I'm trying to find as much information on the Lost Topaz Mine and the Lost Treasure of Devil's Head. I came across an article awhile back on the Lost Treasure. Have yet to come across it again. I got some interesting tidbits of info from the FS Rangers on Saturday, has my interests peaked yet again. Misewell kill two birds, one giant topaz. happy112.gif Hound and treasure hunt... that is (yes, hounding is treasure hunting, I know..)

Any info, ya can give, is much appreciated. I'll keep on my search in the meantime.

P to the S - I tried to do a search in forums for both, nothing came up, is there any posts reguarding either?

Thanks Rockyrat - I found similar info (tho not as gargled) I knew I had originally read it somewhere... thought it was a post here, turns out, it was the gem trails book. Following that and some other research I've done and some info I got from the FS rangers, I have a general idea where to look... at least for the "lost topaz mine." And I agree that it's not tech a mine, but rather one massive pocket. In my research (read the initial report from the first guy that stumbled on it) he stated that the pocket was 50ft long and 2-15ft wide, and averaging 4ft deep. No real mention of a mine. Other than the mine(s) that were created later on, on the best ground.... (so they think happy112.gif )
