Merry Christmas guys !

Please note that that circle with a small circle indicates the area only and not the target.
you will find more signs when you reach that point but that point will be the omega area,
and you will be within reach of the goal!

Javaone,
Looking back over the post I wondered if there may be a "S" and a "7" on this rock?
That would be go south 7 places.

I took the liberty of enlarging your photo.

when you find a good carved heart such as this,
The way to figure out where it points is to treat the lobes as if they are a bow.
picture the point of the heart as the drawn string.
Place an imaginary arrow in the set up and follow the arrow's flight.

Was there anything above this?

Very interesting pic heartquest and what an awesome heart. If it were me, I would be looking for the trail up that waterfall on your left as you look at the pic.

To me there are faces, figures and lines on the heart and above the heart that would make me think I might want to go up and to the left a short or long distance.

To me the strong diagonal lines on the heart would be first indicator. Now..I am no expert. Remember that.

This is not to negate what OD said but in addition to it.

How exciting :)) Enjoy the journey!

oh...ps... I wonder if you will find a rock triangle around..rocks placed in a triangle.

Like this one...
Neat triangle. Hearts are cool also. Especially when triangles follow. Heartquest, very nice heart. Just follow it the way OD showed. The only other thing I see of interest, at the moment, will be the hashes on the right side. If those were man-made, they could give the distance to another sign.

PS. They might also indicate to look to the left when following ;)

heartquest,
here is my rendition of what is hidden in the marker...
heartrocksmer marker.jpg

I agree with OD for the most part..defiantly the heart is pointing
both to the "L" and up higher-perhaps Roman Numeral for 50 -
go 50 units of measure along this line, varas, yards, chains, cordells ect
I would take a compass bearing on the arrow, just to see what it says..
it might be 50 degrees..

hope this helps in your adventure

here's a satelite shot from overhead. found this while researching a story from native Americans of ships coming up the rivers.
some of the symbols are clearly visible. what gets me is the overall view,it looks like a saint holding the staff of knowledge. have a look and see what you can find.there are quite a few symbols here. and notice the bank of the river on the bend, it's against the laws of nature for the bank to erode perfectly strait on a bend.not to mention what appears to be a Rams head at the port.
I'm going soon to have an up close look at this one. Good Hunting everyone

Merry Christmas Rick and welcome to Treasure net.
I agree the mound system looks very man made.
What part of the country is this generally speaking?
In the midwest The mound builders had huge systems that were above the floodplane that they occupied.
They were responsible for most of the mound systems that are found in and around the major rivers.

Most of these peoples disappeared with the early influx of the white man, because they were most susceptible to the disease that came with him, when the survivors were very few either died out or were blended into other tribes.

Hope this makes sense.

I found the mound after studying a journal that was taken from the body of a slain spainiard by one of my native ancesters and passed down through several generations.I was the only one interested enough to translate it, and this is where it led me to. it didn't say what was here or why they came. Havana records state the fleet was caught carrying gold contraband. as authorities were summoned the fleet cut away from the port and went to full canvas out of the harbour. also states they were drawing too heavy to make ocean passage. The journal states they were chased up river by french warships. but being too heavy for safe passage back to Spain,I think they planned to travel up river pursued or not. whatever it is,it was already known of at the time the fleet came up river.
not sure if the cargo is there or not, but in a few weeks we'll go have a look and see what we can see..
we also find a few interesting markers along the rivers close to home. not to mention the steamboats that went down in the rivers carrying payrolls. a few pics from a Christmas eve outing, and a couple coins found along the banks of the ohio back in sept. the inscription on the rock didn't show very well in the pics,but we'll be back there tommorrow to get a bit more detail..
Good river hunting and Happy Holidays..
