I lived in DV for 7 months the winter of 06-07 with my then GF while she workamped at the grille/bar at the golf course Furnace Creek. The rangers give info talks at the visitor center there. I think I remember seeing one about DV rocks and minerals,,,,No gold even if 'Ol Scotty said so......🤨 I saw some of those at the gift shop at Stovepipe , forget what the label said though. We didn't take any rocks home with us but sure did take sand ! It was everywhere no matter how much we cleaned it out. The tops of my leaf springs , engine compartment , inside the roof vents .....LOL

I just read through this whole thread and... I'm still stunned from the pic at the beginning.😮

Welcome aboard CSO ! I have family and friends in Colorado , nice place to live . The other guys telling you this forum is great just ain't right ! It's way better than that ! Plop yer chair down around the campfire ask any questions you have and answer any you can.

Interesting reading here. Thx ElNino for the FFT spectrum analysis . Have you done that on an 800 ? (Nice scope display !!)

350 You have had a good season , bet you'll start finding some amazing stuff as you work your way through the "easy finds" layer.. That farmer sure did make your year a good one ! Keep at 'er !

She'll work fer sure ! Course remember now , you need to get it right over the gold🧐

Welcome to the group Hombre ! Que pasa amigo ? Found the mother lode , you did ! Got any questions , maybe some answers ? post 'em up !

Welcome aboard this ship of dirt pirates Tony. Your oar (scoop) is up front on the port side arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Thx . So ? the RF website is ok but some of the members may have some issues ? Sorry if I stirred something better left alone . I saw that they only allow 3 finders listed per city etc. and If you "buy" 3 memberships you get exclusive listing for your area. (brings to mind Amway ...) Retirement plans don't include a new job , guess I'll just wait for friends to lose something.... and If I can return random finds , bonus !

Saw gigmaster mentioning this again and got curious.... ?? (I found a friend's lost engagement ring once , a good day on the hunt .outside in the winter snow+ice. LOL but she sure was happy !! and yes I was using that old Micronta.) So I started to check it out....It seems like a legit operation... (The fee for a listing is $65 a year) https://theringfinders.com Saw a couple of mentions here on a search . Anybody actually a member or have other experience with ringfinders ? Other comments ?

Good hunt . You gotta use that buckle for your finds pouch !

Gerry That there is a gold horn ! Every time you honk it , all the gold within earshot moves a little closer to the surface ! It's true , I tell ya ! (I know this because of the clam whistles we use out on the mud uptah camp !)

Thx guys ! I have a friend in VA. I'm trying to talk into getting a detector. A link to this thread should help a LOT !

WTG What a display ! Now take that PI to the other shore and clean up after those early birds !

Yup yup !👍 The Force was with you ! That's what I call entering with a bang. And welcome in from the dark side......

Welcome to the forum Johnny ! Sometimes life just gets in the way . If you have a detector or not . You can learn a lot here. Like which detector is the perfect fit.. or figure it out after you decide. The pics here will be a big motivator to get out and dig too !

That's a good lookin' year right there !

Errrrrk ! You mean ,,,,,without my "Expedition Vehicle ????🙃 Wahhhhhh , skuh kuh kuh kuh kuh At that find level , I could hire Musk to build a stainless steel one ! I hear he has a nice scrap pile going.........

Wow, I think I need a new place to hunt ,,, is there a bridge to Australia somewhere ???🤔 WTG ! and good luck getting back to your high-er #s ..

It's interesting to see various methods we're developing on the Nox. I started out in 5 tone but there was 50 tone just sitting there......so I've been trying to decipher 50 tone lately , Each one has a name for us musicians but the chart linking them all to their respective target doesn't seem to exist ,,,yet. thus the deciphering part...arrrrrrrrrr I figure if the the Nox is capable of something I should at least investigate ......finances say we're hitched for the long run so I'm sure I'll go back and investigate other tone options. Kinda reminds me of how I learned everything a effects processor did in my music biz "early days" I'm not there yet but I will be,,,,maybe skuh kuh kuh kuh kuh If I do get there ? Being here helped make it happen . THX to ALL of you ! Ooooie ( Yes it's a word , well at least it is uptah camp...Think of Oh, Ayuh... but with more feeling .) As always , YMMV aka "different strokes for different folks"

I'm sorry , you've exceeded your good find limit for this year..... All new finds will have to be sent to me until Friday at midnight !!😜

Good lookin' coins. Like someone dropped them yesterday ! (Possible evidence of recent time travel activity ?....)

So 5oz is a not terribly good year for you ? Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh If I rub your head , do you think some of that not terribly good would rub off on me ?😏 If you're not bald already , you will be when I get done !

I wish I could close out the year with a gold pic like that ! (I doubt anyone would want to see a picture of my small woodland creature with black fur and a white stripe on top ........)🙄

Welcome aboard Zincoln ! Hope that name isn't because that's all you find ! If so , hope you can change that name to Gold Ring soon .....
