The Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine (also known by similar names) is, according to legend, a rich gold mine hidden in the southwestern United States. The location is generally believed to be in the Superstition Mountains, near Apache Junction, east of Phoenix, Arizona. There have been many stories about how to find the mine, and each year people search for the mine. Some have died on the search. This documentary explores one treasure hunter's quest for the gold. Dick Holmes, born in the heart of Arizona's Gold Rush era, embodies the spirit of the Wild West. From his youth fighting Apache warriors to his relentless pursuit of the Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine, Holmes epitomizes grit and determination in the face of danger, greed, and the allure of hidden treasure.
