- Back In Time looks into the legends of lost treasure thought to be buried in the southwest corner of Oklahoma. Some of it, the stories go, is from Spanish explorers. Other treasure was supposedly stashed by robbers in the 1800's.And there's the dedicated few who want to strike it rich by panning for gold in Oklahoma, and some are finding some nuggets.

My late Mother in law before she passed told me a few stories about outlaws that had stopped in and had dinner with her family in Blackgum, Oklahoma and how they camped out a lot of times in the woods in this area between Vian,Gore. She said that as a child she remembers a time Frank and Jesse James sat down and shared dinner with her family. She also said someone in her family had run with another couple of outlaws for a time, but he apparently quit taking part in robberies and such. Can't remember what she said his name was though. She apparently knew quite a few notorious outlaws as a child living in Blackgum.
A friend of mine found a cave here in Oklahoma with carvings from Jesse James and I think the Doolins, just outside of his property line, on technically government property. He reported it to the local museum, the museum brought in the authorities. My friend gave them all rides to the sight on his Gator side by side. About two months after the event my friend checked on the carvings and found them gone. He said that they were removed by professionals. The odd thing is that the only access to the site is through his property or the neighbors and the neighbors didn't give access
Wow that's kind of messed up you should have gotten a payday from the musuem for that discovery since they will use it for the rest of eternity to make money from it
I wish everyone would stop thinking that the government owns anything. It all belongs to us born on this land. the government are the trustees of our trust and we are the Beneficiaries
seems about right,, There's Egyptian artifacts at the Grand Canyon and the government cemented over the entrance and made it illegal to go,take pictures or fly drones..Our history is all a lie and a scam to keep people slaves to the system of consuming..imagine if we all got along,cant be having that
Erase history so you can't determine your future
The government is a terrorist organization. Your complicit behavior is terroristic
You should never report significant discoveries to our government officials
Hooray ! subtitles ! I'm deaf, you cared ! THUMBS UP !!!
The only man guaranteed to get rich in a gold rush is the man selling the shovels.
& the brothel owner.
The goverment already have a. Way to detect. Large delosites and small. Gold within the planets suface. Why would they want anybody to have it ?
The goverment can detect the deposites of gold thru satellite. We ll i may have said to much ill probably get wacked for talking about it. Lol
Got maps for a fair price. And shovels along with pans. For sifting. Contact me for more info
I got shovels for 3 dollars each. Ifn you buy ten at that price I'll throw in handles for 10 dollars each
Might not be a "Cure", but it Surely is a gift from those who went before. I wish you happy hunting and blessed travels. Thank you for the video, my Mother needed to see this, and I am sure that it will make her smile. I am thankful for that . Just remember that each and every day IS a gift and that you can make it or break it with each move. This being said; the smallest of gestures can change ones' life. :)
The only treasure I’ve ever found here in Oklahoma is cheap land and low taxes! 👍
And beautiful girls
There’s gold but it doesn’t jump into your pocket. Been hunting for many years and usually went home with some pull tabs and random iron pieces. One lucky day I was hunting along a sharp bend on an old dried up stream bed and got an awesome looking target about 9 inches down. Ended up being a 1.6 oz gold nugget. I’m sure it’s gonna be the best find of my life. Unless I can find a cache of gold coins like in CA! Lucky hunting gentlemen!
My daughter's great grandpa died about 10 yrs ago @ 96. He told me when he was a young child he stumbled upon treasure in the Wichita mnts. He was too young to realize and spent 70 yrs looking for it again.
Wow where?
@@bradwyrick4738 I think it was around Camel Back MTN. In the quartz range. He told me lots of jewels and gold but he was only about 6 then.
If he was only six, draw a 500m radius around anywhere he was likely to be near his mother or the house. Maybe a picnic area.
I'm from Oklahoma Tulsa part and I moved to North Dakota in 2015 I miss the history and the Oklahoma ways #gottalovethesouth
come on back!!
I used to live in Tulsa too as a kid, also Moved up north, but I'm originally from here.
Thats because Oklahoma forced you to take oklahoma history😌
Ya I'm from Lawton myself but moved to Talsa as a Teenage when I lived on the streets. But meaning to go home as soon as I can. Now live in western Minnesota near the SD line. Is there a way we can start a friendship. Because I'm 54 don't know to many falks from The sooner state would like to have a true friend some day. But don't know who to trust any more. I'm ex-army and not right away but maybe someday it be nice to find someone to go hunting with then if our friendship strengthens maybe go gold hunting. And use what my share for prepping. But enuff about me can you tell me about you. davidaimegates@yahoo.com C/O David
I was born in Oklahoma City and raised in Lawton, Sterling, and Elgin!! I have lived in Tennessee since 1993 I sure miss it sometimes !! Especially talking about the old days!! Lol god bless !!
The guy who went to buzzards Roost was incorrect in his direction. He was pointing west when it in fact is east in the directions. To get to the top a person was meant to climb up the west side, walk around to the rock (cave was found with bucket) then from the rock head down the hill on the east side 50 yards (150 feet)
Indian casinos have all the gold in Oklahoma now 😁😁
White man take Indian's land.
Now Indian take White Man's money.
@Ted jaramillo True.
This has been happening since man formed groups and tribes. In fact the entire animal and plant kingdom has struggled for land and space.
They should with all that scammed covid relief money 💸
As a tribal member I can attest to how greedy they have become in the casinos especially I've went in with 1000 dollars playing dollar machines at max bet and wasn't in there 45 minutes they just sucked it down so fast never even hit anything and I've heard from alot of people it's got way worse the last 6 or 7 years
@@killuminati9317 boo whoo
Where's the gold? Right were the government won't let you look for it.....
Here in NY any gold you find is the states property... Doesn't matter where you find it, it's theirs! Now who's land is it? Not yours! Lol
@@mikehunt8375 They can't claim what they don't know about... plenty of out of state buyers.
You come here and mess up my home dirt you will end in it.
Yeah really!! They probably found a smidget and know that there’s. A helluva lot more but haven’t found it yet!! That’s why they say it’s against the law to metal detect, or pan for gold?? Bastards lol
I live close to broken bow, and i have to say that there is a lot to be found here. Quirts crystals there is tons of them. in fact they have some worth more money then what these people think that they are worth. i have had two appraised for both 3,500 dollars. i have bought a metal detector i have found 10 oz of silver, and found that some shale rock has trace gold in them.
Jerry I wouldn't tell too many people if I were you.
Oh I see I'm a little too late with my comment.
Sshhhhh
Quartz crystals..
@Harry Clams LOL Ok then.. I live within 50 miles of Mt Ida officially known as the quartz crystal capital of the U.S. and is known worldwide for its quartz deposits
quartz
I'm from the other side of mining. When superfund sites like tar creek. Dominated the land and was left there to poisen the poor.
if you find it do not tell any body they will take it from you
My family moved to the Wichitas in 1895 and never left. I still live in the original homestead. We're a bunch of mixed halfbreeds 😆. We looked for gold when we were kids by the creek on our place. Not far off North Fork. All we found was a human tooth. My grandma: " u kids stay away from that one spot in the creek"
I lived in Grantie Oklahoma an lived in Altus Oklahoma for around 4 years. Most of the land around there is owned by rich cotton / wheat / corn farmers or is privately owned an you can't get no where near these sites to look around without getting a gun pulled on you an trespassing an locked up. The farmers an private land owners know the history on there property an what any richest found there for themselves or they don't care most that own the land around there are rich spoiled an the land been handed down from mema an pawpaw an the young folks are trust fund babies with money an power in that area . A poor working man is just a slave working for these people an don't have a chance to better his self not inless he comes from the elite important rich family name in the area. People probably won't like my comments but in the 4 years I lived in that area it was plainly seen by me . They haves an the have nots
you kinda just described all of human society since the ancient egypt yo.
Gold is where you find it and comes in various places but nice to find.
This iron door is actually from Bell Star she was a woman outlaw and her gang robbed a train and took the door off the train, dragged it into the canyon and cemented it into the location. This was their hideout and cache behind it. The door is made of iron so it needed to be hidden from not only people but the gleam of the sun daily which will ruin it long term. The door is still there.
Where did they steal the cement?
@@charleschampion4682 they didn’t steal the cement. It’s an acquired thing people have. The door was placed into rock. It would still be around today actually. The door came from a train car they used and pulled by horses into the canyon. It was from a train robbery
@@polymathperspective One of my long term galfriends that is the great niece of Bells was told by other family members. The stash was put in wild woman cave. That is in the Arbuckle mtns. It got washed away in rain that flooded the cave.
Mike pung is such a great guy and pleasure to say hes a friend.
My great aunt and uncle owned a mercantile store in South East Oklahoma, McCurtain County. They would give previsions to Frank and Jesse James after they robbed a bank or stagecoach or even a train in Texas. When they crossed the Red River into Oklahoma they would always stop at Parson's Mercantile. After Bill Parson passed away she remarried and moved to California. I spoke with her grandson, he confirmed that it really happened. He recorded her talking about them. I ask him to make copies of the recording. He said he would, unfortunately he passed away before he could make them. After he passed I spoke with his son. I ask about the recording and he said that his daughter had trashed them when she was cleaning out his house. That broke my heart.
That was really good. Thank you
Ya get to "Play in the Dirt with Friends" -
What's not to love about this!?!
Makes me want to - go make new friends - I keep thinking about Crystal Digging - like Arkansas and their Diamond Field.
Love this Earth - and she's so good to us - 🌎🌍🌏🍀❤💫⭐
Great expectations! Souvenirs & chit chat galore!
That's Bill Mahan at 14:29 not Cook. These photos are mostly from Wilson's book. I believe that Jesse's part of the cache is still out there. Buzzards Roost is only a 30 minute drive from me and there's too many finds to regard the story as legend. A gold bar is worth around $25,000 or so. A bar connected to the James Gang? We're talking a pretty penny.
Some of the best rock climbing you'll ever find is in the Quartz and Wichita Mountains,
how old is the refuge seems Congress is so money hungry that any gold bearing is going for lock up solution vote freedom caucus and drain the swamp we re headed for Marshall law watch your guns
Some of the best rattlesnakes too.
Real nice video, really enjoyed watching it.
Great video. I was born and raised in SE and NE Oklahoma. We spent 8 years in the Texas Panhandle. I never heard anyone ever say "Goad" instead of gold, like a couple of people in this video. I have a couple of gold detectors but never though of bringing them back when I visit. I have ran coin and relic metal detectors since 1973 though. Found some very cool things, especially on our TX ranch (8,000 acres).
Holy cow that’s a lot of land!!! U lucky dog!!! U ever need any help metal detecting give me a shout!!
Sure they do, their nasal intonation hides the consonant "L"
I found some gold once in Lebanon, OK. Two pieces of rock. I gave one away. I kept the other and still have it today.
You been holding on to fools gold for a long time....
@@The69powerwagon
Having a good evening? Feel the need to pic a fight?
Never said how long ago.
Never said where in Lebanon, and according to the jeweler in ardmore. It's not much, valued at $22. I kept the rock because I think the memory is worth more to me.
@@ritzdew9640 No that wosent my intention sorry you took it that way....
@@The69powerwagon
Yah sorry. I was already in a bad mood. Had a bad day.
Spent many days chasing worm turds, love the activity.
so let me get this straight: the Spaniards risked life and limb to find gold, only to bury it and come back later? just like pirates, this makes zero sense. They arrived there by (sometimes) 800 ton ships... plenty of room to bring it back. we know of the el dorado wreck in the Bahamas which had so much of montezuma's treasure aboard, the captain had to jettison all of her ballast stones.
A Shore What about when you're extremely far inland of your ships, though? Coronado up in Colorado would've been extremely far from his ships.
some hide it to avoid taxes, others closed their mines to go to spain and come back to re open and keep working on, other hide their mines from battles and fair to dead. specially in mexico, were they were kicked out by mexican independnece. etc
Oklahoma is landlocked by many a mile and at that time was largely wilderness. If they were tracking all over the great state of Oklahoma in that day and age I promise some gold and silver would've eventually been left for the sake of transporting more of the true essentials like clothing, blankets, cookware and food and water.
Lived in Hobart OK in '82 and my girlfriend's daddy had a ranch near Mountain Park in the Crystal Mts., Quartz Crystals.
Ted jaramillo his point is that gold is present in quartz crystals. I have dug up many different types of minerals like amethyst, etc. The area is full of fossils.
Have to ask myself, how much would an iron door weigh, and where did it come from? How far did they have to carry it, and why would they have an iron door with them in the first place. Why not just hide the entrance with stone?
Agreed. Then they speak of coins of gold and bags of gold. Just a story.
They used mules. In the high altitudes of the Sierras in California there's a place called Jordan's hot springs. It was a vacation spot for celebrities and the wealthy. Everything was packed in with mules and all of the cabins, clubhouse etc were built on site. They packed in a 4 cylinder engine, all of the sawmill equipment etc. It was packed in and assembled on site
Legend goes that they used their horses to pull the iron door from the train that they robbed and then dragged it behind them to the mountains. 🤷🏻♀️
I live in the former home of Tom Starr, the father-in law of Belle Starr. Makes me wonder what may be around the bluff behind my house
He was a known bootlegger and outlaw. I have been metal detecting hoping to uncover some bit of history
makes me wonder too!😳
There’s a fella named Tom star in my town but he’s Apache so they might not be related. I live about 30 miles north of the Wichita wildlife refuge
Bell Starr cave is located near here in Tahlequah in a wildlife refuge. I have been there. I would love to go to Wichita Mountains & look for gold and rock carvings.
Happy Hunting!👋
I could come and check your property for any hidden treasure. I live in texas. Heres my e-mail fernmun64@gmail.com
I live about 3 miles north west of the gold belle mining site.
Chase Jesus! He's the real treasure.
I sure would like to find some good coins! Here in Corpus Christi TX they say there's pirate treasure on Padre island! Metal detecting is fun , I've found good things but not gold coins .
Correction,spanish treasure 1554 shipwreck treasure.
I like the video except for the turning the volume up and down, I understand its an old one but cant you remaster sound?
I'm hooked now
I just got my first metal detector and iam going to go to the old property's that doesn't exist anymore and its woods and hunt the Beaches 🌴of maine and river Beds i cant whate to get it going.
I love detecting too (many yrs).....enjoy yourself and stay safe brother.
Watch out for Snakes!!!!
I love your show I my self am a Cherokee citizen.
OKLAHOMA HAS NO GOLD......ONLY OIL......BLACK GOLD.....HILL BILLY STYLE YA'LL.
Thank god for the okie oil boomin days. My grandpa hit it big!
....Black gold...Texas tea... ( I'm an Okie) Oklahoma has changed since childhood in the '80s. Our government has blocked off all cool places (clear creeks you could drink from; 10-acre rock; swimming holes; waterfall/dams, etc. But soooo much fun for us kids growing up with. Now they have claimed all the cool camping places. Many of these private camping grounds was cleared by my 80 year old father. And the Oklahoma Land Run (free land, which was mostly the gov't stealing from the Native Americans in order to get people here that they could make money from rather than mostly bartering.) I am at least happy that my ancestors paid fair and square for their land. Daddy even dug out our own wells after clearing parts of the land, etc. He passed away last month. But he is with Jesus. No telling what's up there that we have yet to see.
Tammy Ileene I’m sorry about your daddy ❤️❤️❤️

Wholeness And Spiritual Realization to the collective Appreciate the Video And Divine INsight #🪶🪶🖼🖼
Maybe all that fracking will cause the gold to rise up..
It'll sure make property available as the residents die off.
We didn't even become a state until 1907 here in Oklahoma!! It was called Indian Territory before it was called Oklahoma which means Red man or Red Men!! I'm proud to be Native American Choctaw Indian and very proud!!!
The original story went - "the gold was found in the northeast section of Oklahoma before the land rush and hauled away in Mr. Peabody's wagons by teamsters".
The hole is still there on the north west point of buck mountain.
Great video
you mention the SOUTHWEST corner of Oklahoma and then show near the PANHANDLE in the high northwest??!!!
There is no lost gold it's just a wild goose chase interesting story though
+Marina Getchell-- Said the professional rock hound/historian who can't grasp the concept of simple punctuation.
adjust your volume higher and keep it stable....everything else is great. Think Volume.....and everyone elsr doing these things or listen to them before posting....please...thnx.
the OET should do one on the legend of pine knott crossing in southeast oklahoma on the little river.
I know it's an old comment but they should do one on jaybuckle oklahoma. I still live in the Wichitas. My family has been on my very spot since 1895.
@Jeremy 77 it's all good in the hood when you own the entire hood. I will die here like all of mine before me.
I LIVE IN EUFAULA , OKLAHOMA. LETS GO TREASURE HUNTING!!
ImHerE4THE LASTLaUgH same. Is there gold here?
Haha
I'm in Luther
Nice video
One thing I learn never take kids treasure hunting
Being a life-long resident of the area, too educated to waste days and nights transporting "black sand" into my house, and a persistent believer of P.T. Barnum's quote, "There's a sucker born every minute,"". I'll just drink a cup of coffee and watch each generation run off to search mass-trodden spots because they think they can find El Dorado's site.
I hope you guys find 'color' :)
Why is the sound so quiet even at full volume
I know exactly where the gold is but I'll never tell
Who' gold?
You don't know where the gold us maybe where lizards shit but that's it 😅😅
I know of a creek in southwest okla with a area with black sand
Steve Meade , Turkey Creek. Close to Canute?
Near lake lawtonka by Lawton
Steve Meade , okay, I know the area. Medicine Park and all that. I hope you find ya some😎
There are like 25 turkey creeks in Oklahoma and Texas
They have Satellites that can tell them exactly where it is!
Fram 27:47 stop..he points to it..clear as a bell..im telling you..look in the distance..see white bar..on horizon..walla..found it..half is mine other half landowner of that bar in distance..i published on this day..ACA does it again..
I am going there tomorrow....🤣🤣
My G-Mom remarried for the 6th or 7th time about 10yrs ago to a wonderful good old boy from Oklahoma, just outside of Ponca City, along the Arkansas river. Believe it or not, they met while on a cruise to Alaska. Anyway I'll skip the love story, she thought she knew all about her new hubby until she moved out west. a large stream running through her back yard, she called it ATM stream, after a storm the stream would rise and leave behind thousands of dollars worth of gold, I didn't believe her until I spent a month with her, holy sheep shit she wasn't just screwing with me. So when they say there's not much gold on Oklahoma, that's a big sack of shit!
So lets get this right, your g-gramma married 6-7 times about 10 yrs ago. let me guess, you made this comment on a fri or sat night whilst a drinking that there shine.
Shhhhjh
Maybe " iron door" was just a figure of speach?
iron door would be very very ez to find with a radioshack detector...
It washed to Muskogee in the big flood 1980'$. Come and get it
I knew it, I knew it"""🥰😍🤩
Rich silver low grade gold but gold none the less! Spanish got most of the gold worth while! But once you hit the divide headed west, wooo lordy that's where the gold is
Oh, no sir ! Not only in the west, no sir not at all.
@@shanghunter7697 that's just closest to Oklahoma. Obviously there is the southern gold belt, glacial gold in the midwest, shallow epithermal veins as well as tectonic deposits in upper new England. Come on now, I got gold in my name bud... I'm a full time gold Prospector. Found gold in 24 states so far. Don't take the comment personally. Was headed west outta Georgia at the time.
@@nhragold1922 have you prospected in Indiana, there is gold there!!!
Racing Prospector, Do you think there is any gold in the Northeast US?
@@superbee-di5tp yeah there is. Maine, new Hampshire, ct, ma, vt, ny all have gold. I found gold in all those states myself

"blowin up stuff... to mine for gode.."
the moldy bills would be dated no? why not mention that or even the date? OK. is a good place to look tho..when I was stationed in Ft Sill I looked myself..sure was fun
I was the job corp kid. Grandma told me to never tell anyone. So of you know who Grandma was then you may know my dad,& wells Blevins. I still remember right where it is. No joke.

let's go get it! 👑
Hello John, I have exact copy of Blevins Map
Silas E. Blevins.
I know Danny Blevins he was one heck of a noodler , and hunter , he had to , to feed the family ! Can't Eat gold i guess !!!
Never have looked just deer haunted that area
There must have been a military map guy with them boys..to easy
I used to live in hollis Oklahoma
It hasn't rained since you left Hollis and I don't know when you left Hollis.
They brought smallpox and diesease's,where thousands of Indigenous died,according to the Elders,those doors contain the remains of thousands smallpox victims buried in the moutains,elders,say tribes found and had metal vest and helmets they threw away because they were to hot to wear and on a pack train raid,the gold captured then they scattered gold all over the place,(Witchita mts.)present day Elgin to Cashe etc.because gold didnt mean anything to them.As for jesse,(cowtown)-(tent city)Nadarko,when he needed money,he would mount his horse and ride south of Nadarko towards(cyril) and be back in about 45minutes,however,it dont take that short of time to go there,that time would put him in the area 3 miles south of nadarko..in the present day Indian city.
Hey Burt... Shawn Carroll
Look up the story of ingalls Oklahoma would make a great western
I'll definately be honest with you guys. Lets just say I'm in the woods and I come across something thats significant amount of gold is involved sure I'm going to make that phone call to tell someone about it but it's just to report it not to tell them hey my name is such n such and I'm out here at? Your not going to do that. You are going to tell them that you found something in the area just to report it. I think people keep things hush hush soo they don't get in trouble with what they find but in all honesty it really does cause a problem and a big stir of echoes for not letting people know that you atleast found something so it can be atleast reported.
Oklahoma had gold
I guess the spanish went all over. Boston to Budapest
8:34 weather modification in progress.. top right off screen... white cloud line
Spraying like crazy near red river and Wichita Falls
Why would someone conquering take gold to bury it. He took that gold with him 😝
Maybe being in a blizzard with 18 mules dying one by one and no way to carry it anymore? you think? Maybe someone on their on trail and loaded down mules don't run very fast? Maybe just maybe they where freezing to death moving like a herd of turtles so bury it and ride on faster to your house? should i go on or do you sound enough like a fool yet?
Chasing yet more gold over vast swathes of largely unexplored territory and eventually I'm sure the means of transport starts being needed more for the true essentials food, cookware, clothes and water. Hide it well enough you can return for the gold and silver in later trips.
My grandmother lived in Oklahoma and she said jesse james and his gang camped on her farm said they were nice she was born in 1856.i dont no much about her but that was one thing I was told she died in 1962..
@Plan b My mom and her sister saw Pretty Boy Floyd's dead body on display in East Liverpool, Ohio after he was shot and killed just outside of town.

My family came to the Wichitas in 1895 and never left. I still live in the original homestead. We're all mixed half breeds. 😆
My great-grandmother said the same thing. Said her family fed them and hid them when they needed it. She lived at Wood county and Parker county TX.
