  • Here is the second part of my video that covers caves of the Wichita Mountains. This video focuses on the more "mythical" caves mentioned in Steve Wilson's Oklahoma Treasure Tale book. If you haven't read his book, please purchase it, you are missing out!

    The giant man skeleton is so interesting! Many consider giants a myth however it's even biblical. So much history in our backyard. I'm located in Altus.

    I hiked the 1968 plane crash right across from Mt. Scott with a friend in March 2022. At the site in a crevice about 15ft down I found the compass and tachometer from the plane. I have pictures of the artifacts.

    Alright man, you need to charge people and give tours of the wichitas. You have totally opened up this range to me, and I thought I loved it before, but you make me want to explore it even more now.

    My family owns the land in front of Mt. Sheridan. Currently i’m stationed in kore. Thank you for these stories, my grandpa used to tell me all these and pull out the old treasure book and show me his picture in it. This makes me homesick but also thankful to call this place home.

    Interesting for sure. I've spent 50yrs.of hiking the Wichita Mountains. In the early 70s, you could camp at most areas of public use. 300 hundred hikes later I still find new places. An old man told me he'd share a treasure if I lowered him with ropes along a cliffside in a post oak creek tributary. To risky, I decided, but he was pretty convincing .Thanks

      @nativetunes1600 Sorry,I can't say that I'd remember as it was an odd encounter at the end of a long loop hike for me. I've hiked the canyon many times, but that section is for advanced technical climbers only. Ourey or something like that. He wrote a book or two about the area.

    Cool mini-doc on these caves. Some wild stories, as you mentioned probably embellished a bit through the old telephone game. Great editing in this one, Steve. I know that took some time. Great drone footage. Assume you and the boys go looking for some of these treasures?

    The cave near Quartz Mountain Lodge has been cleaned up. There is no longer than any graffiti! Apparently, it was close enough to drag up sand blasting tools. It is so much nicer!
