There is something I must mention about this Heart Trail Marker
And that is, this marker is telling us, a Royal Trail is coming up
But we are following a Hoyo Trail?

Well that is because there is a junction coming up
At this junction we can get back on the main Royal Trail
Or we can continue to follow the Hoyo Trail Markers
I guess this is were a Map would really come in handy

OK, rest period is over, let move on down the trail
So, as we start to move on from the Royal Heart Marker
We will follow the direction that the left lobe points out


To Be Continued…

Along the Royal Trail with Lost Horse

Let’s continue on our Journey
In this section, on the Map we will start at the Royal Heart Marker
And we will be hiking our way to the junction Area - (the vista point on the map)
We will stop and take a quick look and then move on

And when we get to the last Hoyo Marker on our map
I would like to stop and reflect on some of the data
That we have collected on the Hoyo during our Journey
Don’t worry I will keep it simple as promised

When we are done I hope some of this makes sense
And maybe in the future you will be documenting your own trails
The more people who do this, will be contributing their efforts
To weed out what was Standard Practice in making these Trail Markers
Versus what is just today’s word of mouth

Take note:
I am no expert
And my perspective and Interpretations are only my view of things
And so if you would like, come and let me entertain you
As we travel to our final destination, the Omega Marker

Journey along the Royal Trail

The Omega Trail Continued

The Hoyo Trail
Well, I have been walking for a while, and the walk was relatively easy
And the weather was mildly warm with a morning cool breeze
Eventually I start to crest the top of this ridge and worked my way around the hill top
I got to the area of the junction, and at this point I had to make a decision
I have two very large Monuments to follow

To the right in the far distance, I have the Large Royal Lion silhouette.
And to the left I have this Large Monument that looks like a man
I don’t want to get back on the Royal Trail so…
Instead, I turn to the left and head towards the Large Man Monument

I want to stay on the trail that leads to the Mining Area
Also you must remember, on the way in
The Gateway Marker gave us a heads up
On the location of our destination the Omega
And as you know, we must get on the other side of this Sentinel

So as I headed towards the Large Sentinel Monument,
I find myself on the slops of this Hill Top, the hike is relatively easy

When I stop to get a closer look, I can see a Shadow Snake under the man’s beard
And I noticed that the snake is pointing out the way
The reason I put my trust into this marker is because
It’s in Shadow form, and it is up High to be seen
There are other markers not shown, also pointing the way
And, we have the confidences that the Omega is on the other side of this Large Sentinel

I love Shadow Markers because they are Secret

So I turn and headed in the direction that the Snake was pointing
And made my way around the base of this Large Sentinel
It starts to tower over me, and so I walk quietly
Hoping he will not see me as I pass him by

As I travel further in, working my way around the perimeter of this slope hill top
From a distant I can start to see the location of our last Hoyo
The Sun Light Eye Catcher catches my eye, so I excitedly walk towards it

Observation:
Here we have another Hoyo, which we know shows direction from the data we collected
The Data shows that these Hoyo Trail Markers are inward Trails
And if you look at the map, I think it is self evident
That they were created, to show us the way to the Omega

Starting with the Pack Mule Marker/ the Two Hoyos
We can see that every other one is a Hoyo Trail Marker
Was this a standard practice to mix it up a bit, so to make the trail not so obvious?
Or again, could it just be that we are at the mercy of the Code Maker (artist?)


Here is the view as I walked up to it, following it inward
We will call this the Front Side

As I walk around the Hoyo, I started to get closer towards the back side
Some markers started to show up; there was one that got me really excited
Because it’s our first Gold Symbol (Marker), confirmed with the Heart Marker

I find it interesting that the Gold Symbol finally shows up only on
The very last inward Hoyo Trail Marker – and was created low to the ground
Was this also a standard practice?


Pay attention to the engineering and design – each one is unique

This is really an interesting marker because of its design
It doesn’t look like much – but then it’s not suppose to
It was made to blend in with its environment to stay secret

The No. 3, or the Lobes of the Heart, was made to create the Shadow
And the area where the patina was rubbed away, creating a Highlighted Area

Shadow and Highlight working together
In shadow we have the No. 3 marker - meaning Gold
And in Highlight the Heart Marker = what does your heart desire?
Together they give us Conformation of Gold

As we move on from the Hoyo, I walked the trail along the slope
Until I got to the other side of the Hill Top – we have made it passed the Large Sentinel

Once I crested over the Hill Top, The other side started to slope down to a steep
But small canyon down below
What I find interesting is the size, and that it stands on the down side of this ridge, alone

I can now start to see our Final Destination the Omega Marker

Lost Horse, again what an amazing and outstanding walk through!! Thank you.


One final thing, would you mind giving us your take on the Omega marker?
 

Lost Horse, Thank you for sharing.

I did not not even have to put my hat on backwards, and my tongue to the side to understand.

Please continue at your convenience. :icon_thumright:
