Many have searched for the treasure, which is said to be filled with gold beyond imagination, but some never returned. Even today, hikers claim to experience unexplained phenomena in the area, with some believing the spirits of past seekers still guard the treasure.

Been hiking and backpacking the Superstitions since the early 80s. Explored most of its canyons, peaks, caves and abandoned mines. Even its Indian ruins. I’ve met dozens of people actively searching for the gold, including former Governor and Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt. Only place I’ve ever been creeped out was the site of an Apache massacre. I’d like to believe the gold is still out there.
