New Club Members Options

[CP]

Hello Club members,

For the benefit of the newest members coming on board we put these instructions together to help navigate the club members area information.
As always feel free to contact us at anytime if you have difficulties or questions.

To sign in for your members area info you will need to bring up the ColoradoProspector.com
home page. If you have not yet set your home page for the CP site, this will be a great time!
From the CP home page you can find any of the website pages in the green area to the left, including the log in link for the members areas, News and Events link, the chat room and forum links etc, and then down a bit further is where the Miners Market banner will be found.

Now.....to log into the members area you will click on the very top link "Log In"
Next you will get a prompt box that will ask for your "Login" and "password"........Your "Login" will be your email address and password will be what you chose during membership sign up in the membership using the secured system.
Once you have entered your login and password you will then be brought to the main members area page where you will be able to see each of your members areas researched information.
Lifetime members will of course have links on all areas listed and yearly members will have links appear on only the yearly members areas.....those that are not links on your page will be the lifetime areas.

These directions should give you a good start and we hope you enjoy the website.

As with any secured sign in pages online......be sure to sign off from your session before leaving too.

See you out on the digs!
CP

Dave,
Now that you injected 'reality' into the world of workamping it sound a little less appealing.
I had no idea that it was so competitive and not so financially rewading... it still has some good appeal though. The nomadic lifestyle has an uncanny charm to me. Thank you for that behind-the-scenes perspective! I'll never view camp hosts the same again and they've always had my respect. Very intriguing career you have had too!

Scratch,
Welcome back to Colorado and welcome to CP! Thank you VERY much for serving our country, it's an honor to have you aboard. I'd love to do some diggin with you but the season is waning fast up here and it will be tough for me to coordinate now. My small biz is bizzy from now until Nov.. between that, my claim, and ranch-hand work my plate is all of a sudden full (which is a good thing). Andrew (amorton) and I will hopefully be heading to my claim before the season ends for a couple of days (not sure if weekdays or weekend) but you might want to join us for that if possible. I can PM you if you're interested once we square that away. I'd like to see the Hydo Force in action and have some spots where it could be very beneficial. I carry a Glock Model 23 and could definitely use some of your instructional wisdom with my shooting too!

Swizz,


Camp Hosting and Workamping are typically totally different reality checks. Camp Hosting generally is laid back & you are typically only working for your site. Workamping is typically faster-paced and can range from just working for your site to also getting paid wages. Where we are workamping now, few people crave to work in this part of the country so we get paid for every hour & our site is included without deducting pay. Camp hosting can run the gammit between just campground security to doing more work like collecting camping fees, selling firewood, sprucing up and/or cleaning the bathrooms - depends on the place. The campground we workamp at if I come in to get a drink of water (I have to pay for my own water here unlike our winter employer) I am reminded that he has to shell out $2 for every 15 minutes I am on the clock & I best be running a weedwhacker or lawn mower or be cleaning the bathrooms every minute I am clocked in. I also have to break free from slave labor every few minutes to escort people to their sites, but not too soon so as to not stand there for more than a few seconds while the guests are being checked in. My home is on wheels and we have left plenty of workamping jobs early because of seemingly rediculus situations, be we stuck this one out due to the managers (puppet rulers who are very nice), we having already bought Denver concert tickets, and because there was plenty of prospecting opportunities in WY this summer. We have been extended the offer to come back her next summer, but am holding back until we exhaust all potential offers in the Colorado area, etc.

Yesterday we ran 5 buckets of 1/2" classified through our 30" sluice ... was a bit afraid I was sending to much cloudy water down stream (was a bit of clay in our classifieds) until we walked down to see 3 large high bankers running at the same time within 75 feet of each other. This morning I classified our heavies into 20, 30, & 40+ mesh in order to run in my Blue Wheel tomorrow, there was so much mica in the clay that we could have made a sequin dress! Tomorrow I will see if we have any color in our fines, it would be a great end to the weekend if we did.

This coming weekend we hope to collect a few samples Sunday & Monday in Colorado after the concert Saturday, been a couple years since we prospected there.
