After work went gold rush relic hunting but just came back with a you tried reward. Black power container lead cap. It's something I guess.

Congrats on the piece of history!
Now was someone shooting or busting rock with your recovery?
Big old exposed vein of gold...

That's a very cool relic, liking it. Well dug John
Never dug anything even like it around these parts.

I had to change tactics to find it. Too much tin roofing in the little site I found. So I reduced sensitivity to 89 and reactivity ro max. Since going deep wasn't going to be a thing anyways the reactivity high was a better call in said situation. Went slow and it came in clear amongst the tin

Good plan, the tin can really be a pain at a site.
I have a couple of places with shallow tin cans, but the good targets are 6-10" down so it's a dig and get rid of the tin option.
The church site on a private permission, the tin litters 50' around the building. But everything is in the tree roots, so it's a real pain to dig it up. The bugs are slowly killing off the trees which in this case I'm liking the tree killers.

Always have to adjust per site and area I've learned it and the D2 is a great machine to do it with

Unless a miracle happens this frozen world of mine will remain that way for another 3 months now.
I might try on our Boxing say to get out for a bit, not sure if the ground will be thawed enough.
The weather 43F on Christmas, then 46F on Tuesday.
The bush might be still soft under the layer of leaves.

It's prime detecting time for here. Ground is damp and not too hot. Can actually dig out in the good areas

I get to live through the screen for 3 months longing to get out.
The itch is pretty bad by spring for the need to dig.
Then it will take a few hunts to get the ears tuned up again.

Now summer here it gets tough far too hot and the ground gets way to hard in most areas
