You make a very good point! I believe that you are correct in your leaning towards that the outcropping of Sugar Quartz with Gold in it, must in fact be below a point where any eroded out Gold would end up in the pond. That in itself should clear a lot of area that a person might have searched but now knows that the Gold deposit(s) should be below any areas where the Gold would end up in the pond. From when I earlier searched out this area on Google Maps, that is a lot of land that a person could have wasted time on searching.

I'm with ya on this, looking at the map starting at the waterfall up to the first lake is where I'd start. Be nice like Mark said to hitch a ride up to that point.
It appears to be ~2,000' elevation gain from Lime creek up to the waterfall area and only ~ 1.00 miles.
If any of you are familiar with Hanging lake in Glenwood Springs, it about a mile long trail with an elevation gain of a little over 1,000'. It took me an hour to get up, 45 mins down. So I expect a couple hour trip one way with gear.
