How far...
Consider the Mississippi River and all of its navigable tributaries rivers like our
modern Interstate Highway system! and you will know reach of the Spanish.

As for the face you photographed, I see it of course, however I dont see any
confirmation that this is a verified monument. It would help you to save time
and a false trail, if you take more pics, at the proper time, high noon or so...
with you back to the sun...and look for possible confirmation marks, hoyos,
numbers, letters, shadows that contain symbols ect...

good luck on your search, be happy to look at more pics

we have a "kings road" that started of at st augustine in 1763 when the english took over florida from spain -- there were no decent "roads" -- spain cared little for florida;'s i nteroir and only really cared about floridas sea port towns to protect it shipping interest *

the engliush noting how easily they had over ran the northeast florida areas in earlier wars --knew they needed to link the georgia area with st augustine and southern florida .--- thus by royal decree --- a very long plank road was built that would allow fairly rapid trransit of military men and supplies ---of course this greatly adided trade as well and it became a major trade route it was laid out along a old indain trade route trail -- it was called --the king's hiway

having roads or good trails to assist in the moving about of troops was always very important to the british

Another poster ,Andy_WV, posted pics of similar trail markers here in WV over a year ago .
I've had no recent contact with him and have no Idea whether he has followed them or not .

That profile looks like the actor Burgess Meridith when he played The Penguin in that Batman movie years ago. This is not meant as a joke. It's just I've never seen any Spanish rock carvings or monuments that looked so life-like.

In answer to the original post question. I have found references to 3 different El Cameno Royals. The one running up through California; the "lost" one through New Mexico and Arizona and the one coming up through Texas, through Louisiana, ending at New Orleans.
