Because I think there is two sides to the story and the true believers will never mention anything that doesn't fit their theories. In my opinion, this is unfair to anyone new to treasure hunting that might be interested in the alleged KGC treasures. Remember, I fell into this trap myself. At the time when I beleived the KGC hid mega buck depositories there wasn't anybody argueing the other side. This was good for me in that it forced me to do my own research once it became obvious something was wrong with the theory.
By giving my opinion based on my own research and work in the field, it gives someone else reading the forum more information than they had. They don't have to believe what I say but they can take boths sides of the argument and then research what they want. When I started treasure hunting Al Gore hadn't invented the internet yet. I'm just helping out!
Thanks for your last post and pics. While we have not found the metal inside of the trees that I have posted so far, the trees and rocks do point to buried metal objects. ( smaller ones only 4-6" deep, larger ones around 18" some 33' apart, some 66' apart and some a lot farther... seems to be precise angles) better surveying equipment is in the future.
I appreciate everything you have showed us and hope you continue. I have been on trails that I thought were Spanish/Jesuit etc. and something would show up to make me think KGC./Masonic or from that time period. If I only have Spanish/J s/s on a trail then that is what I consider that layout to be until shown otherwise .(by signs/symbols)
Oddrock, I won't be debating any who, hows or whys on this particular string because you requested that we not and that you were just interested in markers and signs.
I will say that I agree with a lot of your last post. There were other people here, long before Columbus, and some of those people were looking for things of value. It's only human nature that other "groups" that came along might try to find what anyone before them had found or hid.
I also agree with following trails. I work a trail as a specific type, outlaw, Spanish, (even KGC Hoss), until I find something that says otherwise. To me, it's all about interpreting the clues and getting to the end.
Thanks for sharing all the pic's and sides of the beliefs. Don't have any pic's to share yet, but have a
piece of property I will be investigating in the near future and will share what I find. Looks to have promise.
Thanks to everyone who has shared their pictures, and ideas on their meanings. I haven't seen anything close to these, however, I do enjoy reading about them.
Sorry you have left us or been on vacation? The 338 degrees you mentioned is what we have on one trail! Not sure if you thought I was choseing sides or what...will not bother you anymore as you did not respond to my private message.
oddrock Picture 053 seems to me to be a face looking up. I've seen one like it and found it meant to look all around as there are one or more things you need to see. Jim

Jim,
Thanks for the input. This one changes as you walk around it. The photo posted, to me has a man's face in the upper center. Three steps in either direction and it changes to an eagle or vulture head...there is more to see from this spot so your line of thinking does seem to fit.
After studying the pic for awhile it came to me as viewed by you...had to open my old mind and quit focasing on what I was used to seeing. I have turned it on it's side and marked. Is this what you were seeing?
