Description

Since the dawn of time, mankind has coveted shiny pieces of metal. Entire lives have been wasted while acquiring one of the shiniest of all metals: Gold.

The depths of human depravity and persistence knows no bounds in the search of it. Greed is a hell of a drug, and can cloud the judgment of otherwise intelligent, morally-upstanding people.

Join Kyle and Nate as they travel to the beautiful deserts of New Mexico in search of one of North America's most valuable lost treasures: Leon Trabuco's long-lost 16 ton cache of gold.

Is it still out there buried in the desert, just waiting to be discovered by someone (YOU)? or will it lay there for the next 5 billion years until the Earth inevitably gets swallowed up by the Sun when it goes supernova?
