I am 64 and recently retired, I now dig full time and I am based in North adams Mass. I do a LOT of bushwhacking! Would love to find some people who do the same are up for a multiple mile days in the woods, and can share with research and sites. I am open to pvt permissions as well, but primarily I hunt public, open spaces, conservations areas and land trusts.
 
Hello I also enjoy the bushwhacking side of this hobby. I primarily use LiDAR to hunt state forests for cellar holes. Recently I’ve been in south west mass hunting cellar holes. I’d be happy to join you on a treck!

Sounds like a plan! The far south west corner looks like it will be opening up soon barring a big storm

I would be up for that, I am on the tri- state corner, RI, Mass, Conn. I do the same kind of hunting. Hiked the Long Trail recently and finished in North Adams.

I live in North Adams, right at the base of Eagle Pass. Was just looking at the maps around the Tyringham area .... I have a lot of sites pinned in the area but a lot of them are gated off this time of year.Me you and RSdetecting should could get together for a hunt

What are you using for mass LiDAR?

You mentioned Tyringham. Are these sites you have pinned along the Appalachian Trail? I’ve hiked through this area many times I wonder if I’ve seen them 🤔
Send me a message if you’d like to exchange contact info so we can organize something.
 
You got me!! But I absolutely do not hunt in the "corridor". Did a small group hunt there a couple of years ago a friend pulled a Nova Constellation and we dug a crap load of cannon friction primers. I am going to reach to every one here soon. and see if we can exchange emails and phone numbers and set some hunts up...
