@@kevinthompson629 In Victoria it is very solid ground and the bedrock can be near impossible to dig through with hand tools whilst detecting…. We do have lots of fairly easier ground but it’s less productive.

Thanks Paul

Was pricing ice screws at the local camping retailer for a tarp setup for 0°, 8k', 100+mph winds/heavy (2'+/day), & realized I can diy 50 pegs for the price of one... thanks for your help & thoughts. Ryobi boys on it

I just saw a video of some plastic orange screw in tent stake. 25 bucks for two. That should be a crime. I like your idea. Should last a lifetime. Too many spendy do dads are being sold. As humans we love our stuff. LOL

Thanks for that, we are back on the Luminosa this weekend for another Cruise.

This years collection is growing,

Thanks, we’re heading off on another one next week.

Hi mate, we were back out at our usual spot (you know where) last weekend and Carissa found a few pieces. I’ll put up a video tomorrow night…. Next week we’re off on another cruise as they gave us a deal we couldn’t refuse. Hopefully we can catch up again shortly.

thanks. i made it so i can do quick cleanups at home...

Thanks Pete, as you know how much is involved in trying to capture everything. 11 pieces and all live digs,,,, thankfully the lead to gold was only 3 to 1

Both are very tiresome at times… due to a severe hand injury I cannot detect/dig anymore so Carissa does all the hard work and I try and film as much as I can.

The Victorian Goldfields are still producing the goods, still lots to be found. Good luck for when you come over.

We love ours, it’s a nice spoil to have a well made coffee.

We’re just watching your fishing one.

That’s so sad about your dog.

@@GlennCarissasAdventures-qs4hi yes it is He’s resting peacefully now

Thanks, it was a great weekend.

It was our first at Pete’s day out and we will definitely be there next year. The storm was ridiculously loud and so spectacular…. All for free. lol Look forward to hopefully catching up with you..

Thanks, it was a fantastic weekend and the storm was brief and so spectacular.

Awesome! Thank you!

My pleasure!

I was thinking the same It looks like it's been ring barked I've seen whole forests of ring barked dead trees

cuts in trees like that i showed are mainly found in the Victorian areas they were digging. In the gold rush times not a tree was to be found for miles as they were cut down to build structures or firewood... that tree was purposely cut at that height and the groove angled down to stop the rope sliding down as the tree type is extremely smooth... I have other videos showing this and other reasons why they did it.. I hope that helps and thanks for the reply...

@@GlennCarissasAdventures-qs4hi Thanks for the info that makes sense.

@@PoshLifeforME I still reckon it's been ring barked It could've been ring barked because of the fork in it's stem and the angle of the cut may have also been because of the forked stem The whole area looks like regrowth

@@hodaka1000 That cut would have killed the tree so it is ring barked, but it may also have been used as some kind of pully. I know the trees were ringbarked back in the day simply to have an ongoing supply of dry wood.

It was!

Thanks. Pete put on a great event.

Thanks, will do!

I had another ribs one to do at your subs day for Friday night but the storm ruined the setup and flooded the meal I was preparing so we just cooked it and gave up on the video. I have started to put some stuff together from the weekend but I’ll wait until yours is out and then I’ll put it up. Thanks again and hopefully we can catch up out there one day and have a chat. G & C

@GlennCarissasAdventures-qs4hi That storm was a pain, but it was gone as quick as it came, so that was good. My video will go out 7pm this Thursday, so scheduled it for just after that and you could get a follow on. Thanks for heading up on the weekend, it turned out great, the days were really good for prospecting, not too hot. Cheers

That’s my fault, I left the meal on the bench and forgot as I was trying to film two things at the same time, the rain/storm was awesome and so brief. I purposely didn’t mention your day too much as it was your weekend and I’m not sure of the protocol between filming our stuff on your weekend. All new to us.

@GlennCarissasAdventures-qs4hi All good mate, Anthony had his video out Saturday night 🤣 his was just about his day mostly and none of the formal stuff. Put yours out Thursday night after mine, might get a kick on from it. Cheers 👍

They did end up coming off, Carissa had a work function a few days before and had her nails done for that. The glue they use seems pretty good.

Welcome aboard!

Thank you! Cheers!

We’re planning the menu now… Friday night is slow cooked pork ribs with scalloped potatoes on the Travel Buddy….. Do you drink any spirits, I have my own distillery and was going to bring a few samples along.

@GlennCarissasAdventures-qs4hi Wow, now you're just showing off, are you going to have the blow up hot tub like on that TV ad as well? I really only drink beer, and shots during festive times and that normally results in a headache.

Thanks, hope it helped.

It’s a great area and there’s plenty of places to camp well off the road.
