crescent city gold??? first timer

[mattisdell1983]

hello all, this is my very first post and i was curious if there were anyone near the crescent city california area? I am a novice prospector and need much help. I know the smith river can be panned legally and ive done a fair amount of research as to technique and general how-to and even tried panning today( even with 55 mph winds and flooded conditions), But i would like someone to show me and possibly have someone to prospect with if anyone knows of anybody or is interested or could just help out with their techniques and things...thanks, Matt

I'm still looking too but focusing on research till 8/31....when school starts and the amateurs weed out. Then it's boots on the ground!

Interesting. I would think anyone "school aged" would only be interested in a gold prospecting app for their smart phone.

I have just moved here and have yet to get out and do any prospecting... good luck to all and is there any local prospecting clubs near by?
