Back To River Sluicing, To The River With Increasing Melt Water


Recommended Posts

Well, the little river turned out to be a bigger river, as the temperature was rising and the snow was melting. I had to find a new river crossing to get home where the river was more shallow.

I haven't tried this location.....so, that's what I dug.

Adding water to my 1/2" screened gravel turned it into a sticky cement. I prefer feeding dry material. I just drop the material from a greater height to make that flour gold punch through the water's surface tension so that it doesn't float away.

Wish I had so much nice areas that you have for gold, here is harder to find it, but when you do it is about the same size that you are getting.

Good luck out there and stay safe .

Sometimes half the fun is searching for those places.
