Geocache Description:

This is one of many Caches on the Apache Trail. This cache you will have a great view of the superstition mountains. And you can wonder if these myths are true. Here is a few facts or fiction tales so read on. ...One of my most favorite places in the world is the Superstition Mountains, where legends and superstitions abound! The Indians have a legend of the Little People or 'Tuar-Tums,' who live below the Salt River Valley, or Valley of the Sun.Sources have claimed that 'little men' that live within the mountain have been seen on top of ridges in the Superstitions , as if they were guarding something (an entrance to an underground system perhaps?) There are scores of crevices, caves and openings in the Sups. Many treasure hunters believe the Cocopah Indians once knew of a subterranean network of caves and tunnels beneath the mountains. Geronimo was reported seen stepping into rock walls and disappearing without a trace, only to be seen days later in New Mexico. The Apaches have a legend that their remote ancestors came from a large island in the eastern sea where there were great buildings and ports for ships. The Fire Dragon arose, and their ancestors had to flee to mountains far away to the south. Later they were forced to take refuge in immense and ancient tunnels of which they wandered for years. Is this where Geronimo's knowledge came from on the tunnel system of the superstitions?
