Why would you stake a claim on highgraded ore?
if Wagoner would had stolen or possessed ore from a close by mining company, then he would have to sell his ore far away from that region, maybe in another state, in regards to be not catched red handed. He would be in big trouble if someone would recognize the origin of the ore and he would not had an answer to that. Only the black market if would been possible, but big quantities is another risk which could led him to the heaven gates.
Is easy to say he had highgraded ore but hard to say where he sold his ore in regards to survive.

Not sure that's entirely correct....
 

To everyone here on TN - may you all have a wonderful Happy Thanksgiving. May your turkey be delicious, the gravy run hot all while we all dream of the 'shiny'.

Yes, I do know the story says it's quite purposefully quite buried now, but it is a nice refresher. I didn't remember that when I was out there and consequentially, didn't look. I wonder if thats true, or a nice little CIRCLE to keep people HERE for a loooong time. Either way, Im here and will follow all leads the best I can.... :) Another hike (besides the ones currently on the fire) is in the planning stages. Winter is short here. I need to do as much as I can, now.
Nice little circle?? No, no spinning by me.

I enjoyed the video you made, not enjoying where the talk seems to be going. Good luck to you and your efforts. 👍

Oh no I think you misunderstood or probably, I misspoke. I didn't mean to imply YOU put that circle and I apologize if thats what it sounded like.
I was trying to say whoever Originally wrote that, or said that, or "relayed the message" over a hundred years ago, maybe THEY planted a little "circle." I thought I was just making some small-time banter about the little details people place in these legends (not YOU, but the original storyteller).
Maybe too little too late, or damage done, but I honestly didnt mean to offend you, and apologize if I did. It was definately not my intent, nor was it to criticize any details you bring to the discussion, not in the slightest. Your input is valued, greatly.
Again, Im sorry for not being clearer and Im sorry if you found it offensive or took it in a way I wish you didn't.

I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving.
