. This equals this but I agree!!!!!! Couple thousand in these buckets
 

I jumped out of work a bit early today and hit Reshaw park in Evansville. Pretty much the oldest part of the county. Old Oregon trail, Army fort. Figured it would be RIPE for the picking.

I think it has been worked over MANY times in the past. Some old shotgun and rifle shells, but other than that it was just trash.

Crazy, I had no clue there was activity over there that long ago. We've got one of the old crossings at the ranch that was no toll, they charged a toll at fort casper bridge. They tore out a bunch of the old wagon rutts when they were making highway 220 a divided highway east of goose egg restaurant. Should be a good weekend for some diggin!!

Did u check out that park I told ya about?
 

I didn't get up there. I was stuck on Evansville right across the field from Reshaw.

Ya, when the bridge was built, apparently the army sent out a contingent from fort Caspar to guard it. They were stationed there for a year or two.

I know that every time they build something out there, they run into old artifacts. Unfortunately, most of it is now private. When I was a kid, we used to hunt arrowheads all over there.

Don't get me started on Arrowheads!
 

I went up to the North Casper clubhouse for a few hours today. I did a real quick scan of 1/2 the park to see if anything jumped out at me.

Lots of good signals, but I only went after the one less than 8 inches deep. I found an old locket and some other older keys/coins/etc.

With time (it would take many hours of gridding that park), I bet some neat old treasures would pop out of the ground.

I don't think its been worked over, found a nice little spyderco knife last time I was there and a lot of deeper coins with old pull tabs. Wedding receptions and all kinds a parties have gone on there for decades, has to be some necter.

Ya, I noticed a LOT of deep signals. There is a large sprinkler/sewage system right behind the house, so that threw me for a min until I mapped it out. I actually found a buried junction box that they have probably been missing for years.

Coupled with the roots from all the trees, the deeper targets will take a little work to get to. I went down to about 8 inches, but not any deeper.

This is certainly a park where proper plug technique is a must. Very flat, short grass. Ugly cuts are going to show.

So typed a long post about last weekend, somehow I lost it before it went up.
condensed version, 5 wheats, a silver rosie and a merc. Also a buck or so in clad.

Glad everyone is getting out
 


U Found some oldies, nice.
I found some ear rings, clad, 50+ pulltabs and old deep pocket watch without inerds.
My next find is going to be a class ring, I can hear it " come dig me up, I'm hiding under this pulltab"

U can't hide all the holes, all that matters is that ya try
 

Well I haven't been on for awhile but since last time I bought a AT gold MD. I do live in Lovell Wyoming and have got a little but don't really no were I can go so any suggestions would be helpful. Looking for gold, coins, artifacts it don't matter just interested in finding anything but pull tabs.

Your pretty far north of me in casper but cody ain't to far off..I build custom furniture and go there every year and the parks there look good to md. Ive found more gold in parks than out prospecting. Wish I knew more a bout your area, there's got to be artifacts around. Old sheepherder I know has the largest collection of Arrowheads I've ever seen and all came from around your area.
