Hello Mudflap,
Never looked at Dents Run.....but I do pass it heading up to Keating Ghost Town. That legend has never been confirmed in any of the US Army archives so I'll pass on that one. A couple of guys who write on these supposed legends I think just make a lot of stuff up. Many of these legends never existed before they started to write and they can't identify their sources for their information....seems suspicious to me.
Now there is a legend of Blackbeard's (not Edward Teach) Silver in Pennsylvania. Supposed to be either 1.5 or 5 million in silver bars buried at the ghost town of Gardeau. I do know quite a bit about this including the source of the legend and Blackbeard's real name and family history of Col. Noah Parker. It's really some fascinating stuff.
I generally stick to hunting remote ghost towns in the Pennsylvania mountains.
