I don't want you driving over here to my gold fields and discovering how easy it is to become filthy rich detecting the Sierra Nevada mountains. Well done Klunker; the vigilant guardian of our foothill treasures. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Seeker Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I had no problem with the link working....but for anyone having issues with it here's a link to the story in a news article from 2017. https://www.laweekly.com/the-incredible-story-of-californias-first-gold-strike-takes-place-just-minutes-from-downtown-l-a/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met Leonard Nimoy (Spock) at a carwash in LA. I have his autograph in a frame right next to my gold collection. "Where no man has gone before" is a good recipe to find gold in CA. You just have to find those places. Literally everywhere you go someone with a beard has been there before... 🖖 GC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will expect you here sometime between June first and September 30th but first read Mn90403s' article so that you have astronomically high expectations. I will loan you my 2 quart pressurized container of bear spray, a gold sniffing hound, a Jeep with the steering on the right side (which would be the left side), Your choice of a gaggle of detectors and Sourdough Scott. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norvic Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Thank You kind KL, I`d jump at the chance, the bears, the gaggle, SS but that Jeep nah nah, any chance you have a 70 series Toyota laying around? GC🖖 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am assuming you want the Toyota because, unlike my Jeep, it has windows, a heater, air conditioning, a radio and brakes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
