My fix on your problem is, try to convince the experienced retired gent (hal) on this site to come out and give you some pointers and help you decide if there is actually a camp there.
SHeez Sandy !!..thats a nice compliment but a statement like that could have me running all over the State
looking at new properties .. Tee-hee
RJ, the usual "how to" is to put select words in the search block above..lots of good input from knowledgeable posters over the years. Also, EXCELLENT just plain educational info can be had on ;;

Interesting detail on RJ's request for those in the know.
Burnet County covers most of the Llano uplift mineral / granite area, there wont be any traditional fire rock Middens to be found with little to no limestone.
As already suggested, near water is a key factor but finding a camp depends on RJ's exact property geology
( thin soiled granite bedrock camps will have washed away centuries ago )...
I just finished digging 3 mounds in Burnet County.
They were on a dry creek but probably had water
way back when. I was about a mile from the Lampasas River.
There was very little in the 3. A few Pedernalis & Nolan Points.
It was not even worth digging. The mounds were about 3’ tall.
They were solid fire rock, no bones and very little clams or snails.
I think it was too far from the Lampasas River to be a good camp but
you have to dig it some to see what is there.
I like to get a pair of binoculars and get down to about a foot from the ground.
You can spot them pretty easy. You never know when you will hit a good mound
until you dig some of it.
Hope this helps.
