The Dutchman's Trail
The Legend of The Superstition Mountains
By Jesse Feldman, 2024
With 30 years on the trail of the Lost Dutchman Mine, Feldman brilliantly unravels the mystery of how this mine vanished from existence 145 years ago. Feldman exposes the first story-tellers of the Lost Dutchman Mine who infamously corrupted the Legend by sending searchers down a dangerous trail to a volcanic peak called Weaver's Needle where there is no gold. Owing to their deliberate deception, the search for the truth has been the most difficult treasure hunt of all. Closing the gap between myth and truth, Feldman brings to light the location of the Lost Dutchman Mine with absolute certainty on a lofty ridge in the Superstition Mountains.

Traveling on foot through some of the most rugged desert terrains in the world, Ted Cox with his dog, Coy, desperately try to make it to the Quarter Circle U Ranch in the Superstition Mountain. Ted is seriously ill and his dog’s feet are blistered from the hot desert floor. Finally arriving at the ranch, he inadvertently overhears a plot to murder Adolf Ruth, a man who has come to search for the illusive Lost Dutchman Mine. While trying to prevent Ruth’s murder, Ted becomes entwined in a high stakes journey filled with mystery and scandal when he also learns of a more sinister plan, which began when Arizona was still a territory.
