Metal Detecting for 2 Lost Rings in Pemberton, BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

I got a call the other day from a young lady named Alex who lost 2 rings in the snow. She and her husband were visiting from New Zealand and while driving up past Pemberton they pulled over to the side of the road so Alex could made a snow angel.  After getting back in the truck and heading for a friends place she realized 5 minutes later that her rings were gone. These were her diamond engagement ring and diamond wedding band. You can imagine how devastated she was!They turned around and went back and searched for 1 1/2 hours in the snow and cold… but no rings… There was one thing I never talked about in my video below… Alex told me that her and her husband were very lucky to be alive! shortly after they were heading home they hit black ice and Flipped the truck…What a bad day!!!A few days after, Alex got on the internet and found The Ring Finders, instead of renting a metal detector she called me. We discussed the search and we agreed to meet,  I would drive her and her cousin to the location to find the rings as her husband was in a business meeting.It was a good 2 1/2 hour drive, when we arrived at the location. I could tell where she was making snow angels and I thought this would be a fast recovery, but I was wrong. Almost an hour later near the side of the road where they parked the truck I got a good strong signal. I bent down and moved the snow to see the glint of gold…Only a few feet away was the second ring. The smile tells the story! Thank you Alex for the very generous reward and I sent you a receipt to show that I donate 15% of my reward money to Children’s Hospital .OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAOLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA I Love my Job!Lost your ring?

  1. Chris, great video and great find… I hope you don’t mind me asking but I am searching for a good video camera that will also take underwater video. I checked into GoPro cameras but once I read the customer reviews (very poor service), I decided to hold off. May I ask what type you use? thanks,

    Hi Larry…I use 2 Go Pro’s and I love them! Great quality and to date I have never had a problem with any of them…Great camera…Best, Chris

  3. Thanks Chris.. I hate to pay so much for one but they appear to take great videos and you endorsement carries a lot of weight. Perhaps Santa will have one in his bag for me?

    Way to go Chris! What an awesome search and from the sounds of it you like that V3i more than your other detectors. I am thinking of selling my XLT and TS and making the upgrade. Keep up the good work and stay warm.
