panning buddy wanted Options

[fenixsmom]

Hey there everyone. I'm just starting out my addiction to gold panning. I live in the Golden area and am looking for anyone who would want to join in local areas. I'm not looking to invite myself to someone's claim or dig after their "glory holes". I'm just looking for new friends to to go with my new hobby :D I'm currently trying to save up enough money to pay for membership to really saturate myself with like minded individuals! I only know of three local rivers (probably everyone's first rivers). I hope to see you all out there good luck and happy hunting! I'll just be over here ~> lol bye folks!

Set up a crossing point for her up or down stream, if you can..... it will take time, but it is legal as long as you do not interfere with the flow. I have done this using what I
have classified out, but only in short stretches. It is amazing what a few well placed large rocks will do for you - you do not have to even fill the entire 3 feet. the flow will
cut a channel between those rocks, or multiples there of. It takes time, and you can reach across large stretches over a few weeks. Especially if you use 2x6's.

We started on one but shes 87yrs old and very small so it doesn't take much to knock her off her feet, and as mentioned it is now 3' deep and swift so its taking some really big rocks to get it so she can keep good footing, and everyone keeps moving the rocks,
