Yep, Not gold country but there is good rockhounding up there. Nice camping spots north of Davis Creek. Hit the Forest Service office in Lakeview for a map.
North of Plush, Oregon is 40 acres of BLM land to camp on and hunt for sunstones.
There are other spots near Cedarville. Check out the rockhounding books for locations.

Excellent for obsidian, including rainbow, snowflake, gold and silver sheen, royal purple, etc. Sorry, no gold.

If i want a gold trip from here in Vancouver WA it is atleast a 6 hour trip unless i go to Quartz ville then its ONLY 3.5 hours. this time it will be a 7 hour drive for the gold and then another 5 hour drive after that for Obsidian and then an 8 hour trip home.
