South Dakota Detectorists

[HOOAHEXTREME]

Just bought an AT Gold. Haven't used it yet because of daily rain and floods. I have seen a pic of three nice small nuggets found with a detector. I was told it was east of Keystone. Probably any creek beds are worth a shot. Especially ones with lower water flows since its rare that people sluice or pan those areas as much.

jeff-gordon: You're not going to have much luck around Hot Springs as far as prospecting goes, you're going to have to venture farther north around Custer and Hill City before you find any gold that might be worth your time. If I'm not mistaken, there might be fossils around the Hot Springs area though if that's something you're interested in.

HOOAHEXTREME: let us know if you find any nuggets with your new detector! Do you have a copy of the picture of the three nuggets found east of Keystone? I've only prospected there once and didn't have any luck on some little nameless creek I was at. I would like to give Battle Creek a try sometime.
