Hello all,
I am a total rookie, however this is something I've wanted to get into for a long time. My wife and I just got a cabin in the South Lake Tahoe area, and I was hoping for some help putting a checklist together to get the right gear. I'm mostly going for relics, Coin hunting, and gold and primarily on dry land, what detector would you recommend for the ground up there? I know there's a lot of granite and other minerals in the ground. I'd like to spend $500 or less, as I'll only be able to get out a few times a month. Any other gear that's must have?
Also has anyone hunted the sierra foothills? I'm up in the Twin Bridges area, although I'm happy to travel, I've got a 4x4 and willing to adventure out.
Thank you for any help and advice.
