    I have found quite a few galvanized buckets in the woods and several recently.I wonder if they were originally monument holders? Most are rusted through but several were whole.And I though galvanized didn't rust:-)

    I remember a few lucky stabs.One you made out just north of Calico.I remember also looking for the Rider stones and I made one into a clump of moss lifted out of the ground by a tree and the stone was wedged between the crotch of the two trunks in the moss clump.

    I didn't know Buddy died.Sorry to hear that Bob.How long ago. I think I remember Him fro a PBX hike or two. I"d say the same about Sophie.Let her go swamping with me and if she has a seizure and dies at least she was having fun when she went but Momma won't hear it.She hasn't been out with just...

    Perhaps the road has moved since the monument was placed.This does happen.The road may have run across the island at one time?

    A lot of work not to walk off with it.Without looking I believe the disc was supposedly five inches under the road plus there was probably two or three feet of concrete I"m sure. Lot of work. Well i didn't look for anything today though i was riding around your neck of the woods checking the...

    I think you might mean 4019 and 4020? It appears you have the one that was 5 inches under the road? Wonder how that got yanked up to the surface? I"m heading out now and thats the first area I"m headed to.I may not be able to dig if the grounds frozen and it's going to be a dog day so it may be...

    Planning a Batona Trail Thru Hike

    If you do it south to north you'll have the sun at your back at least in the areas where it really is heading north but as Ed says you'll end up in a less remote and more heavily peopled area that is almost all oak and not that Piney at all.
