I have access to all Sanborn maps of the US; they have been a lot of help to me and want to help others. One city and one date (earliest usually prefered) ; because I think there might be a lot of responses and want to get everyone something. If you want a huge one like NYC or SF or other, some...
Hi All,
I was up to above 70 percent at getting permission with a simple cold call , introduce myself and I collect bottles by digging for them. After this I would ask to probe and address there concerns about "what ever". Main thing I heard was there is nothing back there. Usually I would...
I only know a few other diggers in AZ; are there any more out there??
I am in Prescott and dig as much as possible. Learned how to probe and find pits myself out here; which is pretty hard. Sure have learned to probe a lot and dig a little. Dug a few to many empty 8 foot holes were I should...

I guess the best payment I...
Hi,

I apologize for not getting back to some people that were interested in the
past. Had a major computer problem and lost a lot of e-mail. If...

Found a couple of real good sites in Prescott AZ. One is a house that I beleive

about 40 miles away in another small town and the owner of the strip mall is
a Trust under husband and wife names.
My question...

Is the bottle layer always at the bottom? When you are standing in the pit how
do you avoid breaking the bottles by stepping on...
Hi to all, this is my first post and I am very happy to have found this
group. Have never dug a privy but will soon!
Now live in Prescott AZ and have found an old town that used to be at the
intersection of a railroad line. The line has been removed and is now a public
trail. Hardly anyone...
