ColonelDan Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I’m currently in the Arctic Circle and won’t be home until 18 Feb. 😏 Fortunately, I had mine shipped, along with my hunting buddy’s, to his house so I’ll pick it up from him when I get home. The flattening of the learning curve will then begin! 👍 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad you don't have it with you. I haven't seen a video (yet) of anyone using it underwater to search for natural gold. You could have swung by Nome on the way home. Safe trip and I look forward to your reporting of your experiences with your new detector, hopefully in a couple weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 In 64 to 65 I was in Thule Greenland for a year. You couldn’t get far off the base due to a storm could come up quickly. I know of treasure can be found being this one green rock had nickel all in it. Just one storm lasted three days blowing at 150 and gusting to 175 . You can see you can’t last long if you can’t get out of it. When I left there in 65 the last of the planes had left already. Chuck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a pretty rough place up there this time of year, be careful and get back to the FL beaches when you can. I’m in CO in the snow and think (daydream) every day about a beach, the sun, my detector, a sand scoop, and nothing but time.🏖️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck I agree, Thule is a tough place. We always used to joke that if a guy screwed up, he would find himself handing out basketballs at the “base gym” at Thule. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
