Wild Bill Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 Down steam from the bridge I meant… We actually ran two 8” dredges and a huge double drum winch powered by a Diamond 6 cylinder pulling a drag line bucket moving overburden. It was the claim next to the Lure. Yes we got away with that back then! We lived up the mountain behind the Lure. Had to build that new bridge if we wanted to drive in or out!

oldmancoyote1 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Sounds like the potential for something special the Summer when the water's down. Right now I'm struggling with my yearly move from Mexico to Dunsmuir. Once I've settled in and thought this out, I'll respond. 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/28247-sierra-buttes-geology-gold-mines/page/2/#findComment-296036 Share on other sites More sharing options...
