Hello everyone Iam new to this forum and gold prospecting in general but just bought a bunch of gear and live in canon city CO, was looking for a little help in the search of ether a good ghost town for my new ATgold or a good sluice area for this time year for my new Keene A52? Plan on joining the CP yearly once I recover from the 1300 spent on gear! Thanks in advance really like reading some of these posts.

Up on Clear creek above tunnel 3 that claim begins at Elk creek's dump in and goes upstream for a mile rather than downstream. Great chances of finding some nice colors up there folks, have a great time and don't forget the cameras.
