    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

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

    Matt, is that tailings you showed at Malakoff or was that what was left of the hills they washed?

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

    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

  35. Sara Jean on July 12, 2023 at 3:55 pm
