Does anyone know the meaning of a squirrel when it used as a treasure sign?
Thanks, Baker

Keep it in context. It's a game of charades. You know most of what you need to know. Pictures might reveal more information or entice one to help.

Edit: What makes you believe there is/was treasure associate with your squirrel?

 

[L.C. BAKER]

It is part of a proven K.G.C. trail that we are working over right now. I have seen animal signs explained in books but never a squirrel. This squirrel is carved into a tree and looks like he is dragging an ear of corn into a knot hole. Sorry, no pics available at this time.
Thanks for your input, Baker

The squirrel turned out to be a symbol for "HOARDING GOLD" the gold is represented by the ear of corn, that the squirrel is hoarding for winter.
Thanks, BAKER

squirrel is small and attend to go in hole so you should start look for hole so maybe that person want you to put your self as squirrel and behave like it..........................but remember there is no 100% treasure sign in the world even in the ancient place

but my brother say that it maybe a turtle sign and because it hide in its shield you should search for a hill near the the place

Trackers dont confuse kgc with spanish treasure signs, as the squirrel is not part of the spanish signs

ps the 100%treasure sign is the system of Alpha and Omega monuments! by the Spanish 15-16 century found world wide especially in the western hemisphere- what you may have meant is there is no ONE treasure sign.,no dig here sign, not allowed by the King of Spain
in that sense you are correct

There have been several Spanish, some Indian, some just K.G.C. all used on this K.G.C. cache. It is interesting to know that the Spanish do not use a squirrel for a sign. Thanks for the info.
Thanks, L.C. Baker

Hello L.C. good post, that squrrel may be just to identify that someone other than the Spanish was there and perhaps claimed it as their own, I think they done the samething with drill holes, just a guess on my part, should be a windrose nearby because of the size indicates it as needed to measure by the pace / foot

Hey dsty! I keep reading about a windrose and i have no ideal what a windrose is. Would you please explain to me what a windrose is? Thank you so much.

May the sun be warm on your face and the breeze cool on your back, and your trails downhill.

Is this the kind of windrose that you mean? If so, in a round about way we do have one associated with the squirrel. He is within 25 yards of a nearby compass point we have located. There were some relics taken from the base of the compass point. All found relics, from the same hole 1ft deep. On another retrieved, encrypted object made of lead, we have deciphered what we believe to be three different headings that match the the angles on another compass point.
The first relic that was found has a "Tobias" marked on it that is tied to a three digit number. It also has the three different headings that I previously spoke of. There were no Spanish involved in it. The K.G.C. masterminds that made the way-bill / map, adopted some Spanish treasure signs into use on it. Like the Tobias. Also confusing is the fact that the first piece is in the shape of a cross, and contains the inscribed Tobias on it. We are in the time consuming process of trial and error as far as locating what we believe to be three locations for three different caches.
Still looking, L.C. Baker

Hey, dsty......good thinking. When I read your post a light when on (so to speak, LOL) It make me remember a post by Old Dog about that 3-toed Monk who used the sign of a human foot with 3 toes as his "trail marker". It is possible that that squirrel is the signature of a person or particular group as a cache I.D.

That comass look to me to have the 8 ( eight ) degrees that seems to work on everything that I have worked. Thanks for the post, very helpful. SS they were crafty critters, kinda like a signature. I've seen lots of things in the bottom of a drill hole. Deer tracks with dew claws = danger, regular track safe passage, heart = something near-by / directional. it really helps to look at everything,

Could you expand on the 8 reference a little for us novice K.G.C. hunters?
Thanks, Baker
