Precious evidence of mankind's endeavors to survive, locate and process precious metals remain as proof to this legendary mystery.

The next pages are a series from Historical Society files- documents, newspaper clippings, short stories, references and links- all pertaining to the Santa Catalina Mountain Range. The stories cover from the 1880s until now.

The first reaction to these stories and legends is apprehension and bewilderment. However, some truth exists no matter how abstract.

Let us turn back the pages of time and see what someone else said about this mystery.

Keep in mind this research is from historic documentation and not fiction- although it could be wrong or exaggerated.

Through indoctrination to the area, an understanding of life and its sciences has been of more value than all the gold in the canyon. In the development of the area, it is proposed to preserve the area and its value for future generations to come.

A hearty thanks and special mention to all those enlightened persons who have aided the never ending project of understanding and its values.
