A lot of nice finds. How many people showed up? I was planning on going but had too much going on that day.

There were probably forty people, I honestly did not expect that many to show with rain in the forecast!

Wow 40 people

That is a lot for Belgrade 

You did well for that many people being there.

Kind of glad I could not make it with it being that crowded.

behind the trailer, my desert
Them red clay piles are heaven on earth
I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt

We were in an area of about ten acres.  I enjoyed running into people so I could ask them what I was finding.  I learned so much, and I am hooked!

I am very familiar with Belgrade, I have been hunting there for over 15 years. I have also lead countless trips there. I always try to limit the amount of people to 20 - 25. And the collecting area is smaller now that some of it has become so overgrown.
