Sourdough Scott Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Next weekend on the Yuba River between Downieville and Sierra City. We are having a outing for Veterans to teach the basics of prospecting for gold. So an open invite to all Vets. Or if you know of anyone who would like to attend. Contact me. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sourdough Scott Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 The claim we are going to has easy access and great color to be found. Plenty of area to camp for free. And AMRA (American mining rights association) is going to put on a few meals. It should be a great time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencer@wy Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Thanks for posting. Too bad im not closer, sounds like excellent event for anyone, but I bet very good for vets-as I find it very theraputic on several levels. I hope its very rewarding in more ways than one for you guys-good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sourdough Scott Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 We are expecting a full house of guests. Stop by if in the neighborhood. A mile south of Loganville on 49 . Between Downieville and Sierra City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sourdough Scott Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Well, the event was a success. We had nearly 25 veterans.And approximately 25 grams of gold found amongst our common operations. Met many fantastic people and forged some new friendships. All the gold found went to the Veterans. Couple of people really enjoyed and would like to continue to learn prospecting. Other were happy to cross it off of their bucket list. But I am just happy to give back in my way for those that have sacrificed so much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
