Scoop time, hundreds of miles from the sea

[Billinoregon]

This is what the mighty Rio Grande looks like in winter here in southern New Mexico. No water and endless very dry sand. I tried detecting today and it was almost hopeless trying to get to a target that kept disappearing in the "angle of repose" as the sand kept refilling the holes. I think I need a sand scoop-- and probably a new X-Terra Elite or a Triple Score.
