Description: Tells of Doc Noss--part-adventurer, part-conman--who supposedly discovered fabulous treasure inside the caverns of New Mexico's Victorio Peak in 1937, and then dynamited the tunnel to hide the treasure from other treasure hunters. Decades later his grandson decided to find that treasure.
