A Late Season Lake Tahoe Hunt

[oldmxrat]

Not expecting to find much this late in the season but a beautiful, calm and sunny day so I figured no better way to spend the day.
Found more than I expected, but didn't get any precious metals. $6.45 in clad, a No Cash Value token, a 12ga headstamp, a junk ring, two junk earrings and some of the usual bits of trash. Not shown are the 40-50 pull tabs I brought up from the depth.

The north end of the lake in the morning;

A little forest fire along the way at Sugar Pine Point;

I always enjoy a day in Lake Tahoe!

It was always so pleasant to head up to Tahoe on the weekends and camp when me and my wife lived in Fair Oaks back in the late 1980s.

Another good day of digging.
Beautiful location to play in.

Though the lack of PMs again is a bit of a bummer.

Just a thought: Maybe get a smaller jar for the pull tab count-then the gold will happen sooner 🤔 😉

Those pull tabs, arrrrg!
I quit doing the tab jar thing, too depressing to look at. This has been my least productive summer so far for PMs. Just a sign of the times I think. With the price of gold people have become more aware and are taking their rings off before going in the water.
