I WILL BE BRIEF, TO BEGIN. I MISSED A RECOMENDATION TO BRING MY SEARCH TO THIS
THREAD. I'M GLAD THAT I WENT BACK TO REREAD MY OLDER POSTS.
THE PHOTOS ARE FROM THE SAME MINE SEARCH. YOU MAY HAVE SEEN THEM, AS I HAVE POSTED THEM IN 4 OR 5 OTHER THREADS.
I WILL START OUT WITH JUST A FEW AND ADD OTHERS AS NEEDED AND AS TIME PERMITS.

PLEASE EXCUSE THE USE OF ALL CAPS. I HAVE VISUAL PERSEPTIONS PROBLEMS AND THIS
HELPS ME TO READ WHAT I HAVE TYPED.

THANKS FOR ANY HELP. :read2:

I'm from NWA and think this is great someone finally bringing this up about mines. I too am Cherokee descent. My Native American history goes way back even to Coody's Bluff Oklahoma for which is was named after my ancestors.
 

CIVIL WAR 22,
THANKS FOR DROPPING IN. I NOTICED THAT YOU WERE FROM LOWELL AND NOW ARE FROM MOUNTAIN BURG.
YOU MOVED FROM THE TOWN BUILT NEAR THE "LOST PAYROLL IN A CRACK IN A BLUFF", DOWN TO THE ONLY AREA WHERE "WORKABLE" GOLD CAN BE FOUND IN ARKANSAS. [THE OACHITA MOUNTAIN RANGE IS OFF TO YOUR SOUTHEAST] ISN'T IT? I HAVEN'T GOTTEN OFF OF THE OLD 71 HWY. BUT I HAVE READ THAT THERE HAS BEEN GOLD FOUND THERE IN THE PAST.

I HAVE BEEN ON BOTH ENDS OF THE HILL THAT IS WRITTEN ABOUT THE LOST PAYROLL, BUT CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING LEFT TO IDENTIFY WHERE IT MAY HAVE BEEN HIDDEN.

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO LOCATE THAT CASH?

HAPPY HUNTING.

No not really. You mean the one off wagon wheel? Dad and I were supposed to look for it but never did. I want to look for the lost ammunition cache in lowell
 

THAT IS THE FIRST TIME THAT I HAVE HEARD OF AN AMMUNITION CACHE IN LOWELL.
IT JUST SHOWS THAT THERE ARE STILL THINGS TO LOOK FOR LOCALLY IF YOU LISTEN LONG ENOUGH...

CIVIL_WAR 22, I CANT FIGURE OUT HOW YOU WOULD DIG A TARGET IF YOU WERE SURE IT WAS AMMO.??? :icon_scratch:
I HAVE DUG IN OLD CIVIL WAR CAMPS BUT NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT HITTING ANY " LIVE AMMO". THAT MAKES ME THINK ABOUT HOW MANY SHOVELS I HAVE SHOVED INTO THE GROUND, NOT THINKING OF THE POSSIBILITIES.
I'M PRETTY SURE THAT I'LL HAVE THAT IN THE BACK OF MY MIND FROM NOW ON.

PM,
Yes, I was talking about the sign on the bluff which looks like an M on its side.
thanks for clearing this up for me.
okey dokey
 

THANKS OKEY DOKEY. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL FOLKS THAT HAVE FOUND OTHER SIGNS ON THAT PHOTO. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO GET BACK UP THERE TO PLACE MY HANDS ON THEM. I HAVE FAILED SEVERAL TIMES AS WELL.

THE EPSILON SIGN HAD MANY TRANSLATIONS AS WELL, WHILE I WAS MISTAKENLY TRYING TO TRANSLATE IT. THE ONE THAT SAID DIG STRAIGHT DOWN REALLY HAD ME GOING ... UNTIL I REALIZED THAT IT WAS A SIGMA. I GUESS IT COULD BE SAID " IT'S GREEK TO ME".
THE OTHER SIGNS ON THE BLUFF HAVE ME TROUBLED A LITTLE BIT. NOW THAT I HAVE THE EQUATION IN MY HEAD, I WANT TO GET BACK AND SOLVE THE TRIANGLE AND HOPEFULLY FIND SOMETHING OF VALUE TO END MY ILL FATED ATTEMPTS TO CONQUER THAT MOUNTAIN.
I'M NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER AND HAVE FEWER DAYS PER YEAR TO ATTEMPT THIS, AND EVERY TIME THAT I THINK THAT I HAVE FOUND SOMEONE THAT I BELIEVE WILL BE ABLE TO ASSIST ME, SOMETHING HAPPENS TO THEM.

I'M NOT SUPERSTITIOUS, BUT I CAN DO THE MATH ON LOST PARTNERS.
SO NOW I WAIT FOR DOCTORS TO CLEAR MY LATEST COM-RAD'S HEALTH PROBLEMS. HE IS STILL READY, WILLING AND ALMOST ABLE.

THANKS.

I would do it. Just need a heads up. I'm not skeered;)
 

C W, WERE YOU RESPONDING TO THE DIGGING UP LIVE AMMO, OR TEMPT FATE BY WALKING ON THE DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND.

ACTUALLY THAT IS ON THE NEXT MOUNTAIN TO THE NORTH, ACCORDING TO AN OLD MAN THAT LIVED IN THE VALLEY WHEN HE WAS A KID. HE TOLD JIM AND I THAT HE WALKED TO SCHOOL AND BACK WHEN HE WAS A KID AND HE WOULD TAKE A SHORT CUT THRU THE DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND AND MOST OTHERS WOULD WALK AROUND ON THE ROAD BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID OF THAT PATCH OF LAND WITH TWISTED TREES AND STRANGE ROCK FORMATIONS. I HAVE POSTED SOME OF THE PHOTOS OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS.

Live ammo
 

NOW THAT I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT... THE LIVE AMMO, DOESN'T HOLD NEAR IT'S WAIT IN DANGER COMPARED TO WHAT IS STILL LEFT UP ON THAT HILL.
 

HANG IN HERE WITH ME FOR A WHILE. THIS MAY BE A LONG POST.

YESTERDAY EVENING JESSIE CAME BY WITH HIS GUITAR IN HAND AND HE AND I TRIED TO MAKE A LITTLE MUSIC. AFTER MY HANDS STOPPED WORKING, WE PAUSED AND HE ASKED ME "WHEN ARE WE GOING BACK TO THE MOUNTAIN?". I TOLD HIM NOT UNTIL HE WAS HEALTHY. HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAD ONLY HAD ONE BLACKOUT SPELL IN ABOUT A WEEK AND HE WAS SCHEDULED TO PICK UP HIS HEART MONITOR THIS MORNING. IN HOPES THAT HIS MEDICATION WAS AT PROPER LEVELS.

NOT MUCH LONGER HE SAID HE WAS GOING HOME TO TAKE HIS MEDS AND HE WOULD SEE ME ABOUT NOON TODAY. HE WAS GOING TO PROBABLY GO TO BED.

LAST NIGHT, AROUND ELEVEN P.M. MY WIFE GOT A MESSAGE FROM JESSIE'S MOM. SHE SAID THAT JESSIE WAS IN AN AMBULANCE ON HIS WAY TO THE HOSPITAL. I FIGURED THAT HIS MEDS WERE OFF AGAIN. ABOUT AN HOUR SHE GOT A PHOTO TEXT FROM HIS MOM.

DEBBIE WENT FROM CRYING TO SCREAMING IN DISBELIEF I DIDN'T HAVE MY GLASSES ON AND ALL I COULD SEE WERE THE WORDS "SO GUY DID THIS TO MY SON! I GRABBED MY GLASSES AND I DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE FACE IN THE PHOTO.

I FINALLY MADE OUT HIS HAIR CUT. NOTHING ELSE LOOKED LIKE JESSIE. WE WERE WAITING, THINKING THAT WE WOULD GET A MEDICAL REPORT. NOTHING PREPARED US FOR WHAT WE SAW.

JESSIE HAD WALKED INTO AN AMBUSH FROM A MARINE THAT OUT WEIGHED HIM BY 150 POUNDS. HIS HEAD WAS CAVED IN, IN TWO PLACES, HIS CHEEK BONE BROKEN, HIS NOSE BROKEN. SEVERAL OTHER CRACKED AND BRUISED BONES WHERE HE WAS STOMPED AND KICKED ALL OVER, WHILE TWO OTHERS STOOD AND LAUGHED. HE HAD BEEN INVITED TO COME IN AND PLAY MUSIC AND WAS SUCKER PUNCHED BEFORE HE KNEW ANYTHING.

SECURITY VIDEO REVEALED THAT THE ATTACKER AND TWO OTHERS LIED TO THE POLICE, BLAMING HIM FOR STARTING IT.

I TALKED TO HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE THIS MORNING AS HE CAME HOME WITH HIS HEART MONITOR. HE WENT IN TO GO TO BED.
HIS MOM CAME BY AND FILLED US IN. SHE IS AT HER WIT'S END. SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED TO HIM IN THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS.

SHE HAD TO WORK TOMORROW, SHE HAS SPENT ALL OF HER MONEY TRYING TO KEEP HIM ALIVE AND WELL. JESSIE WILL STAY WITH ME TOMORROW, AND I MUST TELL HIM THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE TRIPS UP THE MOUNTAIN.

[HIS MOM MADE A REMARK THIS MORNING ABOUT SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED LATELY AND HE HAS HAD NO TROUBLE IN HIS LIFE.] SHE SAID EVER OCTOBER 26th, HE HAS HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.

I HAD A SICK FEELING COME OVER ME WHEN SHE SAID THAT. I CAME INSIDE AND GOT ON MY LAPTOP AND ON THIS SITE. I SCANNED DOWN THE PAGES WATCHING FOR THE DATE.... I SAW IT AND JUST BELOW IT WAS THE PHOTO OF JESSIE POINTING OUT THE POINTER STONE THAT WE HAD FOUND TOGETHER.

HIS LIFE HAS CHANGED FOR THE WORST, EVER SINCE HE SET FOOT ON THAT SITE. THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES ON THAT SITE. THERE NEVER HAS BEEN ONE.

IF THAT IS NOT ENOUGH INPUT, I WILL ADD THIS. HIS MOM WORKS AT THE SAME RESTAURANT THAT MY FIRST PARTNER WENT TO FOR COFFEE EVERY TIME WE WENT TO THAT MOUNTAIN. POURING COFFEE FOR FOLKS THAT SIT IN THE SAME SEATS THAT JIM AND I SAT.

I AM DONE WITH THE SITE. THIS IS WHAT WILL FINISH THE BOOK. THE COST HAS BEEN TOO HIGH. I SHOULD HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE NOW. MY BLIND AMBITION TO CONQUER THAT MOUNTAIN HAS ONLY COST MORE THAN I CAN EVER REPAY.

I WILL BE CONTACTING SEVERAL OF YOU THAT HAVE HELPED ME, TO SEE IF YOU STILL WANT TO BE MENTIONED AT THE END OF THE STORY.

I DO NOT KNOW WHETHER I WILL PURSUE PUBLISHING IT. I NEED TO SPEND SOME TIME THINKING.

I AM NOT LEAVING TREASURE NET, BUT I WILL TERMINATE THIS STRING AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE. I WILL PROBABLY STILL GO PANNING FOR GOLD AND METAL DETECTING, BUT NOT ON THAT SITE.

I WILL BE ABSENT FROM HERE FOR A WHILE OTHER THAN CLEANING UP DETAILS.

THANK YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS EACH OF YOU.

Crazy I didn't hear anything about it in the news or my family.
 

HEY,C W.
MOST THINGS OF THIS SORT DO NOT GET RELEASED TO THE PRESS FROM OUR LOCAL LEOs. THE GUY THAT DID IT HAD OTHERS THAT BACKED UP HIS STORY, BUT THIS MORNING THE PROPERTY MANAGER PULLED THE SECURITY VIDEO, AND IT CONTRADICTS THE REPORT THAT THEY GAVE, PLUS SHOWED THE HEARTLESS REPEATED ATTACKS ON HIS UNCONSCIOUS BODY, STOMPING AND KICKING HIM IN TWO OTHER AREAS BETWEEN THE FIRST ATTACK AND HIS MOM'S HOUSE, AS HE TRIED TO GET TO SAFETY.

THE MARINE WAS CHARGED AND CITED AS A MISDEMEANOR ASSAULT. MONDAY MORNING THE VIDEO WILL BE TAKEN TO THE D.A. TO CORRECT THE RECORD.

I GOT UP EARLY THIS MORNING TO GET HIM AND WATCH HIM SO HIS MOM COULD WORK. IT WAS A DIFFICULT NIGHT LAST NIGHT AND ALL THE MORE TODAY, AS I TOLD HIM THAT WE WOULD NOT RETURN TO THE MOUNTAIN. I TOLD HIM THAT WE WILL STILL PROSPECT AND METAL DETECT, AND MAYBE EXPLORE SOME OF THE LOCAL LEGENDS.

HE'S A GREAT YOUNG MAN, WHO HAS HAD A GOOD LIFE UP UNTIL WE WENT UP THERE TOGETHER. TO LOOK AT HIS SWOLLEN AND BRUISED FACE AND HELP HIM REATTACH HIS HEART MONITOR, ONLY DEEPENED MY SORROW.

HE TOLD ME THIS MORNING THAT HE HAS ALREADY FORGIVEN HIM. HE WILL NOT FORGET THE LESSON THAT HE LEARNED AND WILL NOT TURN HIS BACK TO HIM.

I SIMPLY CANNOT TAKE HIM OR ANYONE ELSE TO THAT SITE. I CANNOT MAKE IT FOR MYSELF. I CANNOT PUT MY WIFE THRU ANY MORE WONDERING IF I WILL RETURN, EVERY TIME I GO OUT.

TOMORROW I WILL DO THE SAME THING FOR MY YOUNG FRIEND. I WILL DO IT FOR AS LONG AS I CAN HOLD UP. I OWE HIM THAT AND MUCH MORE.

MIKEL.
 

What town did this brutal beating happen in?
 

No I meant from my law enforcement buddies around here no one mentioned it when asked. I was just wondering usually they tell me of some messed up situation like that. I want to go to the mountain now. I guess since you don't want to go up there I'll do it for you
 

I MAY BE LETTING TOO MUCH OUT HERE.
BUT, JESSIE'S MOMMA [BEAR] HAS HER CLAWS SHARP AND HER DUCKS IN A ROW.
TOMORROW MORNING, THE DEFICATION WILL HIT THE ROTOR OSCILATOR.
SHE IS FEARLESS WHEN IT COMES TO DEFENDING HER CUBS.
