Rye patch

Will be starting prospecting tomorrow,getting in northwest of imlay
 

Rye Patch, also known as Majuba Placers, is a checkerboard of public land, most of which is under claim, and private land, much of which is posted. Please be sure of the status of any property you plan on prospecting. Doing so will help avoid unpleasantries with both property owners and claim holders.

Time for coffee.
 

Just got back early from rye patch did my homework thoroughly and here is the result:research was a waste of time ,entering the rye patch area looked confusing ripped out claim sticks ,barrel markers in an "make no sense arrangement " we decided to pull in to prospector camps and ask some guys where is claim free ground for prospecting,they were all very friendly and helpful,we been told most of the area is open to prospect,except property close to the. Majuba mtns is private and properly posted,a prospector club had their outing and told us the same.We didn't find any gold but some nice quarz crystal got a few good readings on my x70 digging a hole deeper than our arms could reach ,was a fun exploratory trip topped off at a Harley treff in Winnemucca!Gonna do it again ,taking my Quad next time!
