TimC (North Alabama) · Feb 14, 2011

Was born Saturday the 13th at Dodge City Travel Center. I think we decided to meet next month at Top Hat Barbecue, but not sure of the date yet although it will be on a Tuesday or Saturday night. What ever y'all think.
I will get a roll of tickets and some door prizes donated to give away. :thumbsup:

Yep, I really enjoyed seeing everyone too, it's always fun to talk shop. Roy checked yesterday and found out the smith lake park owns Clarkston Covered bridge and that it's free to hunt as is Sprotsman Lake, Smith Lake park and beach.

Nana40 · Feb 15, 2011

Yes! I had a fun time too! Was great to see everyone. :hello:

I look forward to the next get-together!!!

Y'all still getting together?

Kent in AL · Jan 16, 2012

Yes. We tried to Sunday the 8th but the rain stopped us. Someone will suggest a hunt on this board, usually TimC, Nana40 or Chefman and see who's interested. Sundays seem to work best for folks. Just keep an eye on this board.

Me and Donna are safe but Donna's old stomping grounds got hit pretty bad.
Thanks for thinking about us.

Hi,

I'm a hunter from Milwaukee, recently moved to AL. I spent the last 2 years working on Byron Preiss' "The Secret" and now since I had to leave that hunt after some extenuating circumstances (I believe I had a 100% solution and even permission to dig out the casque) I want to find something else to take my mind off the loss. I seem to have a knack for doing the book hunts, but I wanted to move on to bigger and better things. I know there is a lot of buried gold and valuables in north AL, in addition to all the legends. I was just looking for a group of people to team up with and share the adventures and passion for treasure hunting.

SilverDreams · Sep 22, 2015

I had never heard of The Secret before. Sounds really interesting. I would love to get together with some folks in North Alabama for some hunting whenever we can find the time.

The Secret is a book hunt from 1981, Byron Preiss, eccentric and book publisher buried 12 porcelain treasure casques in 12 different cities across North America and wrote a book with illustrations and verses to lead you to the burial sites. The author died in 2005 and only 2 casques have been recovered to this date.
