Wow according to the BLM most good gold bearing streams are already patented in Montana, plus there are 17,000 unpatented claims already in existence!

Looks like it's going to be hard to find any place left to claim there, especially when the BLM has no available list of claimable public land to examine.

Here is the best link I know of for finding claimable land anywhere in the USA, many other uses as well:

Quite right!

But the GeoCom link is still very useful.
