Went for a couple digs with my two buddies last week, and I’d say we were pretty successful. One dump was loaded with Saratoga mineral waters. Only 3 came out intact but all said and done there was 3 dark amber star springs, 3 dark olive green DA Knowlton, 1 olive green clark and white, 3 emerald green E congress and empire, 6 beautifully colored yellow amber E congress and empire and 2 dark green star springs. All quarts and all broken. Finally a nice star spring came out followed by a super seedy da knowlton and lastly a nice forest green E congress and empire water. All quarts. We also got a nice lime green Lockport gargling oil and a few other common bottles. Going back today to see if we can find a few more intact mineral water bottles.
The next dump we hit a few days later produced 3 j&iem monitor inks- aqua ground lip. A couple nice 12 sided open pontil flared lip unembossed bottles and a nice open pontiled rolled lip dr j Moore’s essence of life bottle, and a handful of locally common bottles. There were also some heartbreakers in there, including two different colored Townsend’s sarsaparilla bottles- completely shattered in the rocks, and a open pontiled emerald green umbrella ink with the top broke off. I don’t why we keep the shards but two of us always have. The third guy thinks we’re crazy. Just figured I’d share. There’s not pics of everything but I attached a few.
