Ghost Towns

[sobered91]

Is anybody here familiar with the laws regarding detecting in Ghost Towns?
Is it legal to detect in Ghost Towns that are run by the California BLM?
I would really appreciate it if someone would pass along their experience here.

Thanks
Ed

I could be wrong, but I think anything the BLM runs is off limits.

I think that you can detect all you want, just can't keep anything manmade that's over 50 years old (or is it 100yrs?). One of those federal antiquities laws. ...Willy.

not suppose to keep anything over 100 years old........wait............let me rephrase that................your not supposed to get caught keeping anything over 100 years old.
