thanks guys...went out yesterday also, got some more color,pics in another post....i will be working this drainage meticulously until the water goes away.the clues are showing that it hasn't really been hit since the gold rush. there were some guys working the area during the depression but, it looks like they were after the hardrock stuff up on the ridges.
