Wagoner's Lost Ledge

[SPARTANOC]

Speaking of Hewitt..........and Millsite.....
Get a 1900 USGS map of the area and find the horse.
May give some "fun spots" to investigate, if you're into seeing faces in maps View attachment 2179729View attachment 2179728

Okay - that's just too cool! Of course, I'm easily amused....

Notice that the horses "eyes" are Millsite Canyon and Buzzard's Roost (not labled on the map), using roads, rivers and contours to form the shapes. Buzzard's Roost is the name of a Jesse James hideout in Oklahoma, making an appearance here in the Sups.
Well, if your "brain's eye" is creative enough, you can see a 5-pointed star on Buzzards Roost if you go there.
It's not a small star you have to be close to see. You can see it from miles out with binos.
The other eye is Millsite Canyon........

Im not going to point it out. I'm hoping you can see it w/o help. When I show this to local dutch-hunters, they see nothing. Well, they say they see nothing.........
I do, but maybe it's bias and an over-active imagination. Does anyone else see it?

I believe I can see it - I'm taking in consideration, that your reference to the STAR is for the Waltz story?

Well, yes and no. Maybe
My current running theory(?) idea(?) is that the Wagoner and the Dutchman, (and other stories written by other authors) are "planted" stories. You know...."Russian prostitutes and pee tapes," to distract you from what's really going on. A large group hiding LARGE money, so large they have a team of deceptive things going on.
But..... incase that theory is wrong, Im hiking and looking into all that I can, because Ive been wrong many, many times before.
I didnt think the Wagoner could do it. Now, I know he couldn't, as described by Barry Storm. So, I dont need to spend time on that part of the story. It is clearly either a fanciful story, an overactive imaginative author who only slightly changes things for personal interests, or purposeful deception as part of a larger initiative. I think the latter.
So, if Barry Storm were working somehow deceptively for "corporate" interests (and I am pulling that out of my wahzoo as I have zero evidence for that. It is a hunch I need to flesh out...), then this story relates to Buzzards Roost because its all part of the same show.
BUT, I may be alone here so, with respect to OP, because I dont want to derail this thread with my pet theories anymore, (Im starting to feel guilty), Ill do my best to refrain from bringing it up here and stick to the classic Wagoners themes. That said, Im including one last pic of Buzzards Roost from a book published in 2003. I think some erosion may have happened between then and now, so, it may be clearer in this pic.

I AM comfortable saying, however, I think Barry Storm may have had reasons for pulling the location from Millsite Canyon and putting it in the LaBarge area.....and as such am comfortable discussing Millsite in the context of Wagoners.
