Hey Rick nice bottles and shards, holy broken Warners batman. Dont take this the wrong way but you should jump in that river. Preferably w a drysuit, bcd, coldwater regulator, mask n fins, 120 cf steel tank and about 40lbs of weight should be good to go. Happy hunting. Kevin

Its very shallow there. I don't think the bottles are in the drink. The hill is long so we have to keep moving along it.

Hi Rick you may be surprised what you can find, 3-4' of water can hold bottles safely. As long as its not a raging river, some of the slower sections could be
good. Sometime around the bigger rocks bottles can settle and get buried. Good to see your digging nice finds.

I wish i knew some divers around here I know places where the water is probably loaded.

The little dump we are digging looks like it may get bigger & better. We are kind of reading it as we dig.A lot of the stuff they dumped went down hill. So we are digging near the top now and its looking promising. 1880s stuff.
