This is the region where I believe is the Caballo's almacen . Our experienced dowsers friends here can confirm this . Could they ?

RobertE: I quote Aart here, as I want to build on what he says. About dowsing, Einstein once said: “I know very well that many scientists consider dowsing as a type of ancient superstition. Accorrding to my conviction this is, however, unjustified. The dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the reaction of the human nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time.”That is what the skeptics call a Ideomotor response. They base this on a 1850 definition. After much research I have found that definition is not correct. It is now called Taught Ideomotor response. When you are driving down the highway and the car in front of you goes sideways your foot goes to the brake pedal without thinking about it. When you touch something hot You move your hand off of it without having to think about it. There are many things in life that you do automatically. May Baseball stars use hypnosis to improve their hitting. That is a form of teaching their body to automatically to respond to what they see. Race car drivers automatically respond to what they feel the car do.....Art
Aart: I think everyone has to figure out for them selves, those things and theories that works for them. As for me, I like Einsteins take on it. I use the rods you see in my picture here. I have found many things using them. In fact, for the most part, I stopped digging out targets I pin pointed with my electronic metal detector. It can be back breaking work. But I do know I have passed up some of the good stuff.Hey Les. I don’t know just how dowsing works. I have ideas just like everyone else. I see nothing that would cause anyone to stop dowsing. Don’t have to know anything else to use dowsing. Heck it is the only hobby I have had that has paid for it self.
I agree.You have to understand that all targets emits signal that can be picked up with dowsing rods. How far you can pick this signal up is determined by the size of the object. On bigger objects you maybe able to pick them up for miles
Questions:What I do is hold one rod with my elbow on the center console. I go down the road at the speed limit. When the rod makes a quick move to either side I slow down and turn around and go back the other way. When the rods swings again I park and get out. When the rods find a signal I either follow it or take a gps reading. If I take 3 of them about 50 foot apart on the signal line I can put it in my lap top. I can then look for access roads along the line. It takes a lot of time to learn what the quick pull is at speed.
I have tried everything that people have told me or I have read. If I can use the information or if it does not work for me I keep it in my memory as some day it may be some what I need
It is a gold baited rodIs the dowsing rod you show in this picture the same one you use when not dowsing from the car / truck?
I am a two rod userHave you always used one rod and not two rods when you dowse?
Yes I haveHave you found anything using this dowsing technique?
WOW, I am going to learn and practice this method of dowsing. It has huge potential.What I do is hold one rod with my elbow on the center console. I go down the road at the speed limit.

Personally, I am not bothered at all that dowsing is now called the "Taught Ideomotor Response" We are told by the dowsing pros to practice, practice practice, then practice more. This on going need to practice is the act of teaching ourselves to allow our nervous system to respond to energy from a target. It is something we have to learn to accept. Through practice we learn how to relax, to read what the rods are telling us and simply accept it. Example: I have never found anything directly if front of me, it has always been to my left.
So, I say, let your sub conscience mind (nervous system) act like an antenna to pick up target energies. It will, in turn, move your hands which will then move your rods. That is how I see dowsing.
