Hi, My name is Bas. I live in Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm new to this site and relatively new to gold prospecting. I bought a sluice box a few weeks ago but have only got to try it out once. My brother and I have done a lot of panning around Salt Lake City but we have found minimal gold haha. I know of no places that are close to SLC with good gold. I know there is pretty good gold in Mary Ellen Gulch up American Fork Canyon, but the road leading up there does not open until late may and I want to go out on a prospecting trip no later than Spring Break, which, for me, is in the middle of April. I'm still in high school and my brother is busy with work but we're eager to get out and go on a few prospecting trips. I've got a much better knowledge about where to look in creeks and rivers for gold deposits, but the problem is finding a gold producing area. Any tips or suggestions? Thanks, guys.
