My guess is it will be alot of fact finding and opinions with no real finds. I know that sounds pesamistic but these treasure hunting shows are all the same in my opinion.
 

Preview: Middle-aged white guys with more money and time than brains, argue and fight over decades old theories and legends with drama supplied by shots of rattlesnakes, sliding rocks, and burning hot shots of the sun. The producers throw in some ancient history and news footage of the recovery of dead bodies, and the usual suspects in Apache Junction and Tortilla Flats keep raking in that money. BORING!

LOL!
 

the thing that amuses me about all of these shows is the camera work.no matter what the scenario,the camera crew is always first on the scene. a shot will show 2 guys struggling to get up a rocky steep slope,filmed by the cameraman who is already up there. or a shot of someone trying to crawl into a long lost cave,filmed by the cameraman who is already inside the cave....all entertainment !....just like Heraldo Rivera and the opening of Capone's vault....one hour of speculation and then.....empty !

That's what it will be, but that's all you could expect anyway. It's not likely, out of all the people that have ever gone looking for it, this group happened to have had a History Channel film crew with them when they found it. We all know most people who find caches (yes, this is different, but the idea is the same) aren't real likely to broadcast it and have to deal with all the red tape and BS. It's the same thing with Oak Island. I know they're not going to find it (at least on the show, if at all) but it's still neat to just see the history and the process they are going through. I know some of that seems to be staged, but it's still some of the more realistic reality TV that's on right now.
 

With Wayne Tuttle (runs the Dutchunter rendezvous) and myself on the cast I think you will find it interesting. You will see things you have not seen before. Plus some gold here and there.

Your wrong!
 

You see guys each year everyone sits around the campfire at the Rendezvous and talks about Dutchman gold. I don't sit around. You want to see where that came from watch. Up to you. I had a blast with the project. Oh! Go for a Wayne hike some time when you hit 65. I want to watch.
 

I have to say that you don't get more real Dutch Hunter than Wayne. You also don't get much better Superstition Prospector than Frank. I don't know who else they went with for the show, but I give it the benefit of the doubt for those two alone!

Thanks Mike. You a good friend. I'm waiting to see how it turns out also. I know I picked up some gold locations along the way along with a few nuggets. You will see me always looking at the ground. We hit some interesting spots and had a ton of fun. I must admit I don't care for rattle snakes after the greenie tried to eat me last year.
