Their trail leads you to a canyon known as Pandora’s Box, named for the legendary Spanish Conquistador, Juan Gomez Gonzales Guadalupe Maximillian de Pandora. According to legend this is the site where Pandora buried a massive treasure plundered from local indian tribes, then not so successfully fended off a thousand indian squaws who came to reclaim their rightful belongings, in the “Thousand Squaws War”.
