Delw Report post Posted November 6, 2019 Yeah thats what was cool about it. that old ink label. pepsi in flag opened in 1943 kid and I tried to figure out how they got there that long ago. we figured it was some loggers or hunters. some old stumps but no old roads or even signs of them(depressions). we figured from 60's mom looked it up when we got home said it was from 46. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G_E_E Report post Posted November 6, 2019 That's awesome, I'm picturing someone sitting under that tree swigging the whiskey then sipping the Pepsi, enjoying the outdoors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biglakejake Report post Posted November 6, 2019 in the middle of 37b on barkerville road i was quail hunting out on those massive flats just south of the kelvin road. back under an old scrub palo verde i notice something white and investigated, two golf balls different labels lying about 2 inches apart at least a mile from the nearest road. still there, still a mystery. lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saguaro Report post Posted November 6, 2019 Biglakejake, you're the one person on this site that mentions every place I’ve been or think about on a regular basis weather it’s high or low. Get out of my head. I bet we’ve crossed paths before. I archery hunt in 37B every year with a buddy. We always joke about bringing old or unremarkable Elk sheds and spread them out just to see if someone on the forum talks about a cool find and to start arguments about Elk being out there.

Saguaro Report post Posted November 6, 2019 No, I’m an amateur compared to the Hatch’s. I try real hard, but the Deer always see me and run. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JACK Report post Posted November 7, 2019 A few years ago I got caught in a crazy thunderstorm in the wilderness and this little cave was the best thing I could find for shelter...while I was waiting for the storm to pass I notice a piece of metal in the back of the cave and I started moving rocks and all this old miners loot was stashed in there...pretty crazy find...except the sumbitch didn’t leave any gold behind 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven’t had an expert look at them...they are pretty rusted but from what we could find on the interweb the pans are Acme cold handle 1872 Is when they started getting manufactured...they came in a two pack...and the double boiler pot I don’t remember the maker but it started getting manufactured in 1880s 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
