Issac called me requesting my assistance on recovering his crashed drone. He had just got a new DJI Air 3 drone and was enjoying some first flights over Lake Sacajawea. He had collected some nice video of the water fountain in the lake. After a short bit of time flying he shifted his focused to a small island when his flight quickly fell apart. His drone got to close to some tree branches causing the Air 3 drone to bob up and down in the sky as it tried to fly away it just got smacked by some thicker branches causing a total lost of control as it cartwheeled into the ice cold lake below. 

A very disappointed Issac and his friend attempted to try to search for the drone wading out into the ice cold lake with nothing more than a pair of sweat pants on. Issac admitted he didn’t last long in the freezing cold water and had to quickly get out. They even brought out a kayak breaking the thin layer of ice and tried looking for anything resembling the drone but they quickly discovered the visibility of the lake waters to be extremely poor. A hook and rope was purchased with efforts throwing the rig in the lake and dragging the line in hoping to snag the bird sadly ended up with no success.

As a very disappointing last chance effort Issac ran a Google search looking to “hire a diver” and landed on The Ring Finders directory. He quickly found the Seattle Ring Hunter and placed a call for help. 

Once we started our initial phone conversation I collected all the details I could and was encouraged to hear he had captured the last known GPS coordinate location from the DJI controller. This peaked my interest as I am always very curious to find out how close the GPS will get me to the lost target.

When Issac initially called me the temperatures were close to 18 F so I told him we would have to wait for slightly warmer weather however I assured him I would not forget his mission. It worked out that there was a slight break in the rain with a bit of warming temperatures towards the end of the week so we set a plan to reassess the conditions the night before. After a few days we reviewed our options and the green light was a go for operation “Crashed DJI Drone Lake Sacajawea Search and Recovery”. Issac also informed me that there was still some light snow on the grounds and thin ice on the lake. I still agreed to come down with the appropriate cold water dive gear.

Come along for another exciting search as the Seattle Ring Hunter battles the winter shenanigans of Jack Frost and the Winter Warlock.

Lost ring in Viera

  • from Melbourne Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Jason contacted me from his sons soccer game at a nearby high school. His wife had lost her ring somewhere between the car and their lawn chairs. I arrived and began detecting the area.

No sign of the missing ring. Jason assured me he had searched his car. I told him that only a few weeks ago my visiting Granddaughter dropped her ring between the back seats of our Tucson. we knew it had to be there. It required removing the seats to locate her ring.

Jason used You Tube to learn he could unclip the passenger seat and raise it to access the battery. The ring was there!  My metal detecting skills were not successful that day but I was able to help.

Raj went for an early morning swim at the beach, and so to hide his key fob while he was in the water, he put it in a Ziplock bag, and buried it beneath his towel. His problem occurred when in a hurry to get back to his car, he grabbed the towel, and rushed to the parking lot. When he called, I let him know I would come right away because I know the county uses very good cleaning machines on that beach.

When I got there Raj met me, and took me out to the area of the loss. He wasn’t specifically sure of the exact location, so I asked him to mark off a generous area to search, and if I needed to expand the area I would. The area was fairly large, but I commenced my grid going pass by pass slow and sure to cover every inch of sand. I kept working, and then about halfway through, on the outer edge of his line, I found the fob. He was surely happy to know he could get on to his work with no delay. I was happy to be of help.

Lost Platinum Ring in the Snow Found in Grand Blanc Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

Platinum Deposit…..

…..When Adam called me asking if I wanted to go prospecting for platinum, I said sure but was not aware of any platinum deposits in Michigan. Further clarification determined that he lost his ring in the snow somewhere while cleaning the ice and snow off his car. Upon arrival I noticed chunks of brown colored ice that was in piles from being plowed/shoveled. Using my MXT metal detector I started a grid search where the vehicle was parked. I kept getting bad junk metal signals from somewhere in the asphalt, so I just ignored them as I knew the platinum would sound better. Slowly circling a particular area, I got a nice solid signal near some ice chunks. Reaching down thru some revealed his platinum deposit stuck in one. When I said I hit the motherlode Adam couldn’t believe that the ring was in that area. Thrilled that his ring was found I said that if he ever does come across another platinum deposit, I know a guy who can help recover it!

Lost Keys in the Snow

I received an email from Sheila describing how she lost her shed keys while shoveling snow after the last storm. They were in her jacket pocket, and when she was finished, they were gone. We set up an appointment after she left work at 7 pm.
Luckily, it was a small search area, as it was the coldest night of the year, 23 degrees. She showed me the area that she thought they would be in, so I started my search. About 15 mins and 21 cents later, no keys were found. I had to ask Sheila to move her car; because it was at the edge of the search area, and my detector was sounding off to the car.
5 minutes later, I had her keys. They were buried in a pile of snow & ice that was under the rear of where she had parked her car. She was so happy. She needs access to her shed as another snowstorm is coming in a few days.

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in Ice Plant in Long Beach…Found and Happily Returned.

Olga contacted me explaining that she had lost her wedding ring in ice plant outside her beach front home. It seemed like a search that should be done right away, so we made arrangements to do the search that day.

When I arrived Olga took me to the back of the house, and showed me where the ring had gone; the ice plant was thick. She then showed me how she believed the ring got there, and where she believed it probably was. I proceeded to search in the area she showed me with no luck. I expanded out in the direction she had shown, and continued in that direction; nothing. I was going to go in a different direction, but she insisted I continue looking where she thought it had gone. I have found over the years that sometimes our spacial view of things can be a bit skewed when we see things, and especially when all things look the same, as in a very large mat of ice plant. After finishing the requested area search, I convinced her to allow me to search in the other direction, and within minutes I found her ring. We know as Ringfinders, that searching “out of the box” can result, in many occasions, in a successful recovery. Olga ended up pleased with my request.

Don’t let the County beach cleaning machines take your lost valuable, call as soon as possible!

Expensive Car Keys Found in the Snow in Vermont

  • from Barre (Vermont, United States)
Contact:

1/17/24
Got a phone call from a gentleman who lost his car keys in the snow. He said that because it’s a leased car, the dealership said when the lease was up, he would have to turn in the car with 2 keys. They said it would cost him $250 for a replacement key! (Actually, some manufacturers are even higher….disgusting).

So, after work I went right over to his town. He and his wife showed me the area to search, and I got started. Unfortunately, their snowplow guy had come, so I figured this could be a long search! I scanned all the edges and the 2 big piles, and got no signals. So, out comes the shovel, to dig away at the piles. Still didn’t find it. I decided to search beyond the piles in the fresh powder, and soon got a good signal! There it was, about a foot down! I don’t really know how it got to that spot, must’ve grown wings!

I went inside and gave it to them. A very nice couple, and they just happened to know my father and mother in law. I was so glad to help them out.

Lost Wedding Ring Up Big Cottonwood Canyon- Found

Contact:

This was actually my last recovery of 2023. I received a call from a couple that was visiting from Florida. They were finalizing all their wedding plans and were preparing to fly back to Florida to get married on New Year’s Eve. They went up Big Cottonwood Canyon to take pictures when he realized his ring was missing. It was a beautiful silver ring with an opal stone.

We made plans to meet the following day to search the area where they had taken pictures. He provided me with some very good intel on possible areas to search. They were staying at a relative’s house about an hour away so I was able to get to the  location before they did and I quickly started to search. The snow was not deep and since silver is usually such a high tone, I quickly focused on signals in that range. In about 5 minutes, I had located the ring! They pulled up and I was able to surprise him with the ring! It’s always awesome to see the stress go away when presenting that lost item to someone. They sent me pictures of them getting married just a few days later! Congrats on a beautiful wedding! Check out the full adventure below!
