Treasure hunting in it's many forms is one of my favorite activities. Almost everyone as a child dreams of pirates and treasure, only difference is that I'm one of those people that never quite grew up enough to get those notions out of his head! This is my treasure hunting tool of choice, the White's XLT Spectrum.
