A GUIDE TO VAULT TREASURE HUNTING (Condensed)

I thought this was the shaft sign when I first came across it...

Which iḿ pretty sure it is... but when looking around... i found the next one 20 feet away...

Quick question, what did you find in the caches. I've read all of your article, but never learned what was in them. Did I miss it? Thanks for your time.

Hello frankaxlerod and welcome to the thread. Other people have asked the same question but you need to understand that if someone EVER finds something buried of value, especially of monetary value like gold, silver, or artifacts of any kind; you'd be a fool to disclose it on the internet and on a public forum. I am not saying that Sandy1 has or hasn't found such things but that is something we will never know AND FOR GOOD REASON.

I am sure there are many t-net members and guests that have found REAL TREASURE worth a fortune but NONE of them will ever let us know about it because "loose lips sink ships."

I think the best thing we can do is be thankful that someone like Sandy1 stepped up as a beacon of light to treasure hunters everywhere and shared what he believes to be the KEY to vault treasure hunting and we should put his method to the test.....

I have and all I can say is that everything he taught is exactly the way I am finding it to be in the field and many others (whether they post of it or not) have also come to the same conclusion.

The only difference with me is that I have not begun digging anything because of the fact that there are SO MANY crisscross spots in some of the areas I am working and I am trying to figure out as much info as I can by taking compass bearings and figuring out the layouts of the sites and also want to use electronic equipment to confirm there is something at the crisscross spots because I would not want to dig an empty hole and then come back and say that this method didn't work for me.

We have to remember that there may or may not be treasure at the crisscross spot but there will be a rock map or pointer of some sort (unless sentinels got at it already) that tell you where the treasure is at maximum of 30 feet from this crisscross spot per Sandy1's info.

Metal detectors might not be able to pick it up depending on how deep it is and that is also a PROBLEM if the treasure isn't at the crisscross spot and there also happens to be no map or rock pointer because it's been removed previously by sentinels.

Sandy1 has also got a good solution using a camera to see if the treasures are still on those hills.

The questions I would ask Sandy1 are these: Out of all the crisscross spots you have come across and actually dug, how many of them had a rock map or pointer that led you to a different and final dig spot? Lets say you dug ten crisscross spots.... how many out of those ten led you to a different spot with a rock map or poiner and how many of them were actually the final dig spot??

Sandy, please feel free to answer these questions for us if you'd like.

Please excuse me. The article was long, and as read it, I guess I was sure there was an ending. I am new to all the stories and lore. So I'm taking in a lot of new information a little too fast. I understand the case for anonymity, and am not trying to step on toes.
 

No need to apologize.... You were just curious (most of us are) and I completely understand as most of us were newbies at one point and I will say that I was very naive when I first started treasure hunting and made a few mistakes here and there but the good thing is we learn from those mistakes and move on.
 

Tinhorn, in your #610 post it looks like the shaft sign is in the lower left corner of the photo and an A frame behind it. May be another A frame 30ft or so behind that one. Looks like the lines are going down hill. Just a thought and only worth a nickel. Rocky

I recall comments on that, but don't know if it was edited.
Sounds like a loaded sentinel question, more than newbie...
Just a thought, what would you comfortably tell?

Rockhopper,
You are right, the A frame is pointing down hill. And I will check the Boulder behind it in the distance. But I'm pretty sure the other pic is also a shaft sign, but may not be used in the alignment.... or are there two?
 

I'm finding the same thing on this side of the state. Some are large, some are small. Not all are connected with the shaft symbol though. Is that consistent with what you are running across?
 

I've found five layouts so far and four have a shaft sign but I may be missing that one. Takes several days to cut brush and briars, can't see 20ft if through these valleys. Still working on the first one. Rocky

A lot of time that brush is part of it. Is there away to get above the brush and look at it? Just a thought.

Maybe our friend sandy1 is off on a trip
or vacation, exploring & looking for the
lost ghost town a old timer told him was
found/lost location in desert story about.

Hope all is well with you sandy, and you're
having a great time, whatever you're doing.
This must be the ideal time of year to go out
exploring in the desert areas around your neck
of the country, where the Diamondbacks are in
their dens and holes sleeping in this cool season?

I've found diamondbacks sunning on a 43° day. So don't let temperature thing fool you. I was shocked to see it. I made it go back in its hole moved slower but still managed to strike once.

creeping all around, striking up in the snow country... :laughing7:

Aw, heck....really?? I have to wait months for it to get cold enough to go out into the mountains again, and now you are telling me that it's not even safe in the low 40 degrees???
 

Well, there a difference depending on where you are. It can be freezing at night and 70 in the daytime here. Next month we have the rattlesnake rodeo here. So there catching them regularly around here. They do release the ones turned in. They also eat at lot of farmed raised ones. I use to catch a lot of them when I was younger. I have a lot of respect for them as long as they are not around my house. Lost two dogs over the years. Last year two that I have now got bite twice. Their heads got as big as a basketball. A couple days later they were fine.
