Newbie Gold panning success 28 0
Started by AZMouse4Gold
Just me and my hubbies luck: We're pretty new at panning and headed up to a claim in Arizona last summer. Hubby is working the dig. I'm hauling the buckets to classify the dirt. Low and behold! Success in one bucket! 3 small, golden brown, almost transparent scorpions! We hit pay dirt! Found 2 more by the end of the day... Not exactly the color we were looking for, but we called it a successful day because there were no bites! The scorpions were released a couple of yards away from us... So fa...

A gynecologist had a burning desire to change careers and become a mechanic. So she found out from her local tech college what was involved, signed up for evening classes and attended diligently, learning all she could.
When time for the practical exam approached, she prepared carefully for weeks, and completed the exam with tremendous skill. When the results came back, she was surprised to find that she had obtained a mark of 150.
Fearing an error, she called the instructor, saying &ldqu...

Had a guy pull up to the gas pumps around 11 am on the first day of the hunt. An older man with his wife. They get out and he is all smile! He says 'you boys seen my elk!' My friend and I walked over to take a look. We look in the bed of the truck. Look at each other, look at the man, look back at the carcass. Without thinking I say, 'your joking'. The man got a little upset, thinking I was making fun of his kill. I said 'sir, that is a mule!' He says 'dont be silly, its a cow elk and I tagged i...

Bear attack 1747 1
Started by Patfromoh
A fellow was mining in the BC wilderness when he was attacked by a bear. The beast snuck upon him while kneeling beside a creek and hit him pretty hard across the back knocking him over. The prospector knew right away it was a bear attack and did his best to be submissive and played as dead as he could while being mauled. The worst of his injuries was a rake across the face which tore away both his eyelids but he managed to survive and spent several weeks in the hospital.
The doctors did all th...

I got introduced to gold panning in June 2017 and since I was planning a motorcycle trip out to Colorado up through Wyoming and back through South Dakota to Pennsylvania , I figured I would bring along some gear. While I was camping on the west side of Yellowstone, I ran into a local who suggested going to Virginia City, MT. Off I rolled, with buckets, sluice and gear hanging off the bike. Once there I find a local who points me down a dirt road. I got permission to dig on a claim. N...

Yes land mark history is about to be made with this 3 party race, instead of the normal 2 party race that we have become accustomed to in the past, for this race will influence our lives and America for many years to come. So lets take a look at the players in this historic event.

Gold Shrinks 7750 1

Over time one may have noticed how big the gold looks sitting in the black sands and also how much fine gold there appears to be when panning. It looks as if there is a lot of nice size pieces of flour gold in the pan throughout the black sand and when all the black sand is panned out, a mystical, magical, transformation takes place, the gold shrinks.
Next, the gold is let to dry in the pan and it shrinks again.
Now, the dry gold is put in a gla...

Come on gang it's time to lighten up a bit here for it seems that some people mistakenly think that they have bought the super special presidential elite membership package, a.k.a. ' The Perfect Membership ' instead of the normal mediocre club membership.
Now I can understand their frustration when they find out that they do not have access to the ' Hold Your Hand 24/7 Hot Line ' which is always busy because 1 or 2 members are always hogging the line...

Beware, once you start humming or singing it, it will stay with you for several hours.

The following list of necessaries it is as full as can

First. Two pairs of heavy blankets,
weighing about 8 pounds each.
Second. A buffalo robe or blanket lined
poncho.
Third. Suit of strong gray woolen
