This hunt has a waiting list of over 100 people and signups deadline was in December. Set your sights on the fall and keep visiting the main DIV page for the signup announcement thread which typically occurs sometime in late summer for the fall hunt. In the mean time check out the FAQ and other informational document links about DIV in the banner at the top of the forum and posts in the forum for more info. Good luck.
John, you're exactly right, you can't be these camps December 05, 2017 12:05AM |

I agree John, GO SLOWLY, DIG EVERYTHING, and take it with you! You will save all of your fellow diggers a lot of time if you throw whatever you dig in your pouch. They will have plenty of places to throw your nails and other iron away. (n/t) August 20, 2015 01:29PM |
