Hello all you AZ members of Treasure Net.

Here is a thread designed for one thing... Checking in and getting out with fellow AZ members. I see that there are a few AZ members who have gotten together and had some fun prospecting. I am kinda jealous. I, and hopefully other members from AZ also, would like to get to know our peers in person. See who like to shovel, and who like to watch shoveling happen... J/K.

I see some members are passing through the area I live in and I would love to get involved.

I will start it off. I live in Glendale, and don't have a truck. ( I have a company truck, but that is a big no-no) I have a drywasher, and a MD. I have my daughter every other weekend, and have the FEVER. I have a membership with Roadrunners. We have claims at Rich Hill, near Vulture Mine, and near Old Woman Gulch outside of Morristown. Anybody wants to set up a day of digging, let me know. I will be waiting at the end of the drive with too much equipment....

USGS topo map = Gold Basin Roadrunner. Just to the southwest of Meadeview. I was turned onto it by Clay Diggens. Our prospecting group has eight 20 acre claims there. To the east is an area known as "Lost Basin". Clay give it two thumbs up but I haven't done any exploring there yet.

I am fairly new at it. Was able to get a few runs in before it rained. But even new I was able to recover still in the learning curve so its driving me nuts having to hold off

I am still upright and breathing. After three Titanium implants, 2 knees and a shoulder and a trip planned this summer to Europe I wonder if this is a good plan with all the crap going on and me setting off every metal detector I encounter. I look forward in getting back out to do some swinging and drywashing, but I am going to give myself time to completely heal and i will not go out without the best heavy duty knee pads and vibram sole boots money can buy. :thumbsup:

Keith, I'll get you some cons to pan or something until you're healed up, the fever is strong with you and you deserve some yella!

Well he IS alive!!!!! Glad to hear you're on the heal Keith! Things have been slow for me as well bud. Still manage to get out at least once a week but this home ownership thing is killing my prospecting time!!!! We're heading to Quartzite for the show next month as well as Lost Wages for another. If you're up for it let me know and we can go have some fun man!
