Took The 6000 Out Yesterday

[brogansown]

Took the GPX 6000 out yesterday to the hills here in Eastern Oregon.  Despite the snow; frozen, but, in places muddy roads and a hip problem, just to say I got out.  The hillsides are bare, but the gullies have crusty snow, so I had to detect a hammered gulch with muddy ground.  I got a lot of signals, mostly shotgun pellets, bullets and fragments and of course, lots of square nails.  And like the previous "Smallest nugget" article, had over a dozen positive signals, that I just couldn't find in the mud.  Maybe they were pellets, or iron, but maybe a nugget.  Your articles inspire me, so thanks and good luck next year.

Good to hear you were able to get out there and work the hip a little.  Frustrating when not being able to recover those signals in mud and or frozen ground. Not my kind of style of detecting, but sometimes it's all about scratching that itch.
