Finally hit a spot that payed off!

Sweet spot on the Arkansas River…a bit North of Buena Vista.

Fed the GC for about 4 hours and pulled in about 4 grams of clean gold.

I’m gonna post a full review on the GPAA properties site.

I wouldn’t normally “spill the beans”, but It wasn’t easy pickin’s.

…I re-arranged the river and blocked off a sweet pocket. The gold didn’t show up unti I got under the huge mineralized boulders. That was about 3 feet down.
….nobody is going to do that by hand for fun.

I traveled out to the Arkansas River North of Beuna Vista on a friends claim there for several years and enjoyed every bit of it ! Cold fast water . The owner's sold their claim there a couple of years ago ,and I wish the new owner's lot's of luck ! We had lot's of great memories there !
