Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

Best of luck in all your hunts.
Hope you do find some of those coins.

I recomend you dig every signal as there is a lot more than coins that got dropped.

Canada...and Td.

Ohhhhh.....err...what hill Oh THAT hill... THAT hill is scary. Don't want to talk about that hill. Makes me feel shaky.

Canada thank you so much! You caught that ground rock..those are often meaningful so I've heard. And.... you pointed out it could be related to that hill. Lets just call it The Hill with No Name. TD thanks for reminding me. Rangler thanks for the pm.

Here is a close up of the formation is was pointing too. Its not the best.



So could be a lot of ways to interpret it...time will tell.

Thom... thank you for post. Indeed will be studying them..

TD you pictures crack me up bro! lol

Now to catch up on rest of the posts here.

Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

You should always exercise caution Kim,
But don't let a hill side scare you as it stands.
if there is a death trap present it will not be tripped by normal traffic.

They usually are stable , and can only be triggered if a key point is disturbed.
exploration is not going to bother it.
I am not saying there is one there, I am saying IF it is there.
It will be digging that will make that hill side dangerous.


Happy hunting
Thom

Re: Basic Spanish signs and symbols you have found

A short note to all

If you ever find a site on a hill side that is a definite dig.
Please be very careful to study every aspect of the hill above the dig ,
and understand that the part you dig out will destabilise the part above the hole.
When you start you will notice that once you get started the regular dirt layer will turn to a fine sandy layer.
Under the fine sand you will probably find a thin layer of loose gravel. Big RED flag!
STOP digging and study!
This is a standard set up that has been found many times and ignored.
It is put together in such a way that
when you have removed enough of the over burden to reach your cache or tunnel entrance,
The over burden remaining will have enough free space to slide. It is meant to slide...
Crushing anything and anyone in it's path.

Like I said before, regular foot traffic won't bother it,
But digging will.
No hole in the ground,
and No amount of treasure is worth any of your lives.
Please, stay safe out there.

Here is a link that gives some insight to some of the more elaborate death traps as well as some of the very simple ones.
We can thank Gollum for gathering all of this together.

Hey Thom and others. I found this book by accident while looking for something else. Naturally I thought of this thread and thought I would post to see if anyone has read this and what they thought. If someone has never seen it before then maybe it might be useful for them? Good luck!

This book is at best a stretch of copied information from Kenworthy's books,
as well as some from Gale Rhoads "Waybill to Spanish Mines and Treasures"

The original information is, as I said above, a stretch.
Mostly another treasure hunter who didn't have enough of his own information to print something new.
