Fever confirmed 7330 8
Started by kevn4332@yahoo.com
Ok, So yesterday was my official breaking of ground in search of the good stuff. That's as greenhorn as it gets right. I went on a GPAA claim in San Bernardino Mts.(Yes I'm a member) I went there the week before but couldn't find the claim. This time I went straight to it. Anyways, I went into the thick of it and could see spots that others had dug. I looked at the terrain and didn't go to the current dried up stream flows but looked at it with a longer timeline.... Then I picked a spot and sta...

Hey all,
My name is Dan. I've been in the GPAA for a few years, but I am a new member to LDMA. I'm taking my mom with me this week to Italian bar from Los Angeles. We're renting an RV and driving up on Wednesday.

Highbanker question - shut down or not? 8192 5
Started by rhunt01@ius.edu
Hi:
I just finished my new highbanker and did my first test run. See it run at https://www.youtube.com/watchv=n9vMd3IXsu8
If I needed to take 15-20 minutes to gather more material, is it better to shut down or let it run. My concern is that the surge of shutting down would blow out material. On the other hand if I run for a long period without feeding, do I risk losing gold I am using deep V matting on the top 2/3 and vortex on the lower 1/3. Third option i...

Video Uploads and Online Publications 3467 1
Started by senorclay2@gmail.com
I just read an issue of Gold Prospectors magazine using the new Online Publications feature. When I got used to the way to navigate and size the pages, I soon got the hang of it. I like it a lot. I do receive the magazine and will continue to do so for when I might want to review an article in the field where I might not have access to the internet. But, using the new feature was nice too. I highly recommend it. The opportunity to post video files is going to be interesting. I look forward ...

Bought a new blower today from Lowe's. It's a Paulson 200mph Leaf blower. I do not believe it has a way to set the throttle to a steady setting while shoveling in the dirt. Does anybody have experience with this and some advice for a rookie

Started by cahorders@gmail.com
I'm a very new GPAA member living in south Alabama and I've never found a speck of gold. I'm biting at the bit to take a trip to the mountain area around GA, SC and NC - about 6 to 12 hours away. I went once years ago (armed with a toy gold pan) and spent the whole day just trying to find a spot. I felt like a dog sniffing over hours for the perfect spot to do its business. I found a river bank off of a main road filled with garbage and debris and tried my ...

Hello all,
This is my first post and first time being a member of GPAA. After watching Tom Massie for a very long time on the Outdoor Channel, and wanting to join this grand organization I was able to do so this year. As I said I have been a fan of the Gold Fever show for a long time, but never really could afford to join the GPAA until this year. Things have changed a bit for me over the years. My oldest son is moving off to college this month. My daughter is a se...

There are regular GPAA claims in that area too. And look at the long line of Duisenburg Auction item postings. Us regular GPAA members have cash too you know
