Tayopa

	If we continue unmolested, I will clarify each point, except where the main deposit is or the actual entrance of Tayopa.

If you don't want to be molested then don't post BS you can't back up with proof are documentation. Some of us have watched you on other forums post the same old tired BS looking for your 5 minutes of fame. Lots of us don't believe your a treasure hunter at all. Why? No real hardcore hunter will ever go to a Internet forum and brag I found this treasure I found that treasure like you do.

	All of the other things will be explained in turn.

This is the game you like to play. Drag it out as long as you can like a soap opera. I can tell you have never read any threads here about other treasures., if you had you would see that if we want to debated a treasure we post all the info we have then hope other folks can add to it. Not you you want to add a  bit  here and a bit there just to stay in the spot light a little longer.

Good morning Ladies & Gentlemen:  Let's head for the patio where it is still cool for coffee and a round table discussion on Tayopa.

One of the reasons I posted in a so called 'drag it out' form, was to allow you to participate in the original search by presenting you with the data as I developed or found it, and to have you in effect accompany me with your interpretations and ideas to see if we are in agreement.

Of course, as has been suggested, I could simply say Yes, I have found it, period  then what?

Personally I believe it is far better to let you participate and see if you come up with the same conclusions that I did.

First I will post another confirmation of Dobie's map being almost 90 % correct and that I am at Tayopa.

There are two versions of Dobie's map, one has the mesa chica and the other does not, It depends who was copying what.

Hi my friends.  I commenced to watch movies online, particularly western ones, even the corny Italian ones. However, two  did bring me up short, they were "The Bravados" with Gregory Peck, also 'Garden of evil ' with Gary Cooper.  

Incidentally that trail on the cliff still exists, but it has not collapsed in the center section as in the movie..It was theoriginal trail down to La Reforma mine.  I tried to get it but lost in the sorteo.  They did lose pack animals and people on that trail though.

The filming is perfect and the scenery is superb. They travel over much of the ground that I did in the 50's. I could easily feel myself riding my mule back then again. The country became real. Those deep, distant barrancas were the ones where I explored in the initial phases of Lost Jesuit mine hunting.
I often spent weeks alone without meeting another human, and in those hidden barancas is where I had a few encounters with bandidos.

There are flocks of huge wild turkeys in the hundreds in the distant mesas and barrancas, Deer also. So it was only of a matter of a shot or so every week with my pistol to have plenty of camp meat..

The high falls that Gregoy Peck rides past is La Basaseachi, now a popular tourist mecca with Swiss Chalet type hotels etc. A highway now crosses the Sierras from Hermosillo to Chihuahua city, with modern gasoline stations every so often, and motels, sigh.

I first heard of the Basaseachi falls from an old Chinapa Indian. So I took off north from Chinapas, up the Chinapas river barrancas, then crossed over to the north west to the Mayo drainage and continued to the falls. It took me days to reach them, I had to make my own trail at times. I camped down below the falls for another three days, ate some trout, then returned to Chinapas. Now it is only a matter of a few hours in an air-conditioned car sigh.

Yes, this picture brought back many memories. I miss that country as it was, sigh, Nights where one could lie on his blanket, drink his hot coffee, listen to the coyotes sing their lonely songs of lost love and dinners earned, sniff the fresh, deliciously scented Pine air, which hinted of frost by morning, roll over and it 'was' morning. sigh.

So if you have access to movies on line, I strongly suggest watching 'Los Bravados' with Gregory Peck. and Gardenof Evil with Gary Coopper.if you don't have a movie channel, try searching for 'free online movies' which require no information from you, and join me for nostalgic riding. sigh.

Good evening Ladies and gentlemen; Coffee? an up date. They are pure city dwellers, but mean good. They did find the partially hidden mine below Tayopa which I had intended to finish when I was hit with the cancers and then held off.

Here are a few pictures to play with, especially the obvious barricade built to hold a back fill. There is another one beyond this. beyond ?? It had been put on hold, perhaps they might now open them up.

I might ask why would someone go to the trouble of creating backfills using materiel from outside of the mine to create them ?

No, this is not Tayopa, but Santo Nino, one of the mines of Tayopa

Hello Don Jose

Thanks for the photos. Have you managed to have any archaeological survey of site in question?

Hardluck
