Plot Synopsis

In this one-hour reality series, Wayne Tuttle continues his 40-year search for the Lost Dutchman mine in Arizona's Superstition Mountains, but this time he's taking on partners in order to follow a new lead -- a rarely seen map with new clues that could potentially solve the mystery of America's most famous and deadliest buried treasure. The Superstition Mountains are an enigmatic land with a cursed history. Stretching across 160,000 acres of unforgiving Arizona desert, somewhere in this mountains lies lost gold valued at $200 million fortune, which also serves as the epicenter of a 500-year-old mystery. Long targeted by fortune hunters -- and the backdrop for dozens of mysterious and unexplained deaths -- its storied deadly treasure-trove of gold links back to the Conquistadors in the 1500s, but of all the legends to come out of these mountains, the most famous story is that of the Lost Dutchman Mine. The Dutchman, Jacob Waltz, was a prospector who came to the area in the 1860s. Legend says that Waltz discovered an untapped mine with enough gold to make millionaires out of 20 men. The Dutchman's legend claims that he killed four people to find the mine, and three more to keep it a secret -- a secret he took to his grave. On his deathbed in 1891, he confessed a series of cryptic riddles about the location of his treasure. Other clues revealed through the years have kept the legend alive, and have sent thousands in search for answers. Now, in LEGEND OF THE SUPERSTITION MOUNTAINS, each of the five team members brings an important piece to the table, but can they trust each other with so much on the line?
