This article was originally written for a paranormal magazine called The Paranormal Journal, it became known as The Underground Files covering ghosts, ufos, cryptozoology, and government conspiracies amongst others. I no longer write for the magazine and it is no longer in existence. The San Luis Valley And Lost Treasures Gold. A prospector's dream and ultimate find. There is gold in them hills of the San Luis Valley. Many reports of UFOs too – but even more surprising, treasures have been found, it is stated, and recorded, beneath a hovering UFO or more over time. UFO watchers have taken to using pick and shovel alongside their trusty camera. A rumour it is but the divining method not as yet been proven, though one gold prospector swore that he would wait by a spot at the Blanca Peak massif for sightings of fiery red balls in the sky. When they had landed, in the morning, using the circular burn mark on the ground, he would dig finding astray-sized solid gold disks. In the mid-80s, he had found enough gold to purchase a large farm holding in the mid-west, however, he was shot dead under Blanca, the circumstances mysterious. Most of the stories are connected to the Spanish conquistadors exploration of the southern Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Rio Grande Valley, 16th century, considered to be the earliest incursion into the American Southwest by Europeans. The Spanish quickly reaped the northern reaches territory. The native Pueblo and Plains people welcomed the strangers, though they soon realised the brutal threat of their presence, dressed in armour and riding horses, they raped their land of precious metals; the consequential riches to be found there. It is said a Spanish general told an Aztec chief, “The Spaniards have a disease of the heart for which gold is the specific remedy.” Much of the hording of gold over the first 200 years of exploration is left unrecorded, but clandestine missions were no doubt undertaken by the hungry Spanish for wealth of such treasure. Over the years, discovery in the valley, of Spanish cannon barrels, conquistador helmets, arrastas, smelters, enigmatic carvings like the Maltese Cross at the mouth of the Upper Spanish Caves, fueled legends of lost Spanish Treasure. The greater San Luis Valley region, the oldest settled area in Colorado, northern New Mexico, claims dozens of Spanish treasure legends, lost mines, counting these with many lost robbery hauls over the years, you must achieve a potential for finds greater than any other specific location in the southwest. Strangely, to top this of the area, it seems the Spanish were reporting lights in the sky as early as the 1500s, and stated hearing sounds that originated from the ground in Blanca Peak, Sangre de Cristos.
