I've been detecting at cellar holes since around the end of 2013 and I still have yet to ever see another detectorist (who I wasn't hunting with) in the woods at the same time or even see one putting his gear away on the side of the road. Of course the signs are always there, holes not filled in, iron piles, even a leftover root cutter and sometimes even water bottles. I know a lot of other people detect in RI and it's just strange I've never bumped into another detectorist other than at a park. It's weird cause I've seen other detectorists twice while detecting in CT. Just wondering how often everyone else sees other detectorists in the woods
