That is a lot of panning, I'm going to bet.
How much material do you think you moved?
Looks good though.
Always prettiest in the pan.

It's cool to see when people find gold by prospecting. I just don't have the patience for it though.

I'm from Md./Va. and one of the first things I did when I got here was explore the motherlode. One of my first friends was a gold prospector. He drug me all over the hills, looking for gold. The problem was he would'nt stop long enough for me to dig in. So, I took notes and went back on my own time and had good results. I've learned alot since then. My problem is choosing the forsure smaller stuff, or the iffy spots that have bigger nuggets. In those areas I can work for days and not find a flake. Then the next day, I get 1/4 ouncer. I always take my newbies to the first area so they do'nt get disapointed.tymcmurray said:
