Into the Heart of the Superstitions

 

My nephew Rich, his girl friend Jessica and I went for a hike to Weavers needle.  Weaver’s Needle, as I’m sure you all know, is prominent in most stories about the Lost Dutchman Mine.  Supposedly the tip of the shadow of Weaver’s Needle falls on the mine at 4:00.  I don’t know if that is Arizona standard or day light savings time. 8000 people a year look for the mine, but we thought we had an advantage  since we had previously bought a map at a tourist shop. We didn’t find any gold, but it was a great hike that wound through blind canyons to an overlook of Weaver’s Needle.  Perhaps next time.
