My highbanker cart is loaded, battery charged up and the sun is shining.
Sal and I are headed to Waddell cr. to see what the flood gods have left for us this year.
The creek was a bit higher than expected and our favorite accessible gravel bar had 2 guys running sluices and not much room for us and the highbankers, so we went hiking with shovels, pans and classifiers looking at new prospects. I ended up with 3 flakes and Sal found 1. Quick sampled several likely looking spots but no joy in mudville. A beautiful day to be out, found some good places to pack a sluice when the creek drops much lower.
