Where there is still room to roam
Husker #1 Outing
Howdy Gang, For all the GPAA members on here, the Northwest Wyoming's Prospectors Club (GPAA Gillette chapter) is having an outing at the Husker #1 next Saturday, May 8th. Since there isn't any South Dakota chapter anymore, we decided to invite any other members that would like to come. This isn't a big organized outing. We're a small chapter.

The GPAA claims should be marked on the edges of the claims although sometimes it is difficult to see the markers. The Black Hills Prospecting club also has claims scattered around the Hills and are not affiliated with the GPAA so you would need to be a club member to be on their claims. Many of the creeks run with seasonal water from snow melt and are cold even in July and August.
i went to the 4 claims in south dakota last year. no one was sure where the claim started upstream. i wasn't sure about anything until i fell into the water and found out how cold it was. then i did it again. i am really itching to go back to south dakota. the weather here in illinois is like summertime.
