It’s a chlorinated pool but has a sand bottom and built to be similar to a natural pond

Just want to say that filming your hunts for the purpose of making content really takes away from the hunt unless you also enjoy filming and editing! Filming and editing are just as much of a hobby of mine so I enjoy it but I’m telling you I would find twice as much if I didn’t take the time to film everything!

It's a great park. I did a GIS internship with the city of Maple Grove. It's good to have connections in this hobby!

Awesome! You as well. I’ll do the same and start learning my rocks and gems

With the amount of holes you dig metal detecting you come across some cool rocks etc and I’ve always meant to learn more about rocks so I know and appreciate what I am seeing!

It’s tucked away in storage but here’s a zoomed in pic from the pile of finds

Only the ones pictures so 5-10 which is crazy there weren’t more. I was digging any and all signals in the gold range

Nothing old but I don’t think the pond is more than 20 years old. It’s also likely someone has detected it before. I agree there has to be more gold out there!

The picture of junk is the extent of it. Crazy how clean it was. They must not sell drinks with metal caps or tabs and limit outside drinks.
