A couple of very old moonshine still sites. One in Chickasaw SF in west TN and one on the Houston/Humphreys line. A friend of mine found some silver coins. A 55 gallon barrel full of them to be exact. 
How much was that barrel worth??

you get in the middle of nowhere and you think you are the only person to have been in the area and you look down and find an old beer can? Pabst Blue Ribbon mostly
I am totally with you there whistlinwingman. I can't tell you how may times I have had that exact thought and then see the beer can!  and 
...the end of a ridge and found a picture of the Biltmore mansion in North Carolina.
That would be weird right there!

Well, I hunted until about 1000 one morning and then decided that it was time to head on back to the truck. It was bow season. My buddy had permission to hunt this particular piece of property as well.
It was a warmer October day. I had to cross two ridges to get back to my truck. As I came up the hillside and over the first ridge, I caught a glimpse of white. It was about 50 yds in front of me.
I start thinkin that this is ole Smokey Ghost and I just walked up on him, so I quickly bring my binoculars up and I look through them to figure out what angle I am viewing him from.
I quickly realize that this is not ole Smokey Ghost at all. It is my buddy and he is standing there butt naked and scratching all over his body frantically. So I do what any good buddy would do. I act like I never saw anything, dive behind a tree and I whip out my cell phone and call him.
He picks up and says "DUDE, I AM COVERED IN SEED TICKS!!!!!". I immediately stepped out from the tree and start crying laughing. It is probably my weirdest find in the woods by far!

Elk hunting in the mountains of Colorado, on huge wilderness area public land at about 9,500 ft. elevation, we run across a true "free range" hereford cow and about 150 lb. calf!
Outfitter guide said that was the first true free ranger (no brand anywhere and tens of miles from any private land) he had seen in his life.
By CO law, he said we could have both/either if we could catch 'em.
Yeah, and if frogs had wings they wouldn't bump their @zz either. 
We actually wanted to try to catch the calf and hope the cow would follow until we got the several miles back to the trail head. The guide wanted the calf and I wanted free range beef!
But we didn't have a decent (strong enough) rope with us to catch the calf. I blamed the guide and gave him heyul!
What kinda guide doesn't carry a good rope with him while horseback in the Rockies anyway?

Ummm...I thought Deloreans were made of stainless steel.

Your guess would be as good as mine.
