Dont think it's even possible without a pickaxe.

I was out last weekend, checked out a new spot with tons of potential. and did some beepin around.....found some military stuff from the 50's, checked into a lumber camp and ghost town close by, eager to go back, but not till spring.

I didn't mind the cold, but the ground was frozen, and we just got 4 inches of snow.

Hey Toecutter I’ll go if you pick me up. I’m in Niagara Falls. I hunt beaches here all winter. I’ll be ready to go and have hot coffee for ya.

Should mention I saw a first yesterday! It was 27 degrees here yesterday and I saw some guys trying to lay sod outside a newly remodeled Kroger store. Pretty sure the roots aren't going to take with frozen ground, but felt bad for the guys. They were trying to warm up in their vehicles...

I tried on the 19th, it was sunny, 38 degrees and rising, the ground was soft enough, but the snow was crusty and frustrating, I got by. Found a few ferrous targets that left me hopeful for the site.

Tried again at another place on the 20th. It was snowing, raining, 31 and dropping. Miserable and no fun at all.

Now there's 6 inches of snow, with a warming trend in the forecast. But I'm done till spring. A lot more fun when it's at least warmish out there.

Welcome to research season.
