How to snip for gold

All you have to do is make sure there is nothing downstream that will hurt you - if there is, I don't work their. A weight belt is a non starter when you have to hike a mile or two, with a heavy pack already. At 65, its hard enough, just getting my butt out! After years of carrying around a first aid kit, I have realized that most injuries are to small or to large for them. Now all I carry a clean rag and a small roll of duct tape.
 

Nothing beats a day on the river sniping for gold. Thanks for sharing the great time. Panner59

I hope you got a clean rag so I can go out again !!!
 

Grab your hard hat and lets go! And bring a note from the doc that says you can take another rock to the head.
 

Doc said wear a hard hat !!!! and bring a clean rag !!!!
 

Fun informative video for people wanting to try this.It is almost the same way when pulling civil war bullets out of cracks in creeks . The cracks catch the heavy stuff.
 

Sniping?........ My knees just will not do that any more......... If I was a horse they would have to shoot me.......:laughing7:
