Oddrock:
There appears to be a bunch of white-ish spots on the side of the top rock that are connected with a black line. Something like these as posted by Old Dog:

Bill, maybe so I will just say I dont know. Worth looking into as to distance and checking my notes.

Ladies and gentlemen: If I may suggest, 'always' follow the small faultings / cracks that extend from inside to the outside or vice versa to see if it is natural. If they continue from one to the other then it most likely is due to mom nature.

I have found one such heart, which had a "V" in it. One leg for sure lead to a trail of markers. I have not followed the other line out yet, but suspect it leads to a trail also. Different trails are marked differently.

My next riddle is to figure out the heart holes with dots in the center of them?

Hello Casca , really good photos, I can't figure how to invert, sometimes you can get information from the outside edge using the pecking dots, the small drill holes that I see are those that have worked for me is, large to small, deep to shallow directional and measurement X pace ( 33 inch ) distance between ( center to center ) X 10 may be MM or CM and I have never tried to use depth of the hole to figure a multiplier on the smaller holes but it is important on the larger hole so it probably is important on the smaller ones, If I was working your site I would use the 3/16th holes for direction and use the larger hole for distance if it was near. and it looks like 10 cm X 10 cm = 2 X circumference of top of the drill hole = 34.5 = 69 paces or a cordell

I pretty much just follow my nose. I cant do the formulas, or the triangles. I have noticed the holes are a trail, could be by a more modern source so they can track where they have been. I can usually follow most trails, but my new friends here have showed some stuff I was missing. Now I dont see any gold or silver. But I have a neat idea of who was here. I also know when you find those holes, you want to look at that area real good, I have found surprises in them. Smiles.

Dsty,
you stated "the small drill holes that I see are those that have worked for me is, large to small, deep to shallow directional "

I have found and deciphered the same thing- I have a pic but cannot access it right now, here is a rendering of the idea...


thanks Ernie for the continued lesson, you make the most sense of drill holes than any body I know! You are a national treasure!

Back in the water she went.

About the only thing I know about sea turtles is that they don't come onto land except when they (females) lay their eggs. They'll come out of the water, move up the beach above the high tide line; dig a shallow pit; lay the eggs; recover the shallow pit; and go back to the water. The only marks they make are the longish marks left by their bodies and the hash marks left by their flippers.

Now, lets find those "eggs" in their shallow pits.

Oddrock, I think your turtle is looking for something. You better go help it.

Bill,

I really like the SHALLOW pit part and in sand also would be good.

Casca,

She seems to be taking a long look underwater.....

Follow the river around the bend and out she comes once again.

Awesome stuff Odd.
Great photography as well. Good to see you out chasing trails again.

Thanks Rangler, most of the things I learned because there is an over abundance of drill holes in this area that one can, see / measure / compass degrees, I am at the age and health that the best I can do is to help others in their quest. I've been lucky enough to find several sites and done my best to figure the method used, dug holes vary from 4 inches deep in solid rock with a lid, to 7 feet 7 inches deep The one that was in solid rock and 4 inches deep had a triangle about 25 feet south and the indicated directions were north, east, west, use the bottom of the triangle as if it was a bow and arrow to the top of the triangle ready for flight for the one that points North, The triangle indicated the distance to be 1/2 of a league or 1 and 1/4 th mile each direction, I believe there was 5 each 7's across the top I believe that the 5 7's indicate that there will be 5 caches in this line and that's about the distance to Red River. Yesterday was a busy area, 4 groups of headstart, church groups, and others that joined in with 2 / 3/ 4 year old kids and they had themselves a blast on a Easter Egg hunt, may have been 30 / 40 of them, everbody got cookies ( even had a couple for me ) anyway Thanks for the encouragement

Thanks Thom,

Chasing trails or my own tail sometimes, either way it is great therapy. I for one will continue as long as possible.

She is getting tired now....on up the hill a bit, on a directional rock she sits....checking her way....pay close attention as she has lots to say....

Beats the heck out of a psychiatrist any day.

My gosh, those turtles are so very neat.

The first one, is that a few letters on it toward the top? And could it be a crooked single finger with finger nail on it up front? ? Also does the flowing part indicate the river bend? Not studied the other ones yet. Looks like a tiny confirmation face in the water behind it looking at that awesome turtle butt. lol



On the second turtle crawling out...is that a triangle on its back? Will mark it if you want. See some cross hatching on its head..of some sort. And generally a few things seem to indicate slightly right.

Going back to your janus, I am not so sure that is the main purpose of that rock. Over all it makes a big U with the surrounding rock and carved out shield shape part.

The carved interior is indistinct to me. Maybe letters. It seems rather indistinct for faces, as if faces might be a secondary meaning not a primary meaning. Just speculation. I thought I saw some strong straight lines too. I've only seen one or two janus.

Oddrock;
In photo #3949, where "she's" coming out of the water; that shape on the back of her neck area looks like a heart with it's arrow shot pointing in the same direction as the head. Must be the confirmation to follow up to that group of rocks in your last photo.
Noooooow, for some crayon time. LOL

 

[Shortstack]

OK, here's what I see. That looks like another turtle on the right, coming up behind the "she" turtle. In the far background, there might be a heart, but it could also be some shadow work, too. The main turtle has a couple of round symbols on the side of it's head; a notch on the lower edge (a confirmation notch??) and some letter-like symbols along the lower edge of the shell.
