Thanks Guys , I am having a ball, I had almost forgotten how relaxing this was.
The coin in the geo cache was a 1883 victoria half cent J found, really cool, I might
just have to learn to use my Garmin and hunt up a few

And coinnut, if I were in your territory I would be looking for your colonial coppers

Nice post Terri, and I like the old dime.

Nice to meet up with a fellow hunter.

That's few and far between around here.

Thanks for the pretty pics,

I thought there was no swearing here? WINTER is a dirty word It robs us of our sanity and gives us cabin fever. It steals away our promise to ourselves of doing winter research (ya right!). I hate the fact that I can't detect in the winter!!! Ahhhh, who am I kidding , I was stupid enough to detect all but 2 Saturdays all of last winter. But you are right, it is a bit chilly lately HH

 

[echostar61]

Oh, You are so right, WINTER is a Very Dirty Word . You are gonna
have to make us a video " How to detect comfortably in SNOW "

Terri

 

[coinnut]

No video needed. All you need is one stupid person, some snow and lots of hot coffee, and presto, you have all winter to detect. Kidding aside, I did find a couple of nice relics last winter, made possible only because it was a mild winter and the forest leaves keep the ground from freezing. I do remember using the old hatchet, right around late January / February. This year I don't think I will be so lucky. Soooooooooo I guess I'll have to do some research.

See,if you lived in Oregon,on the coast all you would have to do is dodge the rain drops for 5 to 6 months.
