boulder dash 1,243 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well after spending a few months in Idaho dredging I'm back in az. Have not done any detecting in so long and it's constantly on my mind. Braving the heat I headed to a old local patch to see what the monsoons have done. After removal of the overburden it was steady small nugget after nugget. The funny thing is that I drywashed this stretch last year so these were all new nuggets. I had the most detected nuggets found in one day ever with 57 small nuggets at 3.3 grams. Not a bad 6 hours of detecting 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

goldstudmuffin 9 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Nice going boulder dash... The GB 2 is the king of the pea shooters!I'm not too sure how many SDC 2300's will sell at $3750 when the GB will do the job for a fraction of the price. I picked one up last fall for $150... it's deadly on tweezer nuggets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shep I went up past the trailer park quite a ways but could not find the gate you mentioned, I came to a big turnout and turned around. Second time I've been there but I seem to be missing the gate.

boulder dash 1,243 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Not much to say about Idaho except the gold can be amazing if you're in the correct spot. Seems like I drove around in circles trying to find a great place to work that paid more than 15$ per hour. The weather was extremely cold for this az native, literally I had to wear a full sized jacket at night and morning. Something about wearing a jacket everyday in the summer confuses my body. I did not take to many pictures just a few. This is a photo of 2 and a half day clean up... 42 grams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
