As the title suggests, I'm very interested in searching based on some legends in the Dallas area. The two main ones I have in mind now are gold / cache related - one is at California Crossing (Irving, technically), and the other is just on the Dallas/Tarrant County border, just west of Cedar Hill near Joe Poole Lake. The information I have for both of these sites basically sounds like it's going to take a lot of time and scouting before any real progress might be made. I'm already working with another cool person on a different North Texas opportunity, and if they're interested in these then I might have at least one other person, able bodied and smart, available to join in too.
Also, I'm genuinely interested in following trails - Indian, Jesuit, Spanish, KGC - you name it, there's signs of this stuff everywhere. I've been focusing on streams / creeks / rivers, and have been getting better at spotting 'manipulated' trees. It's not really that difficult, but I'm still very new at it, but physically fit enough and rough enough to be willing to hike quite a bit during a weekend morning. Not allergic to poison ivy or poison oak comes in handy. While I've found trees all around the area, I'm noticing a lot cues off of the Trinity River (hence the California Crossing legend), and for instance, around Bachman Creek south of Love Field, I've been able to find a series of hoot-owl trees...at least they look like them to me, so if anybody could join in, or be a resource for me to bounce photos off of from time to time, I'm a fair dealer and would appreciate any getting ahead possible.
I'm planning on going at the Dallas stuff myself when I can, so even if nobody's interested, I'll still try to keep some action going in the Texas area of this forum. Thanks to all and feel free to post here or PM as you're able. Happy Hunting!
