thanks shortstack for the info. on the chevrons again. i have found them single,double,and trips,no quads yet.so iam sure your right on some type of count.i do know that any time i have found them,there are some great signs very close.in that area their is a pig,turtle,bird,fish,winged man,letters,#and other things.i really like seeing those chevrons,there always seems to be great signs close by ,in my area that i hunt anyways.i always think something is buried close,like treasure.maybe it is graves.they just seem to be a important marker in this area.thanks for the info.on them.keep your eye open for them.should be some good stuff close.
