I wonder if all of the original symbols actually made it to the copies? Guess we shall never know.
A true stoner. What is your opinion that the stones were made by Travis for a TV show he was setting up.

Hal in vid 7 Joe says @ about 6:52, he was 12/13 when TT passed in 1961
so that makes Joe about 67/68, so i think he is Joe sr.
A absolute not. But what's this RG stuff did he post something somewhere or what.
Travis didn't make them your being played by the family, Ask Gollum he'll tell ya.

there was also someone else there with frank and ryan...he agrees with frank ..travis carved those stonesBuddy,
I will say that Janie Tumlinson told me that her dad "was in no way part of any hoax". Only problem with that was that she was only about 10 years old at the time.
You have to take into account what Frank says, because he was there, and says that Travis had a stone carving factory set up in Texas. If I knew Frank to be a BS'er, I wouldnt put a lot into what he says, but he is not, so I do.

It appears that the stones were meant to stack together like a sandwich, then the group would look like one large stone, perhaps similer to those found in altars or cemetaries, there is a story, as I recall, about a set of stones being discovered in a mission when it was being restored and while on route, they were stolen.My question to anyone who cares to answer. If TT carved the stones, why the pockmarked back of the lower trail map? Exactly what purpose does that serve?
As I remember, it was mitchell who told the story of how the stones were found, and that story does not hold water for me, test it.I know Frank in not a BSer, but he is capable of being wrong like anyone else. It makes no difference how many stones Travis carved, or how many maps he may have made. I tend to believe he found the PSM's like he stated in his own words.
A few years ago on a debate here about which stone he found first, I stated that it could be no other stone than the P/H stone. This was because it is the stone that tells you it is one of four stones, and to look for the others in the same hole. I said it had to have being buried edgewise with "Miguel" visible. This is what got Travis attention, and it turns out that I was right. I also know in which position the stone was buried.
The stones that he did carve, show that he was incapable of having created the PSM's, and the hole where the PSM's came out of also tells me it was impossible for him to have buried them so precisely.
All this without even going into what's on the PSM's.
well...if you guys want to waste decades of your life following those silly stone maps that is certainly your choice....not me..i have better things to doAs I remember, it was mitchell who told the story of how the stones were found, and that story does not hold water for me, test it.
eight paces is about 30 feet or so, a 12 degree difference in direction will only produce an offset of about 1 1/2 feet.
seems like a very small difference between locations to have been a deliberate hidding tactic.
