Keep 'em comin'!!
 

LOVE the video work! Great gold there.
 

You have my best wishes! I did it for 6 years back in the late 70's and 80's. Did very well on the Feather River for a living. Would not trade those years for anything. Legal to dredge or not, wish I was younger, there's still a lot of gold out there. Now adays, well I'll just detect.
Shep
 

Thanks as always for posting and sharing the story!
 

Well honestly I had no intention on being back this early but what a cool last few days (only like 2)

Love your enthusiasm and story telling MM! Good luck with the diving...be sure to keep breathing ( NO holding your breath) on the way up to the surface. For safety sake, think about getting scuba certified too.
 

Well MM I think all of us have this intent in our hearts. but unfortunately for me, it has been curtailed because of my back.im selling off most of my equipment, but still want the ability to go out on a smaller scale and equipment.theres just NOWAY I could stop this cold turkey unless I just fall over dead! I still like making equipment , but now for others to use.

Sorry to hear of your back issue. Mine failed two years ago and I couldn't walk 10'. Had the dreaded surgery and while not great it's good enough to get me out there. Hopefully you can find some remedy and get back in the game.

MM cool looking contraption. American ingenuity........
 

Russau.... I can only imagine how frustrated I would be if I was no longer able to prospect due to health. [/video]

Emissions/smog tests are a pain to pass. Where I live on Georgia's is mostly agricultural farm land and not enough people per square mile to make us do the emissions test. Most everywhere else in ga does though :)
 

Way to go, MM - 5 cracks down, about 5 billion more to check - you are certainly acting on the premise that with water levels reaching historic lows, there's good paydays down in the previously inaccessible bedrock areas. Continued success to you... :notworthy:
 

One of the better music choices and panning footage on the website. Good job!
