    Chris,

    Haven't hunted there yet, my research , and advice from friends who have said the area around Slaters Mine would

    be your best bet. There was a large fire that went through

    the area a couple years ago and burned most of the brush out

    hunt all the draws where water has run at some time.

    Good Luck,

             Jim

      Jim, thank you very much. I have prospected on one of the claims there, ran a drywasher and did find color. just wasn't sure about detectable sized Gold? I also may try the GPAA claim near Pyramid Lake as well. If you ever make it down to Vegas, I've done a lot of detecting at Johnnie, and done ok.

    Hi,Jen, I have lived in Stagecoach NV for almost two years. It's about 25 miles from Carson City, so I have all the conveniences of a big city but don' t live in one. Lots of opportunities to detect around here , Mt Siegle in the Pine Nut Mtns. less than 2 hours from Rye Patch, less than that to Olinghouse , and in an hour you are at Donner Pass overlooking the vast Mother Lode area. Dayton NV the first place gold was found in NV is only 10 miles down the road. Virginia City is not much farther, lots of history there. If you need a Brothel there are 3 in Moundhouse. My main interests are amateur radio KE6ZIQ , I am net control for the West Coast Military radio Net which meets on 3996 usb every Wed nite at 8pm PDST no mil radio required to check in. And of course metal detecting for gold. Check out the Dayton ,Stagecoach , area it might fit your needs. 73's Jim Beeler KE6ZIQ
