Legend of the Superstition Mountains

The six episodes did keep my interest, but many questions arose, mainly about the ladder in the last episode. It looked way too new, like it was very recently placed there. And the metal section found lying on the ground was not rusted.

I was born & Raised outside of Apache Jct where the Superstition Mountains are. Never have I ever heard of people being beheaded. It must not be too dangerous considering the fact that thousands of school kids hike the "Supes" as they are know as to locals. Whats with the idiot out of state former cop always shooting snakes. Listen moron, People who live in the desert do not kill snakes unless as a last resort. The Apache Helicopters - The Boeing Plant that manufactures the Apache is 10 miles away. It's a test flight path around the Supes. They always fly there, so called restrictive air space all lies.

I can't believe that the producers of this show actually thing people are so gullible to believe this garbage TV.

Cigar chomping, gun slapping with more testosterone than brains. Like the pro- wrestling of treasure hunting but not as believable.

Anybody watching the show would think these guys searched "far and wide" for this treasure, in truth EVERY second of filming is within a 20 minute drive. As somebody who vacations in the area, and knows it well, all the locations searched by these hunters are on a 20 minute ride down either route 60 toward Picket Post mountain, or straight down Route 88 - 'the Old West highway', from Apache Junction, through Goldfield, and ending up at Canyon Lake in Tortilla Flat. And the 'characters' they interview all have ulterior motives - no mention that Clay Worst owns the Old Wasp mine in Goldfield that gets a few ounces of gold a week and that his mine is for sale, or Bob Snoose who owns the Goldfield Ghost town attraction, also still works the Black Queen mine in Goldfield as well. Best part was when they went to the Bluebird mine and gift shop, nobody interviewed Louis or John who run the place, as they both would have laughed these guys off the property as more idiots looking for what was found 125 years ago, which was the Bulldog mine.

This show comes across as contrived and fake. The scenery is beautiful, hence the 5-star rating. The script and the acting are both clumsy, perhaps an attempt to add realism to this pretender. You'll find the Lost Dutchman before you find a nugget here.
