  • Some recent metal detecting hunts on the Oregon Trail over the past few months. Also at 0:50 I meant to type Cavalry and not Calvary, I wasn't paying attention to the fact that I misspelled that, but I can't go back and change it now.

    When I think no less than 6 sets of great grandparents passed close by to your finds, it gives me pause. My people passed by there from 1843, 1847, 1852, 1853 en route to the Willamette Valley of Oregon.

      Thanks Tony I appreciate that, I had such a great time with you guys in Colorado last year and I love those frontier military sites you have out there as well. Looking forward to what else you guys find out there once the season starts up again

    I've only been in the plains one time and it was unbelievably windy. So for you to say "it's a little windy" to me says that if that wind stopped the cows would only stumble a bit and not fall completely over as they would if it was really windy and the wind suddenly stopped!

    • @GreatOutdoorsDetecting
      @GreatOutdoorsDetecting  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks Ken! There’s got to be a hat badge in Colorado like that where you guys hunt....I think of those cross sabres Tony found which would have possibly been off of a hat with that badge

    The Minie ball at about 9:41 seems to be from a breechloader, probably a carbine, and looks to be fired (I think I saw rifling cut into the side of the bullet). Also I think the base is too thick to have been forced into the rifling just from the force of the black powder exploding when it fired. If the site is pre-civil war it would be an early use of a breechloader.

    When are we getting new videos from you, Zach - coin hunts preferred?

  • @gregkerr725
    @gregkerr725 2 роки тому +1

    That hook looked like the one on the end of a strap which attached to the Spencer carbine and then to the trooper so the guy wouldn't lose it while on horseback. Maybe that's what it is.

    • @GreatOutdoorsDetecting
      @GreatOutdoorsDetecting  2 роки тому

      Thanks Greg! Yeah I talked to my friend Garrett about it a while back when I first dug it and I think that’s what he mentioned as well

    Zack, you should check out the book the great Platte River Road by Merrell J. Mattes. The beginning of the book has several maps Of the routes used from Independence to Laramie. You might find some interest in that one. Check out your local library.

    Not much into the vintage militaria - you've seen one musket ball you've seen them all - but the trime was nice. Hope you have more videos coming with coins-only finds in them.

    • @GreatOutdoorsDetecting
      @GreatOutdoorsDetecting  2 роки тому

      Sorry to hear you don’t enjoy these videos as much. Not sure how many coin only hunts I’ll have coming up but with any luck I’ll keep finding coins on the trail

    All the hoover boys should get equal pay metal detecting. Plus promotion for Separate channels. Bottles, arrowheads, estate sales or whatever they are into. They all deserve it.

    I zoomed in on the Trime.
    It said "Made in China" on the edge... really it did.
    Amazing to find the needle in a haystack, trime in a field.
    Mine have been in yards near roads. Fields are slightly daunting out west.

    • @GreatOutdoorsDetecting
      @GreatOutdoorsDetecting  2 роки тому +1

      Lol, trimes really do feel like play money like they would be made in China when you see how tiny and flimsy they are

    I have a strange question. Have you dug on trails that the pioneers traveled west? And if so have you ever accidentally dug up a grave in the middle of no where? So many died on the way west. There weren’t cemeteries. So it was bury them along the trail. That was all they could do. Thanks

    • @GreatOutdoorsDetecting
      @GreatOutdoorsDetecting  2 роки тому +1

      Good question. I have never knowingly dug up a grave but I’m sure I’ve walked by tons of them on the trail. I know one spot on the trail near a site I hunt where they supposedly buried 50 Mormons

    Enjoyed your show EXCEPT for your constant use of the word "cherry" I found it somewhat offensive. Please try and find a different word, for instance , "stellar" "pristine" or "mint" . I hope you don't find my suggestion as offensive as I found your ,what I considered juvenile male vernacular. Thank you anyway.
