Tim,
I would love to go , but my dector doesn't discriminate out cans and pop tops very well. ( or I can't operate it ) I can assure you, there are hundreds there. That has been a drinking site for as long as I can remember. Also, better be packing for two legged critters. Last time I was there ( years back) unsavory characters were living there!! If you can get a big enough crowd it will probably be safe enough!!

Hey Tim, I missed your note about the bottle hunt. I had relatives at the house anyway. The Bangor cave hunt sounds promising, I'll put it on the calender.....George

So you wanna hunt Bangor cave, huh? :icon_pirat: Well...we were out there hiking about a month ago, and someone had candles lit in the cave. :icon_scratch: It's pretty creepy out there to me, but maybe if a bunch of folks will go it wouldn't be too bad. I'd stay away from the main entrance just because of all the bottle caps that Kiln spoke of. It's pretty trashed. :-\ I'll try to make it out there if you're still planning on going.

Hey Tim,
I would love to meet up and hunt at the cave with you. I work this weekend but will be off next weekend if you want to make plans to do it. If you decide to, count me in.
