TomH Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 jjWas able to go out today and do some detecting with Dad and Arctic Dave. First spot we went to was a new spot. Really good looking bedrock and lots of targets....just none of them were yellow. Decided to take Dave over to a spot ive gotten some nice gold out of in the past.We had to take the back road to it. Been up that road once before and hated it....I hate it even more now Its a rough son of a gun.Get to the spot and I show Dave where we had gotten gold out of in the past. We decide to go downstream and hit some tribs into the main wash. Dave hits a bench in the main wash above some bedrock. Its about 2 feet up and he finds a dern 1.5 grammer! YES!! He says theres another target here...scrapes around in the crevis and gets a .1 gram nug. WTG!!! Really glad he got those. I had missed them in the past because I just didn't swing up that high on that bench. Guess theres a reason for everything Finished out the day in the tribs and didn't find anymore.But, it sure was nice out. And...The good Lord blessed Dave with some nice chunky gold.Tom H. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonoran Dave Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Thanks guys! It was a lot of fun. There is nothing like scraping dirt, looking for another bullet or rusty piece of tin...and finding a bright flash of golden sunshine instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
