These are pictures taken as a screen shot from my mobile telephone. I arrive in California July 19th. Though, these are photographs of a location an entire days driving distance from the Bay Area. Because the BLM told me any prospecting for claims in San Francisco County is not allowed, I started researching locations in Nevada, Arizona, and the Sierra Nevada Mountains for hiking. I will only be in SF for a few hours to get my rental car on the 19th. I am driving to Elko, Nevada the same day. I will not be back to SF until later on the 23rd. I am heading back to Boston on the 24th. So, thanks for the offer. Unless you are interested in driving to Nevada for four days, I will be skipping the mining in the CA Gold Fields and heading 8 - 12 hours East. Again, these pictures are 500 -1000 miles from the Bay Area. Jon

Why not land in Nevada? I'm trying to understand why you would drive right through gold country to end up prospecting in Nevada?
