[QUOTE="Roscoe, post: 60199, member: 1615"] The people in my view who get the most Gold metal detecting are the pro's and retirees. The reason these people get most of the gold is that they are Keen, Well equipped, Travel to good gold bearing areas of Australia and spend a lot of time in the location with coil to the ground. So as a family person with limited time on my hands. I wanted to improve my chances and have that coil more on the ground and searching. I have decided to keep myself mobile and stay out there detecting longer. This will involve combining hiking and detecting together. Keeping this to a manageable weight level has been challenging. I will post below my pack and sleeping gear so far. [b]NOTE:[/b] I edited my original post as i ramble on a bit and lets just say i had a few whilst writing it. Sorry about that. Anyway, If any one else backpacks in detecting i would be interested in there backpacking setups. :) [/QUOTE]
