Pretty Good Day In Golden Gate Park!

[MT]

I met up with Nicasian (Chris) early this morning at Golden Gate Park with my E-Trac to do some hunting before the Hippies got up. Some were still asleep right where we wanted to hunt, and his bees were hard at work guarding the goodies. I knew enough to just let them bee.
We started hunting a spot that looked like it had been lawn at one time, but was now just dirt and weeds. The first good, and I mean good signal I got was a big 'ol 1944 Walking Liberty Half at about 6". Man, did it sound good. A bit later, I got a 1935S Merc and then a 1920S Merc.
This was the first Walker I have found with the E-Trac, and my first since about 2003.
Great day, and thanks Chris for showing me that spot.
Thanks for looking.

Hey MT,

Sure nice to see that BIG Silver still coming out of the ground. Getting to be a pretty rare event nowadays.

Everything I hear about GGP just sounds like a great huge place to work..but you got to avoid the obvious spots and hunt the outskirts it seems.

Nice silver finds. I thought the hippies left there in the 70's? Oh, they must have decided to stay and live there I see. Oh, The days of Hayht and Ashbury streets

Thanks so much for all the nice replies.

In April, my girlfriend took me to meet her family in Northern California. On the way to the airport, we drove by Golden Gate park. I was looking for detectorists, but didn't see any.
