Chaffe 33 0
Started by postalpotter@gmail.com
Have yet to make use of my membership. I thought I was going to be able to get by with a monthly subscription. I now know better. I'm planning on making use of my membership the last week of September in Chaffee Colorado. Would like to meet a few members get a few pointers on how to make best use of my membership. Clean-up's done (for me) its time to get out of New Orleans.

Hi all! New member/new prospector here from Skagit County in Washington. Safe to say that I'm a pretty terrible prospector thus far. I've found a tiny bit of gold, but I've still got a long way to go. Anyone here from Skagit County I'd be interested in meeting up with someone experienced who I could talk to. Lunch is on me! Happy to meet you all, Micah

I have found few areas that are public land near old gold mines, I used a metal detector around one today but the metal trash was impossible to work around. I wil...

Plumas County Claims 480 6
Started by mikepanelli@yahoo.com
Fires have made these claims pretty much inaccessible, and if the fire doesn't get you the smoke will. Will be awhile, maybe next year before you can get to them. This includes Joyce in Butte County. The fires there are extreme and we don't want to hamper fire fighters. They have enough on their plate. Hwy.70, Hwy. 89, Bucks Lake Rd., Antelope Lake Rd. Gennesse and Taylorsville Rds. from Beckworth and Portola. Stay safe, Thank You just a heads up.

So I finally found the 'New' Online GPAA Claims Directory under the Community 'Tab'. I filed my report on the Gold Basin AZ Bahde 10 &11 Claims. I will go back and add more pics and perhaps even a more detailed report with more information. Afterwards I began to search other claims to read other reports and I was really shocked to see hardly anyone taking the time to file their reports and the few I saw gave little info or intel. I vividly recall many members requesting it, so I was really ...
