CDS, you missed the 103 degree info, here is the entire thing again
I wanted to ad that 103 can also be a single line and can be both distances as well as degrees and also can be any combination such as 103 130 301 which all means the same thing 13

The Number 13
One of the best numbers in a degree turn (chain trail) off of an alignment line turning at a crisscross spot is a 103 degree turn which is 77 degrees the opposite way.
For instance if you have a 69 degree line and you turn 77 degrees you turn onto a 146 degree line which is really a 103 degree turn when you look at it the opposite way which is actually considered the number 13 minus the 0, but also it is 13 degrees off the East/West line
The Best way to look at it is like a T with a left tilted top off 13 degrees from the base line, so following the leg going up to the tilted top then if you go left you would have a 77 inner degree change if you go right you would have a 103 inner degree change

We are getting into some very Important information at this point. (stuff from my top secret guide)

The Shaft Sign
The shaft sign as I have shown usually is one of the major markers to a cache, I have always stressed that the sides of the shaft sign MUST be parallel in order to be a shaft sign, there is a very good reason for this,
The shaft sign represents a parallel line at the same exact degrees as the line that is going from the shaft sign to the crisscross spot just offset from the shaft sign to the crisscross spot by anywhere from 5 feet up to 12 feet and possible more.
What this parallel line does is it goes directly to the entrance of the vault
The way this works is you find the shaft sign then the crisscross spot and then the change of degrees and distance from the crisscross spot to the entrance then if you reverse engineer it the parallel line will be the distance apart that the line is from the crisscross spot and the entrance of the vault.
Again without the map this can be difficult however at some sites you will find that they put up a boulder that you can use that is near the shaft sign on the parallel line.
So, as an example, the shaft sign goes 5 degrees off of South 185 degrees to the crisscross spot then you get to the crisscross spot and turn to 117 degrees on the compass (3x39s) at 13 feet (to the entrance) now at that spot you look 5 degrees (opposite of the line you came up from the shaft sign) and you may very well find a large rock or something on the 5 degree line parallel with the shaft sign line you just came up. at about 12 feet apart between the two parallel lines in this case due to the 117 line not being a 90 degree turn to the 185 degree line you came up so you loose a foot (from the 13 feet) between the two parallel 5 degree lines.
These are not made up lines they are real degree lines and distances that I have found in the field.
Hope this helps guys.
Again, this is information that I have in my top secret guide that I am still working on.

sandy1,
Will keep studying this, & thanks for all of your focus & clarity.
