Recommendations for equipment retailers in So. California? 8752 5
Started by jlocke1970@att.net
I am looking for equipment retailers in the Southern California area, specifically the Riverside, San Bernardino areas.
I really cannot recall ever seeing any around. General prospecting and/or metal detector sales.
Figured I'd throw the question out there and see if anyone had any ideas.
Thanks everyone!

clean up claims please 7491 7
Started by atedoe@hotmail.com
New member and fresh prospector, I was excited to go out to the nancy claim and find some color. Got there to find a lot of garbage. I mean trash! I found some fines and flake but was very disappointed to see the state of this claim. I will be bringing an extra garbage bag out next time and ask anybody visiting this claim to do the same. The place was awesome and will be back again. Thank you to everybody that keep these claims available for us to use.

Newb Questions 5503 2
Started by predden@ptd.net
I was wondering. I want to go to Vein Mt. outing in June. I realize that you have to work a 4 hour shift daily, but when youre not, are you allowed to pan or sluice on your own Can you draw the dirt from the provided paydirt or do you have to find your own It would seem that panning in the river would be pretty well picked over by now. Thanks Guys.

I got out of my car and had my new Fisher tuned up and configured right and wasn't 20 meters from the car before I got a strong signal, and non Iron at that. So I dug for a bit, dug a bit more, and behold, the lead wheel weight for a vehicle.
I found some foil, and a really old can, but I can't say anything worth while. I have it set to find a match head size nugget pretty deep so I guess out of the three most popular metals of the old west I found the least expensive one, I guess bett...
