A Few Bits

[Bishop]

yesterday i got out with the 6k for a 4 hour hunt on an old patch i found 27 years ago or so and
was able to find an extension of it. got 4 for the day.the biggest on on top was the last one of the day.
 the other nuggets in the pic are recent finds. mostly with the 6 but a few crumbs with the monster.
a lot of my hunts only seem to be 1 or 2 bits and that's it.
the 2nd pic is me looking rough after a hot hunt. my buggy,  set up for prospecting.

You're doing very well, I love your buggy, I want one! the places I could go with one of those suckers.  Most of my hunts are one or two bits too, but it's certainly better than a skunk!

thanks. that Honda is a goat. will go up almost anything. the engine braking going down steep inclines is amazing.
 only bad thing i can say about it is its a little spooky on uneven ground, haven't put it on its side yet.
it was that or a quad, and this has lots of cargo room. can pack 2 beepers, cooler, dry washer and gas crack vac easy.

I see you have included the most important COOLER but what is the GAS CRACK VAC more details wanted.😁

Nice looking gold, and I like your setup to get out there with.

Good luck on your next outing.

The only thing that I would add to your setup would be a tent just in case of a break down.

crack vac, mac vac. its a leaf blower screwed on a 5 gallon bucket with a vacuum hose on the side.
basically a gas powered shop vac.
not to hard to build them for about 150 bucks, or buy one from the mining shop for 500.
comes in handy for cleaning bedrock, i also use the blower on my dry washers.
