    1818

    Mike and I got out for a few hours this morning. Happy to come home with this deep 1818. We we're digging a lot of 6" clad. Got this iffy 10"deep hit with the M6 and 6x10 setup. Looked sweet coming out of the hole!
    We also talked to a few locals and obtained some future private property hunts.
