4 guys 5 hours of back braking work in the hot sun for a total of $200 bucks to share lol. Nope! If the detector from the search coil won’t pick anything up then Move On!
Your absolutely right! but what an adventure! This was the place where very large gold nuggets were found. Never know - it may just be a short day and a big nugget? I do not do this for a living but not to mention names, one of my friends make 6 figures every year and works for 6 month dredging. Still not easy. TJ
Its not about the monetary value of gold,at least to e its about being out in nature,finding gold pieces nobody else will find,and being out with friends and having fun,that is the real value.
He's awesome! He has been now for the last 2 years up in Alaska finding lots of gold! I'm trying to plan a trip out there soon. It would be a pretty interesting video as well. Thanks for commenting! TJ.
great prospecting guys! yes what did you do with those rechid snakes? I live nrar there and surprised you didnt run across some green colored ones that like to fight😐
Excellent Video guys! Gotta love drywashing. I think you could increase your total clean out, if you got rid of the wisk broom& dustpan & used a vacume. Much faster&easier.
High Desert Prospector If we had one, I'm sure we could have gotten a whole lot more thats for sure. That's something that we may try next time! Thanks for replying! TJ
another great vid Tony. We will have to link up once I am back in az and do some MDing and panning on a claim, or just some open desert hunting if and when you make it out that way.
We did check out locations of the closest hospitals, and the one in Pheonix is within a reasonable travel time for treatment.If Tony the snake handler got bit, it probably isn't going to effect him much, since he's been bit plenty of times before and has somewhat of an immunity to most snake bites. Anti venom is also very expensive, and one of the reasons for him catching snakes is to supply labs with snakes, so that they can make anti venom. Keeping calm after getting bite along with some basic first aid can buy you numerous hours. We also carried a snake bite kit with us. All bets are off if we got bit by a Mohave.
