The Northern Indiana guys are planning an open outing at deer creek campground near Delphi for May 2nd if anybody is interested. I have heard conflicting reports of what the gold is like there but I saw some pictures on facebook recently that made it look pretty good.
Randy, we bought loads delivered by a front end loader/backhoe, about a yard each, I was told. You can highbank the beach or dredge the river for less $. There is probably a lot of crumbs left on the beach from guys like us.
Loads here were $50.00. I heard Lucky strike down the road was $35.00 and the gold just as good, but we stayed here because the cabins were available.
Jay:
When you say two loads, about how much material you talking about? Number of five gallon buckets is how I can relate? Is this one of the places where they bring in a load from the mine or did you highbank the creek?
