GET ME OFF THE GRILL, I'M DONE!

The last trip up to the Wild AM. With my gold hounds. Did a marathon this weekend. Started Friday afternoon ran till noon Monday, dig, dig, dig, sluice, sluice, sluice. Man am I beat! I think my honey hole is cleaned out finally. We had some nice foliage it was at peak. The weather Fri/Sat wasn't the nicest, wet and cold Sun/mon were nice sunny and warm. Monday I went down to the river at the crack of stupid while setting up my sluice I looked up got to see a black bear it was about 35 yds. away luckily on the other side of the river. Between the cold and my disability it's time to drop the skirt and end the tea party. Looking back on the season it's been a good one met a lot of nice people, great weather, wild life, what more could you want. Oh' yeah more gold! LOL! All and all I've gotten almost 12 grams of gold with this last clean-up. Now it's time to get ready for that nasty season, WINTER! I'll be jonesing for gold now for the next 6 mos. till I thaw out!

Definitely want to see it all in a pile or in a vial, spread out, poring out, in a pan, in your hand. No pressure...your choice.

Are you using Doc's mats?

 

[nh.nugget]

Okay I'll put it in a vial! That's were it ends up. No I added some coconut mat after the second riffle out side of that it's a stock KEENE sluice.

coconut mat

coconut mat

It's like carrot mat but tastes better.

 

[nh.nugget]

I can't believe you haven't heard of that! You can get it at home cheapo' it's a reusable furnace filter works like miners moss. And at the end of the season you can burn it and pan that out get more fly poop! LOL! By the way I put it in a vial just for you Jeff. And my take for the season less one that my grand daughter got she wanted to go mining so I took her and gave her my take. She ran the sluice and of course I had to dig!

I like the looks of your trusty gold hounds. Specially the Jack Russel Terrorist.

 

[nh.nugget]

You got that right! He's the master mind!

N.H when in that pay streak. Looks like a pretty constant payout. Looks like a N.H banner year to me.

 

[nh.nugget]

I'll tell ya, every time it just kept going and going like the energizer bunny. Best year I've had! I only worked a spot about the size of my truck. Hit that one layer of pea sized coble man killed it!

 

[goldenIrishman]

Well NH... If ya start going into gold withdrawals remember that we're just starting our dig season out here. You'd be more than welcome on my dig site any time.

WHAT AM I SAYING HERE?!?!?! Like we need ANOTHER "Snow-Bird" out here!!! Just kidding of course.

Trust me Irishman I'd love to be in a warmer climate. If you find a box on your door step with air holes poked in it open it immediately!

 

[Jeff95531]

I said it before and I'll say it again...
That's the best season of gold that I've seen on TN that was recovered east of CO and North of GA. I voted banner.

 

[Jeff95531]

Come on guys. We don't get a shot at banner very often. If he did better than you did this year (almost 12 grams), give up the vote for banner!

 

[triple d]

This happened in New Hampshire. Not in California or Alaska. Vote banner. And he did it with a sluice. Not Dredging.

 

[NEPADIGGER7]

great finds man!

You bet your butt, I did do it with a sluice! not enough water in the river to dredge as Triple d can attest to, some days there was barely enough water to run a sluice. Not to toot my own horn there were some dredgers that didn't do any better and worked twice as hard.

This is what life is supposed to be about. Relaxation, fun and some righteous gold for your labors with your furry friends. Life doesn't get any better, unless you find more gold is the exception-John

[nh.nugget]

Understood, would be nice but not necessary. I just had a great summer mining, it's my Zen!
