Doing The Triple D For Some Color!

[IdahoPeg]

Haven’t had any luck with the 6000 on some club claims here near Tucson, so went back to the old reliable Dig, Detect, and Drywasher system. Used the Gold Monster and my Thompson dry washer. We started a hole on one side of the wash, then worked around a bedrock mound in the middle. Ended up with almost 4 grams for 2 1/2 days work…better than a skunk! Good exercise and lots of fun.

Nice gold Peg, you earned every bit of it… and then some!

Looks like a blast Peg! And i admire your stealth...The four of you counting the bow-wows are some serious dirt movers!

That's some hard work, congrats!

I can “dig” it and the weather looks warmer than back here in Idaho.

It’s been cooler than normal here too…low to mid 30s at night and 60ish during day. Better than the single digit temp it is at my cabin now! Brrrrr!

Peg,

is your dry washer a manual puffer or 12vdc? Nice gold.

Hi! I use 12v battery, but it has hand crank too. Got it from Bill Thompson himself in 2016 I think…went to his shop in Redding while I was there meeting up with Ray Mills for some training.😊
