oldies1955 Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Hey all: Welp, got out with Dad and a friend from work that just got a 4000.Took him into one of my super secret spots close to the aqua fria overpass on Glendale avenue.Had to take some extrodinary measures to make sure the spot remains a secret. What! I cut a breathing hole in it for him Well, dad is detecting around the truck and Ken and I walk over a couple of ridges and detect some tribs. He got some bullets and is getting used to the 4000, I got some junk and bullets.So, we find this little motorcycle trail and follow it over to the next trib. Ken is detecting the trail and found a penny and some other junk. I told him "yah, on roads and stuff like this your going to get a lot of junk" Well, I no sooner had the words out of my mouth and no kidding.....I look down and there is a GARMIN GPSMAP 62st laying there. Holy smokes! Guess if fell off some guy riding. Im sure he was bummed as its about a 230 dollar GPS. It works good. I tried to find a name or something in it but dont see anything. Well, none of us found any yellow stuff but had a real good time enjoying one of the last decent weekends were probably going to have for a while.Enjoy..Tom H.

Admin nuggethunting Posted April 28, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hey Tom, Check the GPS for gold coords.!! Funny you mention GPS units. My mentor, Richard Doherty carried a GPS everywhere and marked every nugget for years. Sad to say, when he passed, his wife had a silent auction for all his prospecting stuff. I realized he has that GPS, called her right away, but it was just sold for $25 ...... NOOOOO!!! I would guess there was at least 100+ nugget patches, many I didn't even know about loaded in that GPS unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
