Treasure hunting tips for the South West U.S.
Seek the springs of water
Massive operations took Massive amounts of water
almost every treasure site I am aware of , was very near a spring .
2. Nothing of extreme weight as gold bars , was carried up very high and secreted .
almost always , items hidden , were set down in areas where clear visibility of the land could be had .
3. Stone set upon stone , where no stone could have by nature , got there , is to be paid attention to
This is how trails were marked , not just to the cache , but to many items such as water and game .
Water is very important in this
seek the springs on oldest Topo maps , find those , seek any markers in that area .
Water had to be very close by for the burial team and the beast of burden .
On your topo map
circle each spring in the entire range .
one at a time seek monuments of stone .
these monuments will stand out to you if you educate your eyes to see them .
