Metal Detecting And Exploring A New Permission

Please join me on a little adventure as I go metal detecting and exploring a new farm that I recently acquired permission to metal detect. I find an old homesite and some really great looking woods with limestone outcroppings hat have bottle dumps scattered about. Probably not my most fantastic finds day (lol) but it was, as always, a pleasure to be outside exploring and being part of nature.

How many times do I have to tell you Chigg, a bad day detecting is better than a good day at work! Stop apologizing!! It’s always fun to hang with you❣️

[@NickBell81]

“In the more recent future” this actually explains a lot Chigg, I’m not surprised you are on a different timeline than the rest of us.

[@backtothebasics6595]

Best guy on youtube, I have learned more from him than I ever did in history class. Thank you for taking us along on your adventures!!

[@ClawBoss]

Backto Thebasics I agree

[@benfranklin2450]

The building with the tank is a "Spring House" . Indeed they ran water in through the tank and kept milk cans or other containers in it to keep it cool . (ancient refrigerator) ....

[@Carol-tq1fb]

Wow, I love that old fire place.

[@metal6566]

I like walking around in the woods it's so peaceful.

[@danielmccurry4745]

Besides the treasures you look for there's always something salvageable of value at old house sites like brick, square nails and wood for restoration or redecoration. I once located a fallen down 1700's house with a beautiful double wide stairway insde! Did not have means to remove it, what a shame!

[@patriciavincent1569]

I don't care if you find some thing or not I still enjoy your videos.

[@loa81]

Hear! Hear! We do enjoy The Chigg!

[@TheDarknessIsInMe]

I was literally eating a can of Vienna Sausages when he started talking about them 😂😂😂

[@ClawBoss]

Cool homesite. Video wasn’t a flop. Good history and your videos are always fun and interesting!

[@debbiegradowski9885]

Just spending time listening to you friend is a great time! Please don’t worry so much about us/ Obviously you’ve got a lot of love from a million + Beau!! Just please keep being you! ♥️👍🏼

[@bredhawk56]

I grew up exploring, searching for things on the surface. I could wander for hours. Now metal detecting but like you I get distracted. Love your videos!

[@lynnlopez3274]

[@darkwolf5531]

Still very much enjoy watching Thanks

[@jonpeeler5417]

I wanna hear Chig sing Beck,,,,, "Bartles and cans just clap your hands...." lol

[@Scrumpilump2000]

Never disastrous, Beau! We love hanging out with you. Keep 'em coming.

[@dustyak79]

Go back to see what variety of apples was there, could be a type that isn't cultivated anymore. Might be the last living trees.

[@dustyak79]

Mississippi Ditch Fisher don’t forget it’s all been genetically modified

[@rvabosozoku9019]

I love these woods videos so much. My favorite thing to do is cook some ramen, sit down and watch an aquachigger video

[@chintasrvvegankitchen7761]

The posts in a line remind me of when you push something really heavy and either push or pull it over them.

[@iracranky4970]

Small building is a milk house for keeping milk cans cool with water. Barn would be near by I would think.

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

Man that old homesite was super cool. Love documenting that sort of thing

[@brianwinters4991]

Well if your hunting for old car tires and crap your at the right spot !

[@gregoryblackwell6360]

Love how you explained everything the way you do!

[@ExpeditionTech]

Great stuff Chigg. This is one of only a few channels out there that convey the feeling of ‘being there’.

[@justtodd1969]

The bag in the tree and lick site below... you can fill a cloth bag or sock with salt and hang it from a tree. When it gets wet, the salt water drips on the ground and creates a mineral lick for deer.

[@muddycoils6947]

Wow I love exploring old cellar holes!!

[@randymickelson7608]

I went on my very first battle ground detecting trip because of you and found 7 relics i found 2 bullets,2 pieces of melted lead, 2 percussion caps and 1 square boot nail. This was the Battle of Big Bend on the lower Rogue River in South Western Oregon. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@IratePuffin]

I know it’s a year later but you could find nothing at all and I’d still watch. Seeing the old foundation made the video for me.

[@TheMrpiggyboy]

Another adventurous video. I watch and worry about you and the cisterns and old well sites. Sure glad your paying attention out there.

[@rodantkapoor9721]

It was fun to explore with you, all the best!

[@clockguy2]

My Grandpa had a two seater privy out by the field when i was a kid. My house was built in the 1960s and I have oyster shells in the yard because I like oysters! people held onto oyster shells because it made good fill for potholes in the drive and chickens like to eat the bits of shell for calcium for their egg shells. My Grandpa had a tractor road down through the woods. What trash they couldn't burn got dumped in piles on either side of the road throughout the woods. I thought I saw an Indian crying at 25:27.

[@MetalPirateGirl]

That foundation is beautiful and I can almost picture the old home on top of it

[@geoffreyjones2000]

Thank you for sharing. After you said orchard, My vision totally changed peace

[@jaybales3160]

Interesting and much like several hunt I have experienced. Best of luck on your next. Thanks for sharing.

[@akmainiac]

Enjoyed being with you today Don’t get down on yourself so much it takes too much energy that you can use for metal detecting 😁

[@randlerichardson5826]

Still a great video Chigger. GOD BLESS. Maybe next place.

[@SwampDonkey64]

Same problem in my yard. Previous owner would run aluminum cans over with riding lawn mower. I am glad you explained the litter at the end. People dumping in the woods makes me crazy.

[@brianpotter2135]

You should go back for morels in two months,they love old apple trees

[@jodyrsoper9740]

Thanks for sharing.

[@Roosterdoodler]

Back in the old days there was no city dumps! Unfortunately people dumped trash in the woods. Most of the time it was in a ditch or off the creek back! Some of them did leave some treasures in those dumps! Chigger has some old videos digging bottles on the river bank, check them out, pretty neat!

[@halbarney2682]

Thanks for the vid, chigg 😂

[@Pancreaticdefect]

Definitely going to have to go back in the spring for the morels that often grow in abundance in old apple orchards.

[@OutdoorsygalO]

That is an interesting permission you got there. Thanks for bringing us along. I found it quite interesting just seeing all the things you showed us. I liked your comment about the cat food cans. 😉 I do that too. 🙂

[@alaskahammeryukonvarietych6793]

Apple orchards are great morel mushroom hunting spots

[@outdoorinfluencer]

Awesome finds

[@brentshunt]

Incredibly enjoyable and informative videos. Keep them coming!

[@robinqm]

Love checking cornfields...found many Indian arrowheads

[@troubx23]

well at least you got outside for a while, so good that.

[@historyfeind1898]

The old hood he saw in the woods goes to an L-Series International Harvester truck from the early '50s. I have an L-110.

[@caratcranker5874]

Hey Beau, when they scrape that/this site off, get in there after hours. Quite often, [as a bottle digger/relic hunter myself], all this trash goes, you can see older glass as they scrape off the tops of bottles holes etc. [COLOR], as diggers call it, Ie, the color of ash, charcoal lime old glass layers. [undug].

[@johnramirez5032]

Better late than later! Perhaps your folly will help another detecorist down the road.! I have had those days myself. I howerver never did much research and have resigned to the thrill of the hunt as my reward. Thank you for all your videos and keeping the child like adventurous love alive in all of us.

[@cd1673]

Great sleuthing, Chigg!!

[@MiaMaven]

Love your videos even if you don't find much, your videos are always entertaining.

[@dannyl2598]

Thanks Chigg. I learned a lot from this video.

[@gregorygwiazda3139]

The small building looks like an old milk house, the concrete tank would have been used to cool milk cans. Cool well water was pumped into the tank for a few hours or so, there would be a two foot pipe over flow to let excess water flow out.

[@DirtNerds]

Gotta Love those Kentucky Wedding bands!

[@esabatm4988]

Looked like a miniature Predator skull floating on that piece of wood.

[@CanadianHistoryHunter]

Great permission!

[@rightleg5920]

I've been waiting all day to watch this!

[@ForshmaherTREASUREHUNT]

great video LIKE) and I'm on the beach go, silver and gold local raise yet)

[@HurtWorldMoneyForshmaher1337tv]

And you've got not bad videos on the channel +

[@rightleg5920]

I think the the lid at 20:05 was a smashed lightbulb. Ahahahaha still exciting!

[@will-da-beast4628]

Loved it, thanks

[@gogetter8866]

No complaints here. It’s still a good video.👍🏻

[@SuperNetSpyder]

It's going to be -20*F in illinois this week, so I'm perfectly happy joining YOU on your walk through nature.. saves me the frostbite, but I still get to feel the excitement of being along on a journey. Also, as a certified arborist, it also kills me to see a natural area so cluttered with garbage.

[@dougalexander7204]

The old orchard would be good morel hunting this spring...

[@dawnlindgron5570]

I learned something tho Chig. Never would have thought of that... Good experience for a novice. Tks

[@CarolinaDiggers]

Right before you saw the bag in the tree. At 26m23-24s you see a Deer Stand behind you in the trees.

[@tomseadon9965]

I like these videos because I can really relate! I live in north Florida and there’s quite a few places like this! Just gotta know where to look! Lots of old turn of the century homesteads! Civil war era too!

[@LuvBugCrafts]

Thanks for the vid, you are always full of great info. I wish someone would create a 1-800- I found a trash site number so people like you can report it and they can send someone to clean it up and take it to where it belongs, an actual dump processing area.I am amazed at the trash thrown all over the place. It is horrible for the environment never mind the animals. So sad to see the laziness and disrespect.

[@davidburton5961]

Hey Chigg I really enjoy your videos and all the neat old places you seem to wind up at. I used to detect with a Whites 6000 D Series 2 bought it new in 82 hey I made a rhyme lol. One of my best finds was a Franklin Half that appeared to look as big as a trash can lid, Wow and the sound of that thing still rings in my ears. Seeing all those pull tabs and bottle caps brings back some good but aggravating memories. To me yours is one of the best channels on here. Better luck next time.

[@advenzures]

Super awesome video, thank you for sharing. Great adventure. 👊🏻😉👍🏻

[@bodge6886]

Another good one AC well done.

[@Robb403]

I don't blame you for giving up on that mess. It seems to me that the house was built in the early to mid eighteen hundreds because of those large open fire places and multiple chimneys. It was most likely a very large, all purpose farm with an orchard which wasn't uncommon back then because they would grow fruit for themselves and to sell. There was a large barn and some sheds and probably a shack or two where the hired help lived who were not necessarily immigrants. The building with the cement pit is called milk house. Before there was electricity, a wind pump on the shallow well next to it brought up cold water to chill the milk cans and butter and other stuff until they could be taken to market. Sometimes, people buried money in canning jars near the milk house because they often didn't trust banks. But, the property has been trashed probably by vagrants and druggies like many of the abandoned old houses where I live and someone finally burned it down. Hunters have left their trash and illegal dumpers disposed of their old tires there. Very recently from the looks of it. What a mess for a developer to clean up.

[@petesmowerrepair]

Cool video ! Keep'em comin' !

[@highenergyog]

Hi Chig, I have found a few dead Coyotes and quite a few dead deer as well over the past few summers up here in Ontario. Love all the things you do on KZbin and hope one day when you come back up north here that perhaps we could get together. I've found two more caves that I haven't explored yet and it would be nice to explore them with you.

[@Decland666]

I love your videos, Chigg, and I love it when you point out dead stuff! Morbid to some but to me when I find stuff out in the woods, I bring it back to clean and get beautiful bones from to use in my sculptural artwork here in PA. If you ever want to sell anything you find let me know, I'd love a skull for my personal collection from the Chigg!

[@donaldscott7279]

Can only get better

[@WizzardofOdds]

I think that last item you dug around the 20 minute mark was the screw base of a light bulb.

[@JaySmith-cd1ln]

Great Video 😀

[@maytagmark2171]

There are a couple houses that I know of in this area with chimneys built in the center of the house. All pre civil war 1800 - 1830s

[@maytagmark2171]

And some one is going to develop that mess into building lots, How do you ever clean that mess up.

[@shakeme3290]

KameMan ..maybe with a few really really big bulldozers. I find places like this all the time and I try to imagine what the people who dumped all the trash were thinking.

[@lynnlopez3274]

You are definitely an optimist.

[@redgarcia1427]

I don't think in all the years I've gone out in the woods that I've seen a dead Coyote either!

[@yahwehskid4819]

That hunt was like most of mine 😆

[@LunaTemari]

As a bone collector I'm biting my nails at all the cool finds you do, I wish I'd find that many dead animals over here;;

[@beepseatsfindingfoodtreasu8756]

Can't win em all, but it was fun figuring out what was going on there. So my thinking is that the small building was a cider mill. But that house has to have something around it just because of the foundation and square nails. Might be more in the area if that wasn't on your map's or listed on the county land plats. Thanks for the hike anyhow! Beeps.

[@-meganeura]

IF you ever come to Portugal I have a "underwater job" for you, epic Roman treasure guaranteed! Bring the scuba gear :D

[@lancethegimpyfisherman1050]

Even with all the trash I would love to detect a place like that I'm used to digging cans I detect a lot of parks

[@JohnGotts]

Cloverdale is 1960's Baltimore soda.

[@libbynester1814]

Bummer! But i know you have those days of finding just trash. But, it is interesting to see the construction of the old house. I enjoyed seeing the property. And the dead animals were interesting . It will be a better time next time. LOL

[@Snarkapotamus]

That building probably had a water supply and was used to keep milk cans cold..

[@mamasgonecreating1967]

That is a little walnut tree. I have a black walnut in my yard that we are guessing is about the same age as our house built in 1900. It is so big around two people have to really stretch to get their arms around it (and we are tall people with long arms).

[@danbike5243]

20:05 light bulb threading?

[@emilyjames7159]

Hey Chigg, I'm pretty sure the logs laying in a row on the ground were to prevent erosion when it rains. My dad did something similar on our property for that reason

[@jjcaron72]

Like the coat Chigg.

[@lkncatfish7586]

i do not think tires would be there naturally. lol love your videos thx

[@darlenefrancis1175]

"I thought it was a cool video" two thumbs up.

[@francescalichfieldcity6971]

Oh wow. You should metal detect the area. X

[@Yellowlabratory]

I’m so glad someone with your IQ has such a personable sense of humor. You’re so cool ! I’m one of your zillion channel fans

[@vin-r5384]

I thought I only have hunts like that
