Boy Scout camp found

I can't fit all the photos so going to add them 6 at a time

My father in law sits on 15 acres of woods. On this land back in the day was a old Boy Scout camp and a few homes.
I went to a map site and found old aerial from 1910-1994
The camp has been there till 1994 and tore down.

I know I found the camp and hunter a small area.
As for coins I found clad from 1965 to present I know there is silver there I will find it.

It's in thick woods so I started to fin ok bottle then this cool old cubs china dish. I found 2 silver spoons under it.

But take a look
 
I am pretty sure I found the camp but I think there might be a old homestead that I found as well. I found 3 silver spoons and 2 silver rings. I think I found some sort of shoe making device and a meat hook? I think I might have found a part of a old trunk.

but if anyone with info on my finds please help me.

On top of this I think I dug up 100 pull tabs and steel cans and I also found a bottle dump that I am heading to this weekend. I cant say how much I love the xterra 705 and randy your book helped me so much.
 
You could spend years hunting that piece of property. If I had access, it would become my new proving ground.
 
Oh wow, you got yourself a great place there to hunt. Like OLH said, you can hunt that place for years and keep finding things.

When it comes to woods hunting I have a lil tip for you, WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. If you already wear glasses then get those lil side shields to put on them. A few years ago I almost learned the hard way that it's best to wear safety glasses in the woods.
 
You've found an excellent spot there, keep at it and good luck for the future. Great finds so far! Love the cap-bomb ....seeing that old lead one brings back memories.
 
Nice location. I am working on getting access to an active Boy Scout camp that is several hundred acres.
Going about it by providing a find it service. Also looking at setting up a display of scout items found. What they dont want to display will be ours to keep.
