Hi all Saturday morning and sun is shining but cool.Still got a few weeks of winter left.I dedcided to head off to a hill. Named Dangerous Hill during the first gold rush of 1851.The place was well known place for trouble, kind like a getto of the gold rush. The miner camps here were full of drunks, crims, scugbags and opium -smokers.Even the gold troopers[cops] wouldn,t come alone or unarmed.
Before the gold -rush this hill was also a camp site for local natives for about 30,000 years . There are well-recorded finds of these poeple found across this area.These natives disappeared before the gold rush by some 500 years. What happen here for them just suddenly stop using this site is unknown.Sorry i cannot date these relics but from what imfo i have , they date from 500 years to 30,000 years ago.
Washed out by resent rain or dug up during the gold-rush is unknown.All three tools i found on the surface.This area is not subject too Native Title Claim or does the area have any historical limits.So i can keep them.
