Most of my trip research is done with Google maps and earth. Love it! Just got a program that links Gold claims, open and closed. Very interesting as I am told that Gold is more likely to be found where previously found.
Neat program and only twenty bucks. A nice use of Google Earth.

Our Colorado gold prospecting map shows there are currently 14,515 active gold mining claims and 263,948 abandoned claims located throughout the state. Of those active claims, 13,090 are lode claims and 1,425 are placer claims. Of those abandoned claims, 242,516 are lode and 21,432 are placer. Colorado’s 14,515 active gold mining claims represent about 3.3% of all active gold claims in the lower 48 states.
