Welcome Fuzz!

There are a lot of choices depending on your budget, where you want to detect (land, river, beach, lake) and what you want to find (coins, jewelry, relics, gold).

Entry level machines run $200 (Fisher f2 , Garret Ace 250) / mid level machines $600-700 (At Pro/At Gold) / high end run $1500-2500 ( whites V3i, Mielsb Etrac, Minelab CTX 3030.

The Garrett At Pro is popular because its priced well and is waterproof.

Call me if I can help you with your decision.

Depends on the type sites you plan to hunt and the type targets you are after . Example : a ghost townsy "ruins" type of site. may use one type of detector . While another type site you might want a machine which excells at turf (depth & TID). So you need to be a little more specific than just "in the mountains".

these guys have alot more experience then i do , but i can agree with Tom, if you are looking for minerals that would be different then looking for coins and relics. searching in mountain streams is different then dry land.
so a little more detailed info would help.
