Wagoner's Lost Ledge

Millsite then?

I wrote " for the real Wagoner's gold ledge ", which means it's not at Millsite.

I have to claim ignorance here. Where did Brunderlin find his gold...general area obviously?

I don't know. An assay would give a clue.
I doubt Brunderlin knew to "read" a Spanish treasure map.

Excellent post! I just looked at my quadrangle...... no Whiskey Springs. Very very good points. Now you have me interested in Herman's cave. I must have been within walking distance of it, but I still haven't worked out exactly where it is yet. I just know it' in the area. I wonder where Howland found that quarts and I'm wondering even more where those shafts are..... Looks like another trip is in order. Thank you sir!

There's nothing of any value to see at Hermans Cave...except for the view

This is how the moonshiner's layout was explained to me:

There was some old trash laying around at the camp. Nothing in the cave, I don't think Herman or anyone else actually lived in there unless there was a bad storm, but even then I wouldn't want to be in there.

Supposedly there was always someone on watch on the bluff overlooking La Barge. They could see anyone coming in either direction up/down Labarge, and anyone coming over the divide and down into Whiskey Springs Canyon.

Oh that's helpful. I saw about 6 mines out there. Which one was it?

None.

I'm pretty sure I pointed that cave out in the video. I just didn't realize at the time what I was looking at.

17:28 - 17:35 in the video. Wanna chat about those 4 pyramid shaped rocks and the heart looking one, perched up on it's pedestal.......and the triangle on to the right on the ground? Possible meanings? Completely natural? I'm trying to find them on GE currently, w/o much success yet.....
Also, those water bladders are placed in a rock that totally looks like a snakes mouth, opened.
