I have often thought about MDing in a cemetary cause I know that would be a great place. I have lost stuff out of my pockets in cemetarys before, and I know I'm not the only one. I just don't know if that might be illegal....has anybody done it before? I wonder how ticked off people would get about it if they seen me diggin there, it's not like I would be diggin 'em up.

well I have dealt in scrap metal for a large portion of my life and I have seen scrap from dentists and from cremations it has to go somewhere and once its mixed into the regular scrap its basically untraceable. Its not like they are going to giveaway money or toss it in the trash. After so many bodys pass through the ovens they must be cleaned out and they are not going to toss the gold or the surgical stainless steel from hip or knee or pins, that accumalates. They sell it.

Whip out the topo maps... there's plenty of old ones that are hidden from sight :) LIke I said 4" is a little shallow to be worried about bones . If they were that shallow, they were pulled out by an animal long ago. If it bothers you don't hunt directly over graves. Do near the gates or along paths or statues.

Now it MIGHT signal you have little taste, but it sure wouldn't give anyone a reason to acuse you of grave robbing
