Saying hello from Washington...Cool site here with a TON of info...My boy (13) has been bit with the media gold fever..He loves the recent shows on TV...Anyways, he did real good on his grades this term so we helped him buy a sluice box. Damn its alot of work digging, classifying, sluicing, panning but real fun.

We have been treasure hunters for ever, beach combing, arrowhead hunting, rock hounding, golf ball hunting etc. etc..We are planning on getting a membership to our state prospector club (WPMA) to help support the activity and hopefully learn some tricks of the trade along with access to some producing claims..

Here are some photos from our outing yesterday...No color found but great exercise! Who needs a gym membership!

I just joined recently myself. Saw you were in WA as well. Weather will be getting better and the snow will melt, making it easier to get out for all these hobbies. Yes, panning and classifying can take some work..and luck, but it's fun to get out regardless if you see the flour or not. Keep having fun!
