Why this case is worth researching: Belle Starr Outlaw Caches pairs a documented historical event with an unrecovered-cache claim, which is what the PinPoint Treasure pipeline is built to test — cross-referencing archival sources, geology, mining records, and 1-meter LiDAR terrain where coverage exists. Every claim on this page carries an evidence grade, and grades are never raised to fill a gap.
Recommended workflow for the Belle Starr Outlaw Caches case: (1) read the primary sources and establish which of them are independent of each other, (2) run the cipher engine on any coded material, (3) scan the highest-probability bounding box with LiDAR where coverage exists, (4) cross-check anomalies against NDVI vegetation stress and iron-oxide satellite signatures, and (5) confirm land status before any field work.
