Alvord's one-time partner, Joe Clews searched Alvord's "striped butte" for another eighteen years. Clews believed that the site was located at a spot called "Mule Spring", which, itself, is located in Mule Canyon. Mule Canyon, in turn, is located in the Alvord Mountains (as the range is known today.) The problem with most desert springs, is that they only run after heavy rain.
Consequently, Clews never found Alvord's "striped butte", and the site became yet another Lost Mine.
