Edge 575 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I'm heading there tomorrow for some fishing with friends. I know the river is National Park but Is there anywhere within hiking distance where you can swing a detector? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frank c 969 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Don't even get caught with one, keep the batteries separated from the detector. Gold Basin or Meadview. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

frank c 969 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 In case you didn't understand, The Gold Basin an Meadvw. mentions are relatively close for detecting with some BLM and various club claims, GPAA being 1 of the clubs in both areas. Hope that helps ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hope that helps ! We spent the first two nights at the Lee's Ferry Campgrounds. Spoke to a Ranger about more primitive camping and she directed us to the BLM boundary 3 miles away near Navajo Bridge. Wish I had had more time to research the area before leaving Tuesday, plenty of areas to metal detect. Just got to know exactly where you are at and not get into park or reservation land. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frank c 969 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I just googled Lees ferry, I had it confused with a ferry point on another part of the river near Meadview My bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
