I just wanted to share this with you all. people are right on in this forum, and you should ask for permission on grounds as much as you can. this being said , i was recently spending some time with my mom and pop at there house, this doesnt seem like much but..... my father happens to be on the city council.... what does this have to do with what i am goin to tell you??? you shall soon see. as most of you know i live in wyoming not really known for its gold , but more of a coal state for the railroad in the old days. here is the exciting news.... i live in what is known as butch cassidy country , as a matter of fact i live in evanston wyoming, and butch cassidy and his gang tried to rob our bank, dint get away with it but, still they tried.
heheh, i am getting to the good stuff, ...... anyways lots of history here, and i checked the antiquity laws here with the local archeologist, and anytyhing over 50 years old is concidered illegal to take, that is fine, becuase it doesnt pertain to privately owned property, i dont mind that, cux i have recently been given permission to md on 80 acres of land owned by a near by town here. and on top of that, we have several parks near a river that people use to do some camping and such, in all total dealing with the city council and such i estimate i have written permission to md on about 140 acres of land. and the council has sent me maps of the areas also, all in all, as much as a pain in the rear as it is to find out about the local laws and lands, i do emplore you to be friendly with your city council and the like, granted i have an in , and live in a fairly small town of about 30, 000 people , but if you look at the broader picture, with 140 acres of written permission and the history of my local area, and the possiblity of the stuff i could find, i think i have been givin a gift that most people that are in to this hobby would love to have. and btw, it is out of the eye of the public also for the most part.
anyways , just wanted to share this with all of you , i still have 2 ft of snow on the ground here, and am anxiously awaiting the day i can go out and start using my machines (btw i own 2 QDII and havent been able to use them yet.)
Happy hunting and good luck to you all,

most of these areas are usually on the boundary of the coal deposits. HH regards Nugget.
