Ray (Kray) made is annual trek up north and probably realized mine and Dave's M.O. for most of our hunts. This was the 4th time Ray hunted with us and has probably learned by now that he should always expect Dave and I to arrive late and be prepared for a long grueling hike He's most likely going to avoid us in the future which is probably a wise decision
First site we searched was a bust as we did not find a cellar hole that we were expecting to be there. The second site we lined up already had two other detectorists hunting there. The two Gary's from this forum had beat us to the punch but it was nice chatting with them regardless.
We finally made it to the 3rd site we had lined up as a back up. Dave and I had been there once before and it was very good to us so we felt it was well worth another go. I am happy we did even though targets were very scarce. I knocked one off the bucket list with my 1st Half Dime(1858 Seated). My only other notable find was a beat up 1875 Injun. Happy Holidays all
