[QUOTE="Ryan27, post: 91042, member: 1074"] I can keep all way points on the map program, points of interest I will code and store. What I like about the tracking function is that it records a blue line wherever you go. This will come handy when I go to work and grid the area. I can take a photo of a point of interest and upload to that way point. I agree with you in regards to leaving the detector alone when visiting a new area. I found out more in 6 To 7 hours of this particular area than I would have in a week of detecting. Tomorrow I plan to do much of the same. I will be back next weekend to detect with a plan of action. One thing I noticed is that conglomerate and Quartz was spread across the area and it wasn't concentrated in any particular spot. This I gather as being an ancient lead that was running at a higher altitude has eroded down and spread itself in every which way. My guess is the gold will be spread the same. Hence why there is few diggings in the area. Simply put, the old timers found very few spots where it was concentrated. The quartz wasn't shedding like reef quartz. I also found a few nice pieces of alluvial pink quartz on one rise. This rock had been in the water along time, a very long time ago ! [/QUOTE]
