John-Edmonton Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Got spanked today! I hiked down to a river, only to find it was covered with ice. I cut a hole in the ice big enough for my California river sluice, only to discover very low water flow. Luckily I brought along the "Ity-Bity sluice, which kind of worked. I only ran half a bucket of gravel screened to 10 mesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valens Legacy Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Sorry to see the ice slow you down on this trip, but it is going to warm up soon and I'm sure that you are going to get the gold. Better luck on your next trip, and stay safe out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember my old saying and that’s A little of something is better than a lot of nothing. Best to you John! Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
