From the eastbank of the Mississippi, headed west for the first time. Staying in Sedona then down to Tucson before heading back. Any guidance on places where I might use a pan and sluce, maybe breakout the gold-bug pro? Nothing to extreme for us or the Subaru! Just a day or two of prospecting.

Michael,
If you havent already, check out listed claims in AZ that you might want to visit.
Water may be hard to come by, detecting always a choice.
Good luck happy hunting
Bill

Thanks Bill,
Looked, but most posts are years old. After leaving Sedona heading to San Antonio just looking for places between those two points. They rent drywashers at the local HD?

Try Lynx creek in Prescott, AZ. Public gold panning and metal detecting. It's also restricted to just gold panning and metal detecting, no power equipment or sluicing if I remember correctly.

Thanks already on the itinerary. Hard to tell where to start, having never been there and not having much time to explore. Is there an overall map of claims in the local counties?

Moving to the area. Looking forward to getting my hands dirty and finding some gold.
Thanks for having an AZ group blog.
