I have a small amount of history on the Hidden Splendor Mine located on my Knotted Rope webpage.

Anyhoo..... I recieved this email and thought I would share it with you. It's pretty interesting if you enjoy knowing the history of this stuff. Sorry about the all caps. This is how it was sent to me.

WE LIVED IN THE MUDDY RIVER FOR 3 YEARS, OUR DAD BUD CAIRNS WORKED THE HIDDEN SPLENDOR MINES AS A MECHANIC, AND MY SISTERS HUSBAND ELMER WILLIAMS(SPARKY) THE MINES ELECTRICIAN FOR PECK /PICK? THERE WAS EIGHT OF US KIDS AND THEY USED TO FLY IN A SCHOOL TEACHER EVERY MONDAY FOR US KID AND FLY HER BACK TO LOA, UTAH ON FRI. HER NAKE WAS BERYL OKERLUND AND THERE WAS A COOK AT THE MAIN CAMP BY THE NAME OF ANGIE. THIS WAS 1952/53/54. THERE WAS AN OLD INDIAN THERE WHO WORE LOTS OF TURQUOISE AND SILVER JEWELERY. AND CAUGHT WILD HORSES IN SNARES. I WAS 13 AND MY BROTHER 12, AND WE HAD SOME WILD EXPERIENCES THERE. RIDING 12 BY 4 PLANKS DOWN THE RIVER WHEN EVER THERE WAS A FLASH FLOOD. I WILL NEVER FORGET MY YEARS AT THE MUDDY RIVER
