Unpublished Claims Online 8650 14
Started by dondorman@live.com
Is there a way to find out about new claims that are not in the current claims guide I am planning to go to the LDMA site at Burnt River Oregon soon and want to know if there are new claims nearby, or on the western side of Idaho. I have my Pick and Shovel Gazettes in storage currently so I can't go back through them. There needs to be an easy place to find the unpublished claims on the menus .
Thanks for any help!

Hey Guys and Gals,
I've been a member for a few years now and I have had the time to take ONE trip to the FARM in Ga. The Wife and I had a great time in meeting other members but felt a tad ill equipped with our little bazooka and a few pans.
Every once in awhile I get a 3 day weekend so the Wife has been trying to get me out of the house. I was hoping to find other places I can get to in a day where I can at least see a little color. I know there is the Alabama Camp a...

To Classify or Not To Classify 14583 9
Started by jsohlberg@att.net
After reading the article in the Pick and Shovel dealing with tuning one's sluice, it seemed the the writer's recommendation that classification is important in reducing the gold losses. My mentor, a prospector of some 30 years, assures me that there is no need to classify and, in fact, is adamant about dropping larger rocks on the sluice front end so as not to lose any gold that may be clinging to those rocks. Normally being assigned to the sluice box when we are out prospecting, it...

GPS equipment 7787 7
Started by Mikeminer80@gmail.com
Good afternoon all,
I am a new member and also a new prospector (really new) and went out to a couple of claims in Mohave County Az. yesterday. Although the directions were pretty good, I don't have a GPS so I wasn't sure if I was in the right spot. Need advice on purchasing a decent GPS either for both the vehicle and walking the area or just for walking the area. Really don't want to piss off someone by intruding on their claim and it might help me become friends with the claim owner.
Thanks...
