SoCal student researching the drought's effect on placer mining. Locations?

California State University, Northridge student looking for placer mining locations that have benefited- increased yields or convenience - from the drought. Specifically places with reduced water levels. Know of the San Gabriel River's east fork, but that is it. What days would prospecting be the heaviest and warrant a visit?

Will go tomorrow and try to make it to Camp Savage. Putting off San Bernardino indefinitely. Was told by Patrick Keene of Keene Engineering that I should stick to the San Gabriel River.
Found directions to the Gulch- "easiest path to the mine is to take the Heaton Flats trail on the East Fork." Please let me know if correct. Thanks again for your responses.

Not to resurrect an old post, but did we ever hear back from CsunStudent?
