Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

@AshtonPage You make many (very) good points. Like you - I have always believed Sims (as you put it: because of his integrity) first and foremost. However, your musings about Waltz providing both facts and fiction makes an awful lot of sense - *sigh* so I guess its back to square one and complete re...

Re: THE MASSACRE GROUNDS

I have wondered about the same - but - then he wouldn't call it a 'mine', would he? He would have said he had caches ... (Well, he did say caches, but he also referred to a 'mine') But like everything else in this convoluted story, where nothing seems to be etched in stone - just _who_ does one beli...

Re: Kollenborn Chronicles Discussions

I am disappointed. Yes, TomK obviously does not agree with the Peralta Stones and the conclusions (or lack thereof) that some favour. That is no reason to attack him for being 'double-faced' - I have read more and had more information about the Superstition Mountains from the Chronicles than from an...

Re: CIBOLA ZUNI TRIP - silent hunter

SH - thank you ever so much for your sharing! It must have been alltogether a wonderful experience - and it smart not to reveal too much (map/photo-wise) I believe I have to echo Oroblanco (I just hope he doesn't have a copyright on it!!): "May you find the treasures you seek" The best of ...

Re: Dowsing for Ores

I seem to be one of the 'blessed' ones as far as dowsing is concerned, but I have never tried it on minerals. Back where I come from we tend to use a Y-forked fresh twig - and I have had it almost twisting the bark off in my hands when crossing a water-vein. I know there are many sceptics, I can't l...

Re: THE HOLMES MANUSCRIPT

Jim, Thank you - that attitude is much appreciated. Yes I am interested - the big dream (obviously) is to just nonchantantly trek into the mountains and find IT, but I have absolutely no ambitions about actually succeeding. As has been repeated time and time again - the reward is in the chase itself...

Re: THE HOLMES MANUSCRIPT

OK so I'm a 'free-rider' - I read but I don't contribute. I still think it would be a crying shame if this forum was resticted to contributors only. I can also give my reasons for not contributing ... I know some, but I do not have the time to indulge in research - this is the nearest I will get to ...
