planning to hit the area in spring. there a dry creek bed going to try a little nugget shooting. i was on the internet and ran across a site and it show a mine over 2000 ft NW from the cemetery. i never knew it was there. going to try to find it. the mine got a bar on it but area look like it need detecting. here the site http://www.panoramio.com/photo/10793394 you see the picture with a mine on it click on it open to a bigger picture then maximize it for a good view of area.

Did you get permission to hunt there? Most, or all, of that area is either private land or owned my Rio Tinto Mining.........pretty much the whole mountain's mineral rights are claimed by Rio Tinto or somebody.
