I've read somewhere on the posts where they say that parks from the 60's on up are a waste of time.
Here are my finds from last evening and the day before. Short, 2.5 hour hunts surprised me but again can't emphasize enough about studying the maps.
This park at one time had a couple dozen homes on it then demolished sometime in the 50's. It was closed to the public til early 70's.
I think it was used as a Boy Scout Campground during the time it was closed. I dug up a few vintage scout tie clasps.
Then a '44 Merc, '56 Rosie and a 1910 Wheatie.... shucks!!!! One year away from the Indian Head.
Working in small square patterns and in small sections at a time has increased my finds and I'm find it with although I don't cover huge amounts of ground.
I'm gonna be pounding this park since it is so close to home.
I hope the Safari newbies are reading these forums.
