I love these stories told by Hank. Yes, so important to protect the petroglyphs and the area of Apache Springs.
Greetings and Blessings from Akld, NZ.
Battling a nasty head n chest cold last 4 days n can't sleep. Thanks for the video once again. Nothing like hearing that opening music at 3am
Back 50 years ago there was a story going around that you couldn't spend the night there, some tried and couldn't make it. They said they heard the wind that turned to faint howling and rocks moving. Pretty cool!
It's nice to see Hank tell stories of my true love the superstitions I first started going there in 1979 until.i moved to Vegas in 93 I miss my deadly back yard playground I consider my second home great story Hank you sir are a great story teller
Same here , I moved to Tx in the late 90’s. But I really miss AJ. And MY mountain ... 🤠🎸🎶
Thanx gents history is riveting
Great stories thanks for the invite, its on my bucket list!👍🙋♀️🙅♀️🙆♀️
I have only visited the superstitions one time, but they got a real hold on my imagination. Love hearing these stories.
AWESOME story! Thank you
Great story!
amazing hank*thank you* im from portugal and im trully fascinated by the superstitions *
Great video thanks!
Yes, these stories and accounts are great; I feel like I am there.
I'm totally envious of Hank's amazing shirt with the sweet embroidery! This story also brings back memories of hunting for petroglyphs in the California desert.
Hank is the best. My step dad had to get Whipple surgery this summer. Thank God the tumor was not cancerous.
My niece and her family live in Mesa. I hope to be able to go visit one day.
REALLY, A FANTASTIC STORY....
@ A BEAUTIFUL PART OF AMERICA.
Thank you for your service to this great nation Hank. US ARMY here. I love your stories and great information. Please keep them coming. Thanks Again!!
Thank you both from a devil dog! Best channel on CZcams!
Thanks much for the history lesson and great story. Take care.

Loved listening to this feller talk. No doubt a good ol guy.
Love the old stories and history of our amazing state. And you tell them so well.
"Dance Fancy Pants!" Pew! Pew! I went to that Movieland place when I was a youngster back in the early 70's.
Yes Arizona has some beautiful scenery and I always appreciate your stories on this channel.
it would be nice if a rosetta stone for them petroglyphs can be found , taking one less mystery out of them superstitions, thanks hank & crew
There isn't one.
Great video. Enjoyed it. But I do have to differ with you on one thing. Yes they do give us a glimpse into the past. But I believe they also give us a glimpse into the future.
Greetings from Rhode Island... I hope to make it out that way this year on my way to California. I’d love to hear some of these stories in person and experience the history of the Superstition Mountains!
Did you ever make it out here ? It starting to get hot !
You guy's rock.
Very good story about a most interesting place. I wish we could know just what he meant by hmmm.
Thanks guys! Way to go Hank! Nice to wake up with the sunrise and have a new Mysteries of the Superstition staring me in face. Awesome! Petroglyphs warm my heart. Great tale Hank! Thanks for sharing your life and knowledge with us. Lvya bro
I grew up in the Phoenix area and now live in the foothills of the Superstition mountains. The legend of the Lost Dutchman is alluring, enchanting and alive to this day. This attracts some strange folks, as I have witnessed on day hikes. For example, the guy with the homemade camper on his truck and the look on his face when I said, Good morning. Word to the wise there are many, "Dutch hunters" out there still, whom may not see your presence as friendly. On another note I love these guys. There stories appear to be accurate.
HI from Portugal, is wonderful to listen the stories from Larry! Is a great story teller, I like very much to meet him In person! Thanks for being around and fascinated us with the history of superstition mountains.
My first experience with the Superstitions was had at Apache spring which ignited my love for those mountains.
Thanks once more for the story told by someone who has experienced the scenes and people of the area. Always an entertaining time for me.
“Soak it up like a sponge”. Hank, I’m just like you in that aspect.. I am fascinated by the information you are passing on to us..
Great story Hank good to be back where i have internet again. Didn't think would miss it
Although I grew up in AZ, I moved to MN about 22 years ago. I visited the Superstitions and did some GREAT hiking and exploring in 2022 and was enchanted; I always knew of the stories but had never visited the area while living in AZ (Why??). Ive never felt satisfied up here in MN, AZ is magical and it pulls very hard at me. I would love to move back, but I feel like its important to always try for a new experience, so I thought I would move close, but not back, to AZ. Perhaps New Mexico, similar but different.
Love it. ❤️
Keep em comin’ boys I’m gonna listen to these mysteries as long as you keep tellin them.. thanks again for preserving American Southwest history and folklore…
Take nothing but photos.
Leave nothing but footprints!
Thanks for the story's.
Howdy y’all- wonderful story. Thank you so much for putting these stories together and telling them as only a mesmerizing story teller could. God bless y’all
I will be out there in May. looking forward to meet all you wonderful people.
thank you "Hank" your story are awesome.... ....happy trails always...
Hiya guys! Hank that's such a beautiful story.

Beautiful shirt Hank, lol.
"float a spoon in the coffee" LOL
A true Storyteller! Thanks for sharing.
Thankyou for another awesome video with good stories and pictures of strange and wondrous hidden places. The spring and photographs are really good to see . Hope they stay that way for future generations to see. 😎
Thank you Larry and Hank. I was just recently talking to a friend about Apache Springs that it was a relatively easy hike. I should check it out before the summer this year. Interesting story about this. 🌞
My husband and I used to drive a long dangerous dirt road to the 3 lakes up there in the '80's. Beautiful- and especially liked a shorter trip down a dirt road called Peralta Trail in our little '77MGB. Can't believe we took such an unreliable car into that wilderness-lol. Spookiest mountains I've ever seen and I love all the Lost Dutchman books and lore I've read about it. Good to hear your stories, love your work!
Superstition Mountain is my" happy place"!
Love your video, always glad to see a new one.
Like ,like ,like

Great storys Hank ...
This channels great, makes me less home sick. Back when I lived in Arizona I used to go to Hieroglyphic canyon when I was 16-17. It was the first place I started hiking at when I would go into the mountains. It’s probably my favorite part of the mountain or the area near three sisters summit and the Apache kids cave. I always wondered what all the petroglyphs mean. I’ve never been able to find other petroglyphs in the mountains but I have found many grind holes and throw away spots. Thank you for another great video!
As usual a very educational and interesting piece of Arizona history. I have mentioned this before ..I started coming out in 1977 and lived on Warner Rd., it was the southern most east west running road and (-Dirt) at that time. South of Warner was all desert or orange grove. always loved the weekends off from work when we would head to the Superstitions.. Wish I had met you both back in those early days., Take good care and keep the stories coming . I never tire of listening in !!!
Thank You for another awesome video. Gets questions raised. Take Care
Best channel on youtube
I saw it as a kid and met an old man named Barney Bernard who had written a book about the Dutchman.
Love these stories and information guys! Hank is one good storyteller!
Godbless The cowboys and Charlie
Here in Tucson Arizona taking care of my elderly father...My great great grandfather settled in Trinidad Colorado in 1872. Captured Black Jack Ketchum in 1898 for train robbery. Hung in 1901 Clayton NM.
One of your best!
Great story,
I grew up in Tucson in the late 50s on through the 1970s and returned often to the region including Apache Springs. Now as an environmental sociologist, I often think about petroglyphs and wonder what was going through the minds of those who drew them. Was it simply graffiti of the time? Early travelers with wagons and coaches, after all, were known to toss belongings or broken parts for various reasons which were then trash. We find an old broken wagon part and now have something significant. As an armchair American historian, I too enjoy good hikes into the past.
Awesome
Every time I see this show I think charlie I never meet him other then the host of this program but I miss him
I've been to this spot a few times. I noticed the grind holes, it kinda made me wonder if while the women were grinding grains, if kids were drawing the glyphs, just trying to keep occupied while the adults worked. They're still cool, but I've wondered if this is in part why no one knows exactly what they mean.
They are grind holes! They are all over south west Utah mostly in Remote areas
The animals are there to help tell stories to youngsters how to recognise and catch game for food. The snakes are the creator giant snake that carved the rivers as they went along. The strange figures are the dancers. They know this because Australian Aboriginals know the stories of the ancestors.
@@charlielaudico3523 the grind holes are water catchers.
Same here! Arizona was always destine to be HOME for me after growing up in the HOT and Humid mosquito infested Gulf Coast! Don't mind the heat, but the humidity just killed me! Moved to AZ and never looked back! I was always destined to be a Desert Rat! HA!
There actually are hieroglyphs in various locations of the USA. The Southwest is one of the locations.
Visited Apache Land with my young son's, took a stagecoach ride. Later watched my boys doing the gunfight scenes with their gun belts buckled around their underwear my boots up to their knees demanding Rio to give up his millions of dollars, hiked up a trail where water flowed over the smooth rocks and listened to someone from ASU explain the petroglyphs.
One day I and an aquaintence were hitch hiking out of the mountains up by Kearney ,Winkleman ,Kelvin past Ray Pit .We were digging blue stone like Cryscolla and anything of that nature.Anyway we ended up at, I believe Apache Springs and a school bus pulled over .A man stepped out and said"I will give you a ride if you will just wait a couple of minutes ".Well we finally boarded and started down the road .We introduced ourselves and I asked him why he had us wait before boarding .He then told me to open up the door to the back of the bus.Now the bus was turned into a motor home .And it had a bedroom in the back with a door.So I opened the door and a huge paw grabbed hold and opened the door completely and an almost grown African lion stepped out.What should one do?This is a true story.Doobey the lion was seen all over the valley of the sun that year untill he was given to a man in San Fernando who raised exotic animals for H.wood.That was in 72.
We tried going up in June one year from Wyoming but the snow was too deep .
Hey! What movies were made out there in Apache Movie Land?
Just wondering...
If I may, sir. Please pick up and read "The Rocks Begin to Speak", by Lavan Martineau. This will go a long way toward understanding the petroglyphs, that many of us call "rock writing". I think you'll be a bit amazed at what you can learn by reading the petroglyphs. Ed Swanzey
Hank have you heard of a Cherokee named Willie White Feather i befriended him at boyscout camp Geronimo he told me he lived off the foothills of the superstition mountains just curious this was mid late eighties
I wonder how I can connect to the same Spirits the Indians used to connect to? I do not do drugs but I drink a little Jim Beam every now and then. Hehehe. I really would love to hear what the Indian Spirits have to say because I am getting sick and tired of Washington d.c. not making any sense at all. I wish you would do a video on the Indian spirits. Thanks
I heard it was Cochise an his band of Apache ..
@Hank Sheffer true ! I watched a utube channel the other day about the Apache wars about Cochise and the Apache spring the white kid got kidnapped the army took Cochise family hostage and the war started then ...
Hey any of y’all know if Gary Holt is still alive ????
He owned Holt Auto for many years.
@Hank Sheffer appreciate the response.
I.want tell me stories.
Love the stories. I still think that a good amount of the rock art and drawings are just from kids with nothing to do. Maybe too old to sit around with the others and too young to do the adult stuff like hunting and such. First draws an animals and the second kids says "thats nit how you draw it, its more like this", and before long all the rocks are covered in weird looking animal drawings..lol. I am just as sure there are drawings for many other things like directions and such too.
I think my life time of dammit piles might qualify as an environmental disaster. I'm close to the end so everybody just keep that down low for awhile. Thanks.
Graffiti by any other name is still graffiti.
Yep. Dumb name. And hard to spell.
Battling a nasty head n chest cold last 4 days n can't sleep. Thanks for the video once again. Nothing like hearing that opening music at 3am
