Hi came home from a few errands and when I got out of the car the sun was shining, it had warmth in the air and it felt like hunting weather! I check in my yard where most of the snow is gone, my digger went into the ground with little resistance. So I grabbed my stuff went to an old school where I had found silver a couple months ago. When I pulled up wow what a difference it looked like a shot of Alaska. There were a couple of open spots so I decided I came this far I am not turning back. Hit an open spot first and turned up a clad dime. Well if I stuck to the open spots I would not really get much hunting so I took off into the snow field. I got a very good nickle signal 11-13 12-13 solid both ways and it said depth 6 inches well maybe its a keeper I thought. After clearing the icy snow off and digging inch by inch I got ...a clad nickle! While I was searching in the snow field I notice the snow had melted and refroze leaving an icy surface on it. My coil slid across it so effortlessly I thought about the Curling in the Winter Olympics and I hoped my "Stone" would land in the sweet spot! Well I got a memorial then it started getting dark and colder so I headed home. This was my first experience in snow hunting and my first in "Coil Curling"
