I think he,s misreading the ARPA I think it,s called.Lots of folks misunderstand that when trying to show how smart they are and all.Besides the chain is clearly welded twist link,modern as can be so no problem. Every tract of federal,or state land has it,s own rules depending on the agency in control and leanings of the local Kommissar in charge.

Yes, obviously modern chain. But I thought we put this to bed way back. But while on the subject, isn't it much better to leave artifacts in the ground to rot and rust away? Why would anyone want to rescue them and share that history with people? People can be so selfish. I am so glad we got the government to protect us from ourselves and insure artifacts can be destroyed without anyone having the pleasure of studying them and sharing them.
But I do always obey state and federal laws.

Ashamed all the wonderful artifacts we could be sharing with children and schools that are destined for destruction from decay.

Archeologists,legal grave robbers,stealers of public history.On the taxpayers dime.You get the drift.

I think maybe it's logger's chain used to tie down tree trunks on flatbed trucks.
The twisted slotted links look like they are designed not to slip or shift under load.

I had one of those once. Cute but they are nocturnal so keep you awake at night.

So serious question. Are artifacts from 1800s or earlier including the Civil War illegal to remove and thus protected?

It would be illegal if BLM or State or Federal land in some way. But I do not remember him saying that.

I believe the area he is talking about is in the Hood River National Forest.

I believe the area he is talking about is in the Hood River National Forest.

If so by law he should not collect artifacts.

 

[mdc002]

I could be wrong about the area he was in is in the National Forest, but it is very close. And by the way, I'm not trying to show "how smart I am."

Do you think it is illigal or wrong to dig relics/old items on private land?

I don,t know,if so he probably shouldn,t be there at all,but none of my business.

Close only counts in horseshoes and field artillery. Very close to a National Forest is way different than in a National Forest.

You should not have posted about collecting there being illegal if you did not know know the land status. It makes it appear you are against relic hunting.
