Sourdough Scott Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Not prospecting related. But when out detecting this time of year, I always take a bucket, gloves and clippers. I bring as many home as possible to ensure my wife will make some great jellies to last until next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klunker Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Beware! Sourdough Scott is like an old sow bear. When he starts gathering an extra large amount of berries it means a hard cold winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be a heavy winter. Got down to 34° last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
