Geronimo's Hidden Treasure
The story of Geronimo’s Hidden Mine with treasures of untold wealth is a story that Geronimo told his army captors about. He would not tell them the location without being released so he could make an escape.
Part of the story goes that the mine lies under the nose of a rock outcropping that is in the shape of an Apache warrior.
Two old prospectors and treasure hunters actually found the rock face and the entry to the mine around the 1950’s. Shortly after they found it their house burnt down and they didn’t make it back again.
Later they told the story to a fellow named Dick, who my brother happened to be working for and then told to me. Dick agreed to take me to see it as he had tried to open it up in 1970 but didn’t have any success.
We will walk you up Sycamore Canyon which is now in the Superstition Wilderness Area to show you the outcropping and discuss the rock formations along with showing you some of the fortifications that Geronimo had.

A story! Just a story,
Nice to see that area of Sycamore. Nice job and it is interesting to watch.
Geronimo lived hand to mouth his entire life. He had no treasure or mine. In the years leading up to his death, he was incarcerated at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. For income, he would go to the nearest town and pose for pictures with tourists. That’s how he made his living. He drank whiskey when he could get it. On the night he died, he was in town drinking and drunk and climbed on his horse to go back to For Sill. On the way, the drunken Geronimo fell off his horse and into a stream where he died. He was buried at Fort Sill.
Interesting, thanks.
