Default What is the strangest thing

What is the strangest thing you have ever found in the woods while shed hunting (or just in the woods in general).

Last year when i was shed hunting i was crossing the creek and i looked over to my left and found a antler.......well after i grabed it i realized that it was a fake plastic ratting antller.....i was dissapointed!

Geez this goes back to the mid 90's but Dad and I were rabbit hunting and in the middle of no-where. I found an office chair. Full back, Arms..the type with the cylinder to control height. It was like brand new. On the way out I grabbed it and it's now in my basement as my old computer chair but it has served as both my work chair and my home computer chair before being moved downstairs.


On 2 seperateoccasions, years and miles apart, I have found 2 stashes of stolen bicycles. Both times I've called the cops so the kids could get there bikes back. The first time I was but a teenager and recieved a written commandation from the police force. I thought that was neat, I still have it.

I've found a few burned out cars that were obviously stolen and set ablaze after the joy ride was over.

Another wierd thing was an old cigarette machine. Remember the ones with the pull handles? I have no idea how it got there, because those suckers are heavy.

I was fishing off the bank one time and I hooked into something. I reeled up an antique fly fishing pole and reel. I took it home and worked on it for a couple of weeks until it seemed to work....I had never fly fished before so I looked like a complete idiot in the middle of the river...but I caught a couple of sunfish and had a blast.
