Nice setup! I've been pricing rhinos and rangers lately for pretty much the same use, only I wish I could be hauling a dredge instead of highbanker.. Only thing that's holding me back is the lack of being steet legal here in CA.. I see yours is plated that's the ticket there! I'm starting to look at suzuki samurais now as well for this reason.. looks like a ton of fun I wish you two good luck and gold out there!

It's the only street legal one in Oklahoma convinced them it was a truck. Loaded on that trailer is a drywasher highbanker 2" 2.5" 3" and 4" dredges along with 3 detectors. I have a 1200 mile drive each way not taking any chances.

Ha ha! That's awesome! My wife and I honeymooned in Montana and we rented a rzr to get around, it was street legal there.. I wish they would make exceptions here for rural areas, heck theres street legal golf carts in my neighborhood, I don't see what the big deal would be if they were regulated properly. Would make a lot of sense and be very practical for a lot of folks..

It gets better I had to insure it as a motorcycle.

Water low but still able to run the 4"

Always better to have it and not need it than the other way around OK!

No Russ in Arizona

well it was "sorta" close!

Ok guys..... Russ is officially OFF of map reading duty! Sorta close is like kinda pregnant isn't it?

Don't feel bad though Russ. While doing research into some areas here I noticed that there were two claims with the same name and the same owner. Further digging showed that the claim had to be amended because the first attempt at filing for it had it located in the wrong township!

 

[russau]

just getting out (anywhere) is good nuff for me right now!

Okbp are you running a wetsuit heater on your 4 inch? I was trying to figure out what the small line coming off the hose bib was.

If you do does it run of the exhaust heat or is it a propane type set up. Some close ups of it would be cool. Looks like you guys are having a great time. Just had my green 4 inch proline out for 4 days here in Virginia.

Hope you got some heavy pans from your trip.

Thanks.

Good luck! I want to see some gold porn pics when you are done. I was just up in the Colorado rockies. I had to make an early morning run to wally-world and I parked next to van with a full load of sluicing equipment on the roof. I was thinking how crazy and/or dedicated they must be, since most of the upper elevation creeks are still snow bound.

NW Minnesota is home to both Polaris and Arctic Cat. Many is the time I've seen ATV's, side-by-side's and snowmobiles going through town! Some I see license plates on; others I don't. Never seems to stop them. On a good note, "most" of the operators seem to respect other people's property. ....MOST!

Have a neighbor that bought one of those 4-person models - said it used about as much gas as his full-size pickup!

Personally, my ATV has a mower deck on it.

Well my time on the claim has come to a end. What a great week here is a pic of a sample pan from last run. Now to find time to run 25 gallons of cons.
