Found this on a new claim

[jog]

Found this tree and it's root system over an old gravel bar on a claim I just filed. The root is big and very different. I would assume that this hasn't been worked anytime lately.

Hey Jog looks good, but how far from water is it?

Hey Jog looks good, but how far from water is it?

10 to 15 Feet tops. I think in the one pic you can see the water off to the right.

 

[Hefty1]

Can you trench to it? Or build a trough to the water?
One or the other i would find a way to work that. Good Luck.

Almost forgot, can you get your trommel there?

 

[russau]

if he can get a dredge in there he can get a trommel there aswell! where theres a will, theres a way!

Amen Russau,massive root been there for 100's a years ,get out the detector and test,test,and do more testing. Pumping water is no problem for that dredge pump but err on the side a caution ifn' ya can't afford the fines-John

I can get both dredge and trommel to that spot without a lot of work. I was just there and was able to dredge certain spots with my 4" and that was during the last week of dredge season when the water was pretty low. I think I can get right to it with the dredge if I hit it on the first week of the season when the water is higher. Might go back and take the trommel.
Hoser, no fines here. Federal claim and it's out in the sticks.

All claims are filed with the govt(feds)--you mean patented propertyJohn

Not Patented, just Federal claim.
