I love AZ Sedona is beautiful driving down I 17 in flagstaff gives me goose bumps thinking about it plus the people are from all over and very friendly the weather is almost always sunny ghost towns treasure lore I lived near the superstition mountains in apache junction area people are still living out there looking for that mine. I dug trenches for conduit boy that ground was hard I needed a pick and a hose just to get started Hope to see some for goodies from you soon good luck!!!!!!

Up where it's cool!!! Head down to Phoenix around McDowell to Van Buren 75th ave to down town. In those parks you'll find live ammo in almost all the tot lots! We had a conversation and came to the conclusion it was from all the gang bangers dropping their ammo while hanging around the parks. Some of the area cops felt the same. Always got a little nervous picking up live rounds in the sand when it was 114+. My weirdest find was a handful of 9mm a screwdriver and a small pair of bolt cutters. No doubt what happened there!

Cool.. I remember my first bullet; .32 ACP. I think I was 12 or 13 , that's 30 years ago. I've driven across Arizona a few times and have seen many places along I10 that would be awesome to hunt.

Good luck.. keep us posted.
