Nothing is more fun than exploring the mountains of Montana looking for old homesteads.
After awhile you start to learn the clues of where a settler might want to build a small cabin and start farming or ranching.
I love metal detect these home sites and see what treasures they left behind.
Sometimes these sites are loaded with relics and coins.
These items are clues as to what history took place at the site.
Other times they only contain a few tin cans.
Some settlers didn't make it or died right away.
I am using my Minelab Equinox 800, but I wish I could find a Manticore to buy!
