Start: Find a Treasure Hunter being harassed by bandits and help him. This is
a random event so simply ride around to trigger it.
-------------------
Once you've gotten the treasure map all you need to do is find the treasure. It
is much harder than you might think since the clues are all pretty vague. This
will attempt to guide you to each treasure.
Hidden Treasure 1: Your tip points towards the hanging rock so head on over
that way. Go to the north side of the rocks and look for the largest boulder,
the treasure is hidden in its shadow through a narrow path. When you find the
pile of rocks examine them to find Rhodes Gold.
Hidden Treasure 2: This one is very hard to get to even when you know what you
are looking for. Open your map and look for Rio Bravo. Now zoom out and look to
the southeast for a cliffside trail east of Fort Mercer that goes towards the
water. Follow that path until you reach the top of the hills where you find a
camp near Del Lobo Rock (south-west of Rio Del Lobo). From the camp go to the
right, towards the cliff and look over and to the left. The treasure is under
the overhanging rock, on a ledge between it and the shoreline. Make your way
over to the hanging rock and slide down towards the circular pile of stones to
find your treasure.
Hidden Treasure 3: Compared to that last one this one is a breeze. You need to
go to Tumbleweed. Head on over there, clear out the Gang Hideout and then go
into the mansions basement. Here you will find the treasure chest against a
wall across from the entrance.
Hidden Treasure 4: This requires you to reach Mexico before it can be done.
When you arrive look at the map near Chuparosa and you will see a goat. To the
northeast of that, along the small trail that runs near the river, is a tree
with skulls adorning it. Look to the north where a stone wall right by the
river sits - on the side that faces the river you can find the stone pile.
Hidden Treasure 5: Well this one is really easy to get... almost disappointing
in how easy it is to get. Go to Irish's cabin along the Rio to start. Look at
the map and you will see a three prong cacti to the south, head over that way.
You will see a pair of strange rock structures here. Climb the larger one all
the way to the top to find a pile of rocks. There's also a treasure chest in
the base of this pile so that helps identify it.
Hidden Treasure 6: This is easy too! Head south from Chuparosa until you reach
the area called Ojo del Diablo. Look just to the left of the road, near the
dashed line, underneath the overhanging rock. On the upper level here you will
find the stones you're looking for.
Hidden Treasure 7: Your next destination is to the west of Roca de Madera and
north of Agave Viejo. Here there is a tall mountain that you can climb by
going all the way to the northeast along them,climbing to the top and then
going to the southwest along a narrow ledge. It's easy enough once you figure
out where you need to go. Find the pile of rocks at the end of the path and
it's time to move on to the next one.
Hidden Treasure 8: You will have to wait until the final area opens up before
you can get to this. When it does look on your map for Beecher's Hope. To the
right of this is a crossroads and beyond that the words "Broken Tree". Set a
marker to the northwest, just a bit off the road. Here you will find a tree
that looks to be split by lightning. Look in between the two low stone walls
nearby to find this treasure.
Hidden Treasure 9: The last one is surprisingly easy to find once you figure
out where to even look. Open your map and look at the words Tall Trees on it.
Directly to the north of that you will see a road that goes across the map,
east to west. There's a small, narrow road that goes north into the mountains
off of this path. You need to head up along that path to find a small cave you
can duck into. Inside you will find a chest and the final rock pile.
Getting to level ten nets you the Treasure Hunter's Satchel. This carries twice
the amount of consumables which, considering how strong enemies are, means you
can carry a whole lot of medicine.
