Would like to begin this thread the right way.

*Huge Thanks to Mojo, AUFisher, KevininColorado, DuckWalk, ALewis, HangTownDiggins, JB.Mining, GoldWasher, GoodyGuy, N8 and SchoolofHardRocks*
- without each one of you, I would be further from the gold; scraping useless black sands-
One day here soon, we will All have the opportunity to cross paths and dig virgin ground together.



With that being said :) This season has brought challenges and disbelief. With getting a new sluicebox-BGT 30" Prospector- and working new waters, it has been a Real fun ride. Even with the days with seemingly endless sun pouring down on my already burnt shoulders an no shade to find, I never want to come home.


And That, my friends, is why I keep treking on.

Peace be with you All
Heavy pans; Let's get the Big Gold

"Keep on trekin":icon_thumleft:

As for me..........

I've a sickness that can't be cured
And a fever that can't be broken

I must find gold or as feared
I'll burst and I'm not joke'n

The only thing that'll fulfill my dream
and keep me from gettin' old

Is bein out there on any ol' stream
and pannin' for yeller Gold

I'll hunt and pan and sluice all year
and when the truth be told

The only cure that I'll hold dear,
is when I hit that motherlode. :occasion14:


Go for the gold,
GG~

Congrats on the promotion. And you won't have to fight the crowds on Wed/Thurs.
 
TGP. Congrats on your new thread and promo. I will have some Weds off in August. Maybe we can go then. Was hoping to give some news about Purdon today but dry camping and the trailer lost all power. Had to deal with that. Good luck in your prospects.

Went to the north fork today. First time at Yankee Jims.
Got skunked pretty well... I scouted for quite some time

The only color I found was when I went sniping...seems to be a trend

Saw you were heading out to the American today. Good luck and hope for a pile if gold for you to bring home!

We did a little better indeed
 
Can't wait for the pictures!
 
Did you work the spot?
 
Had the opportunity to go out with a buddy of mine today to the middle fork American. We set up the keene around 750 and began moving boulders with our bar. We moved maybe 12 buckets and got a few pickers and alot of flour. Tons and tons of black sand!!

Cant wait for the next time i can lie down within the current and fall asleep. :)
