I traveled over an hour south to escape the frozen nightmare I live in but well worth the drive.I scored 8 buttons and two large cents.Thanks to everyone that suggested the elliptical Hf It’s amazing.
This is the good the bad and the ugly

Well done!

Of course many will want to know what frequency, program and settings were used?

Don't forget to include GPS coordinates!:laughing7:

Nice saves! Yeah, XP knocked it out of the park with the new HF coils. And did so again more recently with the v4.1 update.

that could slow you down somewhat. last week our rain total from two locals amounted to 17 1/2 inches of rain. both men recorded that much in their gauges and I don't know how much we have received since then but it was a lot. no fire ban right now for sure! But, for you, you have a new spot that you have only scratched the surface of. So you have something awesome to look forward to and you have already found things a lot older than I have here. So you have lots of time to reflect on what worked for you.

Awesome finds! I was looking forward to finally getting some digging in this weekend if things were thawed out a bit but sounds like they will now be covered in snow...

Great job on some great recoveries!
