The last couple of mornings it has been frost and sub zero degrees but today the temperature was back up to a "normal" +4 Celsius, so it was time for a small trip to the forest. I wanted to check out a place so I detected my way through the forest. On my way I found a pick axe with the handle intact, some buttons, a ski binding, a gasmask canister with mask inside, a box missing its lid and a bunch of k98 casings. I came across a small area with lots of good signals and there I dug out a Norwegian 25 Øre coin from 1943, part of a Esbit burner, a stripper clip and a small "viking" sword letter opener, marked "Norge 1941". Sadly it had been broken in three parts and I didnt manage to find the handle part. I also found a couple of small ashtrays. Then I found the place I wanted to find. It had stood a couple of German barracks there and the whole slope next to them was full of signals, metal poking out here and there, and a few ovens visible through the undergrowth. I checked a few of the signals and there were buckets, oven parts, horseshoes, casings, and trash. Here might be some good stuff hiding, but I became aware of some hunters coming in to the area, so we greeted each other and I withdrew as I was unarmed and their season for hunting is shorter than mine and I wouldn`t disturb them or their prey :D Definately a spot I am going to come back to though, but that might not happen before next season..
