Looking for prospecting friend around utah county

[Mountain Athlete]

Hey my names Jesse, Im 27 and live in Utah county. I've been getting into this prospecting a lot and I love it! I'm looking to make some friends or find someone to work with at it. I'm always ready for an adventure, I'm honest and hardworking and looking to find a prospecting buddy. I have all the pans, a gold bug pro metal detector and i built a nice 6 foot long aluminum sluice.

I want to make a trip out to Nevada sometime soon. I've been doing alot of research on places to go out there. Anyone want to go on an adventure?? Also where can I get some miners moss that I don't have to order online? Is there any prospecting shops around Utah county that sell it?

Roger at Prospector's Supply should be able to help you out. He's a very knowledgable guy, and he may be able to connect you with a prospecting partner as well. I've visited with him quite a few times on my way through to Nevada and Arizona.

I know most of this thread is old, but I don't know if the store mentioned above is still open. Went there in I think June this year and the owner had unexpectedly passed away ( may his pans be full in the after life )
But maybe someone took the store over. The only other store I know about in the area is chucks metal detectors and prospecting in s.l.c. 1260 vine street.

I'm so sad to learn that. He was a great guy with all kinds of knowledge and expertise.

Thanks for the update, and all the best,
