    Headed to AZ in March. Will be camping, moving around the state and hopefully get some detecting done. It is tough to plan all this from Florida and I certainly don't want to break any laws or claim jump. I am hoping a local can point me in the right direction. I will be armed with AT Pro and snakeboots. High hopes to find a nugget but mostly looking forward to at least being in an area where they CAN be found. Thanks in advance!

    I was in AZ in Mar and April last year and did a little prospecting on Gold Flatz 1, 2 west of Phoenix. I was kicking myself for not bringing a detector with me. It looks like a prime claim for some chunky gold. The most aggravating part of the trip is when I saw Kevin Hoagland's Where's the Gold? in the July/August edition of Gold Prospectors Magazine, I was prospecting in the two best areas he suggested. May be worth your while to check it out. I know I will the next time I get in the Phoenix area.

    If your in the Quartzsite AZ area or pass through it stop and visit the Miners Depot. The Quartzsite Metal Detector club provides access to a very large membership with a wealth of knowledge.
