Is it really worth it in Minnesota?

Wow such negativity....probably not worth it but ya get outdoors and see beautiful places its about the adventure......no different than metal detecting and finding nails and clad coins....

I find it worth it. Especially since my friends think I'm nuts saying there is gold here in MN. When you find it, you get to decide for yourself. =] I just got a shovel like yours matt, I went to ace and theirs were loose and a little steep for that fact. went to home depot and they had a 10 dollar one that's sturdy. I used a hand shovel but kept cutting my knuckles and getting irritated. I'm glad I upgraded. They also had a pick I was drooling over. Turns out I'm left handed with a pick and hockey stick but right handed for writing! :laughing7:
