So much fun exploring and finding these old treasures of our historic past! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas and Heavy Pans!
Tim is a great guy!
Indeed ! 👍
Those old-timers were tough dudes. Imagine trying to eek out a living in the middle of nowhere ? Glad you found a couple nuggets. Keep at it and good luck next year ! 🤠⚒️⛏️👍
Have a great 2024 Allan , Happy New Year !
Nice hunting. Never detected out that way before. Nice historical find btw! Talk to you next week!
Its a very peaceful place to hunt ....Sounds good Bill
Found some nice chunks along the old wagon trail road between Phoenix and Wickenburg. Those guys were tough in the 1800s. Nice video
Cool pictures of bighorn sheep, you guys are living the good life
Found an Apache arrowhead in our campsite at the bottom of a canyon in Greenlee County. Almost as exciting as a nice hit. It will stay here, but locked up in our camper.
Nice job spotting them artifacts and snagging a bit of gold!
💪🕵🏻♂️
Thanks 👍

I was watching the episode where you found the meteorite. You seem lost and depressed without Boulderdash! You need to get back with him or find another partner cuz I'm starting to feel sorry for you Adam LOL. Keep making the great video's bud
Looks like a turtle-back or dome scraper. Or an exhausted core. Great video, as always. Thanks for putting it together.
Fascinating ! Thanks for the info 👍⛏⛏
Those old trails are the best spots to detect! I’m drooling over that! 😂 honestly though all the traffic on those trails for years there’s bound to be treasure along it
You know whats funny, I didnt even think to detect the road for coins or something else cool. I may pay a visit with the Gold Bug 2
Go up to Pinal by Superior the wagon tracks are 3 inches deep cut into the rock
Thats cool !
As a kid back in the 50’s, I visited my uncle’s farm in near Walla Walla. He showed me the wagon track of the Oregon Trail. It crossed a corner of a field and he left it untouched. The tracks were still 6 inches deep a hundred years after they’d been laid in the soft clay soil.
Happy to see another video with the both of you in it! Thanks for taking us along again!
Glad you stopped by !
Most of the wagon road in the desert southwest.will show wheel ruts .where the steel rims on the wooden wheels cut into the rock.Great example on the white cliffs trail in Kingman Arizona.
This road went to a prospect/ mine and was no more than a 1/4 mile long . Probably was not used for very long.
Saw your guest appearance with jeff williams this morning. Boulder dash and his pile of gold lol. At yhe spot i wont speak on again haha i moved my Op to socal at a very special historic spot in the hills. Nice buttery nugs.
That was boulder dash on Jeff Williams video , not me. As for the property, its Private land ...Thanks for stoppin by !
Looks mighty familiar to a Yuma boy. That's the vegetation I grew up with.
Good to see you guys back at it. Hike farther dig deeper 👍🇺🇸⚒🍀🍻
Wow, that is interesting👍👍👍.
Thank's for showing this 🙂
Thanks for watching!
Great job guy's! Get out there and find RDM and I some new stomping grounds.😁
It would be nice to see more gold but still a great video.
Agreed
The Spanish were active in this area in the 1600s - early 1700s prospecting for / mining precious metals - mostly silver. Probably a trail for hauling ore
I believe you are correct, as it ends at a couple prospects
Still cool.
Fun adventure! I think you need to detect every square inch of that road to see what relics were lost as they traveled! Shouldn’t take long…🤔 That arrow was definitely Spanish, you can tell from the footprint next to it in the sand. They only had the best military boots for traveling. Anyway, good to see your video pop up while I am sitting here on a rainy morning drinking coffee, and planning my next trip to Arizona!
Ha ha , thanks so much for tuning in ! ⛏️
nice little blade core you found
I will have to look it up. Thank you so much for the information.
It's definitely a core. I am sure everyone knows exactly what that is, but just in case, it it what is left after taking flakes off of a rock. They were small flakes too, but given the type of rock and where it was found, there aren't many suitable rocks of much size to make large tools and points out of.
Another cool video. I am Superstitious as well. I will not take anything crafted by an individual Native. I lived on the site of a Hohokam village in Tempe years ago. My room mate told me how she was being watched. Rightfully so, lol. My mother stayed with me for a month and described exactly the same entity that i had seen several times. My daughter told me of Big Dolly who said mean things to her. 3 year old children do not make this stuff up with accurate descriptions. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for sharing! I got enough problems as it is, to ad native spirits, would send me over the edge 🤣
Happy New Year Y'all, and best wishes for the coming year.
Thanks so much
My wife has Muscular Dystrophy. I'd be in Arizona now if I could. I'm afraid I'll meet my maker before I'll ever have the chance. Just have to let you guys help fill my interest in prospecting till then.
Happy New Year !
happy holidays
Happy holidays!
Doesn’t matter if you have away the location if you guys didn’t find much I certainly wouldn’t find any lol nice adventure and cool road thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼 p.s. good to see you dragged boulderdash away from his mother load (he probably complained and said he could have gotten more at his claim right 😂)
Yeah its just peanuts to boulder dash 🤣 Cant wait to spent some more time out west ⛏️⛏️
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK - boulder dash must be pretty hard core, won't even take you to the good stuff. Or at least let you video it, lol. Smart guy(s).
You may have found a Spanish road from the 1600s going to the gold fields. They mined up in Utah and god only knows where else.
The road does go to a mine , maybe I’ll check it out !
Thanks for stopping by
the way i do it backpack. mark my spot (gps). go wonder with my gold monster. got a crusher off craigslist $35. see if i can find the rhyolite i saw there. have a good day.
If you had to pick one detector between the gold bug 2.. And the gold monster.. For nugget shooting in Arizona which one would you pick?
Thats the toughest answer ever......I`ll go with the Minelab Gold Monster and heres why.
* Dont neet headphones
* comes with 2 coils and rechargable battery
* Hits on smaller nuggets deeper
* Ease of use
* handles hot ground slightly better
The gold monster definitely has its pitfalls but thats my answer
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK I appreciate the response especially considering the amount of mineralization West of Phoenix near tonopah az. I have 40 acres out there I picked up. I'm used to dredging and open pit as well as hard rock under ground.. So between dry washing and detecting for the first time. This will be a learning curve.. Tyvm again keep up the amazing videos. Any input on equipment feel free to pass on your knowledge..
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK that 40 acres I have is literally a stone throw from the old vulture mine.
@@toddbuettner3956 could be really good ground out there. Best of luck, and the gold monster is a great choice.
I like your videos. I want to join a gold prospecting club in the Wickenburg, AZ area. Could you recommend one? Thank you!
Maybe look in to the Arizona Association of Gold Prospectors or perhaps the Gold Fever Adventures might work for you too. They both have modest yearly fees
Kinda wondering what youse guys are doing where the gold isn't, hmmmm..🤣
Wrong Turn 👍😁
Sheep's? 😅
🤣🤣
Probaly spainish then again it could be the yellow brick road 😂
🤣⛏️
