Re: JIM HATT
Glad I had an opportunity to hike with him last fall one time and meet him in person. He certainly fit the profile of one of "Coronado's Children," and his passing leaves yet another hole in the history of the Superstitions and Lost Dutchman Mine. Rest in peace and my condolences to his wi...

Re: CALALUS
Thanks PWP - good reminder for me to check and doublecheck the weather forecasts for my trip. I always bring along long underwear out there - especially after my camping trip to Reavis Ranch a couple years ago when I darn near froze trying to sleep on the ground.

Re: CALALUS
Paul, I just received some information today, and it looks like Jack and Bernice pointed the way into the Superstition Mountains for the Calalus migration theories. It seems probable that the Bent's believed in the authenticity of the Tucson Artifacts, and had that idea bolstered by the few profess...

Re: 2011 Rendezvous
NP Wayne - anyplace I haven't seen yet is good with me. Depending on what other plans I end up putting together I may be able to go with you Sunday - I have such a short time to visit and am trying to pack in so many different things - not sure what I will or won't be able to do, but I'll try.

I've never been a student of astronomy Ben unfortunately.

Re: Looking to buy metal detector..

Re: Looking to buy metal detector..
This probably isn't the best forum to look for lots of advice on purchasing a detector. If I were you, I would go to the forum I linked below and you'll see plenty of different topic threads (some for specific detector brands) where you can ask your questions and get lots more feedback. Some informa...

I'm going to keep watching Ebay and might check some used bookstores down in Boston just on the off chance that someone ...

Why is this book so expensive?
I've been watching for a good deal on "Al Sieber - Chief of Scouts" by Dan Thrapp, but it's ridiculously expensive usually selling for $100 - $300+. The publisher is/was the University of Oklahoma Press with (I believe) an first edition printing in 1964 and a reprint in 1995. All I can thi...

I may have come across one somewhere, but I can't recall - are there photographs of the Latin Heart before it was supposedly destroyed? I believe all I've seen are drawings and maybe a photo of a replica.

Oz should have been destroyed 10 years ago. Perhaps it should have been - That way I would never have heard about it and invested myself in it as much as I did. In my opinion, every now and then in a lifetime a person has to make a choice to believe or not believe in something without ever seeing a...
