Watch out where you detect

Bochiman

Going to Yellowstone and was going to take my detector for along the way (Washington State, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming) with the understanding that National Parks are usually off limits.
Looking up a few things and found it interesting that one could even be cited in Wyoming I think it was, with a MD even in the car, unused, just laying there.

Gotta be careful. Now, not sure if I will take it or not.....not sure what they may be along the way (I-90)

Ron,
I have only found legislation against MD's on archaeological sites or National/State parks. If you are traveling on I-90 with an MD in the car, you should be fine. Alternatively, if you want more authoritative advice, I would call their State Police Headquarters. I have found this to be an excellent resource for information in other states.
Cheers, RickO

MD's don't detect, only people detect

Rick,

Yes - the thing I was reading was to be in "protected areas" even with it in the vehicle....of course, if one is staying in a lodge in that area, on an extended driving trip, one can't just take a MD and then leave it off the properties willy nilly...even if one doesn't take it out, it technically breaks the law. I doubt anything would happen, but it still is weird.

I see your point Ron.... in the unlikely event it was seen, could be complications. Cheers, RickO
