What is that face looking at? Where the treasure is buried or is it just sniffing for treasure with its big nose?

The stone maps only lead to one place. The stone heart has a trail marker X on the bottom. This is that X. Exactly where it should be on the trail. Plus that's not all!

This heart has a map. Search the heart, search the map.

Nature is full of hearts is it not. Even found a gold nugget shaped like a heart.
I found a heart once. It led me to the Land of Cotton Candy. I don't think that was done by nature or it might have been the meds I was on at the time. lol

Well this part confuses me being that Bob Ward and Bambi are my uncle and Aunt. Bambi goes by name "Cookie" and I lived with Bob off and on as kid. So I do remember getting in to a lot of trouble for some thing major, but I cant recall what it was. I was the only kid that was out there from my memory, unless it was the guys kid that found the stone maps so more than likely I am that kid that broke the tablet. I remember the big map inside his shack. May I ask who you are that you know my aunt and Bob so well, she doesnt remember do to the accident, I can tell you in private Msg. to confirm who I am. Please and thank you

Bayy,
Does this picture jog your memory of what you saw and possibly broke?
Take care,

Ha Bayy. You go down in history and have left your mark. You broke your uncles heart. The stone one that is.

Life is strange as ****. Bayy is a good guy and friend. Even if he did break the heart.

Howdy Not Peralta,
I don't know where you get your stories, I never bought the mission story, and I don't buy the crack in the heart story. In my opinion the story about Travis Tumlinson taking the stones to clean at a gas station has more merit. Witnesses said there were roots growing on the groves. After they told him that they might be a treasure map, he became more protective of them.
This story has a picture with the stones on a car bumper. That picture shows only the trail stones, and the heart stone inside one of the trail stones. Travis had found the Priest/Horse stone a year before, it is what brought him back to look for the other stones as the Priest indicates to look for them in the same hole.
The other thing that the picture shows, is that the heart stone was already glued.

One of the things that make a good debate is disagreement. Discussing our different beliefs is where we may all learn something new if we keep an open mind.
These stones have had a fascinating history. Yet there are a few of the stones that have never been made public.
Without the information on them, no solution is possible. Do you really think that a real treasure hunter would give up ALL that he knew?
It's always nice to have an ace in the hole. I was lucky enough to know one such treasure hunter who had his "aces in the hole" for years. np

Perhaps the AJ gas station clean up was for show. Don't assume anything. Human nature and motives. You just don't know unless your in their brain.

Coazon,
The actual Travis T version of the story is that he tripped over the corner of a stone while trying to get a better picture of Weaver's Needle. When he noticed the very unnatural corner, he dug it up, and voila! he found the "DON" Stone. He went back to the car, got a shovel out of the trunk, and dug the rest of the stones. When his Uncle Bob got the stones in about 1956, he also had a map supposedly drawn by Travis T showing the actual spot he dug the stone maps.
That might have been camouflage for the real story of his grandfather John Pegleg Tumlinson buying (or stealing) the stone maps from the Mission at Arizpe, Mexico. Nobody knows for certain, and all the first hand people involved are dead. So to me, it doesn't really matter. Queen Creek, Arizpe, whatever. Travis T had the stone maps. There is a very good possibility he carved the Horse/Priest Stone.
Frank,
It may be possible, but I don't think the gas station cleanup was just show. Al Reser stated that a man named Charlie Miller was close friends with Travis Tumlinson. When he left the gas station, Tumlinson took the stones to Miller's House. Miller told Al Reser that he helped Tumlinson clean the stones, and described the little roots in the grooves.

Would it have been possible that Peg Leg might have had the "Distance" map (or at least a rubbing of it) from Azripe showing the location of where to dig for the Stone Maps? My thought has always been that, if they are real, one map piece is missing.

The other more probable cause for Tumlinson having distorted how he found the stones is that his grandfather did not necessarily steal the stones themselves, but had stolen waybills or letters describing the locations of where the stones were buried (as described in Coronado's Children under "Witching for Silver"). This "described burials" scenario is further supported by the arrangement and pattern of the five dots on the upper left on the horse side of the HP rock which are roughly in the same pattern and arrangement as the burial sites out at QC that were GPS-plotted by SH and Cub some years ago I believe. The line below those five dots and the "RIO" including the exaggerated leg on the R points in the right direction as far which direction QC flows, if I am not wrong.
We also have the story that Charlie Miller who knew about the QC location and who went back to search some more and found the Latin Heart in the same area. One must ask why and what made him go back to look for more? How would he know if there was anything else to be found?
Keep in mind he was good friends with Tumlinson and would have been privvy to further information.
