LuckyLundy Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Four members of our group met up for some hot August gold hunting in some rugged country. SDC 2300, was the choosen nugget Slayer vs our heavy GPZ for the hike up the steep hill sides that we needed to scale with the use of our hands to reach the exposed Acient channels of the hill sides. Plenty of nuggets, but to steep of and angle to keep your feet under you and swing a coil without sliding down to the bottom of the hill and working you way back to the pay zone. Tuff earned nuggets, dirty tired prospectors and some cold beers at camp...perfect hunt! Until the next hunt LuckyLundy 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sourdough Scott Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Sounds like a blast to me. Detecting, comradere, and beer. The nuggs are a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyLundy Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 My old muscles still are recouping at home. This hill side was one that you had use your pick to cut foot holds as you worked your line. Then you had to dig a hole below your target so it wouldn't slide down the hill to the old patch...where have all the easy patches gone to...lol Rick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
