Jeff,
Thanks for your response back.
I presently live near Dallas, Tx., I am retired (Early retirement),
I do spend alot of time researching, and traveling for metal detecting. (been detecting for over 25 years).
I am planning a trip to Nevada, this coming summer for about 2 weeks. I will E-Mail you before I come there, I normally hunt alone, but it would be good to hunt together, some places I am researching now, for the possibility of gold.

Good luck to you till then, in MD'ing.


Johnny

Hi Zack
Thanks for the reply. You're too far way for a weekend. I live in Reno which is 8 hour drive.
I think BLM has some regulations on metal detecting etc. You might want to check it out.
However, I don't think the regs are ever enforced. I like detecting for gold nuggets, going to
old mine sites and dumps. The old timers left alot behind. Simply didn't have the technology.
Here's my e-mail...contact me thru it and we'll discuss more.
