Condor, your still way ahead of me, at least you can post pictures. Nice gold.

Interesting, I need to get out soon to use my 11'' , 14'' and 17''more before I can decide see what other coils I may need or want. I wonder if they will be camo colored?

F350, yes a diesel, my truck is a 16, I pull a 38 ft. toy hauler or can if fuel prices come back down. I paid off my truck as well a year or so ago. I added a 50 gal. fuel tank to my 8 ft. bed that also has a tool box on the top of the fuel tank. I too am retired about 2 years ago. Love that truck.

Some nice and some not so nice F350Platinum. Good luck on your next hunt. Hey, by the way, I could be called F350Lariat were I not msc.

Nice gold araqratgold, hope you find lots more.

This guy came prepared, a well done video, can't believe he set up a pool to catch rainwater, thanks for the link.

All I have to say is WOW. They need Gerry's 3 day training.

I had a local outfit ( Sugarhouse tent and awning )sew together a vinyl bag for my 5000 and 7000. I had them use the Minelab 5000 bag as a model but gave larger dimensions for both, they are rain proof and have a inside liner that softens any banging when handling. Large easy to use zipper that I chose . I can fit every coil option with out collapsing the detector including the 19 inch on the 7. I didn't think of hiding the fact that they would be very easy to be spotted and perhaps robed, just looking for my convenience and taking care of my valuable detectors. They cost "just" 200 appease. I am a little concerned that they look like a detector bag, too bad we have to be worried about that.

deathray, long time since you posted, don't be a stranger.

The dollar is in danger of loosing it's dominance in world financing of oil and other financing that really helps our economy retain the number 1 economy in the world. China Yuan may end up taking the place of the US dollar, which is what they are aiming for. China and Russia have been stockpiling gold for some years to ward off the possibility of US and world placing sanctions on their countries. There are things that the US can do to ward off this from happening.

Going to tent camp a lot this year, and who knows how long fuel price will remain this high, as long as fuel prices like they are I will leave my 38 ft. toy hauler behind. Good luck Reese.

maxxkatt, I have watched some youtube vids on folks finding bullets and other civil war objects in rivers, you may try checking some of them as they give advice on some of them. Good luck.

Sorry Nuggethunter70, never heard of them.

Nice going Reese, continued good luck, please keep up with your reports PS. I have a toy hauler but still tent camp a lot.

Not traveling from Utah a lot this year due to fuel prices but will hit the Bradshaw's once. Thanks for taking care of folks BMc, that's what a lot of the folks on this site do.

Bucksnboulders, I don't think you did. Clay is just stating the way things are, not necessarily how he feels about the ways things are, although he may. He has just the right to have his opinion and I will not slam him or anyone else for that. That is usually how the forum works.

Glen, some beautiful gold, thanks for sharing. Good luck this prospecting season.

Thanks Clay, I would love to be able to figure out how to use the site you set up, some kind of mental block I guess. I normally can figure out these things but so far not this. Regardless, I still believe claims should be marked, it's not that tuff. I belong to a club located in AZ that marks their claims very well, to me, every one can do the same. I/we spend time to find all of the claim markers on our claims before detecting. Some folks, if not many, do not have the resources or not the up-to-date knowledge of using modern tec. to check on-line or to go to regional BLM to check on current claims.

Time to start saving nickels, I have a lot of them in my " piggy bank ".

strick, your lucky to have a wife that likes metal detecting, she understands your passion.

Goldseeker, never have tried detecting around Meadview or even thought of it, thanks for the wake-up.

You and me both my friend.

Yea, even the grains.

According to ICMJ, gold has just broke the 2K threshold, $2057. I'm sure it will be up and down for a while.

Did you say something?
