Senner's Gold topic...

Both. In the early 50's Travis, Phil and Bob Garman found a cache. 3 million in crushed gold ore. It was near Byous Butte. Larry has 2 good videos on the tube. Mysteries of the Superstition Mountains on the subject. Byous not Weavers is the needle everyone should have been looking at. Including Ruth.

What is your opinion for the western or southern side of the Supers for possible spanish caches?
I would say search a area your interested in. It helps if you have a idea what your looking for. 90 percent research and 10 percent footwork. I think there are very few available targets. Very few!

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I've been doing some research when the weather was hot. Now that the weather is cooler, I've been doing some boots on the ground on my time off. I'm taking the approach of looking for 'markers', and also trying to capture 'auras' with a certain camera that I have. This is a guide (below) that I have referenced to what I am talking about and using. (Feel free to let me know your thoughts?).

Interesting. I would drive up Hewitt Canyon Rd and try it out on Byous Butte mountain. My be a stash there.
 

Maybe he has a placer claim for sale in that region and the publicity goes on.
IMHO, arund Byous Butte only old robbery cache could be find or past stolen gold ore from Silver King mine.

In reference to Byous Butte - being a possible robbery cache location; might be more near Comet Peak in IMHO. I can't remember too much of the details, but I recall a story of a Stage Coach being robbed of their payroll 'strongbox' at Hewitt Station and while running from the authorities, hid the cache somewhere in the Comet Peak surrounding area, which West of Hewitt Station. Could this be the same robbery you are pointing out? I believe the transportation of the payroll strongbox originated from the Hewitt Station, near the Silver King wash (now Hwy 60).

I don't know if was the same you have mentioned or another one, but if it wasn't find in the first place, all the possibilities are playing around. For sure in that region doesn't exist any Spanish-Mexican-Jesuit treasure, always from my research.
Peg Leg, Travis grandfather, had many documents/clues of buried caches of suspicious provenance, the most from robberies. All the stolen gold and silver from the Pinal-Queen Valley region, was headed and buried to the north via Hewitt and Whitlow canyons. I believe the most if not all the buried caches of that region, have been found, see then were few people who knew to " read " tracks wery well.
