Great to see legit nuggets coming out of CO ground! My biggest piece found is also from the area between Alma and Fairplay...although nowhere near as big as the ones you just shared. Still some hot ground in that area and a few big commercial AU placer mines to prove it 😀

My wife has been wanting to set up a weekend for me to join him. He always had big tales to tell, but no proof. Now I may have to try a little harder to find time to meet up with him....:)
