Treasure Hunting History

Have you ever met an old building, foundation or a big tree with carvings on it while hunting or fishing in the country back? I have, I have learned to take my metal detector on my trips.
During a hunting trip a few years ago, we had four wheels back in the hills of southern Arizona. We about 2 miles from the border of Mexico. Southern Arizona has a lot of history. Old Forts, Treasure Mine, Boot Hill, Tombstone.
Once we reached our Instead of hunting, we each went in another direction, looking for a good place to wait for the game.
I went about two miles in the mountains when I came in a old stone wall. This wall was of "stacking" the rocks about 1 foot high. I guess that was taller at one time. It was 15 feet long. I could not understand what he was doing a wall outlet in this area. No road or path visible. I sat on the wall, waiting for the game. So did a rattlesnake. Scared the living day lights out of me. I think he was uglier than him or her, so he slipped out.
After two hours and not seeing any game, I decided to poke around this wall. It became apparent this wall was actually a camp base line as possible, farm, or part of a fortress. Normally when you see the old buildings in Arizona, is accustomed to seeing corrugated roofing sheets of wood or some sort. This site had none of those details.
Needless to say, I had my metal detector that day. Using a stone began to excavate around the wall. I found a piece iron strangely. It was shaped like a "T" with one end of the curved top. Later I found out what was an old farmer. Was a "boot" cleaner. When the pawn was entering the building where his boots cleaned by running them over the T.
I never returned to that place with a detector metal, but is marked on the map.
Over the years we have looked for places like the field of online age. When searching around an old building, as a field line, search for house around. Most of these veterans have to dig a hole outside the building and launching of their garbage into the hole. We found some nice old bottles and other garbage into the hole.
If there is a fairly large tree near by, to check the activity past. Sizes, old rope in the extremities. Could a child be used as a swing. More search around the base. I remember doing one of our hunting trips, looking for a mining camp is gone and a large tree next to the buildings. Until about 15 feet stuck in the tree was a license plate old. The tree grew around the board where only half of it was visible. You could not see far. We left. I meant no harm to the tree.
Look around stood by itself. The miners used to use trees, posts, walls to bury their valuables.
In the same place, find old milk glass, square nails, parts of old cars, old knife and some old coins. Subsequent investigations indicated that mining camp closed in 1935.
In short, if you are hunting, fishing, pack trip or package some others where there is an opportunity to find the treasure not forget to take your detector metals. On the other treasure detecting tips and information please Azmuletreasures box below.
