Nancy Drew and the Secret of Shadow Ranch Hints
How do I follow the message inside the ballerina box?
1 of 5: Pull out the piece of paper you used to mark the petroglyphs on days 1 and 2.
2 of 5: Click on each picture in the order shown on the new message.
3 of 5: That is, first click on the mountain goat at the left, then on the hand, then on the dog thing, and so on.
4 of 5: This draws a blue line from one to the next. If you want to undo one, click on it again and the line disappears.
5 of 5: When you get them all correctly, the line turns red and Nancy makes a comment.
