Top 3 Lost Treasure Mysteries Still Not Solved.

Three lost treasure mysteries in Washington still have not been solved. A reclusive Scottish man in Old Blewett plays poker with gold coins only to be done in by a blizzard. Two armed men steal gold ore from prospectors during the Idaho gold rush only to be hanged moments later. But, where is the gold? A Spanish man shows up in a small town purchasing items with gold nuggets only to mysteriously disappear into the mountains. Years later, his skeletal remains are the only indication of the location of the lost treasure.

    Thanks so much for this video! You always hear about gold mines & gold found in British Columbia & California but you don’t hear about Washington, Oregon, and Idaho which has always puzzled me, from a geological standpoint, the terrain should be just as conducive to holding gold.
