Mystery of Juan Carlos gold and vanished workers in San Luis Valley
A long tale recounts Juan Carlos the Spaniard who traveled with peons and a gold dust fortune. He vanished each May and returned in October for three years, built adobe houses near San Luis lakes in 1868, paid workers with gold dust, and two workers vanished after being kept for secret labor. The Mexican families suspect foul play as the two men never returned.
