TomH Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Hey all: Was able to take the quad out and do some exploring today and detect also.First area I went to was a looooong way in as the wash was blocked by a bedrock waterfall. Had to go way around to get in. Turned out to be a bust. Bunch of shale....no trash though! Spent most of the day there and then hit another wash on the way out.Hiked back in a little over a half mile and was able to get the small one first. Got the bigger one about 30 yards upstream from that.I was getting pretty tired so I called it quits after that. No sense on doing stupid swinging. Will go back another time when im fresh. 1.5 grams total. Good Lord blessed me with some nice gold and a great day out. Enjoy.............Tom H.

boulder dash Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Once again you got over the gold. You must be getting ready for the metal detecting nationals. First place is a pink coil cover. That place looks familiar... That is over by that wash with the broken fence that goes past the lost mine shaft by the badger den with ketchup packets around the entrance and the dead tree with a ground squirrel in the top of it past the cholla forrest next to the rock with the blue belly lizard doing pushups to impress lady lizards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
