Im planning a trip to reno for a week in september to do some prospecting, bringing my pans, stream sluice, and equinox 800. I know that the girlfriend is excited to summit Mt.rose, so i know we are going to try weather permitting. Is there a reason i havent heard of anyone prospecting there? Iv been trying to research the legality, but havent found anything. Iv searched for claims and there are none. What am i missing? Would panning or running a stream sluice be ok? Or swinging my detector around? As far as the rest of the trip still looking for other places, thinking rye patch, and maybe check out the gpaa claims around reno/tahoe area.
