    So on mother's day the wife and I went to gold basin AZ claim. And found our greatest find ever using our keen puffer and our t2 detector we found a half oz of chunky and fine gold then something amazing happened we found a 2oz gold nugget specimen. What a day. Thank you GPAA we are booked for life now. Lol on a sad note there was a guy camped just behind the main camp and he left a lot of trash I didn't pick it up because in the bag was a knife and some clothes and other things that looked weird. Need advice should I pick it up or should I have the authorities come out. Any input is appreciated.

    Out at another claim in AZ, there was a similar situation with a guy camping out at a claim and leaving his trash and junk everywhere for months. We didn't touch any of his belongings because we didn't know what he all could've had in his tent. He knew he was not supposed to be there and as Joseph said, call the Sheriffs and notify them asap! I would also suggest if you get back out to the gold basin claim anytime soon, and see the guy is still there leaving his junk, call the Sheriffs again. Also, that's amazing you found all that gold Good job! Ill have to head out there soon.

    Metal detector is about worthless out there...burned pieces of foil left by idiots to blow all over the desert polluting every wash..and all the bottles and garbage found all over the claims is a disgrace.
