poked around the one railway location where I had found some cans earlier but didn't seem to find as much , maybe I've cleaned it up or wasn't looking in right area

couple 90's era pepsi and Molson cans , a few metal cans , pepsi , c plus , diet sprite , Canada dry , crush - lime

the crush lime has oddly faded light blue in parts , you can see how its green but blue on edges , seems to be a lot less common can to find than the orange crush

also found 2 late 80's/90's era thin metal cans at another spot but both are extremely damaged , is a diet sprite and Canada dry ginger ale

also went back to the main location very briefly the other day , just happened to be driving by so took a quick look to see if I missed anything .

didn't really look hard for new cans or dig any up , did find a Yukon club cola which I hadn't seen before and a couple more grand prix ginger ale and cola

big surprise was the 7 up bottle , somehow it had been hiding in the dirt just lightly covered , the return for deposit part was showing and so I pulled it out and surprised to see what it was and that somehow I had not found it already .

not sure of the exact year but based on age of dump would be late 60's or 70's era , in pretty good condition but missing cap , all the other bottles in this dump had there but this one .

found some cans along a small road that is beside a railway however nothing was in good condition or worth cleaning up

was a 7 up , pepsi , coca cola , 2 Fanta but unsure of flavour and a stubby beer bottle that was still full

decided to poke around another former town dump site , not exactly sure what years this one was open from but I know that it closed in the late 90's .

obviously not allowed to dig up the dump itself but I had a hunch there might be stuff in the woods around the dump which blew there or from bags wild animals dragged in years ago when looking for food

was a fair bit of stuff from 80's to early 90's era there , a number of thin metal pop cans that are pretty difficult to find in even half reasonable condition as they rust pretty quickly and considering they've been outdoors for almost 30 years few have survived

aluminum cans included - diet pepsi , master choice - ginger ale , cream soda , a & w root beer , 7 up diet , RC cola diet , diet coke

thin metal cans included - crush - cream soda , pepsi , coca cola , 7 up , Yukon club - tonic water , diet pepsi , fresca , mountain dew , as you can see many still had nearly full colour but all had some rust obviously

also a Welch's grape juice containter , green stubby bottle and a Fruitopia juice bottle from 90's

found some more cans and bottles in the area of former dump I was exploring last week , however these were on the other side of the road deep in some pine trees . obviously some sort of illegal dumping , maybe dump was closed or person didn't want to pay to dump it .

mostly a lot of pepsi stuff , 3 stubby bottles , various cans some aluminum and some thin metal ones , was more there than ones pictured , everything seemed to be from early 90's

also 2 crush cans , grape in aluminum and lime heavily damaged thin metal can . never found the lime in metal before , already have a grape can in the garage

was a mountain dew aluminum can and Sunkist lemonade in metal , never seen that one before

3 Labatt blue cans , 2 have a blue jays thing on back " brewing up a storm " Toronto blue jays vs Milwaukee brewers . not sure why that game was important as i don't remember any series vs that team back when they won the world series in the 90's

went back to the former dump and found more cans , bugs were starting to get bad so likely won't go back there for at least a few months .

but I found a couple small bags of stuff that had been buried underground in some trees so it was pretty well preserved .

metal cans included - coca cola , orange crush , pc orange , Schweppes ginger ale , raspberry , 7 up , sprite ,

aluminum cans included - diet coke , pc cola , allan cola , coca cola , Labatt blue , master choice ginger ale

also found a sun pac juice bottle and a coca cola stubby marked 79 cents that looks like it just came off the store shelf

and a can I've never seen before , for splash lemonade says it was made for coca cola , and dates from the early 80's , wasn't found in the dump but rather down an embankment along road to it

also found a stubby Mountain dew bottle , it was along a roadway embankment , found it hidden among some trees , at first though it was a plastic bottle but then realised it was a stubby

some colour but label mostly faded away and starting to tear , cap is plain white , no logo on it either

don't find mountain dew stubby's very often , found one a couple years ago but it was even worse shape , also found a green stubby bottle at dump which might of been for mountain dew

most of the stubby bottles here seem to be for pepsi and coca cola . although is some around for crush , cplus , Canada dry and a few others

hadn't found many cans the last week or so but did find a couple at a park the other day , it has a large hillside area with trees and stuff seems to have been hidden there .

poked around a bit and found some cans , mostly coca cola , also a Canada dry wink with a lot of colour and a sunspun cola

one of the coca cola's is an older flat top can with diamond shape on front but its not in great shape

also an odd no caffeine coca cola can I haven't seen before in metal , I'd assume early 80's
