    Keep Looking Down.

    Deer hunting near Rich Hill, lots of diggings and shafts dot the landscape. Old cans and bottle shards from the last two centuries. Spotted this 12ga. Shotshell brass, dates back 100 years. Next in a miners rock claim cairn monument, I dug down past the top stones and found this claim notice in an old bottle Still trying to get the lid off. It’s pretty beat up, doesn't want to give up its secrets easily.

    Was my job today to mark new claim corners.for the company. Always amazed as I'm out in the sticks using satellite GPS, to find how accurate the old timers were marking corners with rock cairns using compass, chains and geological survey markers. Many of these old cairns were built only a few feet off.

    Leave new claim markers, usually 5' capped pvc, alone. The old timers built rock cairns and put the claim papers in jars and tobacco tins to preserve them from rats and weather. The claims have to be renewed annually and that rarely happens over more than a few consecutive years.

    Just bought a Traeger and really?

    I haven't gone pellet but I do a lot of smoking in the green egg. Mesquite or pecan for beef and citrus is good with fish and fowl.

    I forgot about the 'law.' Knifes are considered tools for adults unless they're used maliciously. Folders only up to 21... seems a bit much.

    Whatever knife you give him he'll be trying to stick it in stumps when you ain't looking. Get him a durable fixed blade and something more meaningful when he's a little older. My dad gave me a Kabar i saw in the window of Cashbox Pawn, when I started hunting, wish I still had it.
