Hello, I have been down to the Prescott Arizona area with my father for a mining convention and learned a little about the Rich Hill area. I'm really entertaining the idea of making a trip down into that area but before I do would like to gain some 1st experience accounts from people that have detected down there. It really seams that its a pay to detect area do to all the owned claims but what's really the best experiences. Who really to talk to and where to really go. I live in Nebraska and would entertain starting a group outing this year.

So does anyone know good information of the Rich Hill area?? Good Luck out there.

Terry. I'll head up to sweat a bit. You saying after 19th?
Both visitors will arrive on the 12th. If they stay 2 weeks, you are more than welcome afterwards. Send me a PM to trade info and we can set something up for the end of Jan or into Feb (better) or beyond. You have any claims in AZ? TimC will be more than willing to help you get your very own using the info available using the LR2000! TTC

Used LR2000 to check an area I'm looking into. Saw no claim information. So now I'm going out to get current samples. Been 15 yrs since I've been there. So maybe I'll be trying to claim a spot or two.
I'll PM you on when I can get there. It'll be for a couple day visit. Looking to bring uncle as well. Would that be alright? If not him then possibly one of my sons. Good worker. Lol

GDA, I sent you a PM but can't seem to get the insert image to work.

My RV.jpg (FINALLY!) Save this image so you can home in on the RV! TTC

Is there another street called "shoot at" or maybe "Baga"?
So yours is the 2nd on the left? Is that your truck as well? The grey one.

Yes, second on the left. The 1985 pickup is there. If I am there, you will see a red (burgundy) 2013 jeep wrangler... my new ride! TTC

Not without dinner and a movie first! Doctor said indigestion. No surgery this time. (glad!). Sure, come on down. TimC has been doing alot of hosting lately. Because of the cancer therapy, he cannot keep up the pace the visitors are putting on him (he is weak). We'll do what we can. TTC

How about dinner and drinks? Lol, I'd be more than happy to cook us some pulled pork or steaks and taters, and Coronas and Patron go along way in my book! But seriously would live to bring the metal detectors and maybe borrow? A drywasher for a day or two? We can talk about it. Glad to hear you are well, send my best wishes to your brother.

I've got a Gold Bug 2 and GMT (and 250) at the RV you may use. I don't do drywashing but Tim does. I have a highbanker there set up to recirculate. We can take it to the site or bring the classified material back. Also a vac-pack. We have all the bases covered. We'll work out the vitals when you get here. Soon. TTC

Sounds great Terry, sure my buddy I've been working with would love to come, and my old work partner will be joining the "crew" in march when he returns to San Diego... If it comes to it could possibly bring our own housing for the weekend. I am grateful for the opportunity, you are about 6 hours from me, so it'll take some doing, more like convincing the wife :-), but I will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to coma and play and learn from some of the best in the west :-)
