WOw that makes sense to me,Thank you Dennis. This weekend I'm going back and trying that! If it will quit snowing here ......Getting snow and wind today yuck.
Think of them Colverts like a giant sluice all the heavies will be on the Inlet side and what you are working here is the tailing pile with lighter material. The bridge is like a giant Dam stopping the gold and letting it fall out of motion.
Nope,no gold. Still got a couple buckets here at home to do. This I dont think is gonna be a likely place,but Im gonna try every place I come across this summer . I'm determined. Plus its just good ole fun to be out doing it.
Hi Lew. Nope I didnt find any color. Did bring a couple buckets home,havent got to them yet. Thank you for the luck also,I think Im gonna need it. Have you been out yet?
This was the same place I went back to from December. I did go to the other side also,but it was pretty deep right close to the culverts above the waist . I thought maybe this summer when it gets warmer I could really search it. There isint much gravel here on the bottom. By everyones pictures I always see gravel or the stoney bottom not here . SO Im thinking this might be a no color area,but I still gotta try . I will do that Dennis.
Wow That's a true Prospector :) You should try the other side of the Bridge where the water comes down the stream and hits a wall or has to slow, and when the water goes down grab the first few feet of them tunnels (colverts?) Dennis
