Thanks guys, I thought we got it all too Jim, but we moved back 5 feet and did pretty well. Then my last trip it completely dried up there, so I moved on. Will have that video up maybe next week from last weeks trip.

Thanks for the comments guys, im glad to be a part! I am planning to go to thermal this weekend maybe sat or sunday.
Here's my last trip from up there. The area I was working got played out pretty quick so I moved on to a new area to pan. Also panned some at the flumes and did pretty good (but didnt get much footage of that). Hope to dredge this spot this weekend if no one else found it yet.

Thanks Jim and Vic! Jim I might be going to Thermal Saturday to dredge but not 100% sure yet. Or might sluice with the bazooka.
Well I finally had some free time to edit video so I got done with Episode 13, which was from this past weekend. I went dredging and camping up at Thermal on saturday (dredged sat and sun).

Jeff, it was great meeting you, Will, Donnie, James, Jessie, and several others while at Thermo City, I had a great time shooting the breeze and panning with everyone, I wish I could of brought my dredge, I wished I didn't have to leave late Saturday to do the 6 hour drive back to S.C.
Looks like you did alright on your take, Donnie was killing it at the panning station, man he can move some dirt, he didn't stop but a couple of times for a few minutes, sunup to sundown, he's a dirt moving machine!!!
James (Sysbee) sure dredged out a crater, and from what I heard Jessie didn't do to bad with his small dredge!!

Yeah Skip we need to all get together one of these days and have a couple days of dredging and hanging out! Thanks Jim and Bob!
I have had so much free time this week that I got another episode coming up sometime today. I went back to the hot spot I found from episode 12 and panned/sluiced and hit an even better spot there. The movie is still converting right now but hopefully it will be up by afternoon or so.
Also I am filming a dredge combo build I am doing with all the rain but that might take a couple days to edit.

Astro,
Great video! Very cool.
Quick question for you from a newbie - What do you do with all the bits of gold? Do you melt it down yourself? Sell it?
Thanks,
- Kevin

Thanks guys. Kevin, I dont do nothing with it, just put it in a little vial for future viewing. Cool, so it's definitely just a hobby for you, then? I was thinking you had reinvested some money from the gold you find to buy the equipment. Regardless, it looks like a fun way to spend the weekends! |
