The Penatuhkah Comanche Indians once lived where I live. They roamed The Leon and Sabana river lands just like I do when I hunt here. I joined the Trails Partnership to promote the area around me to others with similar interests in the history of this land. This new and exciting trail is just being designed. I live in De Leon Texas. We are near the camps and trails of Penatahkah chiefs "Old Owl" and "Buffalo Hump". The trail runs through the towns of Comanche, Goldthwaite, Brady, Santa Anna, Paint Rock, and others.
Join us to learn about "Marker Trees" ( saplings bent over and tied down to point to Springs, camps, rivers, etc. A few still exist today 150 years later. Smoke signal high points. And many more interesting sites along the way. Like Paint Rock and their wonderful rock paintings and the high points of the Santa Anna Mountains.
The picture is a Tree near De Leon that has not been verified but is what a Marker Tree might look like today. The coordinates are a county road. The tree is on private land.
