Treasure Marks/Signs - Diagnosed Here

[rangler]

ruby,
the hoyo in the first pic looks manufactured, however it makes an unknown shape..and with out any other
known or confirmed signs we have to let it go as - natural or pre Spanish perhaps pagan...

you might try photographing this from the other side where is might make a known shape.
be sure to stand "square" with the hoyo to reveal as much of the sky as possible so you are
not accidently cutting of some of the outline...
good luck
rangler

Ruby,
Welcome to the forum.

That first photo looks like some trail markers right out of Kenworthy's book. That second photo has a large "7" in the left, upper quadrant that tells you there is a good campsite in the immediate area and that large sleeping animal (and it's small offspring in the lower right quad) is telling you that it's also a good stopping point for your animals. A good animal trail continues on the the right. Follow it's nose. The trail is good for large and small animals.......at least for a ways.


EDIT: Ruby, this is the area that I was referring to in the first photo. All of those notches and angles mean something, including that large, squared notch just to the left of the "broken" pointer. There's also a large "A" on the face of the broken over pointer.
I'm editing again, with the red arrow pointing out the classic large notch that indicated this is the "doorway" monument to a treasure trail. You must study the rest of the notches and pointer points to determine how MANY trails are involved from this point. I just checked Kenworthy's book, Spanish Monuments & Trailmarkers to Treasure in the United States. This is demonstrated right off the bat with the FIRST example photo in the book, on page #14.

Thanks for the input! I definitely want to go out and take some more pictures and do more looking around!
What is your take on the rock with the triangle cut-out? For some reason to me it looks manufactured...if it is, am wondering if it is significant at all

[dsty]

Hello Ruby, just a thought that is my interperation, the face just below the lower left hand side of the rectangle seem to be a direction indicator, the arrow seems to be a tunnel or shaft, the backward 7 indicates church, the rock that is still balanced on top of the head seems to indicate the obects are still there ( has not been removed because the rock is still there much like a head thats been removed or knocked off. ). The upside down V thats part of the boulder and the square end on top of the same boulder may be a indicator that its a verical shaft 220 cm deep or a little over 7 foot deep. Just a guess on my part

In the pic with the "doorway and hoyo", try measuring about 5.85-6.10 miles to the next place you want to go. Measure it out on google earth by following anything that looks like an old trail, or where a trail would likely go. It won't be a straight-line measurement, it will be a foot trail measurement. So measure it off in smaller segments so it is more accurate. There may be something nearby this monument also, you just never know.

Thanks again for input. Need to go do a little more investigating! Here are a couple more pics of what looks like a pointing rock or head, need to get a better pic that is not so close. It can be seen from the owl-shaped rock but not in direct line of sight...will need to check out the angle a little closer next time. Not sure if it means anything? Thought it looked like markings on the one side so I included a close-up of that. It was about 10-12ft. up from where I was standing so the picture was taken looking up at it. THANKS!!
Also, what would the "A" on the hoyo rock mean? From what I know it can mean "to, go, or at" unless the crossbar is angled...is that correct? Thought it almost looked like another one in this close-up pic??

your doing good ruby, keep at it. your skill will get better each trip at spotting things. somethings will be true and some not. its there for you. thanks for posting the photos.

[dog, the treasure hunter]

nice photos chas, thanks for posting them. hope to see more of them. take care.

The A that I found near Ozark Ark was on a boulder about the size of a # 2 bathtub and the A was about 8 inches high and faced to the north, meaning = V upside down = something covered put together it said in a nearby land mark, something covered, it sat across a crevis about 8 foot deep and about 10 feet in the back part there was a knee high "old hand dug hole"

[cw0909]

ruby the next time your at site,could you get better img of these
one looks like a wall,the other a eye cather,pillar/standing rock,hoyo?

[billythekidder]

Dog here's a priest? with his hand on a cross/arrow pointing at the rocks

[dog, the treasure hunter]

thanks for the info. on that photo billythekidder. that photo is about 1000 yards right of the photo you marked up of the giant. thanks. i believe the cave or mine is lower on the hill. i do have a photo of the stones that are between the two photos,but iam not sure if i want to post that one. i dont want to give to much away. thanks for your input.

[billythekidder]

hope you find it! I agree don't give to much...

[Ruby]

Thanks cw0909! Will have to check out that hoyo. I noticed there are some other rock walls across a small valley from there that don't look natural. Trying to figure out exactly how they fit together.

I've never seen it before, but that doesn't mean much. Don't know if you where free styling or following a trail since you took multiple pictures from the general angle...but s/s are meant to catch your attention but they where created to be seen from specific point in the trail. Seems like you have some desert varish that has been removed to create contrast. Some of that varnish is being covered by grass/brush. I would like to think since they did not completely remove all the varnish it serves a purpose. S/s sometimes depend on surounding objects to create the whole picture. Everything rlse fails stand on it and look for unatural suspects. wish you the best, no need to thank me... cause i have a feeling you would want to since you always do weather the information is worthwile.

[dog, the treasure hunter]

thanks usernotfond,lol. your time and thoughts are worth it. whether i understand it or not. i must admit that most of this stuff is way over my head, still. whoever worked these stones and made these trails and pointers,are just kicking my butt. i got to the point where i just look to see if its been worked by man, photo it. and hope someday i can understand the signs. about all i picked up so far is what i think that some site are more important than others. i even doubt myself on that . i was free-styling,the trail was across the wash on my right heading up the canyon. it is the widest and worn trail i have seen so far. i was just to lazy to go down in it and cross till i got up towards the top. you are right,it isn't a shadow,its some kind of varnish stained work. but it caught my eye from a distance,it dose stand out.i dont think natural,too dark of a shade, color dosent fit with everything else in that canyon.

[dog, the treasure hunter]

is Attachment 640220this a sun sign cross,it is on the other side of the canyon,by the heavy worn trail,and is from the sunlight.

[dog, the treasure hunter]

is this a deer shadow? its on the hillside that the dark stained devil isAttachment 640224 on
