Best GPS Units for prospecting
So a lot of the GPAA claims here in California are located on or off of forestry roads. I visited my first GPAA claim a few weeks ago and my friend brought along his Tom Tom navigation device and it got us there just fine so I was thinking of buying one (not a tom tom probably a Magellan). What are your guys thoughts on this? What is the best and might I ad more affordable GPS unit for finding claims?

I'm looking for easily accessible public spots where I can legally use a sluice with a decent chance of finding some gold -- anywhere as north as Paradise/Magalia to as south as Jamestown/Sonora.

Dont miss this one, a lot going on here gold panning tubs full of gold,prizes, food great people and learn whats going on in the fight to keep public land public. new mining districts in 50 states, it all helps in the fight so come out and show your support
he time is now to reserve your place at Oktoberfest. Many great prizes will be given out to those in attendance including two drywashers, 3 metal detectors and some NICE gold nuggets!

I am going up to Yosemite this October with the family and plan on doing a little prospecting on the way in and out. Currently I am looking at the Briceburgh/ Bagby area and would appreciate any suggestions/help. We typically go to Azusa in So Cal and am set up for sluicing and panning.
A few places to go in Cali..
Any Kern County prospectors in here?
