Pretty shire I'm headed to Yankee Jim/shirtail tomorrow will bring machete and long sleeves. Poison oak is not our freind.
 

And its out in force already
 

Sample first, then try to get to bedrock
 

That's one days worth in those two vials? That's awesome.
 

That looks like a lot of hard work but damn what a nice reward. :)
 

Thanks, kaz!

Your totally right, neo! Cant wait to get back to my hole, find the rest of the family :-D
 

Finally finished pannng the fines from mineral bar. Heres everything big enough to recover using bazooka prospector with low water flow
 

Pic didn't upload the first time

Was also out at Mineral Bar yesterday. Decided to try near the bridge down the river a little because my dad and I didnt feel like going on high trail back to Pennyweight. So far clean up as shown some pretty good color. Not anywhere as nice as yours but pretty good for the fourth time going out.
 

Have confirmed a good spot my freinds three years and still digging
 

I'm not tellin quit pm'n me people read my oldest posts

419,

Was up in your town over the weekend at Bear River. What a great place and the gold we pulled out in 8hours was amazing! You guys are lucky to live up there. Would really like to go back up there soon. I was talking to some locals and they were saying the only reason they were there is because the American was still too high.

Here's what I pulled out in 8 hours.

Very, very nice Dan! Deserves it's own thread!
 

Nice gold, guys! Good spots
 

Smooth as as if it were a drop. I'm six feet down in this spot. The small stuff weighs a little more and the black sand is like mini dice. Perfect cubes and diamond shapes.Tee hee Ill not post too much on this spot
