No Nugget's just scenery pic's

Went detecting with my Brother for nugget's but all we found was shell casing's,barbwire,nails and a few live rounds but I didn't have high hopes so I wasn't disappointed did take some pic's of the area.

I’m with you Dave… the scenery depicted above is rugged and altogether lovely. Thanks Back-of-the-boat for posting those fantastic photos here.

Other than Lanny’s thread http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/metal-detecting-gold/69-bedrock-gold-mysteries.html we don’t get to see all that much by way of picturesque scene shots posted to this board. I think the landscapes associated with prospecting are a big part of the appeal for most of us. I consider finding any precious metals or other minerals as an additional bonus… sauce for the goose.

But I’ll admit that the overall flavor of my prospecting trips is greatly enhanced if something worthwhile is recovered from the wilds. Below are a couple of photo contributions… hardly sweeping vistas, but these recall to mind some extraordinary adventures and great finds…

Jim.

Actually it's the San Joaquin Gorge by Auberry,Ca the hill in the 3rd pic is Squaws leap.

Beautiful area, if not invaded by the BLM, and has some of the largest rattlers in the state. I have seen some HUGE ones in there...

That pic looks like the hill across from the Bagby rec parking lot up Flyaway gulch. GREAT lookn' bedrock but I've never been to that particular spot before. Thanx for pics-John

Beautiful! Enjoying nice scenery like that is only second to finding/searching for gold.
