Hehehe, "snow flies".  There will be no snow in MT's neck of the woods...ever. But the flies are sometimes like a blizzard  2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madtuna Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Still going and will for a while yet me thinks. I haven't posted much because of some of the ridiculous comments on another forum. Seems people want you to do a write up and show some finds, yet when you do they tell you not to? Even some sound and sensible advice like I should sell some to fly some guy I've never met over to help me dig it out and process it cause he's a good guy and good with a pan? Yep like that will happen. Anyway, still picking up what has shed and will be for a while yet, that's not including the hole which I've hardly touched. That I've just dug out all signals to down passed detector depth and filled back in and made it look like natural ground which was a job and a half on its own. 21grs from 4 hours work yesterday  8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smartest. Move. Ever! I know you say you're far off any sort of beaten path and away from prying eyes, but doing backfill-and-grooming as you go along given total area, amount present and timetable for removal just makes good solid sense to me.. Anyone else picking up a Lost Dutchman's Mine kinda vibe from this..? Swamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDdesertman Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Thanks for the update. Looking forward to seeing more of your treasures from that location. Looks like there are plenty more to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
