  1. Thanks for the info I might just try to get out there before it gets too cold. Coming from Manteca its a 2.5hr drive. By the way have you ever eaten at the sierra grill resturant in Auburn.Great prime rib for $10.oo.That alone is enough to get me up there.
  2. Thanks Steve But I will avoid the auburn state rec cops at any cost.I would rather haul water a mile than deal with some of the young ones that patrol the rec area(no public relations skills)Anyway the rules say no digging above the water line not the high water line and some of the rec cops will enforce it.I was just curious about this dump area to get out for some testing.How far of a walk is it from parking?
  3. Hey guys Im not much of a detectorist but I do love to prospect,about this dump if there are nuggets there must be small gold as well. I have a recirculating sluice box do you think its ok to dig as long as I fill in my holes,is it permited to do so. Also how far is it from the parking since I have to carry H2O for my sluice.
  4. Hey grubstake Im with ya man but there is another class of people that are pouring tons of money in these places.I have been to only one indian casino and rest assure it will be my last. I have a few friends that go often and I will be speaking to them about who their giving their money too.
  5. Indian tribal casinos are raking in massive amounts of money,your money!which will be used as a weapon against your use of public lands.Its happening right now in the state of california.Senate bill SB-670 which prohibits suction dredging in Calif water ways has just passed the senate vote and is on the way to Governor Schwarzenegger's desk.This bill was wholly funded by the Kurak indian tribe under the guise that suction dredging harms the salmon population.Who knows how many other indian tribes are contributing to there effort.They have deep pockets and a vendetta against gold mining. The money that is spent in there casinos is no different than money spent on middle eastern oil.That money will soon come back to bite us in a big way.Whats next after suction dredging,gated forest roads,no more off roading,fishing,hiking,hunting.The federal and state public lands belong to us but not for long.The Indian tribes will soon have full control over our land by buying politicians in your state with your money! Now I have never had anything against the American Indian until now.This is war! So please take your money to Vegas and give to the mobsters at least they may be on our side.
  6. New to this board but have been reading for a long time,well I guess its time for jump in because I need some help.I have goldmaster III that I have think I am able to ground balance but I need to go up in gold country and practice could someone tell me what kind of places am I looking for I know tailing piles are good but dont know where any are.I live in central valley calif between stockton and modesto so I have access all around me.I dont expect anyone to give up their favorite hunting grounds ( although I would like to follow grubstake or reno mike around for a day) Anyway any helpwould much appreciated..TIA...CREEKHUNTER
