the area i found my nugget in
my next outing to my spot will be documented with the camera to make this better. the claim i visited today is the one my club has and i have permission to hunt there which makes this so good, and fun.they have a twenty by five by 7 foot deep trench cut across this creekbed and this is where i have been working out of. i cant believe i didn't bring my detector because this hole had a huge cross section exposed to swing a coil over. i sluiced two spots and arent sure which one i got the nugget out of today, but i think it was the deep trench i just described. the other spot was directly behind a huge boulder off to the side of the lowest creekbed. hauling the buckets up the path to the truck was difficult but in the end i was rewarded. what a great day!

the nugget was actuallty more like a picker...forgive my non-understanding of the terminology...and this pic does it no justice but you can see the color stand out at least...it's just too darn small! im working on getting more and will post again when i have found some... the dime is for comparison.
