Bluesky,
Just another hopeful reply to an old message...
We kinda do a little of both...Yes we do meet monthy to review (brag) on our finds. But while there we network with others and plan excursions of generally smaller subgroups, (usually determined by who's schedule allows them to go), on all kinds of adventures from Detecting to Prospecting etc. I encourage you come to a meeting and maybe find some great hunting partners.
