Best Answer

Go to a construction equipment rental store (including some home improvement chains) and get a "utility line detector" (specialized metal detector) for a couple of hours. Make sure you get one that is sensitive enough to detect a line buried up to 6 feet deep.

Scan the ground surface and use bricks, sticks or flags to mark the surface path. Be careful not to mix up detection of water pipes, sewer pipes, gas lines and other power lines on your path.

OR you can dig down to the wire/duct and follow it along its length. But that's labor-intensive, messy and possibly dangerous.
