

142
00:11:54,278 --> 00:12:00,802
dangerous venture.

143
00:12:00,802 --> 00:12:05,845
Since large gold deposits seldom lie on the surface, prospectors often use dynamite to

144
00:12:05,845 --> 00:12:08,446
blast out rock samples.

145
00:12:08,446 --> 00:12:13,689
More lost limbs and broken bodies can be attributed to accidents with dynamite than any other

146
00:12:13,689 --> 00:12:18,932
peril the prospector faces.

147
00:12:18,932 --> 00:12:25,936
prospectors may shoot thousands of holes without hitting a rich vein of gold ore.

148
00:12:49,468 --> 00:12:56,472
Park marked with prospectors' holes, parts of the mountains look like the beachhead at

149
00:12:57,393 --> 00:12:59,114
Normandy on D-Day.

150
00:12:59,114 --> 00:13:06,117
If your intuition is right, if your luck is right, you sometimes pick up some gold.

151
00:13:06,678 --> 00:13:09,839
You're always looking for something better than what you've got.

152
00:13:09,839 --> 00:13:13,201
The astrologers say that gold is related to the sun.

153
00:13:13,201 --> 00:13:15,202
Maybe we're looking for that.

154
00:13:16,203 --> 00:13:20,205
I've never seen gold in the rock before I came here.

155
00:13:20,205 --> 00:13:25,208
You take a rock off of a piece of property you've bought and you break it up.

156
00:13:25,208 --> 00:13:31,211
You swirl the water around in a pan and you see gold and there's something fascinating

157
00:13:31,211 --> 00:13:38,215
about it.

158
00:13:38,215 --> 00:13:45,219
Weaver's needle is synonymous with the glint of gold for those who go in search of the

159
00:13:45,499 --> 00:13:47,900
lost Dutchman mine.

160
00:13:47,900 --> 00:13:52,222
The quest inevitably leads to the Apache Indians.

161
00:13:52,222 --> 00:13:56,625
Sometimes Superstition Mountain, the way the Apache talks about it, sort of reminds me

162
00:13:56,625 --> 00:14:02,268
of a place in Florida where the astronaut take off to go to outer space because there's

163
00:14:02,268 --> 00:14:06,270
a place to go where you take off to the other world.

164
00:14:07,271 --> 00:14:14,274
Philip Cassador is a traditional Apache in a modern world.

165
00:14:14,274 --> 00:14:18,276
He has spent most of his life studying the ways of his people.

166
00:14:18,276 --> 00:14:24,280
He's also a medicine man with deep knowledge of ancient Apache ritual and mythology.

167
00:14:29,282 --> 00:14:35,286
To the Apache, I think the lost Dutchman's mine has two different story about it.

168
00:14:35,286 --> 00:14:41,289
One is what the white men tell and one what the Apache tells.

169
00:14:41,289 --> 00:14:46,292
I think there's a Apache when they talk about it, I think they talk about the secret cave.

170
00:14:46,292 --> 00:14:51,294
And in that secret cave is a lost Dutchman's mine.

171
00:14:56,297 --> 00:15:00,299
The Mountain Spirit Dance celebrates the earth's creation.

172
00:15:00,299 --> 00:15:07,303
Apaches say the Mountain Spirits protect the superstitions and any violence or tragedy attributed to the Apaches

173
00:15:07,303 --> 00:15:11,305
is really the work of the spirits who live in the sacred cave.

174
00:15:11,305 --> 00:15:15,307
The Apache Secret Cave is a very secret cave.

175
00:15:15,307 --> 00:15:21,311
It's a very difficult thing to get inside of it, you know, because at one side at the entrance

176
00:15:21,311 --> 00:15:26,313
there's a female rattlesnake and on one side there's a male rattlesnake

177
00:15:26,313 --> 00:15:32,317
and there's two cups, you know, that's made out of abalone shell, one for a female and one for a male.

178
00:15:32,317 --> 00:15:37,319
And to get inside of it, you have to have the blue stone and the white stone.

179
00:15:37,319 --> 00:15:42,322
The white stone, if you're a female, then you put it into the abalone shell

180
00:15:42,322 --> 00:15:49,326
and then the rattlesnake will come apart and then you can go in there in that secret cave.

181
00:15:49,326 --> 00:15:53,328
Not only do people that go up there, they don't carry the blue stone

182
00:15:53,328 --> 00:15:58,331
and they don't know the prayer that the Apache pray before they go into that mountain.

183
00:15:58,331 --> 00:16:03,333
The prayer is only made for the Apache and that mountain is set there for a purpose

184
00:16:03,333 --> 00:16:05,335
and that purpose is for Apache.

185
00:16:05,335 --> 00:16:12,338
And so if they go in there without these kind of things, it can change your whole body and soul,

186
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:17,341
your mind and everything because you touch something that should not be touched.

187
00:16:18,342 --> 00:16:27,346
How the Dutchman's mine and the sacred cave became entwined is a mystery to the Apache.

188
00:16:27,346 --> 00:16:33,350
They maintain, however, that looking for gold is no excuse for violating the cave.

189
00:16:34,350 --> 00:16:40,353
Mysteries are Glenn McGill's business. He's a private detective in Oklahoma City.

190
00:16:40,353 --> 00:16:45,356
Patience and attention to detail are the virtues of his trade.

191
00:16:45,356 --> 00:16:51,359
McGill believes with the right techniques that any mystery can be solved,

192
00:16:51,359 --> 00:16:55,362
including the whereabouts of the lost Dutchman mine.

193
00:16:55,362 --> 00:16:59,364
The lost Dutchman mine is a different world altogether.

194
00:16:59,364 --> 00:17:04,367
It's out of character for us who are in the investigation business to get involved in this sort of thing.

195
00:17:04,367 --> 00:17:06,368
Far out, as you might say.

196
00:17:06,368 --> 00:17:12,371
In 1963, a group of Denver attorneys hired McGill to find the mine.

197
00:17:15,372 --> 00:17:20,375
With conviction and a spirit of adventure, he took the case.

198
00:17:20,375 --> 00:17:26,378
McGill thinks he found the mine in 1966, but not the vein of gold.

199
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:35,383
In the fall of 1976, an amateur photographer documented McGill's 49th expedition into the superstitions.

200
00:17:38,385 --> 00:17:43,388
McGill admits spending thousands of dollars, as well as sacrificing family relations

201
00:17:43,388 --> 00:17:45,389
and business opportunities.

202
00:17:45,389 --> 00:17:52,393
He is confident that he now knows where the gold is and believes the payoff will match the sacrifice.

203
00:17:53,393 --> 00:17:58,396
Glenn's come into focus at this very specific spot in the superstition mountains.

204
00:17:58,396 --> 00:18:03,399
The maps, the legend, the statements, the history of the mine.

205
00:18:03,399 --> 00:18:06,400
He's been working on this for a long time.

206
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,402
He's been working on this for a long time.

207
00:18:09,402 --> 00:18:16,406
In the very specific spot in the superstition mountains, the maps, the legend, the statements, the witnesses,

208
00:18:16,406 --> 00:18:22,409
our investigation, the evidence all comes together at one spot, and that's where we're digging.

209
00:18:22,409 --> 00:18:30,413
If our estimates are right and we believe that they are, then the mine itself is composed of a vein of gold that is over 18 miles long.

210
00:18:30,413 --> 00:18:35,416
McGill also believes the mine carries a curse that may be influencing his life.

211
00:18:36,416 --> 00:18:41,419
It's no doubt taken some tolls upon me and my family and some of my very close friends.

212
00:18:41,419 --> 00:18:46,422
You might even say that it's been responsible for shortening my life to some degree.

213
00:18:46,422 --> 00:18:51,425
I'm not in the best of health today as I was when I first started this investigation.

214
00:18:54,426 --> 00:19:02,431
Whether there is magic in Wheeler's needle or not, it will undoubtedly remain the lodestone for new generations of seekers.

215
00:19:06,433 --> 00:19:16,438
The Dutchman said he found gold there. If it happened once, it could happen again.

216
00:19:21,441 --> 00:19:27,444
Dutchman hunters have never been popular among the Apaches, who still regard the superstition mountains as sacred.

217
00:19:27,444 --> 00:19:33,447
The environmentalists don't like gold seekers either. They want to preserve the mountain as a wilderness area.

218
00:19:33,447 --> 00:19:37,449
The Apaches and the environmentalists have won their case in Congress.

219
00:19:37,449 --> 00:19:43,453
In 1984, the superstition mountains will be off limits to treasure hunters and prospectors.

220
00:19:43,453 --> 00:19:48,455
Passing a law is one thing. Banishing a dream is another.

221
00:19:48,455 --> 00:19:54,459
The dream is constantly being revived by stories like the one told by prospector Milt Rose.

222
00:19:54,459 --> 00:20:02,463
I talked to three men who were with the Dutchman when he died and helped draw the mass that he drew.

223
00:20:02,463 --> 00:20:09,467
They drew me a map of the thing and put all the names and things on it that should be there.

224
00:20:09,467 --> 00:20:12,468
And then I went to look for it from there and found it.

225
00:20:12,468 --> 00:20:21,473
And there was a gold there and I got about $18,000 out of a pocket, which it proved to be and it didn't last very long.

226
00:20:21,473 --> 00:20:28,477
The lost Dutchman mind has no relation to the superstitions or to the Wheeler's needle.

227
00:20:29,478 --> 00:20:34,480
It is in the four peaks country at about 4,800 feet and a big canyon.

228
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:40,484
My personal feeling about the lost Dutchman mind is that there's more gold in my back teeth than there is in this whole range of mountains.

229
00:20:40,484 --> 00:20:46,487
And I just don't believe it's here. I've packed them in for ten years and we have to pack our sample out.

230
00:20:46,487 --> 00:20:52,490
Even if you ground up the superstition mountains and ran them through a sieve and found not one ounce of gold,

231
00:20:52,490 --> 00:20:57,493
there are those who would say you should have dug a foot down deeper and you would have found the real gold.

232
00:20:58,493 --> 00:21:02,496
People dream. They hear these stories and they're greedy.

233
00:21:02,496 --> 00:21:09,499
They think that God meant them to find this gold and preserved it for them and they're going to go and find it so they go in there for the thousands.

234
00:21:09,499 --> 00:21:17,504
There was over 10,000 people from 1878 to 1891 in the superstitions before the Dutchman died and left his legend.

235
00:21:18,504 --> 00:21:24,508
Tonight on the History Channel, some called it a wartime experiment in civility.

236
00:21:24,508 --> 00:21:31,511
Hitler's men had expected to be tortured or forced into hard labor. What actually happened to them was quite surprising.
