    Am I the only one?



    Ok so its snowing and raining and cold out, but I got the fever and need to get out to do some panning. Am I the only one? I got out a little Saturday, Sunday and an hour after work today. Checked out how high the waters flowing and found a nice little spot to pan with some gravels that werent too wet or under too much water. Classified material through a #4 then a #8, lots of small granite chips in the plus 1/8 inch. Heres some pics of the results of about 6 hours panning, enjoy!!

    Nice gold Gravlewasher . I have not found a single flake so far . I have read much but have little experience and limited time . I'm hoping for some help in the experience department this summer .
    I would be willing to brave some elements to find some gold . Thanks for your photos .

    INSPIRATIONAL INSANITY!!
    I WOULD LOVE TO DO THAT, BUT I CAN DO COLD ONLY WITHOUT BENDING AT ANY JOINT.
    WHEN IT GETS WARM, I JUST BEND A LITTLE.
    I CAN'T WAIT TILL SUMMER...
