I forgot my detector at home so this adventure was just to look for opal wood. Which I didn't find any but as I dug about a foot down next to the waters edge I did happen to see what seemed like gold flakes but wasn't 100% sure since I was focused on finding petrified wood.

Check the BLM Saddle Mountain information Post for collection areas. (See my directions getting there) Last I was there were 3 locations open to collecting. Petrified wood everywhere on the surface. I recommend hillsides as water and wind naturally refresh scour zones. I used a BRoll 5 gallon bucket cart to carry my rock hammer and finds. Bring hightop boots to prevent painful grass burs in your socks.
