    That’s a good looking dog!
    I did not know that there is a gram weight in Troy.
    Gold is not measured in grams unless you’re a crook trying to take advantage of somebody

    136th thumb ๐Ÿ‘up. 4:15 in, I’ve seen a handful of videos of prospectors in that "death hole". California Gold Rush is one I believe.

    "That’s a nice hole you got there". Not something you want to hear when you’re bent all the way over a boulder….

  24. Miketheminer on July 20, 2023 at 7:35 pm

    Just out of curiosity…. the sluice winners are still patiently awaiting our sluices. Can’t wait to try them out

    I did this for years and the real rewards are the cool camping, bbq and spending time in glorious nature. I’ve found gold but never in big quantities. It was the best fun I ever had
