I did some prospecting in the Tushar mountains of Utah the end of October. Not much water flowing in the streams but the weather was great. Right around 62 degrees at 7000 ft. I was on my way down the mountain when I noticed an area that had some good looking material. It was getting late so I screened two 5 gal. buckets down to 1/2 inch. I processed the two buckets this weekend in my mini-highbanker using a recirculating set up. The yield wasn't too bad for the area. I'm tempted to go back but we have had snow at the upper elevations to the point that some of the ski resorts have opened early. Hmmm? Where did I put those snow chains? :wink:

A couple of pics. Not great but still pretty!

The weather hasn't been to bad for the last week. I'm hoping it stays that way until next week and I'm going to take one more trip down there. I'll keep you all posted. :thumbsup:
