Finding the Gold
Legend has it that the Superstition Mountains are home to a rich vein of gold, its location known only to a few, all of whom took its secrets to their graves. Although many have entered the Superstitions in their quest for this gold, for more than 130 years no one has succeeded in finding it, and not all of the explorers have made it out alive. Many of them seem to have met with mysterious, violent ends.
For the less adventurous, perhaps the safest way to find the gold of the Superstitions is to show up at sunset, in Lost Dutchman State Park (Apache Junction, AZ), on an evening like this one.
