Default Worst Places to Detect!

We all have had our share of trashy parks, beer fest locations and ground so hard it takes a Jack Hammer to get down 1/2 inch. So what are the worst places to detect that you can imagine?

1. Auto Wrecking Yard
2. Trap/Skeet Range
3. Aluminum Recycling Center
4. Graveyard
5. Sunken Aircraft Carrier

Can you add more?

Nude Beaches are the worst.....since nobody wears clothes, nothing dropped. And I never have anything on, to put my trash/treasures in

Hey, we're not hunting for clothes we're hunting for loot (notice that I didn't say booty). Patrons of nude beaches wear jewellery so there would be targets. Finding the targets with all of the visual distractions (good and bad) might complicate the hunt but I think it would be worth the extra effort.
A little hip pouch for your finds wouldn't get you thrown off the beach, Hon.
