If a family owns the land, I do hope the judge not only sides with them, but compensates them for their legal fees and troubles!

We have a ranch in California that is surrounded by National Forest. We once had a prospector tell us that if a prospector filed a claim for our land, it could be awarded, and we could be shot for setting foot on our own place. totally false, but I think sometimes the lure of unearned wealth causes people to trample the rights of others!

"I've been seeking the Lost Dutchman's gold mine, the Franklin Mountains treasure, Jesse James' buried treasure, Belle Starr's iron door, the Lost Peg Leg gold and numerous others," testified Smith. He said his three years of treasure hunting have not yielded any treasure. "Most of these are in very secluded places and very dangerous," he said.

Hmmm..this Smith sounds a lot like Joseph Smith, a 19th-Century treasure hunter in New York who was rather unsuccessful and charged with fraud before finding some golden plates and creating a new religion. Maybe if he can't find the Lost Dutchman, he can start a new religion and find some golden iPods or something...?

	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks BGHater. At first glance, I thought it might be reference to a lost treasure story (I think set in Texas) I read about as a kid, in the (fun, if nothing else) book "Strangely Enough". :') To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

This is a good tale at Desert USA.com. It gives a little taste of gold fever:

I think the Mission river is navigable—with a canoe.
