NEED HELP!!!!

[killerwine]

Heading up to a GPAA claim on Friday and was wondering if anyone knew if the creek on the claim is running....It's in CA, in Toulumne County, and called "Cat Lady. The description in the mining guide says the creek is normally running but it's been really dry... I'll be using my MXT but would like to do some crevicing also which requires me to have water to pan...If no water, I'll head off to my old standbys "Slim Pickens" and "Canyon Chaos."

GPAA doesent like the locations of their claims given out over the net! you should have known better! as a matter of fact if someone is on the property removing mineral,gold,silver etc. and dont have a GPAA club membership card and the GPAA prospecting permit, and the mining guide with them,cant they be arrested for mineral trespass i dont think i personnaly would want to get myself into that position!

I'm a GPAA member not a claim jumper...Just looking for some info. sorry... I took out GPS location of the claim from my original post. Now can anyone help?

 

[russau]

i didnt think you were! but thankyou for removeing the cords! its the other people that arent members that could/would think that they could remove/take from this claim. hope you do well at this location! sorry i cant be of some help or assistance to you!

No problem....Just thought the exact location might help someone unfamiliar with the claim give me an update on the water situation. Next time I will be more general about the location of the claim.....

Might try a call to the fish and wild life office in that area,or forestry office.

Killerwine, I notice that you are in Visalia, I'm up in Fresno. I am also a GPAA member (as of this year), and I would love to get out to one of their claims. I have yet to get up to that area, but am just dying to get up there. I would love to speak with you more on your GPAA experiences, and who knows maybe we can meet up out there one of these days. I have sent you a PM with more details.

one thing i do when im trying to find out something about a area. i call the local fire department and ask those guys. they are all over the area and know just about everyone."usually" they can and will help you out. plus theyll know where the good places to eat are. hope this helps you out.

 

[killerwine]

Good idea...I will try it out. Does anyone know if Deer Creek is running? Guess I'll find out tomorrow....

In the future, this might help you. Even if your creek isn't indicated, a nearby creek might provide you some useful information on flows, etc
