Nana40 -- This is the crazy one ---- What's on the other side of the X rock. Check out all the areas I have marked. the big one to the left just might be a turtle. The pointed one on the right might be a snake. Don't know about the one behind the X Rock?? NOw her's where I am crazy see the big leaf, look at the little rock under it, it's squared. Now since this is a picture that leaf looks twice as big and not dried up like the rest. hmmm the lines in it stand out pretty good. I know I'll catch some $%%^^&^%, but you never know. Also, check the rock at bottom of picture, I am sure you have more signs/symbols than just the X/ Cross.
Here's your pic painted

do the rocks around the cross rock go all the way around or is it just the ones in the picture ? on the tilted cross i would try going in the direction of the top of the cross unless one of the other lines was much longer than it should be...any other marks on the rock or the ones around it ? i think this is the best you have posted yet , and does look quite promising..............gldhntr

JakePhelps --- I don't have my notes in front of me. Can't remember where they are. I have all the signs and symbols from three different books in to one. I f I remember "X" may or may not be the spot. If one arm is longer on and "X" then you follow it. It's usually a sign letting you know your on the right path.
If I am completely off someone let us Know. in the mean time I need to find my book !!!!!!

if it is a cross instead of a X,, usually means a trail marker, most often a slight change in direction,,, most often follow in direction of longest line,, long arm might point to treasure, mine, or next symbol,,,,,,, sometimes follow direction of top.......if an " X " = on line to mine or treasure, or here this place, or to break or divide, or change in course, or landmark, or 10.......if it looks like a " + " then it means change in course or direction change............ any other symbols nearby might add new meaning also,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Kenworthy's book says __" X's and Crosses do not need to be verified. "X's are only found along the "IN" trail and are to be pasted on the left (the trail goes to the left of the X. You have to face them head on to be certain which it is.
I found my book and GLDHNTR is correct. My books say "This is the place or trail or line to treasure.

That's way you need to look for more signs to make sure you not going on a wild goose chase.
In one of my other post I showed a turtles head under a big rock.
Almost under to nose is a square type (flat) rock with and "X" on it, BUT it has a curve attached to it. And my book says dig here.

heres one for you jacko,,,,,,i found a 2 by 3 ft flat rectangular rock,,,on it is a X, both lines being about 8-9 inches long.....directly beside this rock is a circle of stacked rocks, open in the middle, the circle is about 2 1/2 ft around and 10 inches high.... and it incorporates the X rock into it, using the X rock for one side of the circle...........i would post a pic or two but evidently my brain isn't big enough............gldhntr

GLDHNTR---- I don't have it written in my little black book I carry with me, but a circle of rocks around a tree, treasure buried below. I have a picture similar to what you are talking about but, haven't looked at it in months, I'll try to find it. How is the "X" incorporated in the circle??? Is it in the center, part of the stack, on top??

Jacko ----- I go and find the picture

jacko your circle of rocks looks like a compass...........the X rock at my site is on a rock about 2 by 3 ft and 1 1/2 ft high,,,,this rock is used to make up about 1/4 of the circle of rocks, which are all flat rocks about 4 by 10 inches or close to that,,,,,,these are stacked so that the top of the circle is flat and about 10 inches high except for the X rock which is about 1 1/2 ft high.....trying to describe it if you took the rocks and made a big C and then put the large X rock over the opening of the C to make a circle............good luck nana,,,,the way your rock looks it looks like it comes out of the ground and kind of points off in one direction, you also might consider this,,but before i went too far from the rock{s} i would definantly check all of them for more symbols........gldhntr

Gldhntr -- I think your right and the pointer is in the center pointing down to the right.

Now From what you are saying it something like this CX is that correct??? only the C touches the X at two points. I trie to send a picture but, our new Dell ahs XP and the photosuite and roxio aren't compatable so, I have to up grade both. No time now.

Jacko Gldhntr--- Have you ever been to AZ???
