Guadalupe Canyon? Same mountain range, though
-
I'd love to go sometime. Maybe his marker is in Hunt Canyon? A quick Google search says Frank Robson, part of a posse pursuing the High Five Gang, was killed and buried in Skeleton Canyon near the Devils Kitchen 12Aug1891. Judson White was found robbed, murdered and decomposing there 4Nov1889. Between 1879 and 1889 there's another 15 murders including two massacres. Keep in mind it was named Skeleton Canyon prior to the massacres due to all the bones left by smuggling operations. With the nearest civilization in the late 1800s being 20 miles or more, how far you want to transport a bloated rotting corpse? A quick burial often consisted of the remains tossed in a rocky crag.

Sorry, it's no longer available.

Last question, sir; where did you learn the headstone was moved? I read that also on a Facebook group last week.
-
Where were you when you came across the headstone?
-
Been past this exact spot many times. Very interesting history all throughout these mountains. That stone was actually moved sometime later from its original spot by woodcutters many decades ago. Was coming back to camp late one night on the quad and almost hit a bear as it ran right in front of me. Crapped my pants that night! I don't think anyone for certain knows where he died, where he's buried. There's a plausible theory that his death at the hands of Apaches was just a rouse and he escaped to TX. Being a fugitive wanted for murder surely there was a price on his head, dead or alive.

Thanks. Here's another good read on Swing Hunt. Took a big pair to cross the Clanton Gang... https://truewestmagazine.com/article/zwing-hunt/

When my class graduated from the USAF NCO school a banquet was held and MSgt Benavidez was the guest lecturer and presented us our graduation diplomas and ribbons.

Please post when you do, eager to see the footage.

That's beautiful. Wish there was a coin beside it for comparison. In the shape of a Clovis point. How long is it? I've been told I can find points anywhere. Yesterday I found this broken obsidian point in my driveway. Must have brought it in from a neighboring wash when I was putting gravel down.

I own an old 7.3L that up till recently ran like a raped ape. Former owner reprogrammed it and didn't properly waterproof it's location when reinstalling, which incidentally makes no sense (behind drivers fender). So it got wet, shorted out and I've searched everywhere for one. Warning: Flagship1 claimed to have one but after payment, never forwarded one. Our bank turned the case over to the NYAG. Has anyone on here used a company to have an old ECM rebuilt? The reviews for these companies are horrible. Any good recommendations?

No wonder Tater and Teddy hate you, Mike Most believe those walls and Corrales are from sheep herders.

Installed and purring like a kitten! I highly recommended G7 for testing and rebuilding modules.

Beautiful. Be careful. Lots of ruins on Table Mesa Rd and just up the Agua Fria. White Mesa, North Fort and South Fort.

If this has serial numbers can you send them to me please.

I'll be building a pergola too, nice. I'll be getting some of those melon seeds When I lived in the 4 corners, Anasazi beans were abundant, they're the best but not as common down here.

If I haven't tossed last year's guide packet.

U can so long as the barrel length doesn't exceed 4"
