In this video Garrett and I find an undiscovered 1850s military camp along the Oregon Trail from an important moment in American history. This took many many hours of research to find and we are proud to save the historical record of the site. - Розваги
What an epic site! So glad we were able to find it and document it!
you need a rabbit foots mic, that wind noise sucks.
Congratulations to you and Garrett. Your research and diligence paid off in a big way. That has to be so satisfying. Great video!
Thanks man! This definitley was one of the most satisfying hunts we've had in a long time
One of my most favorite UA-camrs. Thanks for the recent uploads
Thanks man! I've been excited to post this one for a while
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting question. As a 17 year old history enthusiast that has been detecting for 10 years, how do you find all these old site and locations. Been dying to get to some civil war, mid 1800s sites. Never been before.
Exciting update! The presence of Rose number [306] embodies the spirit of collaboration within our creative garden here at Cointales. Let's keep cultivating this shared space together! 🌹🌷🌼 Thank you for being a vital part of it! 😊💖
Hello, "Gooooo WILDCATS"!!! Great finds, for sure! Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 😇🙏👊
Thanks Randy! God bless!
Awesome site and finds!
Thanks!!
You two hit the Jackpot!! Congrats to both of you! Hope to see more from this area again. God bless!
Thanks Tracy! We are still hoping there are a few items left to find. This was only a one-night camp but with how many people were there there was still a lot to find
Nothing like finding virgin camps!! Congrats on your finds! Love how you thank the Lord. He has blessed me with so many wonderful finds as well ❤
Thanks so much!! What part of the country do you detect in?
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting I live in Tennessee, but I've detected in Virginia, North Carolina, Mississippi and Louisiana. Its been my passion for twenty years 😊
Great hunt you two. I have a civil war era site I’m chasing. Haven’t located it yet. Found only a couple of fired round balls, a bullet, and a solid canister shot in the presumed area but not the site yet. Sweet find. Unrelated 1883 seated today so I’m stoked!
Thanks man, congrats on the seated and I hope you find that civil war site!
Congrats guys!! All the hard work paid off! Incredible! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks! I'll never forget stumbling onto those first few bullets after hours and hours of trying to find this place!
What an amazing site y’all found!
Thanks man!!
Great stuff; exciting to see, certainly more exciting to dig. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for stopping by!
Man oh man oh MAN! What a fantastic site! J hooks not bent wonky, bullets not chewed by pigs, low grass to boot, and the sky high feeling of what the site may hold. Congratulations!! What a feeling!!!!
Thanks! This was that site I told you about a couple months ago where I said I wasn't sure if 1000 soldiers for one night would lose a lot if stuff. Apparently they did!!
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting don’t know how I didn’t see this till now! I don’t check these messages enough!! AAARRGGHHH I’m turning elderly!!!!!!!!!
That was fun to watch. Remarkable number of unique finds. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Gary!

Thanks for taking the time to put this together, it was good to travel along with you guys on your hunt
This is very exiting.. Cheers bro! COnrgatulations... Love your passion about detecting, and history.. we understand that too, and we try to put our fun, joy and passion into our videos...
Big cheers from metaldetecting couple from southern Europe!
Great job! And awesome finds! Keep’em coming!
Thanks so much!!
Wow you guys rock. Awesome job at locating this camp. I see smiles from ear to ear good job
Thanks so much! I wasn't able to talk about it in the video but this campsite has a huge story behind it historically, so we are glad to have saved the finds and hopefully do a presentation on it at an OCTA conference at some point.
Awesome Awesome hunts fellas!!! Barely scratched that site, I bet there’s still a ton of finds there still to come! Can’t wait to see them! Congratulations on well done research as well! If ya need an extra hand just holler at me lol I’ll come running 🏃♂️
Thanks man I appreciate it!!
Didn’t know Garret was a k state fan! I’m alumni. I live in central KS and do a lot of detecting around here. Never had the opportunity to detect the Oregon trail however. Great finds
I’m closer to the Santa Fe Trail
@@coltersilhan6454 Nice! I've only dug on the Santa Fe Trail once but I live in more eastern KS where the SFT has been hunted heavily by people.
Being a fellow Kansan, I can only imagine your Oregon trail field is close to Leavenworth. Prob a little North.
Good resrarch
Awesome finds!!! Are you guys in Wyoming?! If you ever are and want to detect some fields on the Oregon Trail. Let me know. I’d love to detect with you guys!
Thanks! This was not in Wyoming although I have been out there before. Do you live in Wyoming?
FANTASTIC site guys!! Love seeing when you guys post a new vid as I know it’s always gonna be an epic episode! Research, research, research pays off
Thanks man appreciate you stopping by!
That's definitely a dream of mine...hunting the Oregon trail. Congrats on the site and the finds!
Thanks! Do you live near any stretch of the Oregon Trail?
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting I'm in southern Ohio. Some of the oldest settlements in Ohio here, late 1700s, which I'm fortunate to be able to detect but I love all that military stuff you all find. I find some civ war stuff but pretty sparse.
Some good finds, Guys.
Thanks!
That was one great video. I like how you tell what your "find" is. I never heard of a " J-Hook" before. The Trime and Half dime was the coolest "find" I just subscribed..Good Luck and Take Care.
Thanks Gary! Welcome to the channel and I appreciate you subbing.
You are welcome.
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting
Way to go guys! I have just received permission on two ghost times along the Sd border.
Awesome Bob! I need to come up there sometime
Giving thanks to God!! Love to see that.
Me too!
Sooo cool!
Good job, fellas ❤❤❤
Thanks so much!
What a day . I think you are in Kansas? All good man what a day . Blessings
What a wild video. I dug a Dragoon cuff button in Vermont last Year 2023.
Nice! I would assume those are pretty rare to find on the east coast since the Dragoons were the frontier soldiers.
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting for sure. Probably made homestead here after the war was over. General Robert's lived in my town.
Amazing
Thanks for watching!
Outstanding finds and location guys!!! What a great haul. Your research paid off big time. 🙏🤞👍
Can I ask what detectors you are using?
Thanks, Doug in NC
Thanks Doug! I am using a Minelab Equinox 600 and Garrett is using a Minelab Equinox 700
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting Love your videos. Great energy and you cover a lot of states.
I just bought a new Manticore. I’ve never had a detector with a screen. I’ve always used Tesoro and loved them, but I wanted to see what all of this hi tech was about. Huge learning curve I bet. Keep the great videos coming. 👍
Epic!
Thanks!
why didn't you do the Trime in the wrap up video.
Because it was from the week before that hunt and we didn't have it on hand
Impressive discovery, sorry I dug all the gold coins and rifles...
Really, down near the stream in a chest, with bunch of buckles and pistols...
reearryy ! ;-)
Lol...thanks for stopping by!
@@GreatOutdoorsDetecting Not in hand yet... Manticore that is. However, Thank You for discount code at Myron's site.
I used discount to save me a days worth of labor based income, and 18 month 0% interest CC. Never fell in love with the Equinox 800 like I did the E-Trac. Barely used it, and will sell the Nox right after Manticore arrives. Maybe my E=Trac as well... maybe ;-). I wish you a season of enjoyable and rewarding detecting, Andrew.
@@143DREWID Awesome man glad to hear you were able to use the discount! I agree I used the Etrac for years and it’s still my favorite machine for coin hunting, the main reason I use the Nox now is because it is super light weight and I do a lot of walking at these trail sites so it makes it easier. Hope you find some great stuff with the Manticore
Go KS
wildcats!
what did they do sew cuff buttons on with the cheapest thread available?? 😂
I know its crazy how these buttons seemed to be falling off their clothes left and right!
