subsequently ended up at a place called Big Springs.
If this is not the Waters of Mormon, it should be. The pictures do not do it justice. The 'fountain of water' (see scripture link above) is aqua blue, crystal clear and boils up about 3 feet from the surface. Water crest grows freely on its banks. This is indeed a special place. It fits well with all geographic locations including
Helam and
Zerahemla. Let's talk.

Wayne May has located 41 hill top forts that string across Illinois from the Mississippi River on the West and Ohio River on the East. The forts are built on rock wall out
croppings and are as large as 5 to 20 acres or larger. The forts were lookouts for
Gadianton robbers trying to get to the
Nephite/
Lamanites. the robbers would be stopped between the forts. The area South of the 41 forts was the land where the people grew crops and raised their animals for almost 7 years. Subsequently, the
Gadianton robbers were defeated and everyone returned to their separate cities.
