Hi gang,
Loving northern Nevada!
Went to the GPAA claim in Washoe County located near Pyramid Lake on the Paiute Reservation. First I contacted the President of the Northern Nevada GPAA chapter for the scoop on the property. According to him it contains some beautiful wire gold specimens, problem is, they are rare and hard to find and all I found for my trouble were several 22 cal shell casings. (photos of the beautifully mineralized mountain to come later)
So on to scout out some mining property near the Virginia City/Comstock Lode area. Contacted a local realtor and located a couple of potentials
Heading out tomorrow to get some boots on the ground high up in the mountains that spilled over into Nevada from California to see a 40 acre patented Lode/Placer gold claim near the mining ghost town of Como.
The area around Virginia City has some breathtaking views!!! I cant wait to find some mining property to build my dream "A" frame onto with a view of the valley and surrounding mountains, there already are some beautiful homes up there that had to cost way more than I could ever afford but a guy can dream cant he.
Gasoline is cheap there and so are groceries, even property taxes in Lyon county are some of the lowest in the state but best of all there is no state income tax
and sales tax is only 7% just like Indiana. I really feel at home here and will be most happy to make this area my retirement paradise. Close to Lake Tahoe, Carson City and Reno makes this area completely boredom free!!!
I'll keep ya posted......
