[QUOTE="kev205, post: 670948, member: 14319"] I have been out with a couple that have spent many years in the scrub. It always amazes me that when I look up to see where they are they are waaaaay off and heading further. My method is to pull the Ute up under a nice tree, get set up and head off, I stay within sight of the Ute, when I have worked that area, I move the Ute. I don't know how many times I have picked up pieces on ground my friends have bolted over. Don't get me wrong they get good gold as well but I have seen them after going for a while walking back with the detector in the air. I have EPERB, compass, uhf, and small signalling mirror on my harness and hf radio and base station gps in the Ute with all the medical, water, tucker ect, so I try to be as safe as I can in the field but as I said I cover the ground near the Ute ... then move the Ute [/QUOTE]
