I found somebody's leg one time in Georgia.  Mostly bone.  From the hip joint all the way to the toes.   Found an old moonshine still just prior to that.  Have walked up on a couple different small marijuana crops.  Found an old tent with what appeared to be a freshly skinned dog hanging beside it, could have been a coyote but looked like Bowzer to me.

I found a guy missing a leg that smelled of moonshine and marijuana looked like he had been living out of a tent and had recently skinned a canine.
Ha ha!!!

Intersting finds: I've lost more than I have found but I did find an old hunting knife once on National forest land. Also found a small grave yard near the Peaks of Otter in Va. Read later that settlers in the 1700's fled to the peaks to avoid the Indians. Looked like some did not make it. Most of the graves were dated in the 1700's: at least the ones you could read. Many of them were fallen over and half buried. No sign of a house or fort but it  was a short distance from the Blue Ridge Parkway which follows the old road. Always wonder what happened to thise people.

Found this one the other day. Had been around it but never seen for the last 4 years. Lawn chair between a locust and an elm about 12 feet up.

I found a family living in an RV on private land. Before I could tell the land owner they had bolted. Could've been a roving meth lab. Most likely people down on their luck.

I felt like resurrecting this thread could be fun. 

I have found a few things of interest.  I hunted an old base in North Va and on their found ordnance with aluminum riveted fins still attached that where used in tests from the 40's. 

I found a old trash pile that had medicine and soda bottles from the 20's.  Most of which where cobalt blue.  I kept a couple.

One cool thing I found that really stood out I found in the deep woods completely surrounded by trees was an old chimney standing about 20' tall with nothing else around it.  My guess is 1700's time frame.  When I say nothing else I mean there was leaves and grass and trees that had to be over 100 years old standing where a home should have been in relation to the chimney.

I found a old model vehicle from the 30's as well, but absolutely no way to tell what type from what was left.

The first morning of Deer muzzle loader season I found a slaughtered pigs head on a stump. It was my first solo hunt having just turned 16 and watching " The Amittyville Horror" the night before  :OGturkeyhead:

I can't tell if you're someone I would like to hunt with, or someone I'd want to steer clear of....

Found an old peddle bike way out in the middle of the woods a long long ways from the nearest civilization ,  another time I found a Buck 110 lock blade that had been there for many years, and last year while hunting a huge WMA in Virginia we hound an old moonshine still,  I  found my son's Yellow heart striker a year later in the state land ,  Probably one of the funniest things I ever found way out in the state land was a Toilet..

Good read thanks for bring this back up, I have posted this before, found it on the way out from turkey hunting one day, being from the south I wish it CSA.

I found these on a Florida WMA much too far for anyone that needed them to be able to put them there.

Found this on State Game Lands along with a well worn seat.  It made me stop and just look around and take it in.  Just before I found this sign I found a Hershey chocolate bar in the field. So I partook of it and listened for a gobble.

Walked into a marijuana patch a couple years ago...marked the coordinates and called it in.

Found an area cordoned off with binder twine whereas they walked around and around with a spool until it was an enclosure. They had life sized plywood cutouts of people hanging up in the trees. Well off the beaten path. Some weird cult thing I imagine.
