First Gold of the New Year !!!!!
Happy 2024
Locating Bedrock Crevices under Boulders for Gold Nuggets



Me and Gary @TwoToes head to the Hills for the first time in 2024 in search of Placer Gold Nuggets !!!!!
Will it be a Happy New Year
Mother Nature is working against us as the Snow levels have dropped to around 2000 feet and the temperature has dropped also making each rock and boulder a slippery death trap !!!! We both break out our Detectors the Minelab SDC 2300 for the first time in the New Year !!!!
Moving Boulders to find Bedrock Crevices by hand isn't easy I think next time we need to add a few more tools to the Jeep.​

Congrats on the gold you did find.
Beautiful area. Is that the American River? I used to live in San Jose until the early 90's. We made many a trip past Colfax, Eldorado, Tahoe, etc. on the way to Reno. I always wanted to try panning, but didn't do it until we moved to NC.
Only found a few flakes here, and I was one of them.
Thanks for sharing the video.
