Sitting quietly in the morning sipping coffee listening to the stories on this channel is better than most westerns
Thanks
@@jacksanfelice8840 !!!salute*
Thanks keep on doint it some great stories coming up!
Thanks
I noticed recently that I spend as much time sitting quietly sipping coffee listening to these stories instead of viewing content.
Very creepy story and very well told. Hearing the sound of a baby crying in the middle of the night and seeing that man watching you from up on the mountain...now that is scary. I'm an Englishman and I love hearing stories about America. It's such a beautiful country and has some really eerie places, stories and histories. I hope to visit one day.
Here I am. I'm an American that loves English stories. I heard alligators go crazy at the sounds of babies screaming. GOD BLESS YOU FROM America
The narrator is great at telling his story and looks good for his 81 years.
Right? That surprised the hell out of me. Stay active I guess
I lived in the superstition mountains for three and a half years, even worked at the silver king mine, still have some silver ore and other stones, I love this show...
This is a good man if I've ever seen one
I am so dearly fond of this video and Jack San Felice. Thank you for your service as a sworn officer. I would love to hear more nocturnal stories and camping stories from you Mr. Felice. You and what you have accomplished with your life are an absolute inspiration to me.
One of the best stories I’ve heard on here. To me it’s just a very simple testament to how easily something could stay hidden out in those areas for hundreds of years. Countless nameless men have came and tested those mountains and were sent home with a reality check. It’s so much harder than you think it is when your researching and day dreaming and using your brain only. I truly believe the physicality needed to find some of this stuff is the main reason places are still lost. That combined with simple terrain changes over time. Great great story. Thanks Jack.
Thank you for your comments
After binging this channel all day today,I'm reasonably convinced that the old Gregory Peck movie "McKenna's Gold"is very much based on the Dutchman's lost mine.Great movie and this is my favorite youtube channel,
Superstition Mts. Mystery stories. Can't get enough of them!
Take the following story for what it's worth. I worked the gold shows for A&B prospecting supplies in the 80's and hung out there quite a bit, one day these two gentleman came in to the store and told us of a story about there adventure into hidden canyon, it went something like this. They were lost Dutchman hunters and were metal detecting in hidden canyon, they got a screaming signal over a large area and they proceeded to dig it up and what they told me next was almost unbelievable. They uncovered a conquistador chest plate, helmet and Skelton remains of a person, they went on to say that they were spooked, covered it up and hightailed it out of there. I don't know if I believed them but it's just another mystery of the superstition mountains. Extra footnote, my mom worked at everybody's drug store in the 60's. Thanks for sharing.
For Real or just tall tales?
@@jacksanfelice8840
Yes this really did happen, there was a few of us listening. Frank, Tom and a couple of other people, I personally don't know what to think. I know the conquistadors were in eastern Arizona and they sent out Scout's in every direction looking for the seven cities of gold.
I discovered something in the 80's about a lost mine, maybe after the pandemic we could get together and see what you half to say about my discovery.
Thanks for sharing your stories I could sit and listen all day. I have a few of my own, one is my dad was a Dutch hunter.
Your welcome that ,must have nbeen a good place to work amnd hear stories fromn that old timers!
Spanish wore red and would.of been isreal enemies just like great Britain
I wouldn't doubt it. The Spanish went to a lot of places. My daddy told me years ago about an old man in Lowndes county, Georgia who had a flower nursery on his property. The old man was making a living but one day he was rich. No reason anybody could see. My daddy was a bit of a historian and he paid attention to stuff. He thought the old man found Spanish gold. I think he knew about the Spanish mission near the Okefenokee swamp but he died before it was discovered the Spanish has a mission on Ocean Pond in Lake Park, Georgia. He would have loved to hear your story.
Jack San Felice your stories are so good. Thank you so much for telling them, it is one of the only things that takes my mind off this global viral pandemic / economic crash for working class folks.
I live in A.J. and this was FANTASTIC. so many mysteries. Thxs
Thanks, Larry and Jack San Felice For Keeping History Alive - Stay Safe, Stay Strong, God Bless...

Thanks a bunch keep tuning in some rerally great ones to come from all of us!!
Thanks we appreciate it
Keep tuned in for more adventures and tales of yesteryear.
I don't recognize my country anymore. Totally different even than it was in 2008 or even 2010. What are we allowing to happen to us?
As someone that grew up 15 to 20 minutes down ironwood rd from superstition mountain ive heard a lot of stories of crazy shit happenjng out there when people are alone.
I'd love to hear some of them? Care to share, event just a bit of a teaser? Man o man, what an interesting place.
Hey still unsolved murders out there and some bodies to uncover yet!
I used to be stationed at Williams AFB from 1979 to 1981 and hiked all over the place there. LOTS of people go missing there. If you hike, be sure to carry at least a 410 shotgun for snakes and a 45 sidearm for boars, puma etc....
I would love to hear some stories!
I’m from Sweden, and I love this place. Thanks for letting me hear all the great things. Must see USA before I die.
Stories are amazing can't stop listening , take care , from Glasgow , Scotland 👌🏴
My favorite story I’ve heard so far
Thanks a lot!
tHANK yOU

It's such a joy to hear these stories of the past, stories by people who past them down to the young who will tell them over and over for all time. These are what makes legends.
Thanks

Nice!
I 'm looking forward to those!
😃I'll B here 4 the next story😅N U can bet on that🤗LvYa😎
Jack San Felice Hold you TO that, mate!
Jack San Felice I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen when you told this tale Jack. Things like this don’t happen much anymore. Satellites, mobile phones etc etc. Looking forward to anything else you tell. What a find. Thank you. Sooz in Australia
I lived in Apache junction in Arizona 4 27 years at the foot of superstition mints. Beautiful and mystical!!
I used to live by Bulldog canyon but moved into Mesa out of necessity Great views i had of all the mounbtains from my rooftop
Even hiking the designated trails is hard there.
Correctamundo as the Fonz used to say!
This is one of the coolest stories ever. I still wanted to know more about the heart stone, like did you go back and dig into the collapsed mine? Oh classic cowboy stuff for sure.
Fantastic story, thanks much Jack. It was awsome.
Ron
Thanks for tuning in
Wow! What a great story-adventure! I was glued to my seat and loved every minute! Thank you...
Loved listening to the story. My dad used to say that the old timers would say you go into the Sperstition Mountains you might not make it out again. Very mysterious place.
Always a pleasure.
Thanks
thanks
Loved this story...gritty.
Thanks
Awesome story. Thank you so much! Great channel.
Thanks keep tuned in
Thanks
What a fantastic recount of an excellent adventure! Wow! Thank you for sharing!
Fascinating story....I wish I were brave enough but, I'm too old to go in now.
I did it for you -I cant either now but I have all these memories to pass on to you and others who tune in Thanks
@@jacksanfelice8840 You’re a one of kind man, Jack. I’m only 17 and I wish to have at least some of your wisdom when I’m older. Thank you for sharing this incredible story, and thank you for your service! Best wishes in 2021 from Maryland. Born in Sierra Vista, AZ. Would love to get back out there someday.
Really such a great Storyteller.
So enjoyable.
Love these mountains.
best story yet. Makes me want to go there , but then I remembered that I'm 63 and I don't have any young friends to help me do it. so I'll just wait for your next story.
Yeppers that climb in can only be worse now and I was 65 when last did it-tough and I was in grreat shape-
@@jacksanfelice8840 At our age, we have to make young friends. It takes too long to make old ones.
Marry a younger woman. She can help pack you in. And if you're really nice to her, she might pack you back out.
What are the sound effect noises @ 9:43 & 10:12?
@@KatrinaDancer Bob cat kittens?
What a great story teller, I could listen to him forever! Thank you so much.
Thank you John look for more stories about 26 under my bame in Mysterious of the Superstition Mountains
All your stories are good but this one might be the best yet.
Some other good one coming up -keep tuned in-
Thanks
I guess you may be close to right
You may be right!! But keep viewing another good one may pop up!
that was an amazing story there, *jack* … thanks for sharing … you're a real trooper.
When I ed on the Thumbnail, I thought it said _The Mystery of Hidden Coupons_ .
I love Mysteries of the Superstition Mountains and especially the stories from those who live there. I'm hoping I can find and read those ghost stories! Thank you Mr. Felice for sharing your adventures with us!
I am so glad you guys kept this channel alive. I love history, and never tire of hearing your stories. I am curious about one point you didn't mention. If this place is so difficult to get into, and has no trail, how the heck did the missing man get that mule down in there?
Thanks-30-50 years ago the way around Tortilla MT. was open but flooding and lack of travelers have closed the trails of which they were very difficult then
Thanks
@@jacksanfelice8840 Thanks, makes perfect sense now.
50 years ago there was a horse traikl from the east but floods and landsloides closed it!
@@jacksanfelice8840 I know where the Peralta stones map starts. I'm not kidding. I NEED YOUR HELP
loved this - truth stranger than fiction! A man's body could be dispersed all over the country side in that time! Sounds like he had a 'bigfoot' on the hillside watching him all night too! baby crying noises are often reported at time of sightings ..
We got audio of a baby crying in the forest at night
Yep, I have also heard about the baby crying sound when a Bigfoot is near.
@@Suntan38 NEVER believe your ears in the forest! hear anything untoward - EXIT!!!
A very interesting but spooky story!!! Thanks!!!
Thank you
Your stories are amazing and keep me glued to the story. Thank You for your stories. Keep safe and God bless.
Awesome story and mystery, love all the great stories!
thanks
Thanks
Loved this story/mystery....held interest from the first word on. Thank you!!!
Great story ! Thank you.
You guys are great story tellers and have had many wonderful adventures. I love to listen and enjoy the scenery very much.
great story mr. jack ! been thtu some bushwhacking spots myself, don't care for em these days,to hard on these ole bones! ...happy trails always...
AMEN-these ole bones hurt for a week after a hike nowadays!
Thanks
Love the manual directions in the beginning, hang a right towards fish creek then later on your left...
This was a great story, good job on the video.
Hey Jack San Felice, thank you for this great told story. You're an absolute Original! Looking forward to hear more such interesting happenings.
Love these stories about the superstition mountains very entertaining.
O!M!G! Wow wow wow this is up their in the top 5 stories that I’ve herd from you good men . I hope they never end !I really feel like I’m right there in those hot dusty rocks with you again.
Thanks I will try to keep great stories coming watch for the next one soon
thanks keep viewing some more are coming up soon!
I wonder if the horse died, like overnight while the prospector was sleeping... and then he just wandered off naked into the desert, dehydrated and crazy... wow what a mystery! I live within sight of the Superstitions, and it's a fascinating place. Thanks for sharing your story!
I’m thinking it was the other way around: some guy (maybe the doctor) tied the poor mule, went off, got himself killed, and left the poor animal helplessly stuck and waiting to die.
Poor thing. It’s one thing to choose to go in, make your mistakes, and get yourself killed. Quite another to be led in, tied up, and left to die and when you weren’t the one looking for whatever it is people are looking for there.
Just wanted to say I absolutely love this channel. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤
Thanks for sharing another great story Jack..
Stay blessed my friend..
Thanks
Captivating.... Could have listened for hours . Thank you so much .
This is mad. Thrilled. Couldn’t stop listening. Coming back later for a second listen. The story is enough- but he tells it well, too. Details. So many details that I could picture the landscape and the scene
Great story!
I’m familiar with the Superstition Mts. I lived in the desert near them in the early 90s when Fed and Elaine Shrader owned the mining supply store in Apache Junction. They started the Superstition Mt Treasure Hunter’s Club.
Holy crap, 1st? Man I am glad you guys are still making videos. I find pretty much everything about the Superstitions and the history of that area fascinating. 👍
There are some great tales out there and Hank and Larry and Ron and Marshall and Clay are all fantastic story tellers!!
More to follow keep tuned in
Thanks
Maybe the Doc went into the cave to check it out and it colapsed so he couldn't get out and that's why the mile was left alone like that or he went off and fell somewhere else and couldn't get back because of his injuries.
That is my guess too
@@jacksanfelice8840 That's exactly what I was thinking. What if "Don" had been by himself when he fell? I see these video's by these young guys, hiking off into the desert alone. Well there are a couple of 'em that have went missing.
@@davenettlesmusic2954 oh, reading stories about people going missing while hiking? this comes up a LOT, most of the time it's someone alone, or separated from the group. "I've fallen and I can't get up!" is a death sentence if you're alone.
I'll bet there's a human skeleton buried in that collapsed cave. A cadaver dog might be able to sniff it out.
Yup. He should disclose the location so somebody can bring him home
Maybe
Wow loved that story!!! Amazing how much you know about the Superstition mountain
Spent amost 30 years in these mountains with some real hiking and horseback experts of the ttrails and started research in the 1980s on Superstitions have writted several books-three yet in print and lectured in CColes for 22years and all over Phoenix area and centtral Arizona for many moons-best way to learn a subject is to teach it- teaching it makes you diligently reasearch the subject and I don't want my peers to shoot me down !! But thanks for compliment!!
Thanks
30 years and 2000 trips in and thank God out sometimes limping
If you ever feel the need to go back, let me know. I’d be happy to join.
OH no too many knee ops!!
Im just sayin, you never know lol.
Jack San Felice I was wondering if you might have a grid location for that dinosaur skull shaped rock? Love the story
Only in my dreams
Me 2!
I love this story! Feel so bad for an animal ending their life tied to a tree, no food water or anyone to help you. So they found the Doctors clothes but no skeleton correct? What The heck happened to him? Love Jack San Felice, what a story teller he is!
Interesting story
I love these so much thank you.
Ole Don sounds like the worst hiking buddy ever
You could say that !!
Lol
Wow!!!!...just...wow!
Can't wait till I'm back in the supes . I will travel there in October. The 8oo mile drive is worth it to be up in those mysterious places you tell such great stories about. Although I don't think I have what it takes to do hidden canyon. But definitely will look at the gun sight from the apache trail. Thanks Jack, what a great story. I'll tell it to my nephew white we hike a bit easier trail in the supes.
One cannot be too careful trekking into any rugged back country. The superstitious mountains seems to generate bad luck that gets published in the newspaper. All the other places not much. So think twice about things.
@@richardbowers3647 been there hiking many times. I was born in florence az . I'm familiar with the trails I'll be hiking. Also Richard they are the superstition mountains. Not superstitious. Don't worry about me. Thanks anyway. Have a great fall. Get out there and enjoy the changing of the seasons. Life is short don't let all the negativity happening right now get you down.
If you do not have them get SuperstitionWilderness Trails West & East hiking books by Jack Carlson and Elizabeth Stewart-best hiking books with history also-Jack Carlson was my hiking partner for about 15 years and he knows the mountains better than anyone I know!!
@@jacksanfelice8840 thanks for the info. I toured the superstition mountains museum last year. Really enjoyed it. Are the books you recommended sold there. Anyway thanks for responding to my comment. I kinda feel honored.
Thanks
Iv watched dozens of these story’s but this one takes the cake. Iv watched this one at least 3x.
Great story.I had an Uncle that spent years around the Mountain ,lookin...& lookin ... i went with on one occasion - hard terrain !
Tough ttraveling not for the faint at heart
Very entertaining and detailed. Had me hooked. I'm still intrigued by the mystery of the young doctor. Your research found details that apparently match up with the doctor's story so I would imagine you got names with the info, have you ever reached out to any possible relatives or local law enforcement to determine if this doctor ever resurfaced? If he did maybe there's a chance he is still alive and that would make for an even better follow-up story.
Checked obits and cound not locate his name- another mystery of the Superstitions!
Love listening to these stories, thanks!
Thanks
Thanks marie
Awesome
Thanks
Fascinating story - loved it, particularly as the subtitles which I rely on are clear and pretty accurate. Like somebody lower down the comments, my guess is that the doc went inside that now collapsed mine - and is still in there, after it came down on him.
Awesome story hop they found him.
Me too
YEAAAAHHHH a nice long tale. 🤘🏽🤘🏽 this is what I subscribe for.
Can you guys do one on the Jesuits in the mountains sometime?
WE have some coming up and I have a tale about that but can't give away the mystery stay tuned
Jack San Felice cool, thanks Jack!! You’re the man.
Yes Jesuits are in the future
This is awesome, thanks.
Had to pause to search the area on Google Earth, damn I wish they'd drastically improve the resolution.
Great story! It's as if I was there.
Thanks
From newzeland love these stories we have similar story's here from early settlers encountering strange things even the native maori storys
I wrote my book based on sequential dreams every night dreaming a chapter and then in the morning, I would put it together on my PC. The wolves in my story haunted me for ten years until I wrote this book. I wrote my book to be a movie. All the effects can be visualized in my writings. All I require is a renowned movie producer and staff to put it together for an Emmy-award-winning best movie video of the year.
Im about to dive head first into all these videos
I love a good story teller
That was really interesting. He is a good story teller.
I would pay money to hangout with Jack San Felice for an afternoon and just swap stories and ask a thousand questions. Such an amazing life he’s led. The pit mine he found that was covered in camouflage netting really has me wondering if he didn’t discover the Dutchman’s mine. If so it was obviously being worked secretly by the AK toting men he stumbled upon. And it’s a good thing he hid from em because if that really was the Dutchman’s mine Old Jack probably would’ve ended up dead and buried in the bottom of the mine. That high grade ore he found at the mine was very intriguing. It was obviously paying off financially because they wouldn’t be putting in all that time and effort of lugging ladders and a freaking generator all the way up that canyon. Nor would they camouflage a simple prospect hole the way they did. If someone fell in that mine and died they’d be held liable- it had to have been worth all the risks they were taking. I have a feeling they took out a small fortune in high grade specimen
What an unusual story of two men on a belief trek!
Love this channel.
The Superstitions are Awesome.
Thanks
This was dope
Glad I found this!
Captivating and worthwhile storytelling👌
Just appreciated the simplest way this video was executed, with every now & then pictures of the actual locations, which I thought was a excellent touch 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼😉✌🏼
Thanks for sharing this ❤️
Thanks!!
Love the idea of finding the omega,watched this several times,the Heart rock is incredible to see,heard many stories of this area, noticed the heart rock was very dark.
He’s a great storyteller and a reminder why I’m not that adventurous
excellent story interesting guys ol Don n Jack
Great story, I am sooo intrigued, thanks.
One man's gun sight, another man's titons.
As you wish !!!
all I can say is thank,I love that story
Most Superstition stories seem to be mostly speculative. This story has some teeth. There’s still more that we don’t know than we know but the parts we know are right in front. Great stuff.
Great mystery and told beautifully! Thanks!
Thanks Joyce keep watching more out there Jack.
