I'm relatively new to the gold prospecting but have a pretty good grasp on technique. It helps I grew up in a rock hound family. I live just below Hatcher's Pass in Wasilla Alaska. I have tinkered up on the Little Sue but have not had much success. Only a frog fart of fairy dust. Any suggestions to areas up there would be appreciated. More to my reason for this post. I have been looking at claim maps and other information regarding the Knik Glacier valley. Friday Creek in particular. I see two claims at the mouth but wonder if anyone has prospected up there. I am interested in claiming an area to use as a play ground close to home for family and friends. Any comments are welcome.
