Why wouldn't you think that large bear carving, staring at some point, is not related to what you're doing? :icon_scratch:

if you look close at that picture you will see a bear before you invert colors-- then a second bear after you invert. sorry dusty, i did'nt see him when you saw it. just me being a young squirt at this. two bears= double trouble?? two traps?

A Nubie's question. Why does this bear / cat have 2 ears on the same side of it's head?

If you look at the profile and use just the upper ear, you have a bear; if you look at it with just the lower ear, it looks like an Indian profile. :icon_scratch:

It's getting late, I must be "seeing" things. :laughing7:

I guess I would take a real close look at the marked areas. Some just seem confirmation/warning..others..possible carvings.

Looks quite dangerous under there and if it were me I would stongly consider it might be a false lead.

Might be a grave...for the unwary...



Ummm.. the horse head says go the way the turtle head is pointing. On the other hand you have something up on top in back there that may say something different!

do you not see the indian profile that has obviously been carved? the chief he posted is clearly man made, not a cloud image like the others that have been pointed out.

Hello all, To answer a few questions.

Hoss,
The sides of the triangle are all about 3 ft, it is solid granite (i think) and around 3-400 lbs. I tried to flip it and it didnt budge. I too want to see the bottom.

10claw,
I agree with the ridgeline idea, and the fact that the chipping is so fresh, and the missing pieces are not there makes me think it may have been intentionally removed. Also the stone is not sunk into the ground at all, it may have been recently moved, maybe thats where the chipping happened.

Shortstack,
Great markup on the stone. And The reason I dont think the large rock outcrop is related is only due to its location, about 15 miles away, and nothing has led me to it. I simply found it while fishing a few years ago and wanted to get a pic. Next time I will get across the river and get up close pics.

Kiddrock,
My cheifs noses do not make a 4, they look more like a beak. They both have a big smile, and squinted eyes. Cheif #1 is looking 40 degrees, N,E. cheif #2 is looking the exact opposite. Did you find any bows and arrows?

Here is alpha carving I found that started all this. I would love to know what you guys see, and what you think these mean.

OK, I'll give it a try.
I'm thinking this might be a story rock and not a treasure lead. That name in the upper right is written in script with a swirl underline. The indian head is too detailed to be an old marker. Perhaps the person signed his / her work in the script signature just above the profile. There's a cooking pot hanging on a frame over a fire with smoke billowing off to the right. The horse head has crossed sabres or rifles under it. The teepee has a detailed flap that looks similar to a cursive "A". There's an "A" shape or arrowhead or trail fork drawn on the left side. At the top is a place that looks like a hole that was filled in with some mixture of mastic or glue material.
I use a negative view, per Old Dog. :thumbsup:

In the pic of the indian cheif there is a date of 1915, can anyone tell me why the 5 is cocked the way it is. I have seen this a few times and don't know what it means, if anything. Thanks RockHopper2.

Jay and Rockhopper2,

The fact that the 5 is cocked and there is a dot after it leads me to believe it isn't a date.
It may be a reference to the book of Genisis. ie Book, chapter and verse.

Olddog and Rockhopper2,

I Have a closeup of the 1915, and the 5 is very strange, I will post it tomorrow. I think Olddog is correct that it isnt a date.

Old Dog, I saw the cocked 5 near other symbols on a map that I have. In the Bible it says that God willnot destroy by flood again. Jay's 5 has a dot , so maybe it means low area with water. Don't know just grabbing straws. RockHopper2
