Thanks for the shout-out. Glad you are out having fun. Those drill holes beg to have a stick stuck in each and see where they point; though, being in such a small rock it may have moved over the years. I have seen similar-sized ones down in the Dragoon range in AZ but in much larger boulders, as well as in a few other places.

[@LowBudgetExploration]

Anytime my friend! This is one of my little secret spots, hidden away in the desert, I explore from time to time. The drill holes are interesting and I still have a few other things in the area I need to follow up on. There are some really cool petroglyphs in the area, but forgot to include them in the video.

Hi. You mentioned Antoine Robidoux in a video. He’s my fourth great uncle. My Grandpa was a Roubidoux. Rick from SaltLake

[@LowBudgetExploration]

That is cool! Your great uncle was an influential figure in the Rocky Mountain West. He was responsible for building numerous Forts and Trading Posts. He lived a very exciting life and helped prepare these areas for the Pioneers who could come decades later. He built three forts just in the little part of the world I grew up in. Sadly, his name is being lost to history.

respect for privacy of the sites

[@ocotillooutlaws4101]

Thanks for another great video! Just got back from your neck of the woods on an adventure. So disturbing to find these sites that have been vandalized / destroyed by unknowing or just selfish people... We found graffiti dated 1940 that read " got here before you and took it all" and the glyph's were chipped out also 😢so sad. Went back to the Warner Valley to revisit a site we found last year with a what we think is a Spanish trail marker/cairn to document and research a little more. Fortunately this was not damaged and is not by frequently used trails. We located the next marker down in the valley by a main trail and it had been destroyed and reduced to nothing but a strewn pile of rocks. 😒 it is a challenge to protect these sites. It is important that the significance of these sites is shared with the younger generations so they may also learn and understand these are irreplaceable and to preserve and protect them. With your pictograph/glyph interpretation skills you should look for the Utah treasure next year! Thanks again!☮

[@LowBudgetExploration]

I agree 100% with what you said about protecting these sites and passing on knowledge. What a d*ck (the 1940's guy). I wish you the best of luck with your research and I hope you find what you seek.

I really like how passionate and educated you are about all this. To say that this is the treasure in reference to the petroglyphs is really neat. Do you read about these spots or just go out and explore? I’ve got two small boys who I’d like to get outside and get into this. Where would you reckon is a good place to start as far as learning and finding these really neat places? We live in Herriman, I’d like to go far out into the desert and boondock. Figure kids can’t go too far wrong if I get them outside having fun like this, especially now a days. Thanks for making these videos, they’re inspiring and really neat. It’s really amazing to look back at how people lived and what they went through and just picture someone carving this into rock. Thanks again.

[@LowBudgetExploration]

I think you have an amazing idea going on there and your boys will love you for it when they are grown men. How do I find stuff you ask? I'm blessed and have been really lucky. About 70% of what you see in my videos is stuff I've discovered while out exploring and about 30% is stuff family/friends have told me about and allowed me to film. Most of my family members were; sheep herders, cowboys or lumberjacks here in the Uinta Basin. These old timers found all the cool stuff and I grew up hearing their stories. These stories from the elders in my family have given me an upper hand, so I know where some of the Spanish Carvings were before being cut down in the 1930's, 40's, 50's and 60's. Some stuff I was shown as a kid I am still looking for and have not been able to relocate yet. I also have a really good friend named Woody who I greatly respect and value his opinion. He has been treasure hunting for many years in the Basin and has lots of knowledge. Always remember; the guys you never hear about are the ones finding stuff! They keep there discoveries very secret. They don't write books, have youtube channels and etc. I am lucky because these guys are family/friends and they trust me. Most of these guys (the ones actually finding stuff), laugh at what they read in the "Treasure Hunting Books". We are currently researching another treasure cache. We have found two rock maps and believe we have narrowed down the site of the cache. Hopefully, we will be able to hike into the site before the snow comes. The video like the one you referenced is about 30 minutes long, but years of research can go into something like that. Lot's of exploring and patience to find the next clue. What I do is sometimes very dangerous/reckless, so please be careful. 99% of the time I am by myself in very remote areas. If anything happens to me; break a leg, fall down a cliff, get attacked by a Mountain Lion and etc, I am screwed. In the end, just do it for the fun of it and enjoy seeing Mother Nature at her finest. The real treasure is the wildlife and beautiful scenery. Living where you live, I would explore Spanish Fork Canyon and maybe the Hoyt Peak area. I think both areas are close to your house. Take your boys to Nine Mile Canyon and explore some of the side canyons looking for Cliff Dwellings. I've sat on the Cliff Faces high up in Nine Mile and watched the tourist come through the Canyon. They never venture further than a few feet from their vehicles, so they never find the really cool stuff. Good luck!

[@CatsScrapandRecycling]

I enjoyed your video as always. I'd like to maybe put you or someone else on to an old Spanish trail that was shot in with a sextant. It would be great if someone with a good drone and flying skills could document this trail. I saw it nearly fourty years ago. while climbing the other side of the canyon. It's an easy spot to get to by car, but one hell of a hard climb if you try to get to the trail itself. Now for the directions: Go up Dry Fork Canyon out of Vernal. Continue up the canyon to the last saw tooth. It will be on your left. Stop there and on the right side of the canyon about half way up is a set of switch backs that put any switch backs we have today to shame. These switch backs are lined up with each other on angle of grade, start of each switch, and spaced the same distance apart all the way to the top. From the saw tooth you can see it real well. That's why I suggest a drone. The climb to the saw tooth from the bottom of the canyon took me almost 2 hours, it's that steep. I was in my early 20s then and in good shape. Seeing a drone video of this site would be amazing. Thanks again my friend. Keep up the good work. Cat

Good video but wrong about the 5 Chiefs. The Spanish had no regards nor respect for the native Indians .. we haven’t found any reference on any site of the Spanish mentioning native Indians buried on a site.

[@togo3624]

Thanks for another great video. Really appreciate your knowledge. How did they chip out these maps. Metal tools or rocks? What are characteristics of an authentic map?

[@LowBudgetExploration]

Very good questions. I'm sure they used iron tools for the most part, unless they were trying to "blend" it in with the surrounding petroglyphs, then they would peck them into the rock Indian style. I can only speak based on my own experiences, but in my experience they use imagery a lot for the maps. A friend and I are trying to break/decipher another one right now. I've been working on it for over a year, but haven't had any luck. I finally thought I had found the cache site a few months ago, but it turned out to be nothing. In this case, the imagery is of a dragon/serpent like creature, the head of an Indian and a couple of old colonial style homes. These maps are imbedded into the surrounding Indian petroglyphs and located way out in the middle of nowhere. Look for stuff that looks out of place and was made to be noticed, but blend in at the same time. Look for these maps in the vicinity of known areas the Spanish worked and/or travelled through. In the imagery look for Spanish treasure symbology and features that look exaggerated in the image. Overly large eyes, a tail that is too large and looks more like a trail, one ear is bigger than the other ear, features out of place like an eye moved over to far on the face. Stuff like that.

Great video…just subscribed to your channel. Any info on lost gold/gold mining in the Henry Mountains of southern Utah? Thanks, T.

[@LowBudgetExploration]

St. Sauvage, thanks for the sub and welcome. There are stories about lost mines in the Henry Mountains and it is very possible the Spaniards and American Prospectors all sunk shafts into that mountain range. The Henry's consist of Laccolith's (think of face pimples, but instead of puss you have magma). Laccoliths are Igneous Intrusions that occur beneath the earth's surface. They typically create Sill's underground and at the outer edges of these sills is where I would expect to find the most mineralization, to include gold deposits. The Molten Magma get's sandwiched between other layers of rock and forms Horizontal Intrusions that extend sideways. I have never explored the Henry's, but have researched them from time to time. On KZbin type in Terry Carter, Clues to a Massive Spanish Treasure in the Henry Mountains and Terry Carter, Gold ore found in the Henry Mountains. This might help you out. I will be releasing a video today here in about 3 hours titled, "Miners Lore - The geology of an 1800's prospector". You might find it helpful in your search.

I used to work in fisheries and worked with Squawfish and know what they look like on an intimate level lol.I have to say my first thought of this fish was a Sturgeon - due to the markings - when you said it was 4 ft - that made even more sense. Sturgeon get huge - like as much as a ton historically

[@leveractiongypsy1848]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_sturgeon#/media/File:White_sturgeon_farming_california.jpg

[@LowBudgetExploration]

I had also considered a Sturgeon at one time, but historically there were never any sturgeon in this area. Sqawfish fish were the catch of the day, the pioneers used to call them "Salmon of the Rockies", until their populations were decimated. Keep in mind this is a map pecked into rock and its primary purpose is to lead to another clue site, not to be an accurate depiction of any type of fish. They just modeled it on the local squawfish they were catching, so it didn't attract unnecessary attention. Your observation is sound, not saying its not. Just in this scenario I believe a squaw fish is more likely what they were embedding their symbolism in.

[@leveractiongypsy1848]

​@@LowBudgetExploration I do believe the Colorado River historically had Sturgeon before dams and overfishing wiped them out by the mid 70s. The Green River being a large trib to the Colorado would've likely had Sturgeon at one time as well

Skull n cross bones is a excellent treasure marker . Golgatha first representation of the symbol

[@LowBudgetExploration]

The only thing that concerns me is the symbol is of very poor quality, meaning it was only scratched and not etched into the rock. It is very odd and obviously in a very remote area. Not in an area where someone would do it as a joke or something like that. Basically, nobody would ever see it and etc. I'm leaning toward they might have traced it out on the rock before they chiseled the image into the stone, but then for whatever reason changed their minds. At this point, I honestly don't know. I have never found anything like it before.

[@clintxxxracerx9435]

You always hear that the Spaniards had perimeter Reconnaissance Soldiers, that would usually be 6- 10 Men. They would basically form a circle around the camp during night / day depending what time of day mining the mining activities went on. The circle would have 3- outer rings from the target they were protecting. (Depending on size of Expedition.) Farthest Forward Position not to be confused w/ today’s Sniper FFP Final Firing Position (kinda same concept tho), & Intermediate Position, If was a large operation, they would have a Final position, this circle This circle would be men trained in the art of covertness, blending into the environment & geographic background. They would work approximately 1-mile outward from the operation they were protecting and would work as a relay team when a potential hazard was spotted. The FFP Recon would fall back to Intermediate and intermediate to the closest Recon position to the operation and the back Recon would go already everyone. The soldiers who were there to fight would man positions the bankers & accountant miners would take what they could and run. However, if they had to bury some of their spoils, by Spaniard Law, they had to place a marker / Map to later be found by Kings Men. If the guy who buried the Cashe did escape and make it back to Spain, he would have to accompany the Kings amen back for said Cashe retriever and if it wasn’t marked, he was buried! All that said, maybe that skull & bones is a marker made in a hurry and it is explaining that had to leave for fear of death, Cashe buried where it directs.

What would the Spanish or Indians for that matter be drilling holes in bricks for? Loose bricks

[@LowBudgetExploration]

Those are what is referred to as shale rock, they look like bricks but are natural. Indians would mark holes in rocks to use for measuring the winter/summer solstice. Archeologist have documented this being done on the Utah/Colorado border. The Spaniards would drill holes for purposes of marking treasure sites, mines and veins.

[@LowBudgetExploration]

@@rileymanderscheid9805 They would use the surrounding sand/dirt as a cutting mechanism, which consist primarily of small grains of quartz, garnet and feldspar. All of which are very hard materials on the Mohs Scale, especially quartz. They would take this abrasive sand place on the rock, then grab a round object made of hardwood, piece of bone, or rock if they could find a round one and move the round object back and forth, slowly cutting a semi perfect circle into the rock. This was done similar to how ancient people started fire using the friction of a stick on a piece of wood. Only in this case they were using this method to make small holes in rock. They would go through a lot of material doing this, but they had plenty to work with.
