Yea I love it John It's hot but the water is perfect and we have found a nice area with decent gold up on the bank in the shade. The water here is normal for this time of year on the Yuba We came out for a few days to remember what home life is, take the grand kids home and unfortunately we had a bunch of errands and, it's back to our home at the river. I love camping and swimming in the old dredge hole we turned into a nice swimming hole for everyone
A pic from last week
And a pic of the dredge/ swimming hole from back in the day with Wally & Linda Koz in their last year of dredging in 2004 before we pulled all of the boulders out of it
Then in 2005 with 49erMike, Vortrex Dave, Zooka, & Jim
In daze of old when miners were bold and environutz didn't reign supreme. Great pix a good times suckn' gravel, too bad we can't post them anymore in action,just results and such. John
