The Rocky Mountain Gold Hunt That's Claimed Multiple Lives | Myth Hunters

@1:16 Rumor has it that’s one of the most epic and legendary mullets that mankind has ever had the privilege to lay mortal eyes upon… witness how gloriously it drapes itself to either side of the neck of its host, the fiery orange tint of it, the luscious curls… such a magnificent mullet is the TRUE gold in this tale.

Dig around on native land. Get attacked by the folks who live there. Dig around on native land again. Get attacked by folks who live there, again. Dig around in the wilderness after dark. Get attacked by animals that live there. "It's a curse!" Suuuuuuure it is.

Legends of gold are an excellent way to get young men into the wilderness.

If I found a treasure like that, I don't know if I would tell anyone.

I’ve read about this story for years and my gut tells me the natives recovered the gold after the initial attack.

The Indians saw where the first treasure hunters buried it. The Indians then moved the treasure.

They managed to bring up tons of bricks to build the underground chamber, but they couldn't bring down the gold. Interesting.

Forrest Fenn probably found it and gave it to Cynthia Meachum

Sure, its sitting right next to The Oak Island treasure!!

The great treasure is salvation through Jesus Christ.

This is the biggest bunch of Horsesh!t I've ever watched. I became skeptical when it stated the men refined and made gold bars in the wilderness. Without mules or a large contingent of men to haul supplies.

33 million ounces of gold is quite substantial. Weight is incredible. How many buried it? Maybe the whole mountain is the treasure cause that's a huge pile of gold. What about remnants of a furnace? Where did they get the fluxes? So many unanswered questions. Why did they go all the way through the mountains from the Platte River and not find any gold on the north fork of the south Platte? Why all the way across the state? Plenty of mines have been worked throughout the years in places they would have walked over?😊

Good tale. The legend of Crazy Beaver Creek.

People are underestimate the proper burial treasure site, it has a very dangerous traps and have a very deep buried, and part of the treasure is a Decoy or empty.

This was the old west days, so tell me why: None of the follow-up treasure hunters brought side arms (gun) or even knives? Especially after hearing of the killings of those before them. Makes no sense. . .

Maybe Bigfoot has the gold 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Definitely a metal detector job.

What a neat story. If the story and markers are real, why has there not been a recent expedition? Curse or no curse.

Excellent information and narration...

The problem people may face is that the UTE may have known it was gold that the French found. Since they killed or ran those men off, they may have messed with the symbols a bit to keep people from finding it when they came back again. Also, they killed his grandson. So it seems to me they may have moved the treasure or messed up the trail to keep the mountain safe. If the mountain was a sacred place, the UTE would have done all they could to keep settlers away from it. It's a theory, anyway.
