Mr Roberts has refused to reply to PMs I have sent him in the past, when he first joined T-net.

I don't know what came first, the chicken or the egg. Period documents indicate Novinger was prospecting in the 4 Peaks area, was wounded pretty badly, taken to Ft McDowell, then lived out his days in Phx. Ely's version has Novinger heading from CA to Rich Hill based on accounts from an Indian capt...

Please do continue!

Thank you Joe!

Mr Roberts recently posted on another forum that he knew Walt Gassler and was his friend; Walt died in 1984. Does anyone here know when Mr Roberts arrived in Arizona, (the year is enough)? Thank you in advance.

Well perhaps you are right Joe about the horseback riding being a torture. However there are a number of different organizations that use horseback riding as a literal therapy for many disabling ailments, including paralysis. This is what I was referring to, not to simply clamber onto a jughead hors...

PS to Ronn - if you can not get into the Wilderness Area - not all is lost, for outside of the Wilderness area boundaries are some of the more highly mineralized areas anyway. It is entirely possible that the LDM is actually outside the Wilderness anyway. The story of Waltz leading his followers dee...

I think the lawsuit idea is super. There are old roads that were bulldozed shut, and have created a more dangerous situation in the case of fires and or emergencies. Lawsuits are how the protectionists get the over restrictive regulations put in place and seems to be the only way these non-elected g...

Tag post, very interesting! Please do continue.

Mike McChesney wrote TNet has been a refuge for the "Cloud Chasers" and nutjobs. Well now you know why I was hanging around there! I hope this forum does get back to life. I realize that people can get sick of re-hashing and having to re-educate the newbies over and over, but we were all n...

Sorry I am late to the dance, but want to add that I am in agreement with Greenhorn about Dick Holmes. However, as you pointed out, Holmes must have believed that Waltz had a gold mine for he spent the rest of his life searching for it, and followed by his son Brownie, and to this day by Brownie's p...

Thanks Ozarker for saving your posts, I had read them on T-net but did not save copies as I did not expect it all to vanish.

One good thing of the downhill trend of T-net, is that has breathed new life into this forum; wish that we could get along a bit better though.

The feeling is mutual Donald - I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
Roy

Whoops - make that Merry Christmas! <wish we could make corrections>

Hola amigos,
Many of you are familiar with the story of Wagoner's lost ledge of rose quartz gold; I would like to hear any opinions/facts/theories, thank you in advance.

Merry Chritsmas to you all,
Oroblanco

Joe - thank you for posting this thread; it is dangerous to speak the truth sometimes, when liars and frauds will not hesitate to resort to lawsuits and threats to silence anyone that speaks the truth about them. I hope you will expand on this start. Donald , thank you for standing up for the truth...

Pippin - I did not know that you had gotten banned, and the reasons are almost incredibly childish for a moderator. I have no reason to doubt your word. I feel responsible, as I was the one whom had posted (in response to another testy post by Charlie Brown, whomever she/he really is) that artifacts...

Somehiker wrote I am familiar with the history of the copper scroll,as well as that of the other dead sea scrolls. But the known history and timeline of all of the carved stones,as opposed to unrelated native or spanish petroglyphs,found within the area by these various individuals makes the possibi...

Thanks for posting this Randy, another sad tragedy.

Hola amigos, Somehiker wrote Roy or anyone: If a recognizable series of features...markings/symbols,closely matching this series on the lower trail map,for example...and in the same order...what might be the meaning ? Would each have it's own translation,or if very closely spaced,would they read lik...

I would only add that one is extremely unlikely to find a well hidden mine or cache of gold if you are hiking as fast as you can across country. Taking it slow usually works out better.

Roy, Here's the thing.....I would still like to see one (1), authenticated , Spanish map that uses any of these symbols in the manner described in the various treasure books. Just one. :roll: Take care, Joe Hoo boy - I am the wrong guy for that task; I personally do not have any faith in treasure m...
