Tiny Little Nugget

[1515Art]

went up to the high sierra for a couple days of swinging zed around in the dirt. first day out spent the morning hunting in an area that looked heavily worked with not much to show for my time except a small pile of lead and a mess of tiny rusted iron fragments, the gpz can really see those even though i can barely find them in the scoop. stopped to take a break and eat a few crunchy nut bars and drink some coconut water and then headed back out with my zed settings different than in the morning with sen up to 20 and the thresh down to 15 (later i set the tresh at 3 this seemed to run even better). after about 20 or 30 minutes i hit a nice soft high low and dug this little 1/2 gram piece, wonderful seeing something with a glint of yellow in the scoop for a change. 

 

hunted the remainder of that day and the next with nothing to show but more junk and a lot of hot rocks.

Nice job, gotta love that refreshing feeling when it's yellow and not gray in the scoop!

Nice chunky little nugget.

All gold is good gold, and we only have a short time of good weather left this year.

It all adds up..   A lot bigger than the couple 1/2 grainers I fd.
