Detector(s) used
Minelab CTX 3030, Minelab E-Trac w/Sunray probe and 15' WoTcoil.
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
I went out today to meet someone who was going to show me some foundations. He directed me to the spot and I took a ride down the very muddy dirt road. I didn't have any intentions to detect but I always keep my back-up with me no matter what (my ace 250). I found one of the cellar holes took out the Ace and swung for about 5 minutes. Found a pull tab and about a dozen holes where someone else had been. Decided to head home. As you can see from the picture, I went left when I should have gone right. 4 hours and 300 bucks later I finally got it out. DFXwilly, I don't think we'll be going to this spot anytime soon.

Couldn't resist :laughing9:

Too long. I think it's time for a Subaru.
 

Don't you hate those big cellar holes.......Just kidding been there. Those tow truck drivers will rape ya all the time.
Hope your next hunt is better HH :coffee2:
 

When I saw that pic of your ride, it reminded me of a scene from a real strange movie from way back in the dat called "The Gods Must Be Crazy". The guy winds up accidentally winching his vehicle high up into a tree as I recall.

You'll laugh about this hunt one day! :wink:

And I would be buying a Wench for the front of this auto ! And the next time you could pay yourself to get you out . :)

Yeah I bet you were glad to be home from that trip .

Personally, I'd get a winch instead. I don't think a wench could get you out although you'd enjoy the wait for the tow truck a lot more, lol.

Befor cell phones I did the same thing while hunting for a logging camp. Got way back in the woods on a logging trail and drove until I didn't think the car could get through. I found the camp and hunted all day until I was exhausted, then came back and proceeded to bury the car in mud. After 5 hours of cutting brush with a jackknife to put ubder the tires I managed to get out. Not an experience I would recommend to anyone!
 

if your payin $300 for a pulltab.. i cut you a good deal...lol.. that sucks,thats a deep puddle.
 

Man, I need to post more awful things that happen to me while metal detecting. This thread got about 50 more posts than my finds usually do :D
