oldies1955 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Welp...........after battling the dern flu for the last 10 days I was finally able to get out with Dad and do some detecting.Went into some really nice spots that I had researched.Jammed the 4runner in as far as it would go and headed out.Found a lot of bedrock, nice flat areas of shist bedrock, and other seemingly good areas. But...to no avail. Came up with a royal skunk today.According to Google maps I did about 4 miles of washes. Man, got some nice sweet sounds in some shist bedrock, dug down, and it only turned up somespent 22 bullets. The area was reeeeeeeealy heavy in black sand and hot rocks. Had to run the 5G at 9 on the gain, fine, and 9 on the Stab.It was still a really hard area to hunt with pockets of black sand sounding off like a target, along with some really weird bedrock hitting hard that I chipped out....to find nothing. Anyhoo...on a good note, I was able to find those two half staples at 2 inches in that mess. How the heck did they get so far back in there?????All in all....it was a good day out with Pops and I was able to "tune" my ears a little more. Theres always next weekend!Tom H.
