Here's Today's Adventure.....cold, Windy Snow And Shiny!


Recommended Posts

A cold NW wind today, however, had a good deep river valley today to protect me. Even got some snow......adds to the adventure. I used the Geo Highbanker. Being that I run it with a battery, I added some tips today. Enjoy the pics.

It all fits in a plastic fishing sled, that will float for easy transportation.

Got my highbanker up and running.

Tune your machine like a concert piano, and it will capture most of the gold in the first couple of drop riffles.

The lithium ion batteries manual says you could damage the battery if you short it out. I use an electric control to manage the flow, and it has a fuse  in case it does short out.

The PVC plastic units are light, making it easy to move to  a new location.

After my first cleanup, I was happy to see some gold in the pan.

I added some miner's moss with backing into the hopper to protect it from all the abuse I give it and to catch a bit of gold.

And that pretty well wraps up today's adventure!
