Dee Wilson, a long time intermountain prospector, arrived in Caliente with two sacks of ore from a snow white quartz ledge in Death Valley. He endured 150 miles of desert travel starting last June and a week without water after a sandalstorm nearly blinded him. Recovered in a camp near Death Valley, Wilson’s lips bled and tongue swelled as rescuers forced water between his teeth. Prospectors plan to relocate the ledge they believe holds rich ore.
