Hunting in the mountains

[steve in so la]

the White Mountain resort area that is. We spent the last 4 days there - about 4 hours and 25 degrees away. How nice & cool it was !
Anyway, I dug about 200 coins, a skinny silver ring and set a new record for live bullets from one site. Three were within 1 foot of each other and the 4 th was about 20 ft away.These 4 came from an elementary school play things area.
How things do filter down to the kids, steve in so az

In this day and age I probably shouldn't be surprised but bullets in a children's play area? That's almost unbelievable. Just imagine if a child had found them by mistake? Thanks Steve for digging them up, disposing of them and making the children's area safe again.

Nice little pile of finds that you brought back to the desert Steve.

I haven't found any in a while, but I've picked up quite a few from the beach.... Really scary when you find them in a playground.

Must have been nice digging where it was 25 degrees cooler! What was it down to? 85 degrees?

Not too bad here after a COMPLETE month of rain in June. I thnk there were only 4 or 5 days when it didn't rain.... something like that. Not much detecting for me

Joe - Was about 87 for the highs. We sure could use some rain in the desert, life just doesn't even out for all Steve
