Popular Post IdahoPeg Posted July 10, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2016 Beat the potential skunk Brian was dealing with on his previous post too, but one hour earlier!? Was slipping and sliding on a steep slope all day, but nothing but square nails and a bit of lead.....then at about 3, as I was making my way back up, I got another target. Moved some rocks and dug, figuring it's going to be my Zillionth square nail....so I looked up to the sky, sweat stinging my eyes, and asked the Gold God for just a baby piece of CA gold to start my nugget-hunting vacation with. And Holy Crap! This beautiful rough CA slug plops into my hand! Biggest I ever found! So said my thanks and called it a day(after checking my hole for possible little brothers, of course! lol) 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
