Detecting a drought stricken creek...

[trinityau]

Hello all, I met up with Chris and Shasta Gold Hunter for day of playing around. We headed out to a location we wanted to check out but it just was not to be. After meeting up together again we decided to go to another site. It was a pretty warm day so this location turned out to be just what we needed. After parking we headed down the trail and into the canyon where we found the creek full of water, more water than last year at this time. We split up and went different directions. All three of us were using GB Pro's and searching crevices for targets, then panning out the impacted gravels. We then used straws to blow away the remaining dry dirt. I think we all spent more time just enjoying the weather and relaxing. None of us got rich today, but no one got the skunk either. Thanks, TRINITYAU/RAYMILLS

Are the pictures viewable for anyone? I click them but they are showing up really really small for me.

Those stream shots are the most interesting photos, almost too good... too real. You feel almost drawn right into the portal to a prospecting paradise. Also frustrating for me since my season doesn't get underway until early September.

Congratulations Ray on some really beautiful character gold, I enjoyed this write-up as much as anything you've put up on this board at any time in the past. Thanks for sharing this with everyone.

Jim.
