    very decent job Steve ,nice merc . looks like our early morning drives to a site ( very dark outside ), but these guys think i'm going to a fire ( they complain i drive to fast ). at first i thought where did he get a white coil for that minelab lol but i personally like to detect in a light snow dusting you can really see your coil overlaps and where exactly you grid an area off . i have found some good items in between the footsteps in the snow , looking toward more videos Steve .

    Great video Steve! I have been hoping someone would take a video of finding and digging silver with the E-trac. congrats on the silver!

    Wow, totally dark early morning hours, and snowing. I'm impressed I went out on Friday morning at the same time in the same dark but no snow... 27 degrees.... if there had been snow on the ground though, I would have stayed in bed

    Re: Video of Todays Hunt

    Thanks everyone! I think next year I will try making some more vids if I get a better HD camera and a tripod to record the full digs. I have a feeling this park might hold a few more deep ones!
