Made a solo day trip to the UP to get out of the rain and foliage. It's basically July down here and almost grown in up there so this will be my last trip until fall.

I re checked an area I found last spring and ended up finding many many more cans, all prewar. Blatz pilsner cones (much needed for my wall), Frankenmuth, Berghoff, Pabst, goebel, Drewrys, Miller. Unfortunately it looks like whatever side sat face up will be toast.

2nd spot was a motherload of deep trash pits. First pit was strohs and Bosch, at least 50 cans and a good 2 feet deep.
2nd pit at this spot was closer to 3 feet deep and IRTP black Miller and drewrys. These miller's are the nicest condition cans I have ever dumped. The pictures do no justice, and I've been saying for awhile how I've been wanting to dump an IRTP Miller. These cans are phenomenally clean.

There was also tons of scattered cans here too.

Last spot worth noting had a few post war goebels and tons of 70's sodas. Only 2 cans I kept here are a fan top rooti root beer and a flat top holiday, the older SS one.

It'll take forever for these to be cleaned. Still working on last trips cans.

Congratulations Ted! Been following on Facebook, thanks for the backstory here! Look forward to seeing the cleaned pictures!

Here's a few of the miller's untouched. Condition is as good as it can get.

Nice condition. Love that offset printed version, the red looks about 1/4” right as seen in her hat- great score! Ziphippie
