[QUOTE="Jon, post: 117714, member: 717"] :lol: Welcome to the world of Doug Stone maps. First, I gotta say I have used them and still own some and when I was a newie they at least sent me in the right direction, I say that loosely. But never rely on them for true accuracy, just a rough guide to get you somewhere, but sometimes the road may not actually be where he shows it and sometimes neither are the diggings. I once went to a place a number of years ago that was shown on one of his maps. It showed a large area of digs, to cut it short there was nothing there at all and never had been. And no they had not been dozed in or the land reclaimed, they never existed! Had they actually existed they would have covered a fair acreage. I now tend to think of them as glorified mud maps.
