Create your Own Treasure Hunter Profile!
Create a page to share your stories, photos,
fascinating finds, and top tips for treasure hunting.
There are two ways to do it:
1- Personal Profile Page:
The easiest way to document your treasure hunting career is by using the default treasure hunter template included on your user profile page. To fill it in, simply navigate to your profile and then click the EasyEdit button -- the profile page will repopulate with the treasure hunter profile! (Note: threads started on this kind of profile will not appear in the discussions area, so very few people will have a chance to read them, they are useful as a blog or for semi-private conversations)
2- Public Profile Page:
Want your page to be available for other treasure hunters like you to edit? Follow the instructions below to create a collaboratively edited profile page for your favorite type of treasure hunting:(Note: If you leave your page under this page no one else will edit it, as you should not edit any pages under this one in the menu)
1. Click "Add a new page" below the navigation menu at left, name your page, and then select the "My Treasure Hunter Profile" template from the drop-down menu of available pre-formatted page types, or one of the other selections...blank if you want to create a page with your own formatting.
2. Use the template as a guide to create your profile.
3. Personalize your page with your name, stories, images, treasure hunting advice, best places to find treasures, and more.

leonscabin What is your A #1 best rock hunting place in the southwest? 16 Oct 29 2009, 10:42 PM EDT by jakesrocks
Thread started: Oct 27 2009, 7:57 PM EDT  Watch
Being 73 is not all that bad. I want to go rock hunting in the western states as I have spent some time out there when working in mines and mills and on construction jobs. My parents traveled a lot and we lived in allmost every state before i was 8 years old. I owned the Deer creek mine in AZ. but the first fuel shortage bank rupted me and it was back to work in the construction world. I still have a good amount of high grade Deer Creek Fire Agates that I work when I want to.
I never want to sell them all as I do not want to have to buy more. The folks that have the mine now are nice people but I have no desire to go see how bad the place is torn up now. The last I saw it they had left so much junk and fallen down camper trailors that it was a shame to the rock hound name. it was no longer a beautiful place that I had loved, It was a junk yard that made me terrably up set. So now I have not a clue as to what all has been done other than digging a big hole with heavy Equipt. My wife and I do have a store on ebay that is HughesGemsAndMinerals, which she manages for us. I do all the lapidary and silver work as she still works 6 hours a day here in our home, telecommuting to San Diego. Currently we are looking for a good place to move to in one of the western states, where there is lots of open areas to rock hunt in, and there are not so many fences and keep out signs like in Texas. We hope to move next spring if we can find a place that we can afford, and not being wealthy, that is not easy. Our largest saw is an 18", but we use the 6" trim saw more than anything else.
Anyone have great suggestions on an out of the way place, that is still affordable for a working class retiree and working wife?
By the way, I have a little book I wrote at http://web.bigbend.net/users/leonscabin/ProspectingBook.PDF. Thanks for the warm welcome!
