This sounds like a variation of the lost adams diggings story but adams survived his attack as well as Jacob Snively, though not much is known about Snively after that it’s said that Adams spent decades trying to relocate his treasure. To my knowledge, it wasn’t around red hill, this is the first i’ve heard of it in this area. This version doesn’t fit the original story that puts his party farther northeast of this location.
Never heard the story told with Adams being the one to return to Pinos Altos, only Jacob Snively. I know the part about Adams death is false as he roamed these parts for 3 decades searching and was seen in almost every town and settlement.
