Uncle Ron 1,491 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Yo All...The weather is just awesome right now here in the big AZ so I scooted back out to a little gully at the LSD that's been really good to me for 2012 ... It's so small that I really thought I'd de-dinkerized the short length, but by slowing down with the Joey on my 4500 I hit a butt-load of targets, including this exactly one gram beauty.. It was down about 10" ... Guess I'll get back out with a larger coil for some of the deeper ground ... Workin' on my tan, too! ... Cheers, Yer Unc in the Dubyah Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sonoran Dave 2,146 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Congratulations! My biggest peice so far only came in at .5 gramSpeed seems to be a big factor in success these days, too fast and lots of targets are missed. At least thats what i'm picking up from you experts Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Al C 0 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 WTG, Ron. Thanks for sharing. Thought you said you got the last one from LSD two months ago. Gives me hope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lsymons 0 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Nice one for sure. Planning on coming out to AZ in April or May to try to complete one item on my bucket list. To find something that you don't need a magnifying glass to see! Any pointers on where to go as well as what clubs to join would be appreciated. Is LSD a club claim? Certainly don't want to accidentally become a "claim jumper". Any and all information would be most helpful for sure. Also, are Atv's allowed on LSD? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GlennM 93 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 No one had responded, so I will...Lsymons,LSD stands for Little San Domingo and it is a dry placer area northwest of Phoenix near Lake Pleasant and Wickenburg, AZ.There are claims all over the place. To get on several in the area, joining GPAA is a good start and will open up hundreds of claims across the US.Other areas are Lynx Creek, which is another placer area, but has a free panning area that is open to all. It's in thenPrescott area.Stanton near Congress and Yarnell, AZ - again lots of claims around the bigndraw of Rich Hill, GPAA has several as does Weaver Mining District officer in Congress, AZ.There are many other clubs, but GPAA is national and Weaver is inexpensive. Most clubs around here are rather localized to AZ or the western states, and several have significant buy in.Good luck out there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
