Found this video and link yesterday. It's just a minute long "teaser" for the film. Looks like it will be awesome.

Well he does put some new words to what we are involved in and out in own areas, I'll give the full vid a try.........................63bkpkr

I find it interesting that he put words to how hard we have to work for what we come up with!

 

[Rob in KS]

WOW, it sounds like it might be real reality
Surely it will be online at some point

Sounds interesting but I won't generate legislation for Our. Hobby.

 

[Sample Pan Dan]

It looked good to me, and yes bkpkr I personally liked his choice of words to describe how hard we work for our keep. Besides east fork is slowly becoming close to my own heart.

I think that's why I liked it do much. Real honest, faces,emotions, back breaking work, and Gold. I know nothing more about this than any of you, we will have to keep an eye out for it. If they choose to keep the language used in the intro, then I don't see it on cable tv. Maybe a you tube channel?

It's only a minute long, can't do to much prospecting... That' is a nice picker though.

And just so you all know, I have no affiliation with the video miner or anything else.... Just like digging near that river

The picker was the only thing I saw that looked good

I have mixed emotions on this one. It seems like every time an area gets a lot of publicity, the place becomes packed and then the authorities appear to regulate everything. I am not sure we need to encourage people to escape to the East Fork. More people = more crime = more rangers = more regulation

 

[bedrock bubba]

I have a rich claim on the Los Angeles River.

I need jackhammer to work it!

 

[Sample Pan Dan]

SoCal, I do agree with you on that. I just thought it was an interesting take on what and why, we do what we do. Lord knows there have been books, magazine articles, mining journal, news paper and fox5 news reports about the area. Reality is the majority still think we are all crazy miners digging for nothing..... Mostly because this generation does not understand that gold IS money.

 

[southern gent]

Why do I mine? Why do this to my body? Why spend so much of my life for that little yellow metal?
Well....of all the things I've lost money doing, I guess I'm just good at losing money doing this?
It's nice to talk to people who understand my brand of crazy. Thanks TN!

 

[Sample Pan Dan]

It is a special brand of crazy.... Most don't get it, the rest don't care. That's why we all have each other!
