										I'm looking for a place to take an acquaintance to teach him how to pan for gold.  Probably within 20-30 miles of Yreka, CA, Siskiyou County.  He has a small Dodge car with good ground clearance so obviously no four wheeling.  So I'm pretty sure he can't get into the nearby GPAA Claims around Humbug Creek.  I don't have a current MineCache active/inactive claim map overlay and the LR2000 is problematic to use.  Are there other or better resources so we aren't trespassing on active claims  Does ... |  |  |  | 0 | 7236 | 13 Apr 2024 07:38 PM |

										So this is one of those brain farts you have when you are wide awake at 3 am. But with personal drones and little cameras coming way down in price. Has anyone used one to prospect I would think in steep terrain it would come in handy to follow veins of Quartz or prospect terrain before making a steep climb. |  |  |  | 14 | 75107 |  by    Oran Kangas  22 Apr 2022 12:32 AM |

										Not every gold rush changes the world like the California gold rush, the Yukon gold rush, or the Black Hills gold rush. Some simply change the history of a region and become part of the local character and lore. American examples of such include the Carolina gold rush and the Georgia gold rush. But for Finland and Russia, this gold rush is the Lapland gold rush, a rather obscure point of history for both of those countries, but one of immense significance and importance for gold hunters around t... |  |

Because I promised the finder I would not reveal who found it or where, I have remained mostly silent.
